Abstract

Sexual consent has, and continues to be, a nebulous and ill-defined topic of academic, sociological, and social inquiry (Archard, 1998). Consent in BDSM contexts is even more poorly defined, despite its central importance to the subculture. The existing literature notes this significance (for example, Barker, 2013; Jozifkova, 2013; Langdridge & Butt, 2004). However, academic investigations are yet to examine the ways in which consent is constructed by BDSM practitioners, particularly through language and interaction. Through the application of an ethnomethodological (EM) and conversation analysis (CA) framework to audio-recorded pre-scene negotiations of BDSM practitioners, a preliminary investigation into consent in BDSM contexts shows there are distinct conversational phases during pre-scene negotiations.
