then clearly you got into it via the wrong routes⦠people say things like negotiation, safe wording/safe systems, checklists, pre scripted scenes, and pre decided aftercare ātake the fun awayā but once you get used to it it doesnāt AT ALL and it prevent shit like this from happening.
Yeah those are all boundaries of mine that were not respected in this situation. It is kinda weird and victim blaming to say āthen clearly you got into it via the wrong routesā. There is a problem with consent not being respected in BDSM spaces and people should be able to talk about the harm it causes
i guess i couldāve asked if you tried to instate those boundaries, thatās on me. but in my mind anyone participating in BDSM who lets those boundaries fall off (i get there are reasons this could go awry) even after being with someone for a long time should realize that theyāre not being healthy about it anymore and might be being abused⦠i am sorry you went though that though š
It only took it happening once. I left after it happened once but I am no longer the same person I was before that happened. I was beat so severely, I remember begging them to not hit me as hard and being told to shut up, I used our safe word but that didnāt matter, that made me get hit harder. I was tied up so itās not like I could get up and leave. I remember begging them to stop but you are right I should have realized it wasnāt healthy anymore and left before getting beat
And this is my problem with the BDSM community, it is somehow my fault that my boundaries werenāt respected even tho it happened once. It takes one incident for it to go from being consensual to it being abuse and NO ONE should be told, āin my mind anyone participating in BDSM who lets those boundaries fall offā¦should realize that they arenāt being healthy anymoreā bc it takes it happening ONE TIME. So please stop victim blaming
Oh my god Iām so sorry that happened to you. Thatās genuinely so fucking awful. And youāre right, in BDSM spaces people often let their horny speak before their safety, and itās definitely something that should be talked about. What happened is absolutely not your fault, no amount of āhaving boundariesā couldāve prevented someone from doing what they did. I hope you have healing and peace in your life now š©·
I am doing better now, I just find it important to call out people who victim blame abuse survivors. I have found a lot of ppl in the BDSM community hate when you call out abusive behavior or even talk about your personal experiences with abuse and BDSM bc I have found it gets turned into what number #9 did to me. Like I hate how so many people like #9 consider what happened to me to be my fault
Yeah a lot of people become uncomfortable when you bring up how people can be abused through BDSM. I just think it is important to talk about how it can very easily turn into abuse and if it turns into abuse that the submissive or person being abused via BDSM dynamics is not at fault for being abused. I still participate in BDSM but I will have a conversation about abuse and BDSM and my hard boundaries before doing anything
Like the number of doms who have told me that my boundaries of needing to have a conversation about what is and isnāt okay is too much to ask for and how Iām being dramatic for wanting to have this long conversation is concerning. I have found doms who respect my boundaries and Iāll have fun with them but as a group we need to be able to have these conversations and respect those who want to have hard boundaries
alright, i see your point. i didnāt realize it was a one time instance, i assumed you stayed even after you realized boundaries were slipping. i am a huge supporter of long conversations about boundaries and what is and isnāt ok, and doms being able to negotiate and respect the boundaries of subs. as a sub with pretty specific boundaries myself i get that. i hope youāre doing better now and youāre never in that situation again
Iām rly glad that you can admit that youāre wrong, but your apology was still based on a really flawed viewpoint. If it hadnāt been a one time instance, if the person had stayed even after experiencing abuse, that wouldnāt be anything to blame them for either. Thatās very common, actually, and it doesnāt make the abuse their fault. It can be extremely difficult to leave an abusive situation, or to recognize youāre being abused.
