So, what is BDSM?

 

Simply put, BDSM stands for Bondage and Discipline, Domination and

 submission, Sadism and Masochism. But each of these "words" encompass many meanings of their own. But even beyond BDSM,

 there are other elements involved that make this such an interesting

 and exciting way of life and love. Frequently the different areas of

 BDSM overlap into one another, as a bondage scene might include

 humiliation, or a D/s relationship might incorporate fetishism, etc.  But

 just as frequently, there are purists who only care for one aspect of the

 lifestyle. It is our hope to explore each one and give you the clearest

 picture of each. In general, there is no hard and fast rule for what is

 right and what is wrong .....it depends on the individuals involved.

 Having said that, there is one creed we all agree on. All play must be:

 

SAFE, SANE & CONSENSUAL

 

"Mutual consent is what distinguishes BDSM from abuse and assault,

 just as consent distinguishes sex from rape"
