Since some people have been confused on what I tolerate as CNC in this subreddit I wanted to update this explanation on CNC. If you ever see anyone in the comments who does not know what CNC is or why I allowed certain posts to be here, you can refer back to this article :) Thank you! I might update this article later on if new misunderstandings come up.

What is CNC?

Consensual non-consent (short CNC) is a style of BDSM play in which everyone involved agrees to behave in a manner that mimics non-consensual behavior.

The submissive part enjoys to resist while the dominant part enjoys to break that resistance.

Examples of this include: - A person pretends to kidnap, torture, rape the submissive part. - Sex takes place while someone is asleep or drugged. - The submissive part is tied up outside while trying to free themselves. - The dominant part spanks, slaps, whips the submissive part, which is trying to resist.

The key of such scenarios is that they are truly consensual. They have been discussed and planned through ahead of time and have a framework for communicating consent without the normal methods (saying yes, looking enthusiastic).

All parts of the CNC play have an option to exit it at any inconvenience. This can be achieved e.g. through a safe sign or safe word.

An important thing to note: CNC does not glorify actual rape. Most kinks are unexplainable and can seem weird to people at first. If it is consensual and all involved parties have fun in the process, there should not be anything to judge or shame.

What is tolerated as CNC in this subreddit?

Obviously all posts have to abide the rules. But when it comes to the CNC part itself: Everything posted here has to be viewed in a frame of consent. The consent does not have to be apparent from the image, video, comic, etc. itself. If it is not displayed, it was established beforehand.

In my opinion it is not acceptable to neglect the consent from a scene, even if it is fictional. Consent is very important and even if its not shown, it should always be in the back of your head that every involved party has to enjoy it, even if they do not make it apparent.

It is understandable if some people hold the initialization of the frame of consent as an important thing, though a lot of content does not picturize it and only tickles the pure resistance part of CNC fantasy. This is why I do not require it. (I know this makes this subreddit overlap with r/rape_hentai and others, but I created r/hentaicnc to cover more than just rapeplay).

There are also different levels of CNC. In some scenarios the sub might only be resistant in the beginning and accepts it later on. Begging to be taken forcefully. In other scenarios the sub may cry or fight with all their power. All of this is still considered CNC. It is required to show some level of resistance in the sub, even if its completely gone later on.
