KSControl -> RE: "Protected "submissive (6/18/2006 11:07:58 PM)

The whole 'Protected' thing is more of an internet construct than anything. The bottom line, however, seems to be that she didn't want the floggings, etc., and, perhaps not understanding fully that bdsm is consentual, and no one is going to flog or spank her unless she consents to it, she sought out someone to say no for her. Some people simply don't know how to say 'no' for themselves, unfortunately, and seem to need someone else to do it for them. Is that 'wrong'? Well, in my opinion, it's unnecessary, but not wrong. It's not my place to tell someone else how to live her life. If she didn't want to have to deal with the potential of several people trying to put her in a position where she was uncomfortable, then she may have felt that was her best, or only, option. She did what she thought she needed to do in order to be able to attend without being put in an uncomfortable position. At least, that's what it seems like from my perspective.
