Triggers

Its odd, well not odd but i guess its going to sound really trivial but well as i have said many a time i do enjoy humiliation, but it is personal to the individual, there are little things that just trigger this reaction in me, not a positive one, and thats certain 'pet names'.  I just find some of them belittling in a way i dont like.

Being called subbie, i hate that, along with little one or little sub, i know trivial right?  and i cant even begin to give a reasonable explanation of why, they just rub me up the wrong way.

Now bitch, cunt or slut is fine, slag is a huge no, whore an even bigger no, they are just words, i know that, but words, phrases and how they are used, and more importantly how they are interpreted by the recipient makes them more than just words, they can get under your skin, eat away at you and play on ones mind.

A lot of it is just semantics, but still its how its worded that can trigger different results, a

"does my little sub want a nice spanking?" would not do it for me at all, but a

"does my bitch need a good beating?" will have me dripping straight away.

Anything weight related or degrading comments about my body will have me withdrawing, i do know the reasons for this my stepdad....well as a teen he constantly would belittle me, my appearance, well he just knocked my self esteem lets just leave it at that.

Being compared to another, put in a situation of competing with another, once many years ago now we were with a couple, Master had just finished caning me, not a hard caning by any means and the other dominant said something like (i cant remember exactly word for word) "oh, you should see what my sub can take, and proceeded to cane his sub, leaving these fancy kriss cross marks, after expecting Master to continue caning me,  Master didnt rise to the bait, the fact is i could have taken a lot more, but thats not the point.

Im not a 'game' and i wouldnt like the idea of being used as a 'party piece', perhaps its insecurity on my part but im not very confident in myself in the respect of being good enough, so anything that might put me in a position of not being good enough or any references made to be not being good enough would do more harm than good.

Im not an exhibitionist, although we have played with others in the past, its been a long, long time since we have and although i enjoyed some elements of it, im much more content and confident in private, i dont like public play, or public humiliation, the very idea of going out dressed like a common tart distresses me, heck i dont even like going out with no underwear on....thankfully Master likes me in nice underwear and its rare he will make the request of no knickers.

When we had played with others, i did perform oral sex on dominants, went down on femsubs, but truthfully im happier now being monogamous, i fantasise about being gang-banged, being passed around...but its one of those fantasies that is best left as just that, i couldnt cope with it, not on an emotional level.

I know he misses it at times (the playing with others that is), and that in itself makes me feel not good enough, because i should be able to give him that, to enjoy it for him, and its not that i hated it all, some elements of it were enjoyable but i would be content not to have to do it again.

  1. Good post tori! I have silly names I hate as well .. like "dear". I don't know why but I HATE being called dear .. there is just something about it .. it's impersonal? Patronizing even? *shrug* HATE IT. (broad, darling ... yeah those too)
    But there is so much more to this post that I can relate to .. I can't stand be compared to another (I am NEVER good enough) and I absolutely refuse to compete in anything .. I just hate the way it makes me feel inside.
    Most the rest of what you have written about I can commiserate with you, but I have no "practical" experience to offer anything other than "I can imagine I would feel like that too in that situation" ...
    But really .. I love this post!!!!!

  2. I also have problems with thinking I'm not good enough, and having someone tell me that in a harsh way- well, it will make me cry. That happened once, and she was so apologetic. It wasn't that bad, I mean I KNEW it was all for the scene, she never meant it really and truly, but at the same time, I did feel bad for a second.

    1. I would more than likely have reacted in the same way, i wander if its because we strive to please and to have inferred that we are not trying ie not being good enough just hits where i hurts a lot...emotionally.

  3. tori,

    I agree. Words can be powerful triggers for me also. But, some words do not work at all.

    I do enjoy public play, not sex, but being in a group scene.

    Thank you for sharing.

    Hug,
    joey

    1. I enjoy reading about when you do public play, and yes sometimes i have twinges of jealousy, because it sounds so much fun.....i think in a relaxed setting as yours mostly are then perhaps i would think differently.

  4. I touched upon this topic recently. Mr J and I just recently had a scene with a lot of verbal humiliation, going beyond my comfort zone. After the scene he comforted me and reminded me that the words meant nothing but still the words played upon my psyche. I could take a hundred hard lashes and it still would not effect me like some words do. To me it is odd ( I could not come up with a better word), it is even odder the power we give words.

    My silly really should not matter word is hon, I hate being called hon...despise it, especially when said by a man.

    I do not do public humiliation. In the bedroom love it, outside the bedroom I am to be treated like a lady. That is one thing I demand, I don't even put it as a hard limit, I just demand it.... I know not very sub like lol

    1. Verbal humiliation, as well as physical is something that has to be 'played' with carefully, what can seem so harmless to one may well trigger the opposite in others, but yes agree they can play on ones mind and not in a positive way.

      nope i dont like hon either lol

  5. I've been thinking about this a lot lately...

    Mostly words either turn me on or I'm indifferent to them... what makes the difference is if he puts 'my' in front, or 'my little'

    Anything weight related I'd struggled to cope with - I'm petite (5ft3 and 8 and a bit stone) but I'm still a little self conscious about my stomach - it's not flat, it never was flat, it never will be flat, and after seven kids it's healthy but - you know, wobbly.

    I think for me it comes down to the difference between being reduced and being declared worthless.
    Being reduced with humiliation and degradation to being his sex slave/toy/holes/whatever - amazing, healing even.
    Being made to feel worthless - soul destroying.

    1. I wander if weight is a common one for many femsubs, because well we are woman, many have issue with their weight.

      Yes i would agree with your differences, its about context and the dominant really knowing their sub enough to know what they can handle and what is just going to bring them down.
