I noticed in the thread about the meaning of slut, you seemed to argue pretty hard that the word slut can have multiple meanings and that people can even subjectively define those meanings.

In light of that, I don't quite understand why your so hard pressed to make sure we all agree on your meaning and understanding of BDSM V.S. DS.

let me explain it to you.

i am arguing the exact fucking same point.

i am not the one trying to insist that bdsm has a narrow meaning that doesn't fucking include d/s. i am arguing for the broader, more flexible interpretation. just as i argued in the slut thread that the word slut meant more than just a promiscuous woman, i am arguing here that bdsm, and thus the bdsm lifestyle, is an umbrella term that covers all these activities.

clear on it now sugarplum?

Hannah id love to see you in about 10 years when you loose the chip on your shoulder, and realize you can be wrong, and that just because you 100 percent believe 100 percent you cant be.

quote:

My bdsm partners are just that all we do is bdsm, bondage, discipline, sadism or masochism.

quote:

In one thread, I see you argueing that people should be allowed to define words how they see fit and in this thread I see you argueing about how people who don't define themselves under your broader definition are wrong.

It might be a good idea to take it down a notch, while I catch up. While the sweet little names you all are calling one another aren't always seen as an attack, I doubt they are really meant in a sweetheart kind of way. Lighten up please.

So what your saying is its okay when you decide to change the definition of a word to suit yourself but if others dont agree to your change they must be wrong

quote:

Actually...what ever she would say, I'd do the exact opposite.

quote:

And I posted several current links that differ from your defined definition. I also have several published books that you can read that describe it without the d/s

I'm fairly convinced my parents couldn't have told you what BDSM was if you put a gun to their heads. They didn't do all the kinky things or have all the seemingly necessary trappings "lifestyle" devotees do. They just loved each other with everything they had. He was the wage earner, she was a housewife and mother. They both wanted it that way. She submitted to him in everyway and he honored her in every way. I learned so much about submission from her. They were the real deal, baby, whatever trumped up label you want to put on it. It worked for 33 years until my Dad passed.

Bottom line is that you can appear to live a "lifestyle" but have the freedom to not identify it as such. It can simply be your way - the way that works best for you...........luci

This is my experience too except my parents lasted 40 years until my mom died.

On a side note....Hannah can stomp her feet and say fuck and twatwaffle all she wants to try and convince people that she's right, but that don't make it so.
