Kink of the Week Jan 1-16: Marks

Time for another redo topic.

Let’s talk about marks – specifically the marks left on your body – or the body of one you have been playing with – after you have been playing; Bruises, Welts, Scratches, Bites to name just some.

How do you feel about getting or giving marks? Do you treasure them, or can you take or leave them? Are the marks you get (or give) part of your kink, and have some deeper meaning, or just an outcome of what you do?

Do you consider yourself a “marks fetishist”?  Do you desire them, negotiate for scenes that will cause them, or are maybe even feel disappointed if you don’t get (or give) them? Are getting or causing marks, or the sight of them on on your body or the body of the person you play with, a turn on for you?

Are marks sexy? Are they a badge of honour? Do you poke at them, sigh over them, look at them in the mirror, maybe even take pictures of them?

What about those of you with multiple relationships or play partners? Does that affect whether you give or get marks, or how, when or where?

Or perhaps marks are something to be avoided or hidden, or that cause embarrassment. Or maybe you just don’t like them.

I want to hear about how you all feel about marks this week – and maybe even inspire some of you to show them off!
