What goes on when people overfetishize safety is that they're relapsing into that old frame of mind that what we're doing is BAD.
My fantasies have never been safe ones. Don't fuck with me, unless you understand that.
Safe, sane and consensual — what do those words really mean?
Assimilation, that's what.
My fantasies have never been safe ones.
Fantasies aren't reality, I know, I know, I know. Except when they are. Except when you make them into reality.
There are times when I just want to walk through a room, grab that girl, slap her hard and make her cry. Push her down and fuck her mind over twice as hard as her body. Sometimes, I want to be that girl.
I can hear the whines — "But it's BAD to do these things without consent!"
No fucking kidding. It's bad to conduct medical experiments on people without consent, yet I don't see the AMA adopting the slogan, "Healthy, Helpful and Consensual!"
This used to be about sex. The literature of my people was pornography, filled with cries for mercy, drama enacted on people without prolonged negotiation, partners engaged in a dance in the middle of a bonfire. Now, it's 300-page manuals about how to make sure nothing bad will happen.
And fuck this, I didn't come out of years of fantasy, rescuing myself from a toxic parent and guilt-tripping myself through anti-sex feminism, politically correct lesbianism and socially-programmed homosexual activism so that someone else can make my goddamn sex life into a slogan.
