An Important Message (Patreon)

For those of you who are not active in my Discord server and/or Twitter, I want to make sure you do not miss out on something important I addressed this morning. I received a CuriousCat question today that I want to give special attention to, to highlight my stance on the subject, as it is important.

The question was:

"Do you ever wonder if you have pushed subs too far with the real hypno you use. rhat the extreme hypno that you have done has created a cult that has become unescapable even with the deprogramming file available. and that it might be hurting or even dangerous for subs and ruining their life even if they didnt want all of it. and that their suffering and miserable because their curiousity got the better of them to the point they now cry themselves to sleep knowing they will never escape. asking for a friend.."

And my response:

That is a serious question that deserves a serious answer. I take ethical concerns very seriously. I strive to include very detailed file descriptions, warnings, and comprehensive tags (and have made it clear on my Patreon “About” section that I can amend them at any time if I am approached with concerns that they are lacking and/or non-fitting). The intention is never to harm or create a harmful environment. If anyone ever feels uncomfortable or trapped, I strongly encourage them to discontinue use of my content and seek professional help if needed. 

I strive to create a safe and consensual experience that allows for listeners to take personal responsibility by reading my descriptions, tags, and disclaimers to make educated decisions about engaging with my content. Of course, I do not deny that my content features and deals with extreme fetishes. People have extreme fetishes. People will seek this type of content out whether I make it or not, but I attempt to design my content to cater to these extreme fetishes in a fashion that is safer than some other options my audience may find. To serve as an outlet for these interests with transparent information about my content that sets my listeners up to decide what they do and do not want to consume. I do my best to minimize the risks of engaging with extreme kinks that some people will be drawn to regardless, and I hope to serve as an alternative to less responsible sources, potentially helping my audience to engage with their fetishes in a safer environment without putting themselves at even greater risk with content that lacks these safety measures. I believe that my content is the relatively safer option in the space that these fetishes occupy in the erotic hypnosis world, and my audience has the ability to choose which content they want to listen to.

You’ve used the term “subs” when referring to my listeners. I would like to clarify that there is a difference between being a content creator and “cult” creator (as you’ve put it). My wonderful community is a very supportive group of erotic hypnosis enjoyers who have chosen to listen to my content on their own accord. I offer a wide variety of audios for anyone to consume at their own discretion. I do not coerce them to engage or demand any sort of unquestioning devotion (seriously and outside of kink). I have had tons of people come and go, after being active members, and I never try to drag them back in. I actively try to encourage people to take care of themselves, even if it means leaving my content & community behind. My interactions with my listeners are largely group-oriented and public, mostly pertaining to updates and community engagement. While I used to be a domme who offered sessions, I don’t do that anymore. When I switched over to focusing on content creation, I ceased & phased out private one-on-one d/s dynamics and sessions with my consumers. The insinuation that I have created a “cult” is simply not in line with my practices. I do everything I can to maintain ethical transparency with my listeners, allowing them to feel empowered to exercise free will and take care of their health. Implications stating otherwise are always limited to play & kink. 

I do not plan to stray away from extreme content that I love, and it’s become clear to me that many others are seeking out content that matches my own kinks. I have realized recently that the extreme nature of my files is what draws people to my content. Because of this, I acknowledge that some people may suffer ill effects from my content if they choose to engage with it in a way that is unsafe or disregards all the warnings and tags I have in place for each file. Indulging in recreational activities that carry risk is common, and consumers make such decisions all the time. For example, companies that offer extreme experiences such as skydiving or bungee jumping (dangerous, and potentially harmful activities) provide warnings and disclaimers, even waivers, and then consumers can decide if they still want to take the risks that come with the activities. If they choose to ignore the safety guidelines, it is not the fault of the company offering the experience. Alcohol manufacturers produce merchandise that can also be dangerous if consumed irresponsibly, but they also include warnings and restrictions. Again, if someone chooses to ignore all of the transparent information and misuses or abuses alcohol, we do not see people blaming the manufacturers. I have made the decision to create the content I create, and just like these two examples, I provide all necessary warnings and encourage responsible consumption, but ultimately it is up to the consumer to make responsible choices for themselves. They know what is best for them, better than I could. People react differently to my content, and I cannot predict that. I can offer the content and everything that needs to be known about it, but if someone ignores all of the clear labeling, they are ultimately responsible for their actions. 

It is important to me to address these concerns, and I am always open to more thoughts and input from my community on how I can conduct myself and my content in the most ethical way I can.

Thank you for taking the time to read if you did, and for your support! I want you all to know that I value your health and safety as you navigate my content. If you have any questions, comments or concerns, I am always open for public discussion on how I can make this a safer and more ethical space for you to explore your extreme fetishes <3
