Abstract:
In this article, we explore the ways BDSM practitioners negotiate gender. Based on 32 in-depth interviews with BDSM practitioners and thousands of message board posts from the then-largest online BDSM community in the USA, we explore the explanatory frameworks BDSM practitioners use to (1) downplay and (2) emphasize dominant notions of gender to make sense of BDSM practices and experiences. In so doing, we discuss some ways BDSM practices and interpretations may both challenge and reproduce broader societal patterns of gender inequality. In conclusion, we draw out implications for understanding (1) variation in the utilization of gender beliefs and assumptions within BDSM cultures, and (2) the consequences these patterns have for the reproduction of gender inequality.

Abstract:
Consent represents a central focus in the controversial realm of BDSM—an overlapping acronym referring to the practices of Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, and Sadism and Masochism. Many authors have argued that the hallmark feature that distinguishes BDSM activity from abuse and psychopathology is the presence of mutual informed consent of all those involved. This review examines the relevant literature on consent in BDSM, including discussions on safety precautions, consent violations, North American laws pertaining to BDSM practice, and the role of the BDSM community with respect to education and etiquette surrounding consent. Practical information relevant to professionals who work toward the prevention of sexual exploitation and abuse is provided. The explicit approach to consent practiced by those in the BDSM community is proposed as a model for discussions around consent in clinical and educational contexts. Criteria for distinguishing abuse from BDSM and identifying abuse within BDSM relationships are outlined. It is our hope to demystify the consent process and add to the growing body of literature that destigmatizes consensual BDSM practices.

Abstract:
Introduction BDSM is an acronym describing bondage & discipline, dominance & submission and sadism & masochism. Afflicting or receiving pain is usually an important part of the BDSM interaction. Objectives This research focuses on better understanding the aspect of pain within a BDSM interaction by investigating the differences in 1) baseline pain thresholds, 2) the impact of a BDSM interaction on those thresholds and 3) threshold moderating factors like pain cognition between submissive and dominant BDSM participants and control individuals. Methods Submissive and dominant counterparts of 35 couples were recruited to participate in a BDSM interaction, of which 34 dominants and 33 submissives were included in analyses. A non-BDSM interested control group (n=27) was included to control for social interaction, of which 24 were included in analyses. Pain threshold measurements were measured at three points in time and pain cognitions scales were taken. Results BDSM practitioners have a higher pain threshold overall and a BSDM interaction will result in a temporary elevation of pain thresholds for submissives. Additionally, pain thresholds in dominants will be dependent upon their fear of pain and tendency to catastrophize pain and submissives will experience less fear of pain than the control group. Conclusions This study helps shed further light on the biological processes behind a BDSM interaction through pain threshold measurements. By enhancing our understanding of the mechanisms behind a BDSM interaction in this way, we aspire to relieve the stigma these practitioners still endure. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Abstract:
Abstract The Fifty Shades trilogy is often associated with BDSM, yet practitioners of BDSM typically disavow the trilogy. Previous research highlights how mechanics of BDSM such as agency and consent are misrepresented in the trilogy; this study highlights differences in affect. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork among BDSM practitioners in Berlin, Germany, this paper considers reception beyond reading as evidence of BDSM’s affective phenomenology. The paper combines an Ortner-inspired “cultural ethnography through discourse” with close reading: it compares discourse and affect observed in the field with that in the novels, and suggests that the portrayal of BDSM in the novels and portrayals of the novels as representations of BDSM misinterpret the affective phenomenology of BDSM. Through attention to language, this study shows how affect and situated discourse become mutually constitutive in shaping the legibility of phenomenological experience, suggesting that playful reterritorializations of semiotic forms can counter mimetic perpetuations of symbolic violence.

Cel pracyCelem podjętych badań było poznanie narracji i próba opisu w jaki sposób osoby identyfikujące się z praktykami BDSM (sadomasochizm (S/M), bondage and discipline (B&D)) opisują je, jak je definiują oraz jakie upatrują funkcję praktyk w ich życiu.MetodaW badaniu została zastosowana metodologia badań jakościowych – teoria ugruntowana. Zgodnie z jej założeniami, celem jest zbudowanie teorii średniego zasięgu w oparciu o dużą ilość, różnorodnych danych. Grupę badaną stanowiły osoby w wieku 20-49 lat, identyfikujące się jako praktykujące BDSM. Przeprowadzono wywiady intensywne z 12 osobami.WynikiNa podstawie analizy językowej wywiadów wyodrębniono kategorie związane z tożsamością oraz definicją BDSM. Następnie stworzono model teoretyczny opisujący proces definiowania własnej seksualności u osób praktykujących BDSM.WnioskiBadania pokazały stadialność procesu definiowania i akceptowania swojej seksualności przez osoby praktykujące BDSM oraz wieloaspektowość identyfikacji z własną rolą w BDSM. Punktem wyjścia kształtowania się identyfikacji z praktykami BDSM była tożsamość płciowa i orientacja seksualna. Osoby badane definiowały swoją seksualność poprzez identyfikowanie się z rolą w praktykach BDSM lub poprzez czasowe podejmowanie określonej roli. Wydaje się jednak, że definiowanie własnej seksualności u osób praktykujących BDSM nie jest systemem zero-jedynkowym ograniczonym do „tożsamości” lub „roli”, ale raczej continuum, rozciągającym się pomiędzy nimi.

Abstract:
Introduction The past years BDSM (an acronym for bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, and sadism and masochism) has gained a significant amount of attention and popularity in the general population, portraying an inaccurate image of BDSM and the people who share these interests. Yet despite this increasing popularity, only little empirical research has focused on this subject and it’s possible driving mechanisms so far, sustaining the existing misconceptions and stigma towards BDSM in general and BDSM practitioners in specific. Objectives We aimed to gain more insights on understanding the underlying psychological mechanisms, such as sensation seeking and coping, in people who participate in BDSM-related activities, as well as into the factors which contribute to the existing stigma and discrimination Methods In a national survey study 256 Dutch-speaking BDSM-practitioners were compared to a matched sample of people from the general Belgian population (N = 300) who lack any interest in BDSM in two separate studies. Results About 86% of the general population maintained stigmatizing beliefs about these sexual interests and practices. In regard to sensation seeking and coping, compared to controls, BDSM practitioners reported signifcantly higher levels of sensation seeking for all dimensions, as well as the use of more active coping skills. Conclusions People who do not conform to the current social standards of our society often seem to remain the subject of stigmatization and discrimination. Further research is needed to explore the psychological processes that drive BDSM interests in order to destigmatize and normalize consensual BDSM-related activities.

Abstract:
Dini ini, BDSM banyak dibicarakan dalam media sosial maupun dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Banyak masyarakat yang tertarik dan penasaran untuk sekadar mengetahui atau terjun dalam dunia BDSM. Rasa penasaran dan kurangnya pengetahuan dapat menyebabkan kerugian seperti luka, cacat atau kematian kepada partner BDSM scene. BDSM bukan merupakan tindak pidana walaupun sangat erat kaitannya dengan kekerasan karena dilakukan dengan consent. Dalam ilmu kejiwaan, sadisme dan masokisme termasuk dalam parafilia. Namun, penyimpangan tersebut tidak dapat dijadikan sebagai alasan untuk menggugurkan pemidanaan dikarenakan bukan termasuk yang dikecualikan pada Pasal 44 KUHP. Sehingga, pelaku BDSM yang menyebabkan luka, cacat dan hilangnya nyawa akan tetap dipidana.

Abstract:
Based on interviews and ethnographic fieldwork within BDSM communities in Sweden, this article focuses on links between non-monogamy and BDSM. Drawing on Halberstam´s concept of queer space, the following questions are investigated: What are the connections between BDSM and non-monogamous communities? How does interaction between BDSM and non-monogamous practices create non-normative logic? The transgression of one norm makes it easier to transgress other norms as well, providing opportunities to find new ways of organizing relationships beyond the norms of monogamy. In order for an individual to be able to fully explore kinks in BDSM practices and at the same time respect the boundaries of a partner, nonmonogamy emerges as one logical answer.

Abstract:
Within psychoanalysis, BDSM (bondage, dominance, submission, sadism and masochism) has typically been interpreted as pathological, resulting from the (gendered) tension between assertion and recognition developed in the oedipal phases and enforced in dominant ideology. To practitioners, however, BDSM recognises the physical and psychological dependence of people on each other. The tasks inherent to successful BDSM redefine traditional masculine and feminine identity; dominants recognise their own dependence and submissives are independently powerful. Expanding on feminist psychoanalytic theory, this paper argues that BDSM relations may embody the psychologically ideal state of ‘mutual recognition.’ Practitioners take pleasure in connection without the threat of engulfment. Significantly, the skills developed in BDSM may help mediate a variety of interpersonal and institutional power relations.

Abstract:
BDSM practitioners typically report higher sexual satisfaction than the general population (Botta et al., 2019; Joyal & Carpentier, 2017; Strizzi et al., 2022). One possible reason for this is that the BDSM community prioritizes open communication and challenges traditional sexual scripts. In a sample of 376 individuals, we found a positive association between BDSM participation and sexual satisfaction which was fully mediated by direct communication about sex. These results build upon previous literature that emphasizes the vital role of communication in sexual satisfaction, broadening this result to a more sexually diverse population. In addition, the frameworks used by BDSM communities could inspire the use of similar strategies to improve communication and sexual satisfaction in non-BDSM populations.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis proposes a new school of literary analysis: Kinky Criticism. This critical theory will examine the presence in literature of themes related to BDSM, an acronym referring to bondage/discipline, domination/submission, and sadism/masochism. My purpose in examining this power exchange and sadomasochism in literature is threefold. Firstly, I aim to reveal the presence of kinky themes in not only a range of literary works, but also leave the reader aware of kink present in everyday human interactions. Secondly, through this application to literature, Kinky Criticism sheds new light on the techniques of characterization and adds complexity to the dynamics between characters. Finally, Kinky Criticism provides a new perspective that leads to unexpected conclusions about hotly debated topics in literature, such as the infamous sodomites of Dante’s Inferno. Although a few scholars have commented on kinky themes, their analyses have not yet gained the coherence of a critical movement. This thesis aims to outline the tenets of Kinky Criticism and to establish not only its legitimacy as a critical lens, but also Kinky Criticism’s unique contributions to the interpretation of three major literary works: Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy, Ernest Hemingway’s For Whom the Bell Tolls, and D.H. Lawrence’s Women in Love.

Abstract:
This research focuses on the methods of introduction into BDSM, role identification, and the management of private information as it relates to BDSM. The method utilized for this study was in-depth interviews of fifteen current participants in the BDSM subculture. It is primarily through peer association, sexual scripting, and impression management that new members are introduced, learn their role, and manage their information within the BDSM subculture. It was found that peer association is the primary method of socializing members. Role identification is accomplished through both a method of sexual scripting as well as complimentary differentiation, the process by which a stimulus is transmitted and received, and subsequent stimuli are transmitted back, reinterpreted and responded to. It is through impression management and stigma management that members learn to maintain the privacy of their participation. Future research should include additional analysis with a larger sample size to determine if the current findings will continue to hold true.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine escort-business with a focus on sales of BDSM-services (Bondage and Discipline, Dominance and Submission, Sadism and Masochism). The study is based on qualitative interviews with three informants providing BDSM-services, as well as a survey with 96 men who requested domination of escorts (the survey was carried out by an escort in the 1980s). The analysis of this material resulted in the identification of three themes on which the study centers: The personal experiences of the three escorts, the interaction between the escorts and the clients, and the changes over time when it comes to the performance of BDSM-services. The study has a gender perspective with a focus on feminism and queer-theory. The important conclusions are that there are several differences between prostitution having a focus on BDSM-services and other prostitution. Sexual intercourse is not a common occurrence. Role-playing games involving domination and submission, physical pain, humiliation and fantasies are instead central elements. Due to the security risks submissive services have been assumed not to exist in prostitution. In this study, however, two of the informants present themselves as submissive. Nothing in the empirical material suggests a greater security risk for escorts providing BDSM-services than other sexsellers. Instead, the escorts themselves characterize the phenomenon by straightforwardness, upright communication, and pre-agreed rules of the interaction.

Abstract:
The focus of this research is an exploration of BDSM experience as it emerges from the complex interactions of kink activities and relationships. It argues that practices which are ostensibly not religious can be understood as contributing to personal processes of religioning. Enriching debates about living religion, I offer the idea of gestalt as a tool to address the question of how examples of a given practice which is a part of religioning might be distinguished from those where it is not. A gestalt is something felt to be more or other than the sum of its constituent parts; it is an emergent, felt quality that is neither perceptual nor cognitive. A sense of gestalt arises unpredictably from an individual's whole experience of a given phenomenon as it is integrated into their world and, when it appears, it changes the value, significance and meaning of the phenomenon. Thus, kink experience is presented as a crucible where personal outcomes and meaning can be distilled from the concentrated matter therein. I argue that the significance of a given experience is not located solely within any intrinsic quality ascribed to it, rather, it is in what the experiencer subsequently constructs from the refined experience.

Abstract:
Det finns ett stigma runt individer som praktiserar BDSM och lever i relationer med någon form av maktförskjutning. Den här studien gjordes för att öka förståelsen för individer som själva valt att leva i en relation med inslag av maktförskjutning. Studien handlade om huruvida maktförskjutning påverkar individers syn på sig själva och deras personliga utveckling. Sju män och sju kvinnor intervjuades, både dominanta och undergivna. Resultatet gav fyra teman och åtta subteman. Centralt i resultatet var kommunikation, dominans, kärlek och personlig utveckling. Deltagarna berättade om hur relationen påverkat dem på olika sätt och genom att leva i en relation med maktförskjutning upplevdes en förstärkt självkänsla. De effekter som bland andra belystes av deltagarna, var att acceptera sig själv och att växa som människa och partner. Kärlek, kommunikation och samtycke är några essentiella begrepp inom BDSM-relationer, vilket även är vad majoriteten av deltagarna själva nämner som faktorer till deras personliga utveckling.

Sheppard, Emma. "Kinked and crippled : disabled BDSM practitioners' experiences and embodiments of pain." Thesis, Edge Hill University, 2017. http://repository.edgehill.ac.uk/9950/.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis explores the experience of pain for people who live with chronic pain and engage in BDSM1 (or ‘kinky’) pain play. It is situated within disability studies, taking the position that chronic pain is a disability, and in the use of crip theory to explore narratives of experience. The narratives, told through multiple, detailed interviews were explored in the contexts of crip theory, disability, and medical and social understandings of pain. The thesis addresses three core aims; firstly, to hear narratives of experiences of chronic pain and BDSM play. Secondly, to explore those narratives to reveal experiences and understandings of pain sought by those who live with chronic pain and also engage in BDSM. Finally, to challenge normative conceptions of pain through a critical crip reading of the narratives. The narratives revealed a range of complex experiences. I drew out these narratives in three broad themes: the role of crip time in living with chronic pain; the multiple uses of BDSM – including pleasure and control of the self – and the role of stigma and abjection. The thesis has made a number of original contributions to knowledge. Firstly, it revealed how pain is discursively constructed as needing control and containment, but how non-normative methods of control and bodily engagement are not necessarily understood as such. Secondly, the thesis exposes how pain is assumed to be wholly destructive to the self, but instead ways to integrate pain into the self are sought. Thirdly, it adds to crip theory by expanding the notion of crip time to reflect the experience of living with chronic pain. Finally, by demonstrating how the narratives challenge understandings of the ‘normal,’ as reflected in discourses of chronic pain. The thesis thus exposes how normative constructions of pain are a part of the performance and construction of able-bodyminded heterosexuality.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to hightlight experiences of living in a relationship where BDSM is being exercised. The acronym is an umbrella term for bondage/discipline, dominance/submission and sadomasochism. The study is based on qualitative interviews with five persons who define themselves as BDSM practitioners. The overall questions of this study are: How does the BDSM practice appear in everyday life? How did the practice start and how has it developed over time? What's included in the sexual BDSM practice? The empirical material has been analyzed with interactionism as the theoritical framework.The picture that emerges is complex. To define oneself as a BDSM practitioner might mean different things for different people where the extent of the practice, what it consists of and how integrated it is in the lives of people might vary from person to person. But despite differences there are also recurring, common patterns in the stories of the informants. All of them describe the practice in positive terms. To a great extent the practice has to do with sexuality where an explicit power exchange, an assuming of dominant and submissive roles and an everyday life filled with rituals, rules and agreements are described as being key elements. Punishment, in the form of physical pain or humiliation, is common when the rules are not obeyed. All the interviewees use safewords to make sure both are comfortable about what's happening. Some sort of tool is utilized by all. The most common are whips, bonds, chains and locks, paddles, clamps/clothespins, knives, butt plugs and ropes. There's an occupation among the informants to find and to form strategies to cope and to adapt the BDSM role to other roles and here the parental role is the most apparent. Also an ambition to create a balance between the personal norms and the norms of the BDSM culture and those of the overall society can be seen. The interviewees express a search for answers to why one practices BDSM. In this process they return to experiences, almost exclusively of a destructive nature, and they wonder if these experiences have affected their sexuality and their preference for BDSM. It's like this even if the common attitude in society actually has become more accepting, for example with the help of media, recent research and the fact that it's not anymore is considered being a disorder.

Abstract:
Straipsnyje analizuojami individualaus buitinių nuotekų biologinio valymo (IBNV) įrenginiu pasiekiami pagrindiniai išvalymo rodikliai (BDS7, nitratų azoto, amonio azoto ir fosfatų fosforo koncentracijos). Tiriamas Vilniaus mieste esantis, mažų valymo įrenginių grupei priklausantis AT-6, kurio projektinis našumas 0,54 m3 /h, vidutinė apkrova teršalais – 0,24 kg BDS5/d. Tyrimai parodė, kad išvalytų nuotekų BDS7 koncentracija nė karto neviršijo 17 mg O2/l, o tai yra aukštas išvalymo rodiklis (du kartus mažesnė koncentracija, nei vidutinė metinė DLK mažosioms (iki 5 m3 /d) nuotekų valykloms. Pagal nitratų azoto ir amonio azoto koncentracijas yra pasiekiamas aukštas nuotekų išvalymo laipsnis. Šių medžiagų yra 10–11 kartų mažiau, nei gali būti geriamajame vandenyje pagal HN 24:2003 (tai svarbu, nes valytos nuotekos yra infiltruojamos į gruntą ir gali užteršti gruntinius vandenis). Fosfatų fosforo (PO4-P) koncentracijos išvalytose nuotekose buvo 2–3 kartus didesnės, nei nurodomos bendrojo fosforo DLK didesnėms (nuo 5 m3 /d iki 10000 GE) valykloms (2 mg/l). Šis fosforas aplinkosauginiu aspektu yra nepavojingas, nes nuotekos nėra išleidžiamos į paviršinį vandens telkinį. Likutinės 3,6–6,6 mg/l PO4-P koncentracijos išvalytose nuotekose gali būti paaiškinamos ilgu veikliojo dumblo amžiumi (30 parų) ir retu (1–2 kartai per metus) perteklinio dumblo pašalinimu iš įrenginio. Bendrai tirtasis įrenginys pagal išmatuotus rodiklius aplinkosauginiu požiūriu yra saugus ir išvalytos nuotekos nepablogina gamtos būklės.

Abstract:
Tirtas biologinio valymo įrenginio AT-6 darbas žiemos laikotarpiu, oro temperatūrai svyruojant nuo –23 iki +6oC. Nustatyti šiuo įrenginiu pasiekiami pagrindiniai nuotekų išvalymo rodikliai (ChDS, BDS7, SM, N bei P junginių koncentracijos). Tuo lai-kotarpiu buvo imami ir tiriami veikliojo dumblo mėginiai. Tyrimų laikotarpiu analizuotame įrenginyje išvalytų nuotekų BDS7 koncentracija nė karto neviršijo 17 mg O2/l. Žiemos sąlygomis organiniai teršalai (pagal SM, ChDSCr, BDS7,) iš nuotekų buvo išvalomi 2–5 % geriau, nei deklaruoja įrenginio gamintojai. Azoto bei fosforo junginių šalinimas nebuvo efektyvus. Iki –17– –23oC naktimis atvėsdavęs oras neigiamai veikė jautrių nitrifikuojančiųjų bakterijų veiklą, todėl sutriko nitrifikacijos procesas.

Abstract:
Nagrinėjama Kauno marių poveikio Nemuno vandens būklei problema. Darbo tikslas – įvertinti Kauno marių vandens būklę ir Kauno marių poveikį Nemuno upės vandens kokybei. Paviršinio vandens būklė vertinama pagal hidrocheminius rodiklius, kurie buvo imti iš 16 skirtingų Kauno marių vietų 4 skirtingais metų sezonais. Buvo vertinama ekologinio potencialo klasė pagal biocheminį deguonies suvartojimą (BDS7) ir bendrojo azoto (Nb) koncentracijas. Nustatyta, kad pagal BDS7 vertes Kauno marios atitinka geros ekologinio potencialo klasės vertes. Pagal Nb visose vietose Kauno marios neatitinka geros ekologinio potencialo klasės vertės. Nustatyta neigiama Kauno marių įtaka Nemuno upės būklei pagal BDS7 vertę, bendrojo azoto koncentraciją ir amonio azoto koncentraciją. Rezultatai rodo, kad Kauno marios daro neigiamą įtaką Nemuno paviršinio vandens būklei.

Abstract:
Abstract A knowledge-based Bumper Design System (BDS) has been developed which automatically generates optimized conceptual bumper beams which meet manufacturing and product performance requirement. The BDS has captured and refined the corporate design knowledge of the product design engineer, the CAD designer, the CAE analyst and manufacturer. The BDS enables the bumper design engineers to evaluate multiple design alternatives quickly and early in the design process. It also automates repetitive bumper analysis tasks. The purpose of the paper is to describe the BDS. A description of the Knowledge Based Engineering (KBE) methodology used to create the BDS is given, as well as an overview of bumper designs and design requirements. An overview of the BDS software design, user interface, and a sample run are also presented.

Abstract:
Economics of business decision-making (BDM) is target-oriented into management of the economic flow of business activities. Has a major impact on the level of quality of enterprise's operation. Business decision-making (BDM) is based on information, which shows the characteristics of the decisions and provides an additional and necessary knowledge. The main field of the management of the BDM is presented by the economic treatment of decisions, which are based on various information. The picture of the BDM is illustrated by various sorts, types and forms of information that are primarily created by the target- oriented information systems. These ensure a corresponding structured quality information for BDM at the selected levels of management. Due to the tradition, the usual business information hardly meets criteria of contemporary holism.
