My Unpredictable Mind

Okay, so I have recently gone into a BDSM forum because I was rather curious and did not like much that I read. There was a post asking if anybody liked choking during sex, and most of the people commented saying they did! That is just crazy to me. I mean, I understand that it is a form of submitting to the man, giving him complete control, but I would classify choking as violence.

I also noticed that everybody in there referred to their partner as either "master" or "sub". Am I the only one that thinks that should be sayd only in the bedroom, and not as a form of everyday greeting? When I think of "master" and "sub" in the form of a lifestyle, I think of a woman in chains in a dungeon somewhere being forced to do things. This may or may not happen, but that is what it makes me think of and be afraid of.

I have know for a while that I do not want the white picket fence brady bunch family lifestyle, that I want more than that, but BDSM is so extreme, I cannot see myself ever trying such things, altho I do understand some of them. If anybody in the BDSM lifestyle reads this blog entry, please help me understand why you are in that lifestyle and if you were ever afraid of it like I.
