    Most people in the BDSM scene don’t seem to understand what consent is. These apps are just following the parallel “demand forgiveness later” model.

      What do you mean? Can you elaborate?

        Essentially, the expansion of awareness of the BDSM scene starting mid-'00s led to terrible problems that have yet to be fixed. I tread lightly on this topic on Beehaw, as many don’t want to hear raw thoughts and experiences.
