RL, I just wanted to add that although I dislike pain and find it an immediate turn off, spankings to me aren't painful. They're a distinctly different sensation. In the same manner a moderate amount of force on a wooden dowel to the soles of my feet isn't felt as painful, that to me is a truly great foot massage.

Sometimes parts of the body don't interpret things as painful, oddly enough.

New issue that I'm tackling/exporing in developing my spiritual path and general health, and I am curious about your ideas: Allowing yourself to be stuck on your body (or other practices), even if SSC, etc., it not a positive experience for your body and spirit -- i.e., it is objectively negative, and therefore can/will injure your overall health and well-being.


I think it can be both even in the same relationship.  Depending on what is happening and why, it has been both for me.

I tend to judge my overall well-being by the resentment levels I endure, and as they are few and far between, I think the drink, drugs and cigarettes are far more likely to affect it :)

@RaspberryLemon-

Thanks for your informative response.  I intend to take some time to do some research on this issue. 

All who think i just need a good spanking or the like, thanks for Your input, too...lol.  I do appreciate all of your responses.  BTW, i have discussed my feelings with my "training" Dom and W/we are discussing/working around my concerns...

@ Arpig -

i know that the idea is not the norm and i have no personal knowledge, yet, of any traditional science yet to back it up.  Apparently there is some science behind it, which i will be checking into...thanks for your response.

I'm not a psychiatrist, but I believe it's called Reaction-Formation. I've heard it called sublimation, but what you describe doesn't fit the description of sublimation found here: http://www.psychpage.com/learning/library2/counseling/defenses.html
