One of the largest misconceptions in SL about Gorean roleplay is that it is BDSM play. Particularly confusing the issue is the fact that a fair number of BDSM types have been drawn to Gorean roleplay and the lines have become muddied in some roleplay communities.
A dominant/submissive relationship does not necessarily mean that the sub enjoys pain or the dominant enjoys inflicting pain. In BtB (by the book) Gorean roleplay, punishment is punishment and pleasure is pleasure. The female submissive's state of arousal is maintained because she feels her Master's total power over her and any inhibitions she might have about her own sexuality are lifted from her as soon as the collar clicks around her throat and she is pulled to her knees at her Master's boots.
Many slaves (depending on their disposition and their Masters) are seldom or never punished. Their obedience and service to their Masters is always pleasing and satisfactory. This is very different from BDSM roleplay.
