On Tuesday I asked over on Submissive Guide the following Question:
What myth(s) do you know about pertaining to BDSM? What is the truth behind the myth? Why should it be dispelled?
Now I’ve talked about myths here on this blog several times but since they are buried in my archives I thought I’d showcase them here. Take a look at what I think are some of the biggest BDSM myths around.
- The lifestyle is an excuse to sleep around with as many people as possible
- You have to like pain to be involved with BDSM
- If you use leather and rope its BDSM but if you use scarves it’s just wild sex
- In BDSM women are submissive and men are dominant
- BDSM has specific protocols that are internationally known and recognized
- I’m a submissive, therefore I can brat and be the center of attention
- I’m submissive. I’ll be expected to act a certain way
- I’m Master/Mistress so and so, Everyone must respect me
- Submissive men are weak
- Everyone plays heavy, there is no room for people who consider a feather heavy
- This is what BDSM is, and if you aren’t doing it this way, you are wrong
- People who practice BDSM are mentally ill
- The ‘net’ and magazines only have beautiful people in expensive outfits. I’ll never fit in
- People into BDSM can’t have normal sex
- My kink is okay, yours isn’t
- BDSM is all about pain. I don’t see how pain is enjoyable
- All the Master / slave stuff is play acting
- There are few people who actually practice BDSM
- BDSMers live on the fringes of society
- “Leather” is only for Gay men who meet in bars
- People who practice BDSM are all promiscuous

I'm a large, curvy, lustful submissive learning the ropes in a full time D/s relationship. My explorations with love and life and BDSM have brought me closer to the edge of pain and pleasure, deep desires for rope bondage and debauchery but moreso a desire to delve deeper into submission and service to my Master
