ORIGINAL: DesFIP I have lenses implanted in both eyes, the last thing he would do is something that carries the risk of blindness for me. It seems really simple, but between the ear drums and the eyes, there's a huge risk of danger in this. Especially with a smaller sub and a dom with bigger hands. Des i agree wholeheartedly. However, i attended a face slapping demo put on by NELA and there are safe ways to do it....if the slapee has no health issues that preclude it...and some of those would be any issues with the person's eyes or ears... Accidents do happen...and this thread will go the way they all have...and i am in no way at all diminishing the seriousness of safety...but as with almost every single SM related activity, there are safety concerns. And any prior health issues would have to be taken into account. And, its not a full on, shoulder to elbow to wrist to hand kind of slap that would be more associated with a fight or uncontrolled situation. The sub has to know its coming...has to....in order to not move out of the way instinctively and thus putting self at risk...just as in a flogging or whipping, unexpected movement is to be avoided. The person doing the slapping has to know for a fact that the sub can take that emotionally as well as physically....its the same with any other thing. Relatively speaking, its safer than a lot of things and more dangerous or risky than others...but it definitely has its purpose and it really does serve to bring me right into my partner...instantly. Very intimate and it also brings up all sorts of fun feelings... In general i wouldnt do this sort of thing with someone i didnt know very very well for exactly those safety reasons...but in my current situations, i can tell when a slap is coming, if it is, and i can prepare myself for it. general disclaimer...this is just me...my opinion...my experience with things.
