What is a dungeon?

What the hell is this LDH place all about?
It could be you have stumbled onto this web site by accident. Maybe you have discovered that your partner has an interest in this kind of thing and want to find out more. Perhaps you have heard talk about the book "
Fifty Shades of Grey" or heard Rhianna singing about fetish things, like "chains and whips that excite her", and it is all just a total puzzle to you as to what all this kinky stuff is all about.

So you are a bit confused? Well as you explore the wonderful world of BDSM the chances are you will become more so. It's a world of fantasy and dreams and therefore rationality does not really enter into it. It's more about feelings than understanding. Exciting feelings, sexual feelings, good feelings and sharing them with people you really trust and care about in a safe and inspiring environment.

Those feelings are in the "bones" for some... part of their identity and those feelings have always been there. For others the feelings can be developed... if they so desire it.

First of all a BDSM Dungeon is all about pleasure, it's not about pain (although some people get pleasure from pain and they are known as Masochists). Some people get pleasure from making others suffer under their domination and they are known as Sadists (or coalition governments).

The Rules
The Pleasure Rule is Dungeon Rule Number One; BDSM is all about pleasure.

Dungeon Rule Number Two; A BDSM dungeon is a place for consenting adults.

Dungeon Rule Number Three; There are no more rules... just the ones you make up for yourselves (or the ones set by the Dungeon Keeper and they only apply to his/her dungeon).

Play Time
When we were children we (well most of us) were easily able to enter a world of make believe where anything was possible. Those make believe games might have involved dressing up in outlandish costumes or improvising with cardboard boxes, bits of old junk or purpose built toys to create a imaginary world where in anything we wanted to happen could.

As we grow older some of us retain the ability to play like that but as adults we are able to weave in sexual elements as well and so the games become even more thrilling and pleasurable.

A BDSM dungeon is not damp, or cold or uncomfortable, but it may appear that way in a fantasy. It is a venue which is designed for adults to share and enjoy their sexual power play with other adults. It has the atmosphere, security, equipment and toys that enable people to explore their BDSM fantasies with each other safely. Rather like a theatre it has all the props, all the scenery, all the spaces to act out the scenes and roles required.

A good dungeon has luxury and comfort in equal measure to pain and bondage. It should be abundantly resourced for punishment, reward, worship and sensuality. It can exist just in the imagination or, perhaps, in the heart of an ancient woodland. It is the product of desire and obsession. It can be created where ever the magic is required.

The fantasy creates the Dungeon (or the desire for it). Then the dungeon will fuel the desire still further.

I did say you might remain confused...
