I've only had few exposures to wax play and absolutely loved it. Never cared about which kind of candle it was and held it incredibly close, even on the first attempt. *shrugs* It's just something that I found absolutely hot straight away. Everyone's different and to me the key is to find what turns me on personally. Well...wax seems to do the trick, lol.

But pain is so subjective and the tolerance varies with every situation, even with the time of day (scientific data here...not a wild speculation). By all means...try some of the ideas suggested here and you might find something that works for you. If it doesn't, though, you're not a wimp - you just found out something new about yourself, that's all. I'm sure you have plenty more activities on your 'hot' list.
