BDSM vs. Abuse

The line between BDSM is not thin - it is a brick wall 2 feet thick. Let me elaborate and give examples

BDSM  is a power exchange - The submissive WILLINGLY gives power to the Dominant to do as he chooses within the confines of her limits. The Dominant WILLINGLY gives power to the Submissive to give final approval or disapproval for any act.

ABUSE:  The abuser takes what he or she chooses either despite or because of the victim's unwillingness or fear.

BDSM  - both parties crave, desire and find pleasure in each act. If not, they discuss the act and adjust accordingly.

ABUSE:  Only the abuser craves, desires and finds pleasure in the victim's pain and subjugation.

BDSM:  Both parties have respect for the other and a very, very close bond.

ABUSE: The only bond is fear.

BDSM:  The ultimate goal is joy.

ABUSE:  The ultimate goal is power.
