To my friends? I'm brutally honest. "We were messin' around and that's how I got those horrible looking bruises everywhere. My couch is hard, what do you want out of my life. *insert maniacal laugh*"

To everyone else? I either try to hide the injury or explain it away as clumsiness.

I remember one time we were working on getting in the mood and he started tickling me and I kind of jumped out of his arms, next thing I know I'm laying on the bed with a bag of frozen peas on my face. I split my eyebrow open on the corner of a very hard, wood table. Hubby doesn't like to round his corners so it was really sharp, too. Everyone at work thought I needed stitches.

You know how most people have a scar above their eyebrow from a sibling popping them in the face with a toy or them falling head first into a table while learning how to walk? That's how people assume I got this scar, and I just smile and nod and laugh to myself thinking, "man if you only knew the real story". It's a great little secret between us.

Sex injuries are usually hilarious!

I don't say anything--our adventures are a bit out of the realm for talking to friends about, lol!! I had a whole list that kept coming at me after I wrote the story--but we aren't talking about a book, but an article....so I shortened it to the two top incidents.

I think the worst thing that happened to me during sex was when my girlfriend came down on my penis and it didn't quite make it in the hole. She was in pain too, but my erect penis actually bent in half. It hurt soo bad, but I didn't have a long term injury or anything to explain.

I haven't been injured during sex.

To friends, no reason to lie,lol,shit happans and its usually hilarious when it does. To the oss, well I guess it depends on your relationship with them. Now if its bad enough that they think you're getting whooped (and not in the good way) then id go for truth. You both might come out of it embarressed, but at least they won't worry and call the cops or something.

I'm in a bdsm relationship, but most marks are easily covered. i did have my mom ask about the red lines on my thighs though, i said it was just indents from sitting on a chair, then changed into pants. lol

never had an injury myself, could see how it could happen though. close calls haha!

I let my friends know if they notice it. why not right?

I like to get choked so I sport bruises around my neck so yes I had to tell a few people what happen I don't care I am proud of them

When we get kinky, we try to place the marks were they can be covered up easily by clothing.
It gets hard to come up with excuses when someone asks: "where's that from?"

I don't recall any misshaps yet and I'm not around people to notice any bruises anyway.

Fell off the bed once. There was very little space between the bed and the wall so I ended up stuck down there for a bit.
