My advanced sexology class went on a field trip to an S&M dungeon this afternoon.
Just getting there was an adventure, including taking the most roundabout way (just so Mark could get In N' Out... he ended up getting Taco Bell), and my Jeep's electrical system completely shutting off while going down a huge hill on the canyon toll road that caused my steering wheel to lock and my brakes to go out. That was fun.
When we finally got there it took a few minutes for the whole place to sink in.
There were actually a bunch of people there to let us try out the different S&M activities.
I ended up being flogged (twice, strapped down the second time), and was the only person in the class to take a 9 tail and a sing tail bull whip.
It was awesome.
When I started the second round there were like 3 people in the room and by the time I finished taking the single tail half my class had come in and started cheering when I turned around. haha.
It really does give you an amazing natural endorphin high, and mellows you out. I compared it closely to the acquired satisfaction you get from the pain of a tattoo.
I know it sounds like some crazy, twisted, sick shit, but it's not at all what most people perceive it to be. It's really different when you've studied it so in depth.
The only thing is my back looks like, well... you can imagine what a 9 tail and bull whip will do to it. And that's not mentioning the giant hickey/bruise I have on my stomach from the fire suction cups.
Now I just have to explain to my parents what the hell happened to me on my "pshycology" field trip next time they see me with my shirt off. lol
