ORIGINAL: IrishMist quote:
Anybody who doesn't have limits doesn't usually have good negotiation skills, either. Now, on to this. I thought about this since you first posted it, trying to find out why I had such a strong desire to state that it was not true. I found the answer, and it actually took another statement from someone else to help me understand it. I think, for me, it's like NV said quote:
When I see people adamant about Limits or No Limits, to the point of getting emotional or angry about it, I think they're holding tight to a belief they *have* to have, because they don't know how to process believing otherwise it's a challenge to my own belief system, so the defensive response was really strong. I have to admit, those two statement ya'll made, have probably got me thinking more than anything else that was said on this thread. But, those two statements, also, opened up a whole new way of looking at things for me. Thankyou both. I'm glad it helped you, even though I seem to be in the minority in the statement. Like Jeff was saying in response to My earlier comment, part of it has to do with a different frame of reference. Those who don't play casually or don't have play included in the beginning of their relationships because they are doing the vanilla foundation first probably aren't going to see it the same way. On the other hand, I've already got the relationship gig locked up. I do engage in casual S/m and kink is where My first interest lies. If I'm going to a play party, chances are that I'm going to have several options of people to play with and some that I already have played with before. (More often than not, people who plan on being at the same event will have asked about playing prior to the party, itself.) Not really the venue for a no limits situation or where the phrase even comes up.
