I also agree that, as long as the relationship works for the people involved, then whatever those people choose to do is clearly the right thing. Just as long as it's all safe and legal and such.
I find these discussions extremely helpful. I am new to the DBSM world and hearing everyone's view point is how I learn. I will admit Eraser's view did shake me up a bit, but it also made me think about the needs of a Dom. I find your views helpful and I really appreciated the time you spend discussing these issues with us.

I also have to thank Slavelucy for making it simple and easy to understand.
