In the case of SM and D/s the annalogy would be SM is to D/s as engine is to frame both are a part of a larger whole construct but they are not the same thing, and without either of them you have no automobile. I disagree with your analogy. You can't have a car without both parts, but you can certainly engage in S/m without any D/s in the mix and it's still S/m. If I stick 100 clothespin on my breasts, then pierce my nipples just because I like the pain from that, where is the D/s involved? I'm not dominanting anyone, I'm not submitting to anyone.. simply enjoying the sensations of pain which I've created for myself. Now, I might be considered mental because I like doing that.. I might need therapy if I do it and don't like that I'm doing it.. but it's still a sadomasochistic activity. If I throw some ankle cuffs on at the same time, then I've got 3 of the four elements of BDSM and none of them are D/s. Celeste edited: I misread what you wrote.. apologies. Never mind. ::laughs::
