Exhibitionism

[Mistress Dalisay]

An act of exposing in a public or semi-public context one's intimate parts – for example, the breasts, genitals or buttocks.

What is the appeal for you? The idea of being caught or having people watch?

I love all these questions!

It’s the latter for me. I really don’t like pulling “innocent people” into my play, so getting caught feels unfair to them. &nbsp
 

But being the only naked person in a room? Or one of a few? So hot. I’ve always fantasized about being one of the leashed pets at an BDSM resorts or farms, wearing a cage or maybe jock and nothing else. Talk about everyone knowing you know your place!

I've enjoyed being dominated in front of a female audience.
I feel like I'm giving then all pleasure at the same time.

I can’t say I would want to bring unexpected people into play.

But the humiliation factor of being an object for a room full of dominants does get my mind going (sorry Mistress Kang, sometimes I can’t help it)

I guess it’s the idea of people watching is what does it.  Especially if I’m the only naked person in the room.  A session with every available mistress would be a fantasy of mine, even with some only watching or hanging out with disregard to my being there.

Hmmmmm? If this hinges upon the involuntary participation of those who see the exposure then I am at a loss to explain the motivation. Further I wouldn't care to expose myself to anyone who is not a willing viewer. In a dungeon setting the idea of other Mistresses or even other spectators who have my permission to watch is another question altogether. That for me is a very exciting prospect. The idea of getting punished and otherwise used or abused by a Mistress or having my naughtiest secrets exposed to them is a tremendously emancipating thought.

I love being watched. At a BDSM party I was whipped while many stood around cheering. I felt like I was being used to entertain them while being naked and vulnerable. At a swingers party I enjoy watching as much as being watched by others.

I don't know if it's an "appeal" for me, but the interesting part of it for me is that in my opinion, our clothing is our "armor" in social contexts, so-to-speak. Clothing conveys a message, especially in a BDSM dynamic. Sometimes clothes are social armor in an explicit sense, such as when people were T-shirts with logos or quotes. There's the message and the subtext. "I'm wearing this brand, and this brand is known for this feeling, so associate that feeling with me." Or maybe you're not wearing something so obvious, like a button-up collared shirt and slacks. However, this still sends a message. It could signal membership in a group, "I'm like all the other people in collared shirts and slacks" or it could convey a personal sense of style. In this realm of BDSM, the leather, latex, heels, stockings, etc. usually convey a message of dominance with a subtext of maximum female power, "Not only am I sexy, but I can use it to control you - submit!" 

Conversely, the lack of clothing to me feels like power stripped away (figuratively and literally). I have no armor, I have no defenses, I am naked. I am vulnerable. In a private BDSM session, maybe the nakedness serves a practical purpose - I am physically vulnerable to impact and other things. In a social setting, I'm mentally vulnerable - who is looking? are they judging me? are they laughing at me? what do they think of me? With clothes, we control how we appear in social settings, but without them we do not. In addition, it's likely heightened by the fact that everyone else is clothed. In such an exibitionist setting, for example, I am vulnerable and everyone else isn't, which can amplify a D/s power dynamic, I think.
