Some "chicks" do think being beaten up is sexy, so do some guys. The game isn't for you, but that doesn't make it terrible, or BDSM a bad thing.

Please see my response to Cill Bosby.

I think it was someone on Jez, commenting on that stupid "save the tatas" campaign, who said, "I have breast cancer. These people are trying to 'save the tatas' while mine are literally trying to kill me." That sentiment has stuck with me.

I'm a cranky old lady, but my first thought was 'WTF were the parents doing letting the kids file a lawsuit.'

I personally hate the "I heart boobies" and "save second base" taglines because they imply that people should care about preventing breast cancer because boobs are totally hot, not because it's a devastating disease. That said, this is a ridiculous use of the court's time and the school's money.

Way to waste justices time. Good god.

The girl allegedly elbowed him and asked "What the hell are you doing?" before hitting the call button and (bravely, awesomely) speaking up about the incident.

Never? Thats pretty closed minded. Aside from the topic at hand (which is totally okay because it's consensual and involves something that happens behind closed doors, which you don't get to judge) what about defending yourself or others? Should one stand by while another is getting beaten or raped? Or just let it…

Uhm... some people like being spanked etc. They set up boundaries and safe words/signals with a partner. So you're saying we should shame someone for wanting to be treated roughly, or shame their partner for obliging?

Good for you. Having a frank discussion and defining boundaries is so important, and it seems like you were very responsible :)

Enjoying BDSM on either side doesn't make one crazy, just a bit different.

I do hope you meant everyone instead of anyone.

Be still, my tell-tale heart.

Never, whore.

what if it was someone you loved who asked you to do it? everyone has kinks, if that's what your s/o was into, really into, and didn't tell you at first for fear of rejection would you really be able to say no, and risk what you had because of your distaste? it's easy to view the world in black and white, much harder…

I've had three different girl friends ask me to explore "rape fantasies" that they had. All of them were raised in normal homes and weren't products of abusive environments. So while there wasn't any torture involved, asking someone to inflict pain (spankings are even a form of this) isn't so odd.

That being said,…

This is actually SUPER interesting. How exposed are people to this sort of BDSM lifestyle besides overused things in movies and shows like "the safe word" and things like that? I'd wager this would bring up an interesting discussion* about the ideas of violence towards women or any sexual partner while still…

As someone who played the game, it indeed is completely consensual.

I'm happy with more exposure to the bdsm lifestyle that has nothing to do with the god awful 50 Shades of Gray

Obviously this sort of game isn't for anyone, myself included.
