RLV is the
icing on the cake of BDSM (especially Bondage) in SL. It makes the feeling of
helplessness just that. Being tied up in SL can be as exciting as being tied up
in the real world. Now don’t get me wrong. I am not saying it’s a substitute
for the real thing. But as Jackie Treehorn once pointed out to the Dude: “People
forget, that the brain is the biggest erogenous zone.” And it’s the brain where
both worlds become real, isn’t it?
My
conclusion: BDSM in SL without RLV would be like rigging the ropes in RL but
not tying the knot.
