My one piece of advice.. if you're going to do breathplay then make sure your partner knows or looks into how to minimise the risks. Also read up about it yourself, so you know what the dangers can be, so you have an awareness of how risks can be minimised and then recognise if someone is playing less safely.

(When I first started out with BDSM, after my first relationship with someone experienced, having no idea all the safety strategies he may have been using, I encouraged novices to engage in this play with me and consequently ended up unconscious twice with different people - luckily they both noticed, but could easily not have done.)

I add to this...

make sure your aware of the risks for EVERYTHING you do. Don't fall into the trap of believing that as a submissive you can lay back and place everything in the hands of another, ultimately the only person who has full responsibility for yourself is you, if it doesn't feel/sound/seem right, say so, because the only person who can say it is right is you!

My advice is simple. Dont lie about who or what you are to yourself. That will tear you apart as i found out.

My advice? Don't try and fit yourself into a sterotype, whether that is Dom/me sub or anything inbetween. Each of our journeys on this wonderful path are unique to us...stay true to yourself and play safe.

Sounds good to me and one especially for the clubs and one I find offensive if not adhered to, do not touch without permission. It is disrespectful and can lead to others' being tarred with the same metaphorical brush which I find frustrating.

I know I'm being used, that's okay cause I like the abuse.
I can resist everything except temptation.
It's always funny until someone gets hurt and then it's just hilarious.

Quite apt for here:

Tell me not to play Well, all I got to say to you when you tell me not to play, I say, "No!" No! No, No, No, No, No!

If possible get to know other women in your area (munches are a good way to do this). If you are in any way unsure about how safe a potential play partner/date etc is, ask them! If there is any negative gossip about this person, you'll find out!

Also, as many other people have said, don't do anything you don't want to do. It's totally fine to hesitate if you're unsure, and if the person is interested in you as a person (as opposed to you as someone, anyone, available to play with), they'll be OK with that - and if they're not, someone else will be along soon enough!

Good luck, and finally, make sure you're enjoying yourself :)

Come to the Cardiff fish and chips munch :)
