lucyboy,

BDSM goes beyond paraphanalia and titles.. its about a persons inner self. its about who they truly are inside. you can take away all the crops floggers.. titles galore.. and there still will be a major difference. for the commitment is on a deeper level. so yes there is a difference. some might not believe me but i'd be suprised.. those of you out there who feel that this is something natural from within... will understand exactly what i mean
