I found the article interesting and well arranged.  I actually just sent it to a Dom I have been talking with.  Thought he might find it interesting

THANK YOU TPE... you are quite correct in your assertion regarding BPD.  I have many years of working in a clinical setting with both adults and juveniles with this disorder.  Yes, they are quite convincing and can be very dangerous to one's reputation.

It has absolutely NADA to do with the lifestyle and everything to do with environmental, organic,  etc etc..

Seems people are so quick to jump on the band wagon and claim it's related some how to BDSM.  THIS is NOT.

In fact, it was determined years ago that the male diagnosis for the same set of presenting criteria was "sociopath"  while the female version was "BPD". 

That has since changed just like people who participated in any form of BDSM were diagnosed with an "abnormal" personality disorder.

Times have changed folks... please be careful of all encompassing generalizations.

and

http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=Borderline+Personality+Character+Disorder&fr=yfp-t-501&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8&vc=&fp_ip=AU

best to check the DSM criteria online, really.  Gold diggers and thieves I can deal with.  THESE nutbags?  No.  THEY are the real danger  as you'll find if you look this stuff up, because of the history of the term/diagnostic classification:

It's a term coined because basically women can be socially and sexually as sociopathic as men, they just play that out in different ways.  But back in the 1950's, no-one had the guts to say women could "be that messed up", so they said "Borderline psychotic" instead, which later became "Borderline Personality Character Disorder".

And if you look this stuff up, you'll find that at least one in ten women in scenes like this fall into some part of that spectrum, AT LEAST.  Which is why it is such a touchy subject.

But if women should be warned of male sexual sociopaths, then fair is fair and men (and bi/queer women) should be warned off THESE psychobunnies as well.

Happy New Year.


You have no idea, my friend.  My mother and ex wife are both borederline.  Unfortunately, I never even heard of it until a couple of years after I left my ex.  I was directed to a web page about it by a friend who wanted to know if I thought it applied to a mutual aquaintance of ours.  As I read, my jaw started to drop, and kept right on going, as they described my marriage down to the slightest detail.  I lost my family, my friends, my entire social life.  One of the worst parts of BPD, is not only are you the victim of the person who has it, but NO ONE believes you  And they make sure they spread their distorted world view to everyone they know.  Once I realised what she was, I joined a victim's support group for awhile, and it was just amazing to hear how many people have gone through what I did.  BPD has nothing to do with bdsm, but it sure as hell can destroy your life.
