I smegging miss it - the bruises on my breasts, the hickeys on my neck - I was marked and claimed. The silent smugness of "My lover marked me as HIS property. I'm HIS fuck toy. None of you have the guts to be that primal."

Never let my ex-husband do it. I felt that if he didn't want to go through with the whole act, then he had no right to mark me.

I'm very fair skinned and tend to bruise and get marks VERY easily, so I always have a lot of marks to muse at. I do like them, but I feel as if I have to cover them up for work, (I'm a waitress- and not at Hooter's! lol) mostly because of the remarks I get from co-workers.

I really like being bitten, and sometimes I don't even realize I have a mark. I have to wear my hair in a ponytail for work, and there's been a couple times I didn't even realize I had a bite mark or hickey on my neck until someone said something to me.

My man really gets a kick out of leaving marks on me, especially hand prints on my ass. He slapped my ass with a huge dildo that left a dick shaped mark and he thought it was so funny he took a picture of it on his phone. He's taken pictures of hand prints he's left on my ass before, too. Guess he likes to brand me.

And oooh I want a wartenberg pinwheel!!

I never get marks. I give them to my boyfriend all the time though. For the same reasons as mentioned above.

I love the marks. A lot of people think hickey's are disgusting, but I love the feeling of getting one and having one a few days after. I mean, walking around with a ridiculously huge, black hickey isn't too attractive, but I don't mind a little bruise on my neck

I love it. I love the marks and I love even the little twinges of pain I'll get if my breasts have been really bitten up and I lay out flat without remembering to be careful there. Incidentally though, I forgot I had an appt with a brand new OB/GYN last week and so the weekend before, I got all sorts of bitten up and scratched and bruised and when she pulled the little dixie napkin they call a gown open, her eyes popped open a little wider, but she kept really cool.

I swear people think my bf beats me (in a bad way...lol). I have bruises everywhere. Some of his favorite pics are of my bloody red ass.

I don't personally care for marks on myself. Just not my thing. I also don't bruise very easily (I have really tough capillaries or something.) I've had them, and once had an ER doc become very concerned. I was in the ER after we were playing rough around a bonfire on New Year's Eve on year. My Man was just goofing around, and he "threw" me into the snow. Only there was only a half an inch of snow.(Yeah, he was drunk.) I dislocated my shoulder and separated it. He felt SO badly. We went to the ER, and I was honest about what happened. I didn't realize I had some "love marks" on my thighs and she pulls me aside and asks me, "Honey, do you get hurt a lot? Are you afraid of him?" OMG, I was so embarrassed. I tried really hard to let her know we were PLAYING, both the shoulder and the love marks, but I don't think she believed me.

When you work in medicine, you do have the obligation to ask women who may be in real danger if they want help. It is actually in a lot of HCPs contracts. So, chances are, if they see marks they are going to ask.

I think just being honest and saying, if they ask or make a face (and it most likely will end up in your chart) "Listen, I am in no danger. My partner and I engage in consensual rough sex. It isn't abuse, it's allowed and wanted." It still might go in your chart, though.

A lot of doctors think they know more than their patients do about their patients' own personal lives, and many of them are woefully uninformed about sex. So many doctors spent the time many of us were learning to have sex studying and many have little knowledge of real life sex that goes beyond missionary position, 10 minute "Intercourse."

I don't notice marks on myself very often. What I do notice are sore/tender areas (when I touch them), which I definitely don't like. Guess I'm one of those wussy males

I haven't had the pleasure of being marked yet, but it's definitely something I fantasize about now and would like to experience.

Honestly, I absolutely *LOVE* being marked by my Fiancé

I like being able to look in the mirror afterward and see the places where he left his marks. I feel almost like he lovingly branded me as belonging to him (without the need for a red-hot poker, lol). The Slut in me loves walking around with my head held high, displaying it for everyone to see if it's in an area not covered by clothing.

I have to say, Chili summed it up beautifully:

"My lover marked me as HIS property. I'm HIS fuck toy. None of you have the guts to be that primal."

I couldn't have put it better myself

I don't like it because I bruise really easily and something that barely hurt can look pretty bad and lead to awkward questions. What I do like is the muscle soreness the next day, especially my butt and thighs from being on top. It makes me reminisce plus I like to think that I'm getting toned as an extra benefit.

I absolutely love the marks-- but I work in a pretty conservative office, so they need to be easily covered up.

I don't hate them, but I don't like having to try and hide them either. I used to not care, but after one particularly nasty looking hickey, I didn't want to deal with being asked if I was being abused anymore, lol

My husband isn't rough enough to leave visual marks. However, he does tend to leave a marking scent on me. I have had co workers mention a musky scent on me after a "busy" few days. This is despite the fact that I showered several times. That I take pride in.

Well, we're not rough enough to really leave marks other than hickies, but I do like those..although we try to keep them in areas that can be covered since I don't really want to be walking into my kids' school with hickies all over me..

Haha oh I luv to have marks, as long as they aren't big gross hickeys like high schoolers..lol But that's pretty much intentional. I prefer those left behind by accident.lol Occaisional bruising on my shoulders, um ankles , and arms are nice. Ooh inner thigh is another nice place.lol
Its just idk... like Paralax said above, they make me smile, lol like a lot.
And unlike ScottA, I like it when I'm sore after. lol Like a couple days later when I get up wrong or lean over for something and my ass hurts hahaha or like im all tender and raw lol I feel like I'm carrying around a secret. "I had awesome sex Sunday night.. YAY ME!! lmao... so umm yeah I dig all the lil reminders of a hot night!

yeah, I like my "Sex Marks", as I call them lol. Its funny when I look at them and have flash backs to all of the fun we had

NO!

Love the marks! I think it's because like many of you, I like to know that I've been claimed. I also like to laugh to myself when people wonder how I got them, it just feels sneaky...plus it's hot.

I love the marks. I had such a PERFECT bitemark a couple months ago that I took a picture of it and showed it to my friends, my sister, my mother... LOL I should post it.
He's got the teeth for it - it looked like a vampire bite, two perfect little bruises. I wish he'd do it more often!

yes but i also like bruses and scars as is

I love marks. It does feel like being branded as belonging to that person. I'm always finding marks on my nipples, bruises, etc. My boyfriend LOVES spanking me, so we also have lots of pictures of hand prints. He's only ever been with dominant girls, so he's not used to someone who's (usually) submissive like me. He's never been able to spank anyone without them getting really pissed off. So he kinda gets to go crazy with me. Haha.

I love the marks my boyfriend leaves on my neck from choken me.I love we he holds me by my neck. Really a turn on

Yes yes yes yes yes. I miss it when my ex and I would play and I'd have rope burn from the truck ties he took from his mom's boyfriend. Why hasn't anyone I dated since wanted to play rougher?! Bruises and everything else are just as hot too.
