Consensual aggression can be a huge sexual turn-on for me. Even slightly nasty spiteful behaviour - but its hard sometimes to keep the lines unblurred perhaps. | |||

Its not their place to be aggressive with you, tell your dom about it. In my opinion it is his place to make it clear that this kind of attitude is not acceptable.

Its a bit sad really. If you have real self confidence this kind off expression is not needed. Its basically rude and rudeness is the tool of the lowly.

To limit the chances of someone abusing your trust and surrender I would personally recommend that the questioner puts forward some limits to begin with to her new partner and ALSO more importantly takes things more slowly with a new partner. There seems to be this 'ideal' in the bdsm world that if you find the right partner then it will happen within a weekend and all that rose petals with things going perfectly etc... Yes I am not denying it can happen but a lot relationships which last, take time to develop into the fully satifying partnership. | |||

definitely - and hours of negotiation and talking and then re negotiation as boundaries change - it's a continual process. De Roses are red,
bruises are blue,
masochists are sweet,
and I love you. | |||

i would agree assertive is a million miles from agression its about self control some people who dont have that degree of self control should made look inside thems selves as to if the life style is for them. | |||

Correction: when we don't play. But this just shows that often I dont see D/s play as the "real life" but rather a moment in time and space, artificially created by new rules that don't apply in "real life", where an environment has been established that is safe and controlled (at least by my Dom) as to give us a platform from which we can realize our dark fantasies and deviant desires. Props, roles, toys, clothes, language are premeditated to fulfill a particular purpose, they are not just random but meant to make us tap into our subconciousness, our fears, our desires, our dreams, our hidden fantasies...no, this is not real life, justchris...

I'd have thought agression*between* doms might be just as prevailant. Quo vix attingent Foederati punire possumus | |||

I have been looking around on IC, reading various posts for quite awhile now. I've read many of the responses to this initial post and I really loved what you had to say ClaudiaVX. Your words moved me to comment. It is true that ultimately it is the person, and their intentions towards you, that you have to be sure of. No matter your kink, or if you view yourself as vanilla, Dom/me, sub, etc... put yourself first when getting to know someone with whom you are going to be having any type of exchange. As others have said, if something seems wrong in any way, heed that and deal with it as soon as possible; whether that means stopping everything and having a chat with your partner so your needs are understood or getting out entirely. It is my belief that, ultimately, you have to take care of yourself first. Gradually your partner should earn your trust through his/her actions, by working within negotiations made and agreed upon by all involved.
I also liked the comment from someone, I cannot recall the poster (apologies), but they said, what they do, comes from a place of Love. I think that's great. From what it sounds like, the guy in question should be made aware of your needs because, as someone else also said, any Dom/me worth your time would feel absolutely awful to know that what they had been doing was something that made you feel like your boundaries had been crossed in a non-consensual manner. Take care all. ~LV
