This may sound harsh, but I'm a firm believer in "social Darwinism" and personal responsibility. If someone is stupid enough to get involved with someone who clearly states what they are about (and that profile goes totally against all held notions of common sense, mutual desire, and what someone is looking for in a relationship), then the person responding to the personal ad has volunteered for the consequences.
Hello, Aluminum extension ladders have warning labels telling you not to use them around electrical wires. Propping one up on the power pole is a BAD IDEA. If you are dumb enough to do it, do NOT blame the ladder company when you get electrocuted. By the same token, if a potential partner flat out warns you in their profile that they will take your property, degrade, abuse, torture or otherwise harm you, without regard for your care, condition, needs and desires, helloooooo, wtf are you doing even responding to them???
If, on the other hand, it sounds like your idea of heaven, who am I to tell you not to?
But do not come crying that you were "abused". You weren't abused, you volunteered for the treatment by responding to the ad. Accept YOUR freaking responsibility for signing on for what happens. Negotiate, communicate, examine, and research BEFORE getting involved. Letting your hormones and gonads get you into a terrible situation isn't the problem of the one advertising up front what they are going to do, it's YOURS for thinking they were kidding.
YIK,
