Consent And Its Place In SM Sex

.... might not even seem obvious until it is too late. It is possible though highly unlikely that one could lose the usage of one's hands. Often in SM sex, extremely intimate information is given to your partner, for example a fantasy. If the fantasy involves play that mainstream American society might not find acceptable, a deeper level of trust would most likely be necessary. Many human beings have rape fantasies.
