Perhaps you know or perhaps you have asked yourself why is the Triskele the symbol for those in the lifestyle? What does it all mean? Or perhaps you had a general idea, with that we bring you the meaning of life…
When we break down BDSM it often has three parts that are closely related, but are different.
~ First we know that by looking BDSM we know that it can be split into three areas.
1. B&D - BDSM - Bondage and discipline
2. D&S - BDSM - Dominance and submission
3. S&M - BDSM - Sadism and masochism
~ Second, the lifestyle has and promotes a three way creed.
1. Safe
2. Sane
3. Consensual
~ Lastly any BDSM lifestyle participant can be identified by one of three groups.
1. A Top (A Dominant, Master or Top)
2. A bottom (A submissive, slave or bottom)
3. A Switch (A person who may be able to switch or serve in both roles)
If you look at the Triskele you will notice there are shapes. The shapes are meant to show how one area of B&D, D&S and S&M are separate, but can easily be blended. They appear the same but are clearly distinct.
But why is it black? The blackness represents the dark desires of a person and their ability to unleash or control them. The silver or metallic can represent chains, servitude, and ownership. Other colors could represent sexual orientation.
The holes (not dots) represent the fact that something or someone is missing. BDSM can not be preformed by one person, thus leaving a hole within them. It is a hole that can only be filled by another. A Dominant requires a submissive and a submissive requires a Dominant.
The ring represents the community. A container of all the parts that understands, respects, protects and embraces its own for their lifestyle choice, while understanding one area is no more or less than the other.
