Original: DesFIP If I were forced to inflict pain on someone else, even though they enjoyed it, it would be a violation of my moral stance. I don't hurt people deliberately, ever. Now, please explain this to me. You think that hurting people deliberately even if they enjoy it is unethical. If you think that it is unethical in your case, this must also be unethical in anyone else's case, because under one single ethical system (your, in this case) - everyone is judged by the same standard. So by your own ethical system - it is unethical to hurt other people deliberately. Do you realize that you are constantly in relationships with people who have completely different ethical system than your own? Do you realize that you think that your partners are immoral? Do you realize that you are submitting to immoral people (by your own definition)? Almost everyone would say that they would never ever submit to someone that they think is unethical! You seem to be an exception! There are only 2 possible solutions to this problem: A) You really think that your partners are unethical because they hurt other people deliberately, however, for you it is acceptable to be in a relationship with unethical people. B) You use different ethical standards for different people. So if YOU hurt someone deliberately - this is unethical. And if YOUR PARTNER hurts you deliberately, this is not unethical. Using different ethical systems for different people shows that you think that some people are inherently more worthy and have more dignity than others. Either Masters have the right to hurt ANYONE (because they are more worthy), or it is acceptable to hurt SLAVES but not others (because slaves are less worthy). Try to demant me. I would really like it. Your strong rebuttal would actually give me the hope that I am wrong. I would LOVE if I was wrong on this issue.
