10 Reason Women Cry During S*xual Intercourse (18+)

You’re Ashamed
Similarly, powerplay can sometimes bring up shame. Again, all of the same things that I just mentioned above may be true — you may be doing everything right, with a trustworthy partner. But being submissive, being called names, or being punished can bring up feelings of shame. Sometimes powerplay can be cathartic because it helps us access and move through the shame that resides within all of us. But sometimes it might feel like too much. It’s up to you to find the line. The questions to ask yourself I’ll mention at the end of this article should help.

You’re Afraid
Another similar experience is fear. Even when done properly, powerplay can still be a scary thing. You may be restrained or physically hurt. Like with pain, there’s a differentiation between “good fear” and “bad fear”. Good fear can be like the anxiety you get on an amusement park ride, or the thrill of watching a movie you know is going to scare the pants off of you. Like with shame, you have to question yourself and find the line that feels right for you.

You’re Being Teased
When you and your partner power play, does he prevent you from experiencing pleasure or having an orgasm? Deprival can be a part of the game is a lot of roleplay situations. Sometimes you might get so hot and bothered, and so frustrated by the lack of release, that you start to cry. If it feels like your body is screaming for attention in the moments before you start crying, this explanation is probably the culprit.
