ORIGINAL: JumpingJax There has to be limits, there has to be a line some where that you just don't cross? I have to question the concept of cutting. Besides have an inherent risk to it, why would you want to do it to another human being? I know cutting, sadly appears to be more main stream. But with the sound of some of these Dom's I hear, I can't help but wonder if their subs lives mean anything to them? If Murder was legal, I have no doubt their would be subs out there being killed in the name of sexual pleasure. Hell I'm sure it is happening some where. Sick, and sad. There -is- a limit. It is at the point where a person decides that xhe does not want to do X. I can speak here as a person with some foundation in "open limits" relationships (what some folks may call TPE, no-holds barred, or total submission relationships). Even as the D-type entering into one of these relationships, after -literally- years of getting to that point with the person, during our House's "no-fault transition" (where either party can decide that the progression isn't a good fit), I've had people beg to be heard, and explain that they have realized, now that they're completely subject, that they just can't do it. Hey, it's good to know that, right? It's also good to know that people change. None of even our TPE servants is asked to promise the rest of hir -life- to us... xhe yields hir life, yes -- but our contract states that it is for as long as xhe feels compelled to yield hirself to our direction. Some people have different limits. I may not like their limits, but that doesn't make them wrong. What two or more grown adults agree to, between them, where no person outside of their relationship is injured by the practice, I have no business judging, because I cannot be inside their heads and know what they are thinking and feeling. I can take responsibility for those who yield up their lives to me, and I can abide by my own commitments, responsibilities, and to the things that speak to my own nature. I can help where I am asked to interfere, and even have obtained the training to be pretty good at it a lot of the time... but I find it ethically reprehensible to second-guess another person's free will, so I will not do so -- not for any promise or external attempt at guilt waved under my nose.
