Talk about Denial!

Personally, that goes too far for me. The whole idea of altering someone that way kinda turns me off.

I suppose it doesn't help when one associates the practice with mutilations performed on infant girls in, say, Egypt.

Sorry for offending. I actually posted it as a curiosity.

I had never heard anything like that before. But, please bear in mind that the instances referred to in the forum involve adults engaging in consensual activities. It is my understanding that it is also not permanent. It does not entail the removal of any flesh as in infant girls' clitoral mutilations and baby boys' circumcisions, etc.

Perhaps Reynard would be kind enough to delete the thread so that we don't get into a contentious discussion.

I hope the thread won't be deleted. I'm not in favor of deleting threads. Discussion among people who don't necessarily agree is generally considered the lifeblood of fora not their deathknells.

As for me, this idea isn't my thing either but that is not a judgement on you for linking to the discussion. Different people have wildly different fantasies from my own and that's fine. Permanent damage is generally not tolerated at bondage.com (and shouldn't be tolerated anywhere) but role played or simulated extreme fantasies such are interesting to some. Safe, sane, and consensual doesen't need to rule out discussions of "edge play" and the presence of someone who thinks a particular thought or post is a bridge too far in some way shouldn't mean the conversation is felt to be threatening or in need of deletion. It's ok if we disagree about something from time to time.

I guess I sounded kinda offended. I didn't mean to be! I was just saying, not my taste. Feel free to post whatever you want (though not, y'know, death threats or anything). If this were a recipe sharing board, perhpas I'd say, "AI don't like fresh tomatoes, myself," but that doesn't mean other people can't share recipes with fresh tomatoes or anything! I'm not mad at you or anything, Girl Next Door, and I've enjoyed many of your posts. This one just is not my taste.

Ack... I don't wanna go through that again.

There was a thread I "nuked" a little while ago. I hadn't meant to wipe out the whole thing, just what one person had written (at their request). Sorry if it seemed like I was censoring things.

Anyway, your post did say "Holy Cow. Sewing it shut!" - that should have been a pretty good clue for the squeamish.
