[angel-in-your-basement]

hey I hope this isn't too personal but your blog kinda made me realize I'm a sadist and (possibly?) a domme? having lots of feelings about this revelation so I kinda have an odd question as like: how does one get over like cognitive dissonance with regards to self conception? sorry if that's worded weird but like, I'm a huge massive softy with like, hyperempathy type brain nonsense so its kinda hard to imagine myself actually like *as* that kinda person. I'm aware soft-domme type stuff exists but idk like how to put it together in my head? sorry if this is a lil incoherent I just woke up lol. thank you for your kink education stuff and I hope your weekend goes well ^w^

(also any general starting out safety tips are greatly appreciated cuz ngl I'm very in over my head and wanna nip any hazards in the bud before I try experimenting)

Hi there! Not too personal at all, I’m happy to talk about stuff like this. I meant to answer this sooner but I’ve just been too damn busy irl, so here I am now!

When we are presented with new information and our beliefs are not making sense anymore, it’s time to sit down and reevaluate those beliefs. If you haven’t already, I would go look at this post, which goes into more depth about shame and questioning ideas about kinks. Since that post covered shame, I won’t go into depth on here, but we are going to talk about beliefs.

Why does this happen?

What is generally happening in cases like you’re talking about, is that we have formed ideas about ourselves (ex. “I am a big softy + hyperempathetic person”) and about the world (ex. “Sadists are tough/mean/scary/whatever”), and then we create logical conclusions based on those ideas (ex. “I couldn’t be a sadist, because I am soft and not tough/mean/scary”). Which works fine until we get new information that contradicts our conclusions.

What do we do?

When that happens, and we want to resolve it, we gotta find some flexibility in those beliefs! In your case, this might look something like this:

What is “that kinda person”, and exactly what parts don’t fit for you? What parts do fit?

Where did the “that kinda person” idea come from?

Is this always the case? Are sadists 100% like that?

What might someone look like who was very empathetic and ALSO a sadist? How do you feel about the idea?

Why might it actually make sense that someone empathetic would be a sadist?

The whole point here is get a good idea of where the conflict is, why it’s a conflict and then looking for areas of flexibility.

I can’t answer those questions for you, but here is a couple things from my experience that may be useful. I have known a lot of sadists, and just like every other group of people, they vary widely, but my favourite sadists have always been the people who are big, empathetic teddy bears who want to take care of me and coddle me just as much as they want to hurt me. I, myself, am like you, where I am very empathetic but I also very much enjoy psychological sadism.

Part of it, too, is that it just takes time to warm up to these new ideas, and you don’t need to go straight into the hardcore stuff. You can integrate sadism with basically any other kink, and sadism can look a ton of different ways. If it’s more that you like the idea of seeing someone struggling or being afraid, then even stuff like giving someone pleasure or taking care of them can be sadistic. And if you’re more into the actual act of inflicting pain, then you can do it in ways where people are enthusiastically encouraging you the whole time, if that’s what you need. You can also be a sadistic sub! Honestly, I think that’s the wonderful thing about kink - there’s a million ways to mix and match, and cater your experiences to exactly what you like.

Re: starting out safety tips, I think there’s already lots of good resources on this, so look into things like negotiation, safewords, SSC/RACK, red flags, etc. This post is already getting long so I’ll just say one thing that I don’t see talked about enough.

When you’re exploring new stuff and especially new relationships/dynamics, it’s very easy to get swept up by the emotions of it, particularly if you’re a people pleasing type person. All of the bad experiences I have had have stemmed from this - from being too excited and not being able to look at the situation rationally. So imo, it’s important to have clear boundaries for yourself (i.e. I will not do any sex stuff with someone until we have talked about xyz), and to have a plan to keep yourself safe that works under the assumption that you will likely be too enamoured to want to pull yourself away from the dynamic. Having platonic kinky friends really helps with this stuff! What all that actually looks like is a whole other discussion, so I’ll save that for another day.

[angel---eater]

i remembered that this was a thing and i couldnt help myself. elaboration under the cut

theyre both pretty vers, but hal got interested in Domming. dirk is really happy as a sub. hal also knows for a fact that dirk NEEDS to be Dommed so he doesnt just go crazy all the time, and Domming in turn helps hal regain a safe sense of control over both himself, his surroundings, and dirk. Domming is full on a hobby for hal. hes also really fuckin strict about SSC rules (as you should be) but dirk... not so much

drive: they both have trauma that impacts their drive. hal's drive is tanked most of the time bc he finds it difficult to interact with his body that way- another reason why he prefers to Dom, as for him theres a safe balance of separation and gettin' right up in there if yknow what i mean. dirk swung the opposite way with a generally higher drive while also struggling with hypersexuality (you can be hypersexual regardless of drive)

taking risks: dirk has a boner for Getting Into Situations that hal would rather he not get into ever. hal gets spooked somewhat easily and is more concerned abt safety. dirk doesnt use the safewords they set up LMAO. he says he will and he does remember them, he just doesnt know his limits and/or willfully ignores them to '''challenge himself''' which leaves hal with too much on his Dom plate too often. this is the cause of many arguments and hal storming out of the house with threats to never touch him again (yeah right)

dirk has called jakes name like 10 times. hal not so secretly likes it though. he holds it over dirks head for leverage

there was an incident that ended up with dirk in pretty bad subdrop, relating to him just not using their safewords, which also put hal in severe domdrop the next morning. hal ugly cried for a solid hour. this is related to the 'got injured/injured someone else' points

their playlist started serious w/ attention to bpm because they never half ass anything, but it quickly dissolved into memery. yeah they still fuck to it

dirk also mentioned alpha dave once. of course he did, hes himself. need i say more about that

hal kinkshames dirk for being a little too into machines routinely lol. its twisted around into a humiliation thing

hals mind sometimes wanders off during vanilla encounters. his face will just glaze over like dude will literally be scrolling through social media in his CPU brain while dirk is bouncing on it. it pisses dirk tf off and also really worries and stresses him out. hal isnt actually aware that hes just as if not a little more dissociative than dirk

tangentally to sex, most of the time all they want to do is snuggle and kiss. being able to be close to e/o like that is overwhelming in both good and bad ways. half the time they cant touch each other at all, and on really bad days they can't even be in the same room. theyre both BPD as fuck, so sometimes the feelings pile up until they burst

The consensual kinkster/paraphile (CKP) flag! This flag does NOT include nonconsensual kink practices or attraction to beings that cannot consent, but is otherwise inclusive of all kinks, fetishes, and paraphilias. CKPs consider consent of the utmost importance and work to keep kink spaces safe, accepting, and inclusive, and promote learning about the shared history of the kink and queer communities. We also work to protect those who are vulnerable, like children and animals, from being exploited sexually under the guise of "kink". This label is only to be used by adults.

Stripe meanings:

The diagonal stripes are meant to call back to the earliest kink pride flag (and one of the earliest pride flags in general), the Tony DeBlase leather flag.

The navy stripe is from the modernized leather pride flag. It represents the BDSM community, its subcultures, and all consensual kinks and paraphilias falling under the BDSM umbrella. It also represents trust.

The purple stripe is from the (cheshire) mad pride flag. It represents those with sexual neurodivergences such as those with sexual intrusive thoughts from OCD, sexual trauma survivors, hypersexuals, and disordered paraphiles*. It also represents acceptance.

(*it does not represent non-consensual paraphilic attraction, as CKPs do not condone or encourage attraction to nonconsenting beings, or engaging with this attraction in any way. People with these paraphilic disorders are not excluded from the CKP community as long as they are pro-recovery, anti-contact, and do not consider their disorders to be kinks or their attraction something to be proud of, but this flag doesn't represent that attraction. It can, however, represent recovery from that attraction and supporting the recovery of others.)

The pink stripe is for partialists, morphophiles, and other body-related kinks and paraphilias. It represents those who are attracted to certain specific parts of the body, certain body types, body parts of certain sizes, body modifications, transformation (tf), macrophilia, microphilia, etc. It also represents desire.

The red stripe is from the objectum flag and is for fetishists and objectophiles (and kinky objectums who prefer to just use objectum). It represents those with fetishes for/attraction to objects, including certain materials, certain clothing, certain toys/apparatuses, and other object-related kinks. It also represents liberation.

The black stripe represents consensual kinks and paraphilias that may be considered "gross" or "weird" or "scary", such as ones related to bodily functions, CNC roleplay, and potentially dangerous kinks (e.g. knifeplay, breathplay etc). It also represents solidarity.

The white stripes represent commitment to keeping the kink community safe for those in it, keeping minors out of it, and prevention of those who promote or engage in nonconsensual acts or feel attraction to beings that cannot consent from co-opting the kink label/community and trivializing the damage those things cause. They also represent consent.

CKPs are PRO:

RACK (risk-aware consensual kink). An alternative to SSC (safe, sane, consensual) that isn't ableist or exclusive of potentially unsafe consensual kinks- many "safe" kinks such as bondage have safety risks and shouldn't be labeled as safe as this is misleading and potentially dangerous misinformation. Risk-awareness requires knowledge and implementation of all possible safety measures, and recklessness and irresponsibility aren't acceptable in the kink community.

Kink pride/kink at pride. It is against sexual acts at pride (or with non-consenting viewers in general), but supportive of kink gear and pride flags being displayed at pride parades, as they have been from the beginning.

Harkness test. For those unaware, the harkness test is a guide to ethical attraction involving fictional beings. It requires that the being must be sapient and of an age that is capable of consent (or adult-equivalent ageless beings such as demons), and that as long as consent can be communicated and established, it's ethical.

Inclusion. CKPs are inclusive of aspecs, mspecs (including mspec gays/lesbians), ethical non-monogamy/polyamory, objectum/conceptum, cupiospecs, autospecs, xenogender, neogender, nondysphoric, intersex, altersex, aldernic, gender nonconforming, agab nonconforming, pronoun nonconforming, and all system/alterhuman origins/types.

Sexual health, including inclusive sex education, freely available contraception, freely available abortion, freely available HRT, freely available sex/gender affirming care, and freely available preventative medication (like PrEP). It also uplifts and supports those with STIs and sexual disabilities/dysfunctions and does not shun or shame them for having them. It also supports those with non-sexual disabilities that cause difficulty with sex, or causes others to infantilize them/take away their sexual agency.

Reclamation. Beings should be allowed to reclaim slurs against them and the sexualization/fetishization of their identities/bodies.

Having safe, accessible, inclusive spaces for kinky adults to socialize and play in consensually without fear or shame.

CKPs are ANTI:

Sexualization of non-consenting beings, including drawings, writings, and any other depiction- real or fictional- meant to be sexually attractive to those with non-consensual paraphilias.

Incest/consanguinamory.

Proship/profic/"fiction doesn't affect reality".

Radqueer.

Kinkshaming. A consensual kink squicking you out doesn't make it bad or worthy of ridicule. (This doesn't refer to jokes between friends and the kinkshaming kink as long as everyone's cool w it).

Calling people pedophiles or zoophiles when they are not (e.g. furries, petplayers, ABDLs).

Harassment, bullying, grooming, and all other forms of abuse.

Slut-shaming and prude-shaming.

Cops. Cops can and will arrest you for consensual kink!

Whew... this is long and it took forever to refine, as I took this very seriously. Sorry for no image description, I'd appreciate it if someone could make one for me to reblog, or I'll add one myself later when I have the spoons. I'm very proud of this!!! :3

DNI with this post or account if you intend to be an asshole and insert your shitty anti-kink or pro-ship opinions where they aren't wanted or needed. (Or if you're a minor, of course).

[shadeslayer]

day late follow up but btw to bdsm anon. one thing that could be interesting / that ive been thinking abt lately is u can look up about SSC and RACK - theyre two different approaches/slogans/idk for kinky sex and ive been more and more conscious of how i prefer RACK.

SSC is Safe, Sane, & Consensual which is what ull usually hear. but to get away from the vague ableism of 'sane' + the fact that some people want to have Not safe sex but its still consensually agreed on and okay w all parties, RACK is Risk Aware Consensual Kink. from what i know SSC is the older and more often used term which youll encounter in more general practice bdsm stuff, RACK is getting popular though and youll especially see it when it comes to things like knifeplay, scarification, needles, whatever. things that are generally understood to be dangerous no matter how safe you make it

[quiet-admirer]

Hey!

I was wondering about the difference in SSC and RACK kink approaches… and if I misunderstood something there or if the framing of it has changed since I’ve first came in contact with it 5+ years ago. If you want to check out my tags on the post I reblogged and want to talk about that I’d be curious and happy to chat :) If not, then sorry for the interruption. Wishing you a good day!

Hello, hope you're having a good day, too ☺️ Essay incoming, but there are a couple issues with using "safe, sane, and consensual" as a way to approach practicing kink.

[The tl;dr is that the SSC terminology is subjective and not specific enough to be useful.]

Firstly, it's vague and subjective. What does "safe" mean? I mean, vanilla sex isn't "safe" in the sense of being devoid of any risks. It's all relative; there are risks inherent in any activity, and that just means we educate ourselves about harm reduction strategies (wear a seat belt, use condoms). "Risk-aware" is more useful; it gives you an action to take: consider what you're going to be doing and make yourself aware of the risks involved in the kink you're practicing. Then you can decide if you'd like to do something to mitigate those risks or if you're okay with accepting potential consequences.

"Safe" just sends the message that if you can't make the activity safe, don't do it, which isn't very realistic. People are going to get off the ways they want to get off, but as communities, we can empower people to make informed decisions about their own sexual health without judgement if someone decides they are willing to assume certain risks. I think of it as RACK promoting critical thinking skills about engaging in your kink in the way that works for you, whereas SSC is prescriptive, assuming there's one definition of what "safe" is that works for everybody and that this definition is obvious and that to do kink "right" you have to be making sure it lives up to that definition of "safe."

Feedism and weight gain kink in particular are kinks that typically aren't given the green light under the SSC model in our culture. The Internet is full of tired, boring commentary about "who would ever make themselves fat on purpose, that's insane, you're destroying your health and killing yourself for a kink, get psychiatric help." SSC legitimizes this kind of thinking, or at least doesn't do anything to discourage it.

I'm much less generous about the use of "sane" in this acronym. "Sane," and correspondingly, "insane," are pathologizing and pejorative words used to dehumanize people who experience mental illness/mentally ill people. I disagree with the term "sane" being used in regards to kink in both directions: mentally ill/insane people (I'm using it as a reclaimed word here, hi, I'm mentally ill and insane) are human beings who deserve sexual autonomy, and kink practices should not be pathologized as indicating insanity just because the mainstream thinks they're weird.

I've also seen "sane" used to mean two different things. One is capable of giving consent, but isn't that already covered by "consensual?" And that definition, like you brought up, also often views substance use as something to be avoided, but intox and chemsex are established sexual practices that can be practiced with a RACK approach just like any other sexual stuff. "Sane" is also sometimes used to mean "woah there, let's not get too wild," but, like, why constrain sexuality to things the majority labels as "sane?" Why not get too wild? I would love to get more insane in how I express pleasure in my life! Fuck "sane," give me that risk-aware, consensual, insane shit please 🤲

In a practical sense though, it's another case of what is "sane" even supposed to mean? Some people think anything other than heterosexual post-marital missionary is insane. It's just so subjective that it becomes a useless metric.

Neither "safe" nor "sane" are cases of "you know it when you see it" when it comes to the wonderful diversity and depravity (affectionate) of human sexuality.

All right, now that I've said all that, I'm going to start sounding alarmist here, but bear with me.

A year ago my answer would have stopped there, but unfortunately, we're in the middle of a huge upswing in fascist, terfy, anti-sex purity culture that's been getting a little too real lately in the US (think banning public drag because it's "sexually obscene" with a dash of "but think of the children!", and regardless of the fact that drag performance... isn't inherently sexual performance, we're seeing demonization of non-normative sexuality being successfully used as a vehicle for suppressing non-normative gender expression).

Basically, when SSC leaves off at the vague "safe" prescription, it opens the door to anti-kink arguments of "but [insert kink] is dangerous, that means it's bad and evil!" With the way "kink-critical" arguments are a major way that fascism is making inroads into ostensibly leftist queer spaces, we gotta be deliberate with our language and fight that shit in every tiny (and big and direct) way we can.

"Sane" is even worse with the way the word "degenerate" (literal and actual 1930s German Nazism) is making a huge comeback and being applied to anyone with non-normative sexualities among other groups. So, sorry if this seems dramatic, but tying sanity in with sexuality in any way, and by extension labeling some forms of sexuality as "insane," isn't just a 'well, it's not the nicest way to phrase it,' situation when the cultural context is that freedom of speech and healthcare access are being systematically removed under the guise of arguments that equate and conflate gender nonconformity with non-normative sexuality and insanity.

I'm not blaming SSC for any of this, it just isn't doing anybody any favors in the antifascist department....

As a Mentally Ill, SSC has always rubbed me the wrong way, but it's an extra-special sore spot for me right now!

I hear "safe sane and consensual" is repeated in kink/BDSM. I can see how people determine safety (proper use of equipment/techniques) and consent, but how do people determine what's considered "sane"?

This varies from person to person, but I believe the general consensus is that "sane" refers to what any reasonable person would consider, and I have also seen people specify it refers to mental wellness/competence. For example, most people would not consider nullification under SSC, but it can fall under RACK (Risk-Aware Consensual Kink). So long as both parties are in a stable mindset and are informed of the risks, are making reasonable and responsible attempts to negate the risks (ie seeing a plastic surgeon, following proper aftercare procedures regarding cosmetic surgeries, abstaining from strenuous activity for the appropriate amount of time, etc) and are consenting, then it is considered responsible kink practice.

However, something like organizing a cnc scene with someone you have never met and have not vetted would not be safe nor sane, as it's a blatant disregard for personal safety and you would be taking unnecessary risks (physical and mental safety, veneral diseases, violent crimes both sexual and non).

What isn't completely covered by SSC (edge play such as blood play, knife play, and other kinks with some degree of inherent risk that cannot be adequately negated by the nature of the play) should be covered by the addition of RACK.

My rule of thumb is that sane is subjective, but you CAN NOT have a scenario that lacks any of the other letters that is considered play. If you lack ANY of the other letters it is a crime.

1, 5, 12?

1. What's something you've written that you know is OOC and you just don't care?

this fic, in which jet and spike are honest about their feelings and issues. they would literally never. they would rather die. but i wrote it for myself for my birthday so i don't give a fuck.

5. Something you hate to see in smut.

hmm. hate is a strong word. i'm not here to judge. i'm generally pretty picky about smut, but that has more to do with taste (and aceness) than actual loves and hates, but i'd have to say any smut where the characters are ooc'ly... competent. not in the sense of being good at sex, but in the sense of being fully aware of the Correct, Perfectly Respectful way to have sex, the Right Things To Say, all about safewords and SSC/RACK and how to properly ask for consent. all good things i'm glad the author knows!! but sometimes i don't think the characters would know. i don't actually see this a lot in the fics i read, but it's always distracting when it happens. 12. What writing rule do you refuse to break?

i never do head-hopping/pov switches without breaks. it's generally extremely confusing to read, unless the pov is fully omniscient, which i rarely see in fic.

[droolypupboy]

choking & ALL forms of breathplay should always be considered edgeplay (playing on the edge). i like to define edgeplay as activities that are generally a gray area between perfectly safe ssc/rack (safe sane consensual/risk aware consensual kink) vs unsafe play.

other examples of edge play include things involving fluid bonding; yes, this can be as simple as someone cumming inside you or as extreme as sharing blood. there’s also things like play involving weapons, and even things that are mentally and emotionally taxing such as cnc can be considered edgeplay.

edgeplay doesn’t have to be only things that “sound extreme”, they can be anything physically/emotionally taxing to a level that might ride that ssc/rack-unsafe line. for example, slave position training might be perfectly safe for some but to a person with physical disabilities, prolonged position holding could be considered edgeplay.

but something like breathplay/choking is UNIVERSALLY edgeplay for everyone. restriction of airflow is never not going to be dangerous. even with all the precautions and education in the world, there will still be a level of risk you are accepting and playing with when you engage in this type of play

choking shouldn’t be as normalized in the bedroom as it is. i think things such as slapping, choking, & spitting are all becoming accepted as parts of vanilla sex and i don’t think this shift has come with proper education, understanding, and sensitivity.

disheartening to see that “entry level kink” is winning on this poll. it is absolutely not.
