As a masochistic woman, I feel attacked. 😅
Which is… a good thing for you?
This raises the good question of whether masochists need consent in some situations
Edit: from the severe negative feedback, I presume then that user pzzzt has legitimate cause to feel attacked, and that user Kevo is false in their presumption that this is a good thing for them. Or we might all be overreacting to some risqué banter. Real thinker.
Consent is the line that separates kink from abuse. It has to be the thing that people who do kink treat as the most sacred thing. If consent were not there, “doms” would be committing horrific acts of abuse.
The things I have let men to me have been only okay, and only enjoyable, because they were done to me with my consent. Taking a crop after a careful warmup by a partner who asked you in detail about what parts are okay to hit, and how you would like to be treated afterwards, and how long you’d like it to last - this is fun. Having a hookup spank or choke you out of nowhere? Not fun. Even if I enjoy spanking (or being choked, but choking is genuinely not safe and it’s concerning how common it is) - when I don’t know what the boundaries are anymore - I can’t relax and enjoy myself.
I lived as a 24/7 “you can hit me whenever you want” painslut, and even then, there were days where I didn’t want to be hit. Even the most extreme masochists are still people, and are still going to have limits.
Any kink community worth its salt will pillory you (not in a fun way) for not taking consent seriously. That’s how you can tell if they are safe.
I guess I didn’t really understand what a masochist actually meant, as I attached some kind of sadist connotation to it, when it’s just a pain-related kink. Thanks for the extra context, and I will try to update my understanding
Healthy sadism and masochism are when adults come together to talk about things that they enjoy doing or being done to them, and then doing those things in a way that is fun for both parties. What that looks like can look like a whole bunch of things, even things that we would see as actual crimes if they were being done to people who had not said “yes I want this.” (nothing like some light waterboarding)
Man, reading a Robert Evans Cracked article from 2016 takes me back.
I loved Cracked so much before they fired everyone who people liked 7 years ago.
In FromSoft games it’s the complete opposite.
I lost 19,000 souls falling off a random ledge eeargh 💦
Anyone who’s played Dead By Daylight can attest that all the characters hurt sounds like the right side
Dead By Daylight 100% xD
When I see these memes, I always rememmber Unreal Tournament 99, where female death sounds are decidedly unsexy, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEv6IB2TRAQ%3Ft%3D444 starting at 7:24
Maybe because of that “throat vibration” effect? I wonder if they got it right on the first try, or had a first draft and had to scrap it and come up with sounds that couldn’t be mistaken for anything else
None of that sounds sexy
Have you read the comment you are replying to, be honest
I misread it haha
Dude read throat vibration and immediately clicked that link. Lol
Dude literally most of your latest posts are about porn/hentai/sex💀
I can only imagine what it’s like being part of the recording team when it comes to getting the hurt sounds. Probably something like this.
you should hear yourself while climaxing and then see if you can make any distinction
When my partner cums it sounds kind of like, how I imagine, someone getting stabbed would sound and I should be used to it by now, but it off catches me off guard
oh I just scream for a while tbh
I don’t even have to be orgasming. I just scream sometimes. Some people say I’m quirky.
based and AAAAAAAA pilled
A women being hurt 9 times of 10 is screaming. Imagine how annoying that’d be in a game.
The “women are always screaming” stereotype is sexist. It’s a direct extension of the pseudoscientific hysteria diagnosis that used to be commonly accepted. “A women,” as you put it, might scream, and you might find that annoying. Women as a category have higher pitched voices on average, and the line between “reasonable yelling” and “hysterical screaming” is often just one of pitch, even when the cause for alarm or injury is the same.
Additionally, neither I nor any of the women in my life “scream” in response to injury. We yell in pain just like someone with a masculine voice, if a bit higher pitched. Some may, but it’s not common and is usually reserved for situations of extreme alarm or fear, or occasionally excitement. Any time a woman does scream on video, you always see someone in the comments complaining about how annoying women screaming is. The same is never said about men screaming, unless they scream “like a girl.”
9/10 times. How out of touch are you?
they’re a lemmy.ml user, so the answer is usually ‘very’
Are we criticizing women voice actors here or are we assuming voice actors are given direction to do this?
I would imagine they are given directions to do it, or if not, it might just be that some people perceive the hurt sounds to sound like the right side to them.
I think it’s the latter. I once had to take care of a sick friend who was pretty much puking her guts out. Her moans sounded arousing. Of course she wasn’t intentionally doing that, it’s just our own male brains playing tricks on us.
