I'm with you icey - I've not heard of 'orgasmic space' but suppose when in the throws of an orgasm (even vanilla delivered), there is a little 'lift-off' there lol

Some people are under the impression that only pain can take you to subspace as it requires an endorphin rush and pain is the quickest way to send those endorphins into overdrive. So if that is true and a sub isn't into pain play does that mean she never gets to experience subspace? Probably not lol.

Personally, I think that whatever is intense for you works to get those endorphins going - a simple blindfold may be it, enlicting fear to work your endorphins instead - there are many ways, all as unique as each individual that helps I'm sure. This sub sounds like she is just posturing because she likes pain and feels that if you aren't a painslut, then you aren't sub enough - instead she is just a simple masochist hehe
