Does your family know?

[denuseri]

A third party saftey call, doesnt have to know what your doing, as far as they are conserned you could be simpley sitting holding hands the whole time or maby you are having vanila sex , eaither way it doesnt matter...what does is that they know where you are and who your with and when your expected to call and or be at what time etc.

If your making up reasons or attempting to justify coming out about your kink as a way to try and force yourself to tell your famiely members about what you do in the bedroom you have other issues at work. This kind of "coming out compulsion" is a normal enough phenomenon, but not nessesary to make the saftey call system work.

Yes I can respect that, I just also think it's an even extra safety measure if the so-called third party knows all the details instead of only half the story. Not essential of course, but the more a trusted third party can know about your situation the better IMHO.

As the title of this thread suggests, I am interested in knowing how other people have (or haven't) broached the topic of BDSM with their family. In no way do I have to justify coming out to my family and neither do I have to force myself - it's my choice if I tell them but I'm hardly obliged to. I am just curious to know how common it is that people have explained their lifestyle to family members and any issues that might surround that. Thus all the questions posed in my initial post still stand guys :-)

Thanks for your post karley, I enjoyed hearing about your own personal experience.
