I like inflicting pain. Not out of sadism, but because I get a kick out of the knowledge that the person I inflict pain to, is accepting that pain willingly.

You or anybody else, can call that Sadism. I don't.

Because Sadism in it's true form is dangerous. A sadist doesn't care about safe-words.

Absolutely, that's why I'll never call a Mistress whipping a slave a sadist.

I'm not in the lifestyle. I'm in life.
