@hawkeye10,
Quote:In normal BDSM the current consent arrangement tends to be "there is the door, use it if you dont want to be here doing what we are doing" and those who try to use the door are not stopped or even questioned. However, staying does not necessary mean that you have a say in what happens.
Well, if you, or your partner, doesn't have a say in what happens, then consent is being ignored.
And, if consent is being ignored, you should worry that the government might go after your BDSM activities--with good reason. You would be knowingly ignoring the sexual assault laws of your state. The government has a right to enforce laws, including the sexual assault laws.
Quote: BDSM has more than its share of puritans...
So, in your view, only "Puritans", even those into BDSM, subscribe to notions of "consent"?
My goodness, is even the BDSM scene getting too tame for your jaded tastes and aberrant sexual needs?
