Pulls out my big book of acronyms... okay actually its not that big [;)] SSC - Safe, Sane & Consensual = popular mantra in the lifestyle, represents philosophy of safe play. RACK - Risk Aware Consensual Kink = newer philosopy, espouses being aware of the risks involved in what we do and taking responsibility for it. More of a "do as though wilt" philosopy. PE - Power Exchange = basic dynamic in D/s and M/s relationships, exchange of control and power TPE - Total Power Exchange = extreme form of PE sought by some where the submissive gives up total control over themselves and their life. Sometimes considered the defining difference between subs and slaves (also sometimes hotly debated). D/s - Domination / submission = refers either to the relationship side of BDSM in this lifestyle, or to Dom / sub relationships specifically. M/s - Master / slave = refers to the Master / slave version of the D/s relationship. DD/bg - DaddyDom / babygirl = A variety on D/s that includes the role of the dominant as "daddy" and the submissive as his "girl"... not necessarily age play, sometimes considered a "kinder, gentler" form of D/s. Also sometimes hotly debated. WIIWD - What It Is We Do = short cut for those talking about the things we do in this lifestyle.
