quote: ORIGINAL: KnightofMists First... one can't be aware of all risks. All one can do is attempt make a reasonable effort to be aware of them. Second... what one will consider as risky another would consider as not. Third... when on attends a party ... one is making a decision to consent to anything and everything that is within the rules.. risks and all. You are clearly not aware of all that will occur before you attend.... and as such can't be aware of all the risks as result. But.. if you attend... you are accepting risks.... even risks you are unaware of. Secondly, you just might be at risk of those that break a rule or two. I think it would be reasonable stupid not be aware that some might break a rule or two. But... one should be reasonable assured that those running the party will deal with the rule breakers post haste. Agreed, agreed, and good point yes all of that needs to be taken into consideration as well when assessing risk. Personally I think you should be aware of what it is possible to be aware of in advance, and be prepared for everything else. quote: I personally find it amusing how one will be derogatory towards those that take what is preceived as greater risks than oneself would take. But, the reality is... there are somethings I will not risk not because it can't be done and enjoyed... but because my skills or situation is such that I can't or couldn't deal or accept the consequences if the risk became a reality. Some peoople can deal and accept those consequences and hats off to them. But, that doesn't make them better or dumber than me for the risks some take. Definitely. I might not personally want to go sky diving myself, but I don't knock those who wish to. It's their choice, their risk, if they know the score and they choose to engage, more power to them. However, keeping with the sky diving analogy, if someone wishes to go sky diving without a parachute then yes I would call them a few derogatory terms along the lines of 'You're a bloody idiot' (no pun intended) [:)]

quote: ORIGINAL: SimplyMichael KoM Its the "you are a moron" if you drive slower than me and "your nuts" if you drive faster syndrome. Can't win for trying. Personally I do what I feel I have to do in order to keep myself, and those participating with/around me safe, and leave it up to everyone else to decide how they wish to do things. Go slow, pick up speed, not get behind the wheel of the car at all, and so on. The only time I am going to have an issue with the way someone's driving is if they start careening all over the road, and are trying to tell/encourage others to do the same.

I must admit, whilst bloodplay et al has always been a strong interest of mine, I've found myself becoming more, and more attracted to it because of certain physical limitations I now have. On the receiving end, because of a condition I've developed, about the only type of stimulus that is even remotely satisfying for me to receive is needleplay or cutting, within limits - spanking, flogging, whips, crops etc etc are all out. And from a Top point of view, I sometimes have trouble controlling the finer motor movements of my hands due to peripheral neuropathy. Even if I weren't admittedly way out of practice, I don't know if I could even physically wield a flogger or a whip (to name just two examples) on someone. Sometimes bloodplay, and the drawing of blood just seems like maximum reward for minimum effort to to me - as in it seems a lot easier from a physical point of view to run a blade across someone's skin, than it does to wield a flogger and try and land strokes. Just my thoughts/own experience of course. [:)]

I don't find it amusing when someone is taking risks with needles or blood play. The guy who jabs his finger whilst piercing a girl he's just met but decides its better not to mention it. The girl who sits with ignorant bliss swooning over all those intricate piercings and unaware that she may well of just been given the black seed. I may be an interfering old moron but when I witnessed that happen I went straight over to both of them and told them that he was bleeding under his glove. He didn't consider it a risk. 'Its ok Im clean he told her'. She on the other hand considered it too much of a risk and took herself off to A&E (he refused to go!) I refuse to walk by such things and if someone is blatantly taking risks that could involve death in months or years to come, then Ill not drive by and just role my eyes. People who take uneducated risks with blood play are the morons but even morons don't deserve the death sentence.

Your approach is absolutely in line with mine when it comes to this. [:)] I've actually sort out advice from a kink friendly medical professional, regarding safety concerns with bloodplay (if and when I do get a chance to play with a partner), because I want to be as prepared/educated as possible. I'd actually really like to do the sort of courses/training that professional body piercer's do in regards to blood borne pathogens et al as well. I think this is one area where you can never have enough knowledge. Like I said before, for me personally, being this 'strict' about preparedness, and safety, and so on, doesn't in anyway detract from a scene (or the idea of one), it enhances it. I find the idea of approaching this sort of play with a high level of respect, tinged with a healthy dose of awe, heightens my senses in a good way. [:)]

I have to agree with this too. I'd rather someone who knows what they are talking about come over and quietly tell me if I am doing something wrong or even if it isn't vital get hold of me after and explain how I could have done it more safely than say nothing and let me carry on in blissful ignorance.
