BDSM Abuse

In January 1998 i was cruelly raped by someone i knew. In an effort to come to terms with what happened to me, i started building Survive, a site dedicated to helping rape victims.

While researching items for Survive i soon realised that even within the BDSM community abuse still happens. I am trying to build up links and articles that show the dangers and risks that may be involved in setting out and forming relationships in the BDSM world.

I have tried to list as many of the websites i have been able to find online that deal with abuse within BDSM relationships, or people in BDSM relationships that have been abused in their past, either within or outside of a BDSM context.

If you know of any that you think we need to included please mail me and let me know the URL and i will add it.
