That's a bit like asking whether there were oak trees before we started calling them "oak trees."

Ok, point.  But I hold some optimism for the species and hope that the majority of our ancestors' sexual relationships were consensual.




Lordandmaster -> RE: Rape play fantasies (5/23/2007 12:46:06 AM)

I'm not sure, because I wasn't there, but I think the majority of our ancestors' relationships were of the "I'll accept this because I don't have a choice anyway" variety.

For those that have not had a higher education can you say what you said in another way and who where you answering? as it says you where answering Masque66 but i dont relate what you said to what he said, sorry its just i like to understand things and it anoys me when i can not, and i have no clue what you said in your post


Alright, appreciate the patience.  I think my Common's better tonight.

Basically, I was just saying I felt what he said may have been an over-generalization.  I was also saying I didn't know why he was generalizing about something- I wasn't sure what he was commenting on.  I warned generalizing could be dangerous, though noted it might not be a problem if it was confined to an area where it was true enough.

I'm glad you like understanding things.  Trust me, it's a mutual obsession.  :P




Masque66 -> RE: Rape play fantasies (5/23/2007 1:08:09 AM)

Damn, I'd forgotten all about that.

If I'm understanding right my knowledge on the subject is not greatly detailed, garnered mostly from books and classes.  As such I try to be general rather than assume I can remedy specific cases.

I do have to say we have only been out the trees and walking upright for a very short time.  Civilized for even less.  I find it truely awe inspiring that such concepts as consenual and romance have taken such hold in our collective minds.  We do have a hope as a species yet; maybe not as a culture, but a species.





CuriousLord -> RE: Rape play fantasies (5/23/2007 1:29:28 AM)

I'm still wondering how many hundreds of years it will be until consent is a moot point again.

People think that a circumstantial happening necessitates such a happening as being infalliable progress.  Or maybe the idea of consentual interactions just sounds appealing.

Myself, I doubt it will last.

we rarely in good conscienc advise those we care for to seek truth for it is a sharp blade with no hilt, it cuts all who handle it, too often we forget suffering is the only path to enlightenment

Not sure any professional is any real help to overcome the emotional impact of any kind of abuse.
People in the lifestyle are.
The people I have talked to and met have given me the strength to get over a lifetime of a abuse.
You have helped me heal.
We all have a story.
It's being able to share it with people that care that helps.
We don't have to have a psychology degree to understand another person's need.
We just have to want to.

I think that is an inaccurate and even irresponsible thing to say. As a former counselor I can relate many, many instances where people have benefitted from professional counseling and therapy. And as a submissive who has been active in this "lifestyle" for a lot of years I can also relate many instances where Dominants who were well meaning but otherwise uneducated in dealing with past traumas have done far more damage than good. I don't discount the positive impact a supportive partner can have, but D/s, M/s and BDSM are not substitutes for therapy or other professional mental health care.
