People can be dumb. They can believe some daft and stupid things. And our pack has certainly heard some ridiculous, and often offensive statements thrown at us over the years. So we decided to create a myth debunking series here to help shine some light of truth into the seedy suspicious shade. It is not meant to be a drama or entirely serious either - no pun intended.
We begin with the statement - You can't be a Sirius Pup unless you are into hardcore BDSM.
This is wrong, and this video below is us explaining what the actual truth is.
Pup play is usually classified as a sexual minority expression, and lumped with fetishists and practitioners of bondage and discipline, domination and submission, and/or sadomasochism - BDSM for short. Given the recent Fifty Shades of Grey, many people have decided in their minds that there is a 'softcore' BDSM, and there is a hardcore BDSM. I am guessing that softcore is just stuff that a married couple of suburbia introduce into their love life for a bit of excitement, and that hardcore requires a dungeon and safewords and would certainly shock aunt Phyllis.
We do practice softcore bdsm often. The hardcore BDSM is only for some of us, and is not usually part of our pup play.
