innocent

 

Am I crazy in that I don’t think innocent is equal to naivety? I have always thought of innocent as sweet, caring, and lacking in ill intent. I mean there are different degrees of it, as a newborn will have a unique brand of innocence, but so too can a senior rocking on the porch, or a civilian caught by combat.

I know what people mean when they speak of sex in terms of innocence, generally a lack of sexual understanding, passion or carnal knowledge. I would say someone who doesn’t understand physical and psychological romance to be naive, but that doesn’t make them innocent.

And thusly someone passionate and sexually active, I have found, can still be the picture of innocence, depending on the person. I have met so many wonderful people in my lifestyle that I could refer to as such. There is a sweet lovely switch (mostly dom) woman I played with back in the interior, and I would have to say she has an innocence to her. I would hardly say she lacks skill, passion or knowledge of the human body's breaking points, but she is of the utmost good intent and kindness (especially to her playmates).

I see it especially in other submissive’s. Sweet caring and innocent, wanting only for their master or mistress’s pleasure and joy. There are many selfish and not so innocent subs too, but that's besides the point.

I guess what I’m trying to say is, I would really like it if we as a culture, especially we in the bdsm lifestyle, stopped using the concept of innocent as a bad thing.

my two cents.
