wtf bunny floggers?

[JMohegan]

heh I don't think I'd ever play with a top who wasn't at least half playing to satisfy me...

Different strokes, and whatnot.

If it is, I think it's really lousy to play with someone casually who doesn't want to be your sub, and not go to their level because you want to "teach them something" - I think it's really D/s presumptuous. I'd be really REALLY pissed then, because I want to bottom and be suspended and I don't want to be Dominated.

I could have slept through a hundred pro sessions claiming "I'm trying to frustrate you" - unless that person really wants to be my slave boy, that's not a reasonable response. If I don't want to play to that person's level, I should not be playing.

I agree - however, my seemingly endless study of the human animal pointed me to one of two ideas - one, the bunny flogger was meant to train the skin or train clumsy dominants, get a sub used to light touches and rhythm, or let a dom/me with no grace get used to the idea of a flogger without dealing a stinkpile of damage.

Two, it was desinged to be mentally and emotionally frustrating to a sensation-craving sub.

I should have made clear I was discussing the bunny flogger in general, not the rest of the specific situation it was brought to my attention

Wait, no, this is curious to me.

Do you mean that even in your non-casual play, you've never found yourself tweaking the play toward the really ecstatic reactions you're getting, or finding that you're developing a taste for things your sub has a strong reaction to, positive reaction for the sake of this argument?

I like to do certain things. I love the conflict, the smell of fear, the struggle also, but that's really not anything I need a daily diet of. So I try to match myself to people who like at least a majority percentage of those things that interest me, because yes, I am not merely playing for myself.

I need three people to satisfy what I like, I can't think how many legions MORE I'd need on hand if I only wanted to do what I want to do and have the reactions I want. My life feels too short for "blah" reactions. I want love and I want detesting out of my evildoings toward other people's bodies.

My last flogging session.. well, it's 60% flogging, about 20% caning, 10% slapping, and 10% paddling... anyway.... i felt for almost a week. I know i have lost a lot of weight and the more i do the more things seem to hurt in some areas (God is my chest sensitive to being hit now) but i egged her on when i found out that she'd not been hitting me as hard as she could... so i got her to.. and yes, movement for a week was difficult

Bunny flogger might be great at the end of that session where my entire body is on fire and every touch is like electric pulses moving through me. I definitely like bunny fur mit in the after care part, rubbing softly over my skin, tracing over my body, but as mentioned before.. as the one and only play toy.. i just think i would be soooooo frustrated

They're great for warm ups, cool downs, or sensation play, but when I'm getting flogged baby I wanna feel it for a couple days!

No, I was talking solely about casual play with a non-partner. Negotiated, episode-specific, like Chicklet's encounter being discussed on the thread.

In a relationship context, yes of course I get off on ecstatic reactions. Sometimes purely as a test of, or compliment to, my skill. Other times because I'm in the mood to please the woman I care about. Or because I'm simply getting off on the visual and audio feedback, or at times even for motivational purposes.

But I like to control what happens, and when.

I read the opening post here and laughed out loud. It sounded so much like something I'd do (with a partner), just for fun. Pick up something ridiculous and carry on to amuse myself, if the mood strikes me.

SpectreT's reaction is also something to which I can definitely relate. Deliberately induced frustration rings my bells on occasion - again, when I'm in the mood.

However, I agree with your comments in post 11, about what would be "D/s presumptuous," i.e. way out of line, in casual play. So if I want to go where the mood strikes me, I need to be in a relationship.

"Different strokes" meant: I don't do casual play. Without D/s, to me, it feels like I'm the one doing the serving. I'm just not interested in topping for the sake of topping itself.
