Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

What if the person likes being flogged and I don't?
They can always just not flog you. Just because they like something doesn't mean that they HAVE to do the same to others.
And if they asked me to flog them because they like it, I personally would also not do that, as it would make me uncomfortable.
So what I'm getting at is that it's a limited moral guide, at least when taken by itself. There's clearly things other people enjoy that I don't, but I can still use sympathy to understand that they enjoy it, and I might choose to help them in the process.
I see. Yes, I agree with that.
