I know that what I deem as abusive differs from another's stand point.
Given that, personal safety is an absolute must, be it physical, mental or emotional. To blindly accept and be "honored" by treatment that is less than acceptable by the limits established, because Master/Mistress has had a bad day or decides for whatever personal gain, to abuse those limits is incomprehensible.
They are in a position of power. With that power comes a great responsibility. Neglecting or abusing that power does not make a good Master/Mistress/s relationship ever.

This is only my opinion.
And that's where the different levels come in to in my opinion. I look at it as a subs job to please their master how their master sees fit. So if a master or mistress is having a bad day and wants to take it out on their sub with a can or whatever they choose I feel its good since its making them happy. But u have to trust that your master or mistress will always follow the basic rules such as no permanent damage. Of course I love pain so my opinon may be looked at different. My body feels like sweet sensitive tasks are torture and abusive
