Beating a woman for any reason is illegal in Sweden, no matter how much she testifies that she likes it. There was a court case here, some ten years ago where a man was convicted for fisting a woman, even though she bore witness that she liked it, and her friends took the stand saying the same thing.

Being honest to the doctor is not an option in Sweden. My girlfriend initialy lied to her doctor and the doctor became increasingly aggresive since it was so obvious she was lying. After dropping a million hints my slave finally told the truth which was a bad move. Her doctor did not aprove in the least. Now she's switched doctors and has yet to visit her new one. But since the doctor never knew my identity, there wasn't much she could do. We still don't know if she would have reported us if she knew though.
I believe there are very similar laws here in the states but I don't think they just apply to women. Once a report has been made to the police charges are brought even if he victim begs them not to press the charges. It is out of the victim's hands once the police have been involved. I don't know all the details about these laws but I'll bet some here on the broads do.

I do know I have a friend who only wanted to scare her husband and called the police after a beating she sustained. Though she pleaded with the officer to forget it, an arrest was made followed by a court case and the loss of his job. I don't know if any good would come from informing your doctor ahead of time of any kinky interests you may have.

It would be very interesting to hear from some of our more informed people here on this subject.
