I am as well. I have known about this. I do want to point out though, even though I don't want to defend myself, but I do want to defend the kink. Hypnosis itself is not to blame. Within any kink in this lifestyle, there are those that abuse others. We all know this. It is the practitioner, the individual, that chooses to do harm to someone else.
Hypnosis is a gift that I received and developed. And I think in a large part it's because I am a musician and go into a trance state when I play my cello. That's the best explanation I have for it.
Have I been perfect? Absolutely not. But I strive to do what's right.
One of the other arguments I hear against hypnosis is that I'm not a licensed professional… But the weird thing about that is with the other kinks they don't seek professional sex workers. Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't think it has much to do with it,
I am a professional musician and have been for many many years, but I also play with people that aren't professionals and they are very very good. What makes somebody good at something is not if they are professional or not, but if they put in the time, care, and love into the Craft.
I also don't look down on anyone that plays music, but is not professional. That is a specific calling on someone's life to devote themselves to Music as a professional. Anyway, I'm rambling. I'm sorry.
I was on the cage for a while and then left for I don't know maybe a year and a half or so, and I knew satin dragon and talked to her. I love her and she is a wonderful wonderful person .
I feel that when people are asked about being a licensed professional it is more about their training then the aptitude. Its not so much about how skilled you are but that you arent going to take advantage of the said skills. Hypnosis is essentially messing with the mind and why wouldnt people look for assurances before allowing something like that to be done to them?
While any kink could be abused and subject to manipulation, the hypnosis kink is even more susceptible.
