The definition of "breaking" is as personal and varied as the two people involved, like a lot of S&M and "lifestyle" terms. I am a big fan of breaking my subs, but of course, that's my definition of breaking. And when they are broken, they don't stay broken, it's a momentary state of mind/body/existence. It's like getting a man drunk; he's not drunk forever, he's just drunk at that time. He goes back to "normal" and we both can look back and it and go "wow," and it does not impact my perception or respect for him. If anything, I admire him for his willingness to ...well, allow himself to get that drunk and leave himself in my care during the time of intense vulnerability. So what is "breaking" -- to me, anyway-- ? In my definition, it's the moment where a man is clearly surrendering to acts that he absolutely would never submit to, were it not for the slow process of stripping down his defenses and my persuasion as his femdom and/or lover. It's when he's actively doing - or even begging to do - those acts that were not really conceivable to him. I'm not talking about breaking hard limits, I'm talking about bending and pushing lines of resistance and bringing down barriers. It's when he's openly showing a very naked, helpless, vulnerable side of himself that even he can't really get his head around or reconcile, and it becomes a very surreal, "Is this really happening" moment. For a lot of men, this includes things like crying (if he rarely cries), or submitting to/begging for an act that he finds horrific, or having his ego or pride authentically reduced to barely anything because of my impact on him. Since it varies from man to man, I can't just point to an act and say, "Oh, it's when I do this and he does that." It's very, very personal and it's very intimate. It doesn't come around all the time -- the opportunity and the right guy -- so I treasure it when it does. Akasha
