Marks and bruises ok?

Marking and bruising refers to whether you're comfortable with BDSM activities leaving visible marks on your body, and if so, how long you're willing to have these marks remain visible. This preference helps partners gauge the intensity of play and select appropriate activities that align with your comfort levels regarding visible aftermath.

Keep in mind that bodies respond differently to impact play and other marking activities. Some people bruise very easily while others rarely show marks from the same intensity of play. When playing with new partners, it's advisable to start lighter and gradually test how your body responds before engaging in more intense marking activities.
