When I was pro subbing and later in club demos I used to take singletails in silence, usually several hundred in one session or with a short break.
I put it down to relaxing into it to control the pain......and to my 'stiff upper lip' upbringing where it was not the done thing to display emotion.

I wonder, how do stoic subs do it? Is it a matter of "zoning out" or are they just freaking tough as nails?


I guess you would label me a stoic sub.  I am not a masochist, but I have a very high pain threshold.  I don't react to pain.  It is a matter of personal pride for me.  I can't completely control the flinching reaction, but I can stop just about everything else.  No matter what you do to me, I won't yell or give any sign of discomfort (even though it may hurt like hell).

I have been with several Dommes who expected/desired a reaction from me, so I have learned to fake it (Oh come on ladies, you know that you fake things too if it will please your partner).  But in reality, it is nearly impossible to get me to yell or show signs of pain.

Different people process different ways: Jeff accepts, Kalik screams, Roch is stoic. Note, I made a point of not using just subs for that list. Academy actually said it very well.

"Some can actually take alot of pain and the reasons varies. Thicker skin, less sensitive nerves, numbness, enjoying the pain, fear or lack of, accustomed to pain, etc."

Me? I can't even begin to process pain if I can't express it. Give me something to bite down on, pad the walls, and just for your own protection, I suggest earplugs. Same goes for processing pleasure. :)

i'm not a stoic sub at all. "be still and be quiet" is one of the most difficult "in scene" orders i have ever gotten. =p i have a smidge of experience watching others at parties and i have to say, i think it's an even spread. one thing i will say, though, is that i've noticed most of the male bottoms/subs i've watched have been pretty quiet.
i guess it's just a difference of how people process things.

When I'm subbing, my reactions tend to vary depending on who I'm subbing for - if the Dom is looking for a reaction from me, I react. If they really just want to inflict without regard for my situation, I'll be stoic...it just really depends on what they want. Of course, this presupposes that we have actually *talked* about what they want - kind of a wacky notion, I know.

To me pain is just another part of life. I endured 7 floggers in my first outing and completely was in subspace. The Mistress implying the flogging said I was growling enuf others turned to watch...I wasn't tied down but I did enjoy it.
the last relationship I was in, was considerably painful on different accounts on my part and my Master's hand.. I've lost feeling in my nipples from piercing them 3 times..didn't flinch once. Taken a 1" paddle to my ass 8 times before he quit..I was bleeding and bruised for 2 weeks. Cried but didn't ever scream out in pain. Im not made of nails at all, going to the doctor and if a needle is present I will pass out... just freaking weird to me.

I was always really good at taking pain... then I met my Owner.
I got through labor when the epidual didn't work~ no problem.
I got through my appendix rupturing without a single yelp, just a few moans. I shoulda been more vocal on that one
Someone tossed me in a pool once, except they missed, and I landed half in the water, and half on concrete~ I walked around for three days with a broken rib because I figured it was better than telling my mom I had to go to the Dr. I was young!
I was paddled, and cropped and all the rest by different me when I started this exploration and never screamed or cried. I also have a decent pain tolerance, as an example, a flogger, unless made of rubber, doesn't feel at all painful to me. And I find the bite of a single tail to be absolutely delicously erotic.

It all goes back to being a kid and having a brother who was a lot older than me. I was a dare devil, he accomodated, I'd get hurt, we'd freak out that we'd get in trouble, so I learned how to breathe through it and make like it was fine! Actually, I'd hold my breath!

Pain, to me, was like a musical symphony that had a crescendo. I could get inside it, I could examine every little bit of it and I could find that split second when it begins to subside. All pain is that way~ it has a moment, a peak, and then it begins to slowly, steadily decline. I'd hold my breath and scrutinize it, searching for that moment, once discovered, I'd breathe again.

My Owner though knows how to make it so intense that I can't process. He knows how I react. He knows that he has to make it hurt so unbearably that it's a bomb going off, ricocheting through out my body with such intensity I can't search it... I have to scream and cry just to feel like I've given it breadth and room to grow and reach its crescendo. He doesn't allow the time to process, unless it is what appeals to him at that time. He plays me... sometimes he wants me to be an instantaneous wreck and it's delivered with such force that it erupts in me and I can't do anything but scream. Other times, he plays me slowly, enjoying his own build up of making it more intense, watching me struggle more and more to find the peak, until he's ready for the moment~ the moment he turns me into a screaming, writhing, begging wreck. The blows are delivered with amazing force and piled on top of one another with out any time to register anything in between. He is a sadist, and that's what he wants to see, he wants me screaming, and crying, with unbearable pain, that's what gets him off.

I haven't really ever done subspace. I don't enjoy pain. I simply learned how to process. I had a lot of people ask me how I could "take it." I tried to explain that it was something you got underneath, and examined, but most people don't seem to get that... or if they do, they also are able to do subspace etc... I was always stuck in the middle... procees, yes, enjoy, no.
The first time my Owner made the pain so intense it radiated through me with such force that I lost all control over it~ I thought, thank God, finally!

I'm pretty quiet - because I enjoy the experience of intense sensations (better known as pain) and if I'm crying/screaming/thrashing around, I miss some of the - more delicate aspects of the experience. I gasp, I moan softly, I growl - but most of my reactions are reflected in the movement of my body, not the volume of my vocal cords.
