ORIGINAL: MasterWilliam55 Many folks new to this have not yet learned what truly is a hard limit for them. Some of these limits are obvious and most of the community likely shares them. Some limits are labelled as hard limits based on a lack of understanding. Some activities many would call disgusting and some very dangerous. Folks labeled these also as hard limits for themselves. But I can't count on how many times I've witnessed a hard limit turn into a desired activity. A Dom leads, not pushes, his submissve to grow and try new things. Through discussions with his sub and a little prompting new activities are either explored or not. If she/he still wants to consider an activity as off limits then he is duty bound to respect that. 20 years ago age play was a hard limit for me. It appeared to mirror pedophilia. Once I understood the dynamics behind it, I began to appreciate why some people were attracted to it. It ceased to be a hard limit for me and I'm now an experienced Daddy/Dom. I'm sure many can tell of similar changes in their thinking as they were exposed to activities or began to understand what was behind them. Oral sex was a hard limit for many people in the 50's. Now it's a national pastime. Many many people are changing their minds regarding anal sex, cutting, branding etc. The phrase "hard limits" is often misused. As a Dom I reserve the right to challange my submissive. If after prompting and some experimentation an activity remains on her "Hard List" then so be it. But if it's a notional limit, I'll find that out. thank you for that Master William. i only want to keep the hard limits that are for my protection. i understand that my Dom wants to push me to the edge in every other way and i know that this will help me, even when i'm finding it very hard
