What do you like about hypnosis?

M1N1, my debate with you last night about technosexuality reminded me of another of those little things that I love--a little tiny thing that fembots don't usually display: the sway. You know, when a sub goes under, especially the first couple of times, and there's that give to her... I can't really describe it better than that, but you all probably know what I mean... sweatdrop

I do. I believe. The sort of thing often exemplified by the infamous Kaa scene in Jungle Book?  

[Legendary Fop]

Ooh, yes, exactly! Though, oddly, I never found myself as... intrigued by that scene as some hypnofetishists. I hear he does it to a girl in the sequel... but I'm probably too old to appreciate it the way the coming generation of pervy hypnotists will...
God, that's a let-down, isn't it? When you see one of the old clips that you just know helped you develop your hypnosis fetish as a kid, but it turns out none of it is as sexy as you remember because the leading lady is, like, ten? XD

Yes. Though the thing is perspective. At 10, a 10 year old 'leading lady' is ideal for relating and truly bonding with the experience.
How many today owe a fondness for gothy girls to Christina Ricci as Wednesday Adams, for example?

Never really got into the live-action Addams Family--but I can trance my entire fixation on hypnosis to an episode of Kidsongs I watched with my kid sister when I was in second grade. :p

*giggles* trance your fixation? Paging Dr. Freud, your slip is showing! xd  

[Legendary Fop]

Hah! I swear by Roger Delgado that was totally unintentional! XD

*Giggles* I do that same thing all the time when it comes to similar words.

I'm new to this, but it's strange and fascinating to me. I'm a trained submissive, but I've never been hypnotized before; I always thought it was kind of a parlor trick? How does it work? I'm very curious.  

[Legendary Fop]

Heh, you realize that now every Dom and Domme in the guild is going to politely but insistently direct you to their personal induction script, right?

I love that it takes away the distance between two people. I can live states away and still feel Master's and Miss' touch or kiss on my skin.
Also I enjoy that it can be used for not only sexual enjoyment. At times if I am in pain for back pains or such Master or Miss can help me feel better without having to look at medication for an answer. That is a very big deal for me.
At least for me it helps a bond between people. It takes a relationship to a better level even when started over the internet unlike others I have been involved with. It builds a great amount of trust, it leads me to have to trust Miss with my life and enjoyment and I hope it gives Master and Miss the enjoyment of knowing I am in their hands.

I read it on my own :3
I was curious. I realize now that I have been hypnotized before. My mum used to do it to get me to sleep as a kid. Worked every time. A therapist tried to do it once as well, but she didn't succeed because I was being belligerent.
But never in the sort of context you're all talking about. I'm used to obeying as an act of will. I'm intrigued.  

[Legendary Fop]

Heh, I remember when I figured that out--though in my case, it was the realization that I had been using it since the moment my voice started to change. I have my dad's voice--and his is so familiar in some circles that I'm actually reluctant to deal with kinksters who live too close to me for the sake of his reputation.

I have always liked the idea that you can just let yourself go and enjoy being completely relaxed. I have always been one of those people who is constantly thinking of something or worrying about anything. To be able to give in and actually have my mind empty for a period of time is a great feeling.
It also is comforting to feel that someone is actually taking away your worries and taking care of you. Having someone that cares about you and wants you to enjoy your experience just makes it that much better.

"All hypnosis is self hypnosis" Very true after all. It's sort of an act of will, but more of the subconscious sort, rather than an active thought. Like as you say, trained submissive, means that in most situations, that would be where you would look for. However, I'm going to just guess that directing you towards a thing you've probably already seen, would be mostly moot.

I haven't used hypnosis or meditation to avoid my own body pains. I have outer sources for such things. Though I do know that I have plenty of enjoyment of soothing moments, and allowing one to slip away. I train it towards a mindset or reaction, rather than a direct in your face this is the way it's going to be..

Hmm.. I always put things akin to space invaders, and even this can be true for it. "Shoot for where they are going, not where they are at."

As well as trance, I like the ability to achieve "flow" When one trance floats into another, and it reciprocates to the hypnotist itself. Personally, I like to think it of a more magical sense, than anything else. I tend to enjoy a sort of flair to my words, and I like to hear apt descriptions of what said trance has done, or feelings that it has caused.

Hmm, it's hard to say what my major interest in hypnosis is. Outside of the fetish, I like the way how it can be used to help people in a variety of ways. In the fetish however, I love the feeling of slipping under and losing control. And it's simply wonderful when I get the sensation of being transformed into different things
