Sometimes people have good intentions even though their execution is crappy. In this kinky world there are many activities that you might not personally enjoy or agree with. Good for you!
However, your kinks will not always match up with someone else. SO WHAT?
I recently had someone get mad at me because I participate and quite enjoy knife play. Yes it was a bit edgier and involved some cutting. (Tic tac toe has never been so fun!) They attempted to tell me that they don't believe I understand the risk involved.
"I don't approve of cutting. No way, no shape, no form."
Me: "good for you"
Them: "you need to stop it"
Me: "I was neither looking nor asking for your permission or approval."
It isn't for everyone. Yes there are dangers, but there are also dangers in breath play, rope play, impact, wax, fire...and those are to simply name a few. One big reason why I am careful who I participate in these activities with.
Its interesting the way our brains process things and the limits that we place. They may not make sense to everyone, but guess what?! They do not have to!
The whole situation just rubbed the wrong way. I'm sorry you don't enjoy the same things, but you won't steal my enjoyment, my surrender, my happy place....
Now, if you'd excuse me I would like to go back to dreaming about the next encounter with knives....💖💖
