I don't understand why so many are jumping all over the OP. Body mods such as piercings and tats are so common these days that they hardly bear mentioning. I saw no one 'jumping all over' the OP. I saw people answering his question. Some said yes, some said yes to some things and no to others, and some said no. Unsurprising when the questions were 'would you?' and 'how far would you go?' As for tats and piercings, the fact that they are more common now than in the past doesn't mean that they are universally accepted. Such things can still affect one's career, depending on their chosen field and the placement of said tat or piercing. Try interviewing at a law firm with 15 holes in your face, getting a job in a religious school with a tat that says 'His Slut" on the back of your hand, or showing up for work at a bank wearing 10g barbells through your nipples (better bring the duct tape) quote:
As for surgery for weight loss or breast augmentation- if you are owned, in a long-term relationship, what's the problem? Speaking only for myself, there are a couple of problems. One is that I scar easily and excessively, even when the surgery is done by a plastic surgeon. The other is that I react very badly to the antagonists used to counter general anesthetics. I did not choose these things, they are merely part of me as a person. I know that plastic surgery is regarded by many as 'no big deal' these days... but for some of us, any surgery is quite a big deal. This is something to be discussed before a relationship and dynamic are entered into, IMO. quote:
If You truly have given your power and will over to your owner, and a decision is made, then the decision is made. If you didn't trust his/her judgement, would you be there for the long haul in the first place? Sometimes I feel that too many people here are playing at power exchange, and don't have the balls to live it. This surprised me, coming from you. First off, the question was asked of both subs and slaves, inviting a variety of responses from people in various dynamics. The above smacks unpleasantly of 'one twue way' to me, suggesting that power exchange is either 'no limits' TPE or nothing. That is not the case. There are nearly as many dynamics out there as there are people living WIIWD, as there is no one way that is better than another. There is only what works for a given couple, partnership, or household. As for 'balls', mine are right where they should be. I have hard limits, and the 'balls' to not allow something that damages me as a person for the sake of a relationship. That took a lot of work on my part, and I have no intention of giving it up now. If that means that I am 'playing' at power exchange, by all means sign me up for the fakes list! I find it hilarious that on the one hand, s-types are told that they are always ultimately responsible for their own well-being; while on the other hand, they are told that not giving themselves totally to their Dom in all ways means that they are 'playing' at being submissive. No wonder so many new folks are confused!
