About
(this is a work-in-progress, so bear with me)
The idea behind this blog is fairly simple, really: BDSM is more than latex, leather, and aggression.
Plainly said, there’s a very widespread, popularly accepted image of BDSM - you know the one, dommes in black corsets and high heels and whips, a lot of shouting, people cowering, humiliation… And - and this is important - there isn’t anything wrong with that, in and of itself!
But BDSM can be more than that. Cruelty and sadism can be gentle and subtle as well as aggressive and overt. Corsets come in baby-pink shades. Collars are sometimes heartshaped. And sometimes dominance and submission can be something as simple as a tilted head, a soft grip, an arched back.
You might think of pastel bdsm as a feminine kind of BDSM, although it isn’t a word I like using, because it implies a sort of gender essentialism that I deeply dislike. This isn’t a women’s-only place, everyone is welcome here.
People on this blog can be of all genders and I chose not to tag things as f/f or f/m. Because it’s sometimes not that straightforward to gender someone correctly, and because of personal preference - your blog runner is pansexual as fuck and sometimes likes to be in an environment where gender differences aren’t at the forefront of things.
