What is 8 swords for sexual relationships?

[SirRushing]

If someone wants to have a 8 swords sexual (not romantic) relationship with you would you think automatically that the relationship is bad?

I am trying to remain objective so I am trying to figure this out with the positive vs. negative.


Positive:
- Sexual commitment, or addiction. Like you feel that you got the person sexually hooked and they are not going in anywhere and won't leave you. Like saying you "p*ssy- or d*ck-whipped somebody."


Negative:
- They want to trap you in a relationship with them, and usually the entrapment is of ill-gotten means, like man slyly gets a woman pregnant without her knowing, or the woman gets herself pregnant without the man knowing.
- Rape? Sexual activities that could get you in jail (if 8 swords = prison/jail)
- Trap a person to have a relationship with you by having a baby and using the baby as an anchor to keep the person in having a relationship with you.
- S&M and Domination and bondage sex.


What are your experiences with this card in regards to sexual relationships and sexual activity?

I can't exactly speak from experience of it, but if it's strictly a sexual context, I'd think BDSM immediately. Or someone who likes to be blindfolded? Or someone who
Likes to be very submissive or passive and let the other "lead the way" all the time?

I can see the other interps, but could it be that this person is actually afraid of getting into a sexual relationship? Since the card also relate to anxiety and/or he may fear you have been through some bad experiences and he hopes to take that away?

Like most cards in Tarot - this could serve as a warning only that they will feel trapped by the relationship and/or will fear trying to get out of it. It is easy to read 'Whips, chains, S & M, The Story of O, etc.' into it, but that is something the Querent will probably fill in themselves.

Then again, getting tied up and whipped might be right up their alley ....

I'm still pondering over how a man could get a woman pregnant without her knowing it. I can't figure that one out although women do sometimes get pregnant without the man wanting them to.

And of course sexual bondage comes to mind.

But for me there would have to be a combination of cards that would indicate what the 8 of Swords means.

I would think the only way would be if he told her he'd had a vasectomy and he really hadn't, but that would be pretty twisted. And it could only work if they used no protection which would be inadvisable!

Condoms with pinprick-holes in them. Saying you've had a vasectomy in the past when you haven't.

Women don't have a copyright on sneakiness.

I see eight of swords as abusive relationship. Swords are words/communication in my mind, so to trap one person within such quantity is abuse/intrapment. Now, the scary part is that she has blindfold on. She is aware of the swords because she is not moving. For some people that like to be abused, lied to, live in a pritty cage type of sexual relationship would be awesome. No judgements from me. Its a metter of personal choice. However, swords can also represent gossip and not everyone can handle being in relationship that is under a microscope being surrounded by gossip.

He cant but he can force her to. Small community, group of men that assign women .. oustressize women who are forced in relationships they dont want to be in sometimes have no choice. Arguments, withholding love ... the only choice for a woman is either to breed or get out.

First of all, quick question...

How is having someone become dependent on you and "addicted" to you on your list of positives? That strikes me as a blaring negative, and an extremely unhealthy relationship. Are you saying you (or the person you're reading for) WANT to become frighteningly dependent on the other person, or that you WANT the other person to become frighteningly dependent on you?

With that being said, since you're obviously not into the possibility of S&M-type stuff (since that was listed as a negative on your list) I can definitely say that I'd interpret this relationship to be extremely unhealthy and "bad," to use your word. Any number of possible scenarios could apply here, but all you need to do is take a look at your own list. You only came up with one possible positive (which I really think you need to reconsider as a "positive") and 4 possible negatives.

You already know the answer to your question. The possibility of a sexual relationship here is not a good choice, plain and simple.
