Opposites
I was thinking today (yeah, i know, too much thinking can be dangerous!) about how the basis of BDSM is opposites.
Here's a few examples:
Master and slave
Dominant and submissive
pain and pleasure
giving and receiving
active and passive
bondage and liberation
fear and desire
intimidation and caring
strict and gentle
punishment and reward
tears and laughter
cruelty and kindness
vulnerable and secure
planning and spontaneity
responsibility and freedom
And then i was thinking about how these terms don't always relate to different people in the relationship, i.e one giving and the other receiving, or to different parts of the relationship, i.e one part planned and another spontaneous. Often one person is comprised of both opposites at once - so Sir is strict and gentle - and one part of the relationship evokes opposing feelings at the same time - such as vulnerability and security.
Can't elaborate beyond this really, but these are just my thoughts for today :)
