I'm interested in learning NLP when I have finished with these other areas. It has always interested me, not for bdsm purposes though. | ||

One thing I would say is that for me, being rather niche and my kink being such a trust-dependant one (not that having rope round your neck doesn't require trust, to be fair), I dislike NLP's commonly-percieved usages. For me, I build up a trust relationship with my boys and give them the experience of a lifetime because of it. I could use NLP techniques to convince them to trust me earlier, but I don't, at least not consciously. Unfortunately, I am a natural NLPer (yes I agree brand-names blah blah, I mean I automatically use techniques people would consider NLP without consciously choosing to) and so people do find it easy to trust me in-person, and sometimes it does come to a self-check to ensure I'm not being too "underhand" in how I gained their trust. Unfortunately a lot of people who are trained in NLP and similar fields do not do this self-check and that is where it gets a bad name usually. | ||

Thank god someone said that ! Something i agree with in the whole of this rather odd "one upmanship" thread. Go spend a few years of your life studying psychology and then come back and review NLP and maybe see it, as I rather cynically do, as a reinvention of the wheel for financial gain . Kind regards, Polly Edited to add most of the terms such as mirroring , anchoring et al all derive from cognitive behavioural psychology ....a rose by any other name.........
