One of my favorite types of sessions is exploring and playing with taboos. Taboos, what is culturally or socially forbidden, is part of what defines a group of people. Those who don't play along are shunned or marginalized. But nobody fits in completely, we are all drawn to one forbidden thing or another. We are drawn to these things because what is forbidden holds mystery, holds unknown keys to shadowed parts of ourselves.
My favorite taboo may be mixing sex in the workplace. Stuffy offices, noisy factories. We are told constantly never to form relationships in the workplace, yet it happens. There is something in blurring those lines, in giving into animal drives despite logical reasoning. I also like the idea of bringing that erotic, intimate energy into places so often devoid of it.
And of course, coming to see a escort has its own taboo. Two people meeting in secret, creating something in a container made of shadow and secrecy. It reminds me so much of magicians coming together for a secret sex rite. Even just indulging in your own pleasure has been taboo due to this country's puritanical roots.
A more private taboo is my desire for submission. It's not secret that I tend towards the submissive in the bedroom and in play, but I rarely see the full range of it except with my own lovers. Much of it I would only indulge in with those I have a strong trust in. It takes a lot of trust for me to truly give up power.
There's lots of other taboos I like to explore, but I'll save them for another time.
