I do believe that woodsman'sgame has made the most perceptive comments. She is onto what is the core of our existance. BDSM is the state of mind that we bring to the interface with the real world and the greatest beauty is found at the personal photography thread. The bodies may not satisfy the ideal that the media promulgates but they are into something so intense that it blows the mind. The interface where fantasy meets reality. Munches are not where BDSM is at. The wheals and marks on the skin of woodsman'sgame are the reality and it is not surprising that this is a very private world. As probably it well should be. Sensuality may well have reached it peak in the paintings of Rubens and Titian. The skin is the canvass upon which the artist paints his story. The thin models of "favorite photographs" scream boredom and fakery to me - they may have exposed their bodies but nothing "real" really happened. My wife may be 50 lbs overweight but she exudes far more sexuality than the politically correct paid fakers.

woodsman'sgame I love what you do. And all the other subs whose marked buttocks and breasts make personal photography the greatest and most real feature of this site. Keep it up!
