Is it normal to think that spanking is not BDSM?

  • Perhaps so. It is just that a lot of the spanking stories I find online involve things that annoy me like enemas, and bondage, and blindfolding, and so I guess maybe I am being ignorant, but this is the way it appears to me. Maybe what I am saying is I like a more cuddly "daddy/daughter" type of pain, than all the rest which seems a little overboard to me. And true, spanking is part of the discipline in BDSM, but were I to waltz up to a guy and tell him I was into BDSM, I am quite sure he would get the wrong idea.

    • I know how you feel. That's why I'm often reluctant to bring up my interest in the community. There are so many misconceptions about!

      I'm sure you could find someone who shares the same fetish as you. If not, you try to get a appointment with a dominator. But you'd probably have to insist on the cuddle, though....

      I view BDSM as a art form, but some of the practices leave me feeling very embarrassed and I can't look at them O.0

      Also, theirs a form of bondage that might not be quite as extreme to look at. The Japanese have something called Shibari and they consider the whole process to be an art form.

      • Thanks for your helpful reply! Yes, misconceptions abound, and I guess I can just be more specific next time instead of complaining about it here!
