In several versions of Star Trek, the Star Treckers encounter "The Borg"1 and are threatened with being assimilated into their collective telling them resistance is futile. That is Science Fiction, yet I have learned that historically and even in contemporary times, there are examples of people being assimilated into systems, movements, or circumstances where resistance is futile. Most of you won't have to seek long to discover examples of this, so that I will continue instead with our BDSM lifestyle juxtaposition.
Resistance is not futile when a Dom or Sub agrees. The complete opposite is true. Some lists can be used to zero in on mutual interest, even if that includes a willingness to experiment. Contracts and guidance exist here at The Cage. Consent is vital, and the futility to comply is more than just a "no-no." It has the potential to break laws.
There is no excuse for ignorance. Just read and comply according to well-established protocol.
