[MissTaken]

Thou shalt follow your heart whilst using your head!




Damn, if I don't have to go to confession on that one!

 

[SpectreT]

Thou shalt seek knowledge before practice.
Thou shalt exercise restraint, as well as using them.
Thou shalt get off thine ass and into the Real World.
Thou shalt not ignore the safewords and signals.
Thou shalt honor and respect thy partner, be they Dom, Sub, or Switch.
Thou shalt not be a self centered prick. (Oh, wait, that goes in everyday life.... n/m......)


crap. ran out of gas on this one......

 

[Quint]

Thou shalt exercise tolerance for the uninformed and silence for the blatantly idiotic...though that's more "Commandment of BDSM Forum," really...and even still, take it as a suggestion rather than a commandment...

Thou shalt constantly strive to improve, first to achieve thy inner perfection (that thou hast, verily), and second to be worthy of the perfection in thy partner.

Thou shalt question thyself daily but trust in thyself and thy feelings when questioned. Strength.

Thou shalt be amenable to the new and unexplored, because therein lies the path to fun stuff.

Thou shalt never be ashamed of what defines any meaningful aspect of thy life, especially sexuality.

What can I say...I can wax eloquent with the best of 'em, but I'm just a 5 Commandment kinda gal.

 

[bluemouse]

Thou shall listen to thy partner with an open mind

Thou shall be willing to grow together, to reach beyond yourself into a world of intensity, with each other, to push each other as gently or as hard as needed to give each other the chance to fly, to achieve truth, to feel freedom in its purest sense

and i am sure Paul Simon did not intend this song for BDSM use, but....

"so you see i have come to doubt, all that i once held as true, i stand alone without belief, the only truth i know is you..."

Thou shall seek truth in thyself, and in each other....

(that just my thoughts ~ im having an zen day...)

[AngelicAssassin]

1. thou ...

Ok QBotU ... that deserved a spew alert.

 

[blue kat]

I had a whole list somewhere, but I can't find it now, of course. This is the most relelevant one I can remember, in light of the recent insanity.

Thou shall not seek to judge, invalidate or villify another's relationship, kink or perversion, solely on the basis of thine own experiences.

Learn it, love it, live it, kids.

Here endeth the sermon. Go forth in peace to love and perve the world.

 

[Darkest Lord]

One or two of the Ten Commandments of BSDM

1. Thou shalt not be needlessly cruel or humiliating to ones mate.
2. Thou shalt ALWAYS respect the code word.
3. Thou shalt NEVER violate the trust of a mate.

One should always remember that any relationship that involves BSDM is based upon love and trust. Any Master or Mistress who has a clue as to what they are doing would never hurt a slave (well at least nothing that would not heal in a day or two). Anyone who sees a relationship that involves BSDM as just being pain and humiliation has no clue what they are talking about.

7. if thy pleasure is to embarrass the daylights out of your slave, thou shalt check frequently for signs of lifelessness and green gills and unhappiness

10. thou shalt not terrorize the strangers among you with public displays of perving

Re: One or two of the Ten Commandments of BSDM

Oh, but needfully, yes.

 

[Darkest Lord]

Yes Indeed!

Yes indeed needfully!


Is not BSDM a needful thing?

 

[shy slave]

*runs and hides*

Thou shalt not tease or bait Dom/mes without knowing consequences beforehand

 

[babiesmiles]

... never under compulsion ... always with true pleasure .
