Most people assume that if it's out of the standard bdsm racket, it's no different than vanillas. Which is a big mistake considering that they are so busy negotiating whether floggers can be used WITH needles, that they don't think to go over financial or legal trusts of property, or medical situations. This sort of issue tends to get raised mostly on the "limits" discussion- people who accept authority from another only to find out that their real limits on things are completely off the charts from what they assumed. What I find more important than making lists of "ok" and "not ok" is simply understand perspectives and desires. If you know a persons philosophy on things, if you know their ideas and stances and how they work through issues- then it doesn't matter what you remember to put on the list or not, you'll know how to work through it together. The great majority of people in the scene tend to want standard vanilla relationships with a bit of authority dynamic thrown in them, so "out there kinks" don't come up and don't need to. But the fact is, if you're really into something or want to cover something that's considered outside the norm, it should definitely at least be brought up.
