BDSM: Fiction vs. Reality
BDSM is so much more than just whips and chains. What we do is so much more than just sex.Â
What we do is an art. Itâs about strict discipline, constant and consistent practice, itâs about learning, patience, honesty, trust, and love.Â
BDSM does not just âhappenâ. You will never wake up one day to a rich man who will dominate you just the way you want, when you want.
BDSM takes an abundance of practice, and even the most knowledgeable and experienced members understand that they still make mistakes.
BDSM takes even more patience. Mistakes WILL happen in scenes - there will be all kinds of mistakes, ranging from small to big. And youâll learn from them this way, and better learn to adjust and learn how to avoid the mistake next time.
Nobody wakes up one day knowing how to fully dominate someone. Nobody wakes up one morning knowing just how to please their Dominant and how to fully submit themselves to someone.Â
BDSM is a lifestyle. Itâs something not to be taken lightly, and the 24/7 participants have to work so very hard to keep their relationship not only alive, but thriving - they are constantly working on themselves, always trying to get better at serving or dominating.
Itâs exhausting. Itâs not always fun, itâs not always something youâre going to want to do. Youâll lose motivation, youâll want to give up some days. But BDSM is so much more than just pleasure - itâs about self-discipline, whether youâre submissive or dominant, you HAVE to have self-discipline.Â
Not everyone is naturally dominant or submissive. And it takes a lot of experience and practice to learn how to behave, react, and follow through with actions.Â
Rushing into BDSM is the worst mistake you could ever make. Having too high of expectations can lead to severe disappointment - you cannot expect your partner to grab the whip and know what to do with it with little to no practice. You cannot expect your partner to be able to submit whenever you decide you want it when youâre just beginning your journey. Expecting your submissive to be able to fall into a routine and follow and remember several rules you lay out in the first couple weeks of the journey is naive - just as expecting your partner to be able to dominate you in the exact way you need and desire the first couple weeks is naive.Â
BDSM is a journey - donât rush or you run the potential of completely ruining your relationship. Start off slow, give one rule at a time and slowly build it up, practice with each other and by yourselves. Put the same effort in the journey as one another - donât let one drag the other.Â
BDSM is beautiful, amazing, and so fulfilling. But if you canât go through the journey the right way, you wonât get the right results.Â
