cravinspankin -> From "Ick" to "oh yeah" (11/28/2005 11:46:29 PM)
As i delve further into this D/s, bdsm lifestyle, i find there are things that even a few short months ago were on my "no fricken way (hard limits)* list. But after actually experiencing them, find that i enjoy them, dependent, of course, upon my partner. Among them: canes, rimming. Other things.. i've never tried, and have never desired to do so, but find that i might try with one certain Dom i'm getting to know. I wonder.. what are some of the things that you once thought were disgusting or completely unappealing... Until you tried them, but have since found you enjoy it??

its called trust and removing barriers through trust...its quite nice huh?

I think that this is what happens when someone keeps an open mind... My current GF used to hate having her feet even looked at; she thought that they were ugly, and couldn't imagine anyone wanting to do with them. She is 37 and she had never even had a pedicure! After months of carefull orchestration and starting slowly (innocent foot rubs and massages when she came home from work), I have gotten her to the point where not only does she like it when I look at her feet (which gives me something of a "rise" every time) but she thoroughly enjoys the pedicures, and licks, and kisses that I give them. When having sex, I can tell when she is nearly ready to cum...and will occasionally start licking her toes and tickling her soles with my tongue (something she would have NEVER dreamed of months ago), which sends her absolutely off the deep end in multiple orgsms (particularly if I time it right). Now, she enjoys showing off her constantly maintained pedicured toes, and loves teasing me with them. Virtues of an open mind, and relationships where one can safely try new things !!

quote: ORIGINAL: sweetpettjenny its called trust and removing barriers through trust...its quite nice huh? Well that's certainly a lot of it. But more is just getting over the newness and overwhelming idea of it. The more you are exposed to an idea, the more realistic and understandable it becomes. So simple exposure is what breaks down a lot of the newbies initial freak out "NO WAY YOU ARE COMING NEAR ME WITH THAT!" into "Well ok let me just TRY..." and into "OMG that's amazing please do it again!"

I agree with this totally, LuckyAlbatross because as a person who does memberships for our local BDSM club, I come in contact with many kinky folks, from novice to veteran. Part of my enjoyment is seeing exactly this transition. Fears as this sort are born in our mind and only upon seeing it firsthand do the fears subside and allow the brain to process what is really happening, without all the junk we imagine. Then it isn't so frightening and you can take the next step forward. I went through this myself. Heck, once upon a time just the thought of kneeling and being so wholly vulnerable scared the living bejeezus out of me, much less allowing someone to put me in that position and hit little ole me with something that horses snarl at! (...or whatever horses do. lol ) But once I witnessed it, experienced it...and accepted it, I realised I had never been more excited, fulfilled and had the sense of being home. No way that could be bad. Syn

It is the power, wisdom, technique, style, and approach from the Master that breaks down barriers to take a submissive past thier fears and into the unkown because they know the Master will not allow them to fail. They are not afraid of the act, they are afraid of the results of the act. Therefore when the submissive transfers thier fears to the Master, the Master fills the void with His power. That creates an unbreakable bond, much like an umbilical cord, by which energy passes between the two.

That creates an unbreakable bond, much like an umbilical cord, by which energy passes between the two. And that's all a bit too romantic and one-sided for my tastes. Sure, a good top/dom/master/d-type can go a long way to helping an s-type get beyond boundaries and explore new things. But let's face it, plenty of s-types explore new things all on their own, and want to do things that d-types have no interest in whatsoever. And subs don't allow it to happen because they know "they won't be allowed to fail." Failure is part of the exploring process. D-types are human, they can't promise things like that. If they TRY to promise and then DO fail...well that's why we see so many broken s-types around, because everyone tried to live up to some unrealistic standard and then got REALLY hurt when it didn't work out. S-types trust d-types because they know, WHATEVER happens, it's gonna be ok in the long term, whether a particular scene is completely f-ed up or not. I don't transfer my fears, I deal with them. IMO that's the only way a person actually gets through them- by taking personal responsibility and working through them. And I am not empowered by my dom alone. Many people in my life help me through my fears, and help me in handling them. And it doesn't necessarily build an unbreakable bond. As I said, subs get through fears on their own all the time, subs get through fears by people other than their dominants all the time. And...what about the times that the slaves help the masters through their fears?

quote: "Ick" to "oh yeah" This is how you should be moving forward in the lifestyle. New experiences, a changing of ick to oh yeah. It is good stuff.

quote: ORIGINAL: KatyLied This is how you should be moving forward in the lifestyle. New experiences, a changing of ick to oh yeah. It is good stuff. Of course I'm going to say "yes and no" Sure, it's great to explore, specially as a newbie, and not let your fear of the unknown prevent you from simply enjoying great things. But I dislike the obsession people have with pushing limits, making breaking a limit a goal in itself. To me that loses the focus of the experience and doesn't really add to the relationship. Sometimes limits are just limits. Sometimes it's good to just leave them alone. Sometimes people really are just happy as they are and have no need or desire to "push."

It seems to me that many people accept this idea of expanding limits a little bit too uncritically. I suspect there are plenty of people for whom a contraction of their limits would be a good thing. No one I've talked to in the scene seems to agree with me on that, though.

No one I've talked to in the scene seems to agree with me on that, though. I agree with you. As I just finished posting in another thread. I prefer no-limits relationships where I know the fears and vulnerabilities of the other. It is up to me then to exercise restraint and earn trust by knowing when and where and if to push someone's boundaries and realising that it always come at a cost. - LA

Actually I agree with the pushing of limits thing. Some are hard limits and it's not going to change. But I've experienced things that I once thought I'd find distasteful. I guess the key is communicating between the "maybe" and the "no way'.

LadyHibiscus -> RE: From "Ick" to "oh yeah" (11/29/2005 1:14:07 PM)
I have always been a person who played without a net, essentially, but I've never felt the desire to push someone into new turf unless they wanted to be pushed. If you told me ten years ago some of the things that I accept as not even interesting anymore, I would be very surprised indeed----including some things that had NO appeal for me at all back then, which I really enjoy now. Still, my immovable limits are the same. The few things that turn my stomach still do. I have absolutely no desire to try moving those limits out of the way. If the person I am working with wants to expand his or her horizons, spiffy! I know that I have gotten folks to take a lot more and different than they thought they could, through communication and trust over a period of time. Being open to new ideas helps. F

Over the years there have definitely been a lot of things I didn't think would appeal to me (blood sports via cutting, branding, piercing, golden showers, and rimming off the top of my head). But we grow and we change and there's been things that I knew I wasn't going to enjoy but I've done for him, but by and large the things we've tried I've enjoyed sometimes to my surprise and sometimes to his surprise (that he's enjoyed something as much as he has).
