A different classification - 6/7/2006 1:32:10 AM

Status: offline 		Because of the slightly odd attitude some cultures have towards sexual activities, I think we need to re-examine how we define ourselves.

Personally, I feel that, from the point of view of subs/slaves especially, BDSM isn't a sexual activity - it's a sport, in some cases an extreme sport.

Now, there's a lot of advantages to this: sports are regarded as healthy, challenging physical fun; they make cool TV ads about them; sports stars get sponsorships (the mind boggles - maybe leather goods makers could sponsor me?); you win cool trophies and things; and you can discuss them openly with your family and friends.

To persuade people that we're a sport, here's some proofs:

* There's lots of physical activity

* There's thrills and excitement

* A degree of physical risk

* Terms like 'scoring' and 'coming first' are used

* There's a rush of adrenalin

* The occasional physical injury

And, let's face it, if ballroom dancing can call itself a sport - how about us? 

I'm imagining the sports shows on TV if BDSM was included in the coverage.... that'd beat watching the footy, that's for sure!

Lets hope that they would find commentators who knew something about the subject ...  unlike those in ballroom dancing!!!

I don't think I'd trust a Dom with no self-control, and access to crocodiles.

Will there be trophies or medals involved?

There are lots of types of kinks that are a lot more like chess- not strenuous physically, not a lot of movement, not a lot of physical contact, not adrenaline rushes...more mental and intense competition sort of thing.

And since people can be into it with any degree of interest or time, I see it as more of a hobby.

Can't it be both?  I enjoy playing games in my personal relationships.
