BDSM on a commercial airplane

Hmmm…. What do you all think of this? I saw this on FB. The comments regarding this go from one end of the spectrum to the other in pro and con.

In my personal opinion everyone is allowed there interests but this is shoving it down peoples throats and not in a very tasteful way either. There are subtle ways to do the same without making others feel uncomfortable.

100% with Suz on this. Keep it private or within a community of like minded friends.

Yes, I agree with that as well. Nice post Suz!

We just saw this video in a YouTube mix video.

It seemed inappropriate for such a public situation. People shouldn't shove their kinks down the throats of those not interested. Her just wearing her collar, without the leash, would have shown their relationship to each other.

Yes, maybe just a buttplug would have been a better option.

A remote controlled one with EStim. 👹

Over 20 years ago wearing a collar like that would have been considered unacceptable but now with the number of books on BDSM mainstream, the Goth crowd, and fashion it is more acceptable. Now I don't think they wore that through the TSA checkpoint and was properly scanned with maybe a few questions but in today's world it would pass. People have been known to wear chastity belts through the checkpoint and not an issue if the TSA people have been properly trained. However, the leash crossed the line on that one and should have been tucked away. If you look closely at the 8 second video clip you will see a very dominate/submissive interaction going on. Notice what little of the face you can see, head is tilted down in part so she can see where she is going and not running into her Dom/Master. The other thing you see is her right hand on his shoulder which she is trying to maintain that connection to him and that is like a safety blanket. Submissives/slaves will do that to keep that physical connection and not feel lost at some distance. In my mind I clearly add this up and know that she was in that headspace/mindset as a submissive/slave and collars will do that.

I think it’s disgusting to do that in public. Especially on an airplane. Neither one of them are thinking clearly

I am as liberal as they come but there is such a thing called class and respect for others and i feel the same way with how people now swear in public in front of anyone at any time it's just disgusting

The interaction that Master Dorson pointed out was very instructive. It's not in my wheelhouse but it taught me something about those relationships. Very interesting.

If you want BDSM let any stewardess know you need the isle chair( normally ticket counter will let plane and ground crew know and you will get put on golf cart and taken to your plane and transferred) , she will happily assist you in and strap you up to the chair , for insurance reasons you will be firmly packaged with about ten attachment points to get you safely to your seat or toilet , hint we hate it ,so feel free to bitch & moan they’re used to it . Of course the “happy ending“ is when you land and they take you off first and strand You at the gate because they almost guaranteed broke your wheelchair ( about 3 months ago a disabled passenger died from an airline breaking her custom wheelchair 35 days without her chair cost her life ) .

Actions and words have consequences. I agree that such public displays, especially in an environment viewers cannot leave, are, at best, gauche.

A different perspective might be the discomfort bus riders felt when Claudette Colvin or Rosa Parks refused to move to the back of the bus. No, that was not kinky, but the other riders were forced to be in closer proximity to Black women than they wanted to be.

Any arguments, pro or con, should define the difference between personal taste and personal liberty and at what point taste tops (😉) liberty. Or vice versa.

I will agree with Annie2 there is a such a thing as class and respect. Come on people……..

Tasteless. Do not push your kinks on others.

I wouldn't go as far as this guy. No need to impress.

Nowadays, people seems to be more worried about showing nudity to minors than any harmful sexual activity. Nudity is natural and children shouldn't be grown to think it as some absolute taboo. What is actually harmful is sexual influence or behavior models before their own development level and experiences have created a base to understand and process it properly. Healthy path of development is first experience/learn what our bodies feel, develop fantasies around it, have real experiences with partner, have more fantasies, learn to like what is done to us, rather than needing something special to be done and only at the end try things like bondage or bdsm to avoid getting bored (we are programmed to do it after around 7y with a same partner).

That's why BDSM is maybe one of the most harmful influence for children or teenager. It's like jumping on the end on very beginning, and should be kept away from public.

I work in the airline industry. The flight attendants are no-nonsense, zero tolerance on many things. Add to that, the idiots who cause disturbances, and the aholes who spy on their fellow passengers, and videotape them, because they don’t have a life. It’s very easy to get kicked off a flight, and even charged with some bs crime. So, BDSM, on a flight? Keep dreaming.

There's a time and a place for everything. This was neither. No class.

I’m glad to see most people here thought this inappropriate. I just wonder if the sort of people who would defend such a thing understand that they are propelling an inevitable cultural push back that none of us will appreciate.

This was total bullshit to be out there in public.
