Where is the line?


Recommended Posts

I’m curious to hear from both sides on this, but especially the Brats.
What is your favorite way to test boundaries without actually crossing the line into breaking protocol or causing real frustration? For the Dominants, what is the exact moment a Brat's behavior shifts from 'cute and motivating' to 'you've officially pushed it too far???

Also curious 🙋‍♂️ from my experience, *** has been the go-to

I feel it’s different for every partnership. That’s what safe words are for

Dom- Disrespect is when things aren’t meant to get a rise out of you but a direct insult to your character. Being a dom is HEAVILY centered around self respect. Creating our boundaries as big dudes is often laughable but still necessary. If you can’t keep your composure, you are not a safe dom.

These are amazing answers, both of which I agree, but unfortunately the age group being 20-30’s are just another type of kinky 😂

I'm super sarcastic, and it only works with really masculine, dominant men who are completely confident in themselves. Otherwise, they view it as combative. I'm sarcastic and playful, never disrespectful.

I like to give an occasional wiggle when being asked to hold still or if he’s close jump on for a kiss , running if he tries to catch me - just making it playful .. depends on the dynamic though - some doms want you behaved others enjoy the additional play and enjoy correcting you after …

This should all be communicated and worked out by those in the dynamic, leaving dedicated and clear space and time to regularly review and check in how it's all working as things develop.

Boundaries are important for both sides of the slash, as is consent, so when I read the words "too far" in your post, I'm picturing something that crosses my boundaries. That is something to be handled with an open conversation in clear air, meaning outside of the D/s dynamic. I've had subs tell me they want to push me to the point of truly losing control, like it would be a fun thing to try, but if I lose control then I wouldn't be dominant, I'd just be an ***r. I'm not okay with that - I'm a wrangler, not an arsehole.

If by "too far" you just mean when does an agreed punishment get earned within the dynamic? Again, it depends on the dynamic and what's been agreed but that's what makes brats so much fun - let your guard down for a second and they'll eat you alive! It's a battle of wits and creativity. Honestly I've never felt more loved than when a brat plots the longcon and puts a ton of work into a masterpiece of sheer fuckery that I never saw coming, knowing (and hoping for) the trouble she'll be in a result. Brats are the best.

Everyone is different. What might be fine in one dynamic will be completely disrespectful in another. Ethical bratting demands negotiation just like everything else does. Bratting should create engagement, not override consent or emotional safety. If someone is upset rather than challenged, the line’s already been crossed.

Both of us use the trafffic light system including fior day to day betting outside the bedroom. Only had to use this once.

3 taps also works. Like when she can’t breathe and needs to come up for air.

I’m sassy in general so I am constantly testing boundaries by being sassy and teasing. My punishment is spankings. So when I push too far when I hear my dom say a number (which is how many spankings I’ve earned) I know it’s time to stop.

Du****

When I knock this cock on her back door. Then I slowly push inside, opening her up like a hot knife going through butter. Thats when she knows she's pushed too far.

Far I’ve gotten is telling my ex dom to fuck off- and even then I got in trouble so it was way too far
But it was also funny so I’d do it
Again🤭

For me, it’s usually malicious compliance. Occasionally, refusal to do something.

I don't cross lines I know are too far. This is why communication is key! Yes I'll tease and run and play but the worst I'll do is say fuck you or make me and I'm clearly being playful not mean ...... And I only ever say the fuck you part of I have the understanding with my Dom that I'm not doing it to be mean and they understand it's not to hurt them but to spur them into action and play and be dominant

That is a difficult question to answer.. as every brat will push the limits, its part of their nature.
As for when they have crossed into 'now your for it' territory, it again depends on the situation or expectation.
Many will do things when you're not looking, from a wiggle when told to stay still, to a facial gesture.. but even then, they do it in the hope of being caught.
One of the big no-nos for me during a serious play is swearing.
That infraction will result in a lesson in application and discomfort found in hojo-jutsu and a few red strips left on their backside, plus the application of a ball gag while sitting or squatting in a stress position to reflect on what they have done until they are ready to apologise.

Sk****

The line for me is surprises/anything not discussed. like say a sub wants to be tied, but says they want some shackles that snap so they can escape in an emergency (thats safe and smart), and they say they'll only do so in said emergency, but then do it 'to be cute' or 'be a brat' mid scene. Thats just manipulative and shitty and im 100% done with that person.

Now if they tell me beforehand they want to pull a fast escape and be chased and spanked or punished however for it, that is 100% cool and hot fun.

I like planned scenes. It doesnt need to be 100% scripted, but we need a 'storyboard' or outline to follow. We can even improv unplanned new sequences using a repertoire of storyboards weve done before. They can be mixed and matched to create something new.

But were NOT about to do is go completely off the rails from what we discussed. I'd honestly just cancel a relationship over it. Most any bratty behavior is something I would happily consent to, so long as we discuss what tools/methods/punishments said brat consents to me using to deal with it. Im not going to be put in a spot where they get to secretly plan some bs, and I have to instantaneously resolve how to deal with it, without being able to discuss if they consent to whatever punishment. That is not safe or sane, its not open or honest communication, so violates my core principles.

gr****

I'm a brat full *** and I teeter tot on that shit especially if I'm not getting my needs or wants in any way met

My sub/brat and I both have a traffic light system, which we use outside the bedroom, as we like to tease each other around the edges of our relationship. I think this is important for Doms as well as brats: they need to be able to say when enough is enough or they’re not in the mood.

I’ve only had to use this once with my brat, she’s had to use it a few times with me. This has all been good calibration as we learn our limits with each other.

Delighted she’s now on this site although I nearly spat my drink out when I learnt I couldn’t access her photos or comment on her posts (that didn’t last long!)
