Business Statistics
 
:eek: My brain hurts. First class was tonight - I am taking accelerated courses and think this class was not a good one for that....

I hope there are some people out there that can explain standard deviation and all that other weird shit on my calculator - I may need some HELPPPPP!!!!! :smack:

The standard deviations are things like looking at porn and light BDSM play.

itsjulie 10-12-2005 09:30 PM

Really? This 4 hour class had absolutely NOTHING to do with porn, but I will make the suggestion...oh, and what is BDSM?

Bullitt 10-12-2005 09:37 PM

If you don't know already, you probably don't want to... :spank: :bolt:
And what I remember from stats class about standard deviation is pretty limited, and I'd probably just confuse you more. Lo siento

itsjulie 10-12-2005 09:39 PM

BDSM has to do with spankings? Please tell.

Standard deviation - the instructor explained it about some friggin river or something...I honestly have maybe 20 pages of notes to go over tomorrow!

borderline S&M play?

Bullitt 10-12-2005 09:44 PM

Rivers huh.. interesting. Well maybe this will help.

Just google BDSM (not for pics for the love of sweet Jesus), and you'll get an idea of what.. that's, all about. :shudder:

itsjulie 10-12-2005 09:48 PM

OH MY - you could of just said that spankings was correct! See?? I am so sheltered!

Tying up your lover is BDSM; so is flogging that person, or bossing that person around, or any of a thousand other things. BDSM is highly erotic, usually (though not always) involves sex or sexual tension; and is highly psychologically charged. One person (the "submissive") agrees to submit to another person (the "dominant"); or, alternately, one person agrees to receive some sort of sensation, such as spanking, from another.

Some people like to be submissive all the time, some people like to be dominant all the time; some people like to switch, being submissive one day and dominant the next.

Many people practice some element of BDSM in their sexual lives without even necessarily being aware of it. They may think of "S&M" as "That sick stuff that people do with whips and cattle prods and stuff," yet still blindfold one another from time to time, or tie one another down and break out the whipped cream...

All of these things are "BDSM." BDSM is not necessarily hardcore sadomasochism; it can be remarkably subtle and sensual and soft. Pinning your partner to the bed and running silk or ice cubes or rabbit fur over your lover's body qualifies as "BDSM" (specifically, of a variety called "sensation play").

BDSM doesn't have to involve all of these.

There are many people involved in BDSM who enjoy tying others up, or being tied up themselves, but who do not enjoy S&M--that is, they aren't interested in inflicting or receiving pain. Sometimes, one partner just ties up the other, as a form of foreplay. Similarly, there are many people who may like the psychological control they get from ordering their lovers to do things, but do not care for being physically restrained or tied, or for tying up their lovers.
