Xet
Xet is a non-commercial Danish BDSM community founded april 10th 2005.
Xet is open to all adults with an interest in playing with BDSM with other consenting adults. Xet will not knowingly admit people attracted to violence in itself or incest in any form.
The vision of Xet is to create a safe haven for the many adults with interests into the aspects of BDSM, be it bondage / discipline, dominance / submission, sadism or masochism. Xet aims to attract only people that have come to realize that BDSM is and shall be a part of their life. Xet does not in any way set up rules about the members' sexuality or if members are in or out of relationships.
The community structure is flat and every member has access to a discussion board where every oppinion is allowed.
Xet, in Danish meaning "the X", took it's name from the many forms of "X" that are part of BDSM, from St Andrews cross or Cross Dressing to many many other meanings..
Xet is most of all about freedom to play in a safe BDSM environment for/with consenting adults. Xet is also about freedom to speak and interfere - much alike the democratic principles surrounding us.
Some or all of the founding members have experienced difficulties in keeping the constructive force in some BDSM communities. Since we are all more or less into some form of Dominance, this may all be very natural and understandable, but it is nonetheless both hard to accept for many of us and also hard to keep the community together for long.
The community structure of Xet is flat and each and every member has equal access to a discussion board, the X-board, where any and every oppinion is allowed. The concept is that it is not everyone that has access to the X-board, but once inside you are free to express anything, allowed under the law as it is.
Xet.dk is an integral part of the concept of having an open environment for discussion and exchange of ideas. It was important when founding the community in 2004-2005 that there be no closing down the flow of information based on unfounded fears of indiscression. The system seems to work, much alike the web in general, so that more people enter into discussion or are at least updated on the events and discussions. This is a vast improvement in the experience of many of us that founded Xet.
