  Power exchange (BDSM) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In BDSM, the term Power Exchange is associated with a submissive exchanging his/her authority to make decisions (whether just for a scene, or for his/her entire life), for the Dominant's agreement to take responsibility for his/her happiness and health.
A dominant is a person who exercises the power to take control of a person or situation through usage of some means (such as physical, mental, financial, etc.) on a regular basis; the gender specific titles being dom for a man, domme or dominatrix for a woman.
In most power exchange as referred to in a BDSM scene, there are limitations on the power the dominant has over the submissive, such as safewords, time limits and/or explicitly negotiated understandings of what is allowed.

Erotic power exchange identifies the power element, magnifies it and uses the power dynamics between partners as one of the instruments to build and shape a relationship.
The erotic power exchange community in general is very tolerant and as a result will often be a (temporary) safe haven for others who may be attracted to some of the aspects of erotic power exchange but not all of them and who are mainly attracted by the tolerance within the group.
Since erotic power exchange - the main instrument of which is symbolism in almost all forms and shapes as long as it is in some way connected to power - can have all sorts of elements, "borrowed" from other kinks so to speak, these connections are not entirely illogical.

 Why BDSM?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
BDSM is highly erotic, usually (though not always) involves sex or sexual tension; and is highly psychologically charged.
People involved in BDSM generally are neither abusive nor come from backgrounds where they were abused, because people with that kind of backgrounds aren't likely to be sexually turned on by giving someone else power over them.
But the fact is, the psychology of a BDSM power exchange is vastly different from the psychology of abuse; and in a BDSM relationship, the psychology is frequently driven by the limitations of the submissive, not the dominant.

Now that you are somewhat educated in BDSM, the psychological symbolism, the right and wrong way to do things, and basically why people are interested in it and what draws them to it, I will tell you a little story of something that I had a chance to experience first-hand very recently.
It was the first club of this type that we’d been to, incorporating the “traditional” goth club music and dance club atmosphere with a separate section housing stations for erotic power exchange and bdsm play.
Joe left the club with a better understanding of what bdsm is about-I’m not sure if he left as someone who was particularly interested in it for himself, but he certainly came out of it educated.

 Dr. Laura disses the Power Exchange, declines invitation to speak
The Power Exchange, a student group dedicated to the sexual practices of BDSM (bondage domination and sado-masochism) which barely caused a stir when it arrived on campus this year, has now garnered national media attention.
The Power Exchange is primarily an informational club.
Dr. Laura has previously been criticized for referring to homosexuality as "an unnatural act." With the controversy of the Power Exchange now fully blown, it seems that the late-Victorian values espoused by the doctor tend to inspire hysteria, rather than cure it.

It seems to me that the idea of the total power exchange in its various forms, in my case a Gorean slavery, usually evokes negative feelings in people, even in others practicing a similar lifestyle.
There is disdain, usually strictly directed to the slave and involving terms like "doormat." Sometimes there is anger aimed at all parties from the greater alternative lifestyle community who feel we set a bad example by not constantly bandying about mottos like "Safe, Sane, and Consensual." or by not having a full complement of safewords.
Amongst people involved in BDSM and those who consider themselves Goreans there is an infinite range of relationships from the lightest play to ownership as absolute as possible under the law.
