Thoughts on Plots and Schemes

Tutivillus

Conversation across the Lines yesterday sparked many a thought – leading to a deep thread of consciousness about the philosophy of “Tutivillus and BDSM”.

I won’t bore you with that…buy the book.

Here’s what I will say about the thoughts on plots and schemes.

For many of us, being Kinky is about Balance. It’s not about getting our cocks hard, our pussies wet, our rocks off or the secret thrills.

-Although, there is a lot of that…I consider it a benefit of the Lifestyle.

BDSM is part of a Life Balance that allows us to acknowledge and claim (completely) who we are.

I, for instance, am a man with a pretty heavy payload of Dark. Years and tears and self-loathing and reflection have taught me that it’s simply bullshit to deny who I am. There’s many a path to follow where Tutivillus can be true to his own nature and still follow the simple rule “Do what you will and harm no one”.

-Sure…if you want to define “Harm” literally, then you need to pull a stick out of your ass. Look around you and get with the vibe my friend.

Most of the BDSM practitioners I know are similar vessels. Whether we’re wielding the whip or feeling it’s lash…we’re all embracing who and what we are.

And it’s a very, very wonderful thing.


  • I agree with you. The more we deny those dark, shadowy sides of ourselves, the more power that side will hold over us — run our lives and restrict our choices. I think that you can only find freedom in embracing all parts of yourself. And then our choices become simply what they are: choices. (I like to tie men up and torture their genitalia, what of it?) Not judgments on our worthiness or unworthiness.
