Don't you understand the purpose of a blog?

The discussion went high in our Importance of Aftercare post and we were accused of “lying to the public” by very a limited group of people that had a BDSM political agenda. Some people don’t seem to understand the purpose of a blog – Lying is not the same as having different opinions.

So we thought we would clarify the purpose of this blog, we believe that this is of uttermost importance, just as we still believe that the concept of aftercare is of uttermost importance – Which the heated discussion also showed without any doubts.

So if you have any doubts regarding what this blog is about, then continue to read.

ISLAND OF PAIN BLOG RULES

Our philosophy on differences of opinions is that it is a sign of life in the brain. We would be shocked if you agreed with everything we post on this blog (and puzzled as we actually sometimes disagree with each other.

You have a right to your opinion, a right to express your opinion, a right to change your opinion without sending us all a notification, Of course, since this is our blog, if you are not respectful of others’ right to have an opinion, we may deny you the right to express your opinion here. But in this Internet age, that should only slow you down for the 5 minutes it takes to set up a blog somewhere.

What else? Oh yes. You also have the right to agree with us but we prefer you actually express an opinion if you do. Otherwise, we’ll end up with a readership of zombies. And frankly, that’s not so sexy to us.
