A few questions concerning punishment

[J-Go]

Thanks a lot to all of you... I'll go back and do that little individual thanks thing soon...

one remaining question: do BDSM couples have regular couple fights? yelling, screaming, negotiating?

I don't think BDSM couples are any different when it comes to disagreements than any other couple. I will say that the lifestyle has taught me how intimate a good fight can be. I can tell you from experience that being a Dom in a relationship does not make me the be all and end all in opinion nor does it always give me the last word in a disagreement. If anyone is looking to this lifestyle to end all confrontation with their significant other…good luck!

No, BDSM won't end all fights, but I do think it helps the parties learn to "fight fair." Well, more fair anyway...lol. I find myself thinking how to word my disagreements more respectfully, and I find myself pausing to think harder about my position. I also listen much better than I used to - as He is making a point I really try to trust His opinion and see where He is coming from. My two cents, anyway.

'Tis true.
