Allow me to add my cup... For anyone who is wondering how they feel about it, Shogun is the thing to see. The TV miniseries with Chamberlain, Mifune, Rhys-Davies, etc. There is a scene in there which features it, devoid of any overtones of sexuality, but including some overtones of power. I would say dominance, but I'd be shot down for the honesty. A lot can be said about that scene, and how it ties in with various versions of the kink, but that would just add preconceptions to the experience of the scene. Just watch it, and ask yourself "how would I feel if I were the one on the ground there?" Of course, there's other angles it doesn't cover. Fun. Oaths. Utility. Bonding. Baptism. Catharsis. Intimacy. Territory. Taboos. Khthonism. But most of those will either appear self-evident in time, or are for other reasons probably best left for when you both have some degree of experience with it, including some time to get accustomed to it and reflecting on how you feel about it. Health, al-Aswad.
