· Must Limits: An activity that is a requirement or a requisite condition
of a scene. One example might be a bottom’s requirement that aftercare be
provided following a scene, or a Top’s requirement that his play partners
sign a declaration of good health prior to any scene.
· Time Limits: A limitation on how long a scene can last, or a set time
where it must end.
· No Limits: The term is sometimes used as a synonym for Total Power
Exchange (TPE), but most often refers to a consensual agreement between
a Top and bottom that there will be no limits of any kind in an ensuing
scene or relationship. This is generally considered to be an extremely
unwise thing to do, since even the most experienced and hardened BDSM
practitioners have some limits.

with sex. (See also: Age play, AB/DL, Daddy Dom, Diaper play, Infantilism)

sadism and BDSM, there are clinical psychological classifications of sexual

· Class I Sexual Masochist: Bothered by, but not seeking out, fantasies.
May be preponderantly sadists with minimal masochistic tendencies and/or
non-sadomasochistic with minimal masochistic tendencies
· Class II Sexual Masochist: Equal mix of sadistic and masochistic
