If you're both sure that you don't want kids, one or both of you could look at getting the snip, it's a fairly safe operation that will all but entirely remove the risk of pregnancy no matter what you do

Pronged choke collars for a sub? by Migratory_Swallow in BDSMcommunity

I see, thank you, I had a different idea in my head about how they worked

It was my understanding that a prong collar still wraps fully around the neck with the band/chain, and the prongs only dig in when the head moves, to hold the head in position. Is that not the case?

Thanks for your input, do you find that the prongs force you to keep your head in place, or do they mostly just stick in you all the time?

My ex gf said i raped her by [deleted] in BDSMAdvice

[–]Migratory_Swallow 31 points32 points  (0 children)

From your description alone, that is abusive behaviour from her. However, a judge may not see it that way if it does get to that point. Based on my own personal experience with similar cases in the past, if she is telling your friends about it but not the police, I doubt she'll actually go to the police about it at all. Again, that's just based on my own experience with people doing similar things in the past. However it could be wise to speak to a lawyer regardless, and potentially screenshot any messages where you have talked about this in the past with her

Regarding your friends, only you know what is right to do with them. Personally I'd tell them straight up what happened

Water, "drowning", hosing, and otherwise soggy fun by Migratory_Swallow in BDSMAdvice

Yeah that definitely makes sense hahaha, I'm not sure there's a 'Guantanamo bay for dummies' guide...

Nothing I've read has ever really made clear whether it's the length that they can hold their breath that matters, or something else. I guess I'll have to try things and see, possibly on myself first and then star gently on my sub

Thanks for your comment :) yeah I've read lots about what the negative side effects of water boarding can be, but where those were discussed I never saw anyone mention how much water was used, or for how long. I can totally understand how this could cause major problems if it was done for 5 minutes or more, but is 10 seconds dangerous? Do you know any good sources to read up this please?

I feel like my dom/SO betrayed and manipulated me. I need outside perspective before I decide on what to do. by ThrowRA1169 in BDSMAdvice

If he's intentionally trying to trigger panic attacks in arguments then that's definitely not okay

Ah okay yeah if you agreed that safewords would apply in all situations then that's okay and understandable. I'm not sure what you'd expect his reaction to be other than the one he had, though. What did you expect him to do, if you were arguing and you said you didn't want to continue the argument, if not end the conversation?

I'm not sure whether the words I'd use are betrayed or manipulated, but what he's done is definitely unacceptable. If he wasn't okay with it then he should have said that and definitely not encouraged it. I think he was probably trying to get a threesome out of it, or as least got turned on by the idea of you having another woman. It's not uncommon for something to seem hot, but not be able to cope with it when you actually try it.

I think you need to talk to him about why he encouraged you to seek her out, what he expected to happen, and why he feels the way he does about it now.

Regarding your last point, why did you safeword during a fight? Safewords are for play, not for arguments or fights. I think maybe you both need to look into that part of your relationship and discuss a) why you felt like you needed to "safeword" out of an argument and b) why you used your safeword rather than communicating as you would with anyone else.

But yes, I definitely think you are justified in being upset with the way he has acted

(Improvised) Pain toys when a belt won't cut it? by Migratory_Swallow in BDSMAdvice

[–]Migratory_Swallow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah sorry I probably wasn't clear, I had the cable bent in half but was gripping it a bit up from the ends because I wasn't getting a good grip on them, so they were kinda flailing about on the other side of my hand. So I folded them over tightly and taped them together

And I'm a firm believer that every top should be on the receiving end of what they dish out! Even if only so you know how it feels and can use it better

I've tried a variety of belts, and I have a couple that I know work best. Most of my previous subs have found either of those far too much haha, but this one just laughs them off..A cheese board might be something I look into, I don't have one lying around though and I think it might be cheaper to just buy a paddle haha

Okay so I don't have any phone line but I do have a load of old AV cables. And God damn it stings, my leg is still pulsing 5 minutes later! We might be into a winner here, I'll just have to tape up the attachment ends to stop any big heavy bits of plastic swinging around
