Bows can be so pretty, but ribbons don’t always stand for joy. Something seemingly delicate and frail can hold so much power if placed on a pedestal. Holding together important gifts and garments ribbons can bind and prevent things from unravelling and falling apart. Ribbons can carry meaning, symbolic signs of hope or cut when […]
The Human Mind on BDSM
For this assignment, I read four articles about BDSM and the psychology behind it. All four of them focused on the effects of what it is like to be in a BDSM relationship. Psychologytoday.com starts with the question by asking “Are they sick?” and going into an explanation of how Freud’s psychology would view it as […]
Pretty cocky
It’s a dilemma many submissives face, how much of their personality to let shine through, how much control is too much control to asset within a D/s negotiation.

Calming the farm

Let’s get real
Say what you mean because it’s not a game. Although it may seem as though you are playing the role by communicating in the style you see as appropriate, you are truly playing a role. It is true that within power exchange, there is protocol that determines the words, the titles, and the format, but […]
