ORIGINAL: Kidsphoenixx Whenever anyone ( specifically non-BDSM) asks me about "the lifestyle", my response has always been..." It is NOT based on SEX, that is a just the common general public misconception". Then I go on to spout on about the whole "trust,respect,honesty" bit. But you know what? After 4-odd years, a LOT of reading, observing and a little bit of social "interaction" , it seems to me that whilst it may not be ALL about sex, sex is, more often than not, the bottom line. It's all very well to say "It's whatever the parties involved say it is...and whatever IT is, is ok for those involved", but when you really stand back and look, the majority of the time it IS based on sex. ( Please note, I said majority, NOT all.) The point of this post? Nothing specific really, just a dawning revelation/verification ( for ME). (Edited because "i" only comes before "o" in the alphabet, not in "social" lol) Ever seen Futurama? In particular the episode where Frye starts dating a robot and the Professor plays that robot-sex ed. video? The video goes on this lecture about how all advances of civilization have been just an effort to impress whatever sex you wanted to hump and increase chances of getting laid. I'm inclined to agree with them. Sex is a lot of fun and most people enjoy doing it, for one reason or another. The lifestyle, as a whole, isn't about sex but damn if isn't a strong factor.
