The Secret Art of Extreme Sexual Play
(D/s & BD/SM)

D/s stand for "Dominance & Submission" meaning that one person is dominant and the other submissive, both being of either sex. A female dominant partner is often referred to as a "Dominitrix" or "Mistress" and a male as "Master". Submissive partners are usually referred to as "Slaves or Subs". D/s often has a spiritual context or goal to guide the submissive to a Higher Self. BD/SM is widely used to describe "Bondage & Disipline - SadoMasochism".

The Following Are Brief Descriptions of D/s & BD/SM

SADIST: One who takes pleasure inflicting pain upon another, and can be either consensual "Play Sadist"....or non-consensual "Criminal Sadist".

MASOCHIST: One who derives pleasure from receiving pain. This can be Physical, Mental, Sexual or through Humiliation.
