I'm with those who say bruising is a personal thing related to many personal factors. I don't bruise very easily. When I have in the past it has been from implements like paddles. Although after one session where I ended up with bruises, I didn't really bruise after that even with the paddle. If you are similar to me in that regard, I would not try to get bruises. Your body is not likely to produce them for you no matter how hard you play. And if you are with someone who is used to seeing a lot of bruises from their handiwork, they need to be informed that you don't bruise easily, otherwise play could escalate into unnecessary extremeness as your Dominant and you simply fixate on trying to create bruises instead of just enjoying play. I have had many Dominants comment on how I don't bruise (or what few marks I get seem to disappear even before the evening is through). In other words, I am playing at levels where Dominants are used to seeing bruising, but I don't bruise. I don't think the answer is to simply get more extreme. Certainly for me, being more extreme would not increase the chance of bruising and would probably start to veer into unfun, and possibly dangerous, play for me. Seems pointless. I have never seen bruises as a necessary component or necessary outcome of play (even though I have enjoyed the few times I have bruised). For those of us who don't bruise easily it would be silly to make this a necessary aspect of our BDSM existence. If leaving marks is truly that important to both of you, I would, as another poster suggested, think of alternative ways to mark your body. [sm=2cents.gif]
