Certainly you don't sound stupid. I think maybe the thread was getting the two confused a bit with actual rape, rape fantasy and bdsm. I could be wrong but I still haven't met anyone into sm that wants to experience actually being raped. Bdsm culture teaches respect, consent, safe sex and communication. In fact, if the guidelines suggested are followed, participants review the role play together verbally before any fantasy is attempted. Including any known limitations and both parties adhere to those limitations out of respect for one another. Most dominants are very compassionate towards their submissives and ensure their safety at all times.
In certain studies I've read about, most bdsm participants showed no history of sexual, verbal or physical abuse and were considered normal and mentally healthy. Which is contrary to popular belief. I don't know the validity of these studies but I think they are worth noting.
I would encourage you to read the book 'SM 101' to become a little more educated on how bdsm works. It is helpful and enlightening. Even for those who have no interest in this type of sexual lifestyle.
Bingo. Anything that liberates the market, be it a new fangled currency like BitCoin, is a plus in my book. Noticed your comment in the Mises site; good points again. Hopefully the rest of the Austrians will realize BitCoin's potential, although I still remain cautious of it as a store of value.
He had surprisingly soft hands for an old drummer. On one song, they had some of their old concerts mashed together on a big screen next to his drum kit, he said 1 song 1 song! And turned up the music so loud you felt the bass as you ate!!! It was a lovely encounter, odd he owns it in my backyard practically!! Literally, like you cross a street there it is! To our surprise it was excellent, his old case covers on the lights in the ceiling too and he's just a super nice guy. Very, very English nice XD Delicate yet firm little hand shake!!!
Thank you, I have not. Name sounds familiar though. Do you have a link (lazy on a weekend)?
I think economics generally seems quite simple when not manipulated. Trying to understand all the situationally specific implications of the manipulations of all the central banks and their TBTF counterparts is something else entirely.
oh sorry, forgot to respond. Yes, they are planning on making movies of ALL the berserk manga, including the Golden Age Arc, which they've already have done 2 movies from.
I'm a lay person but that second paragraph was excellent. I think many people such as myself intuitively realise this but feel frustrated with their inability to hold sway against the logicians.
