The lived realizations in polyamory that intimacy is unique to each person in our lives, that when you eliminate the need to reserve a part of yourself for one someone loving and exploring yourself and others becomes so unburdened and free... I’m really missing that magic. ❤️✨
The moral? RACK play asks for technical understanding of the risks by tops and bottoms. This is why *all rope ed is for tops AND bottoms*. Bottoms: know how your rope works! Tops: know what bottoming entails!
This may seem like an ordinary portrait, but look closer.
