Interesting Information About the BDSM Triskelion
In the mid 1990's, a discussion on AOL set the course for what we know as the BDSM emblem. There was an idea that a symbol was needed to represent this brand of sexuality and lifestyle. As well, the symbol needed to be a bit mysterious. When worn, it could not attract a great deal of attention from "vanilla observers". It did have to be easily recognized by those who knew what it was. In the end, Steve Quagmyr, a leader of the discussion, created an emblem reminiscent of the yin-yang design. The choice of design was infuenced by a description of the ring that "O" was given in the novel "The Story of O" (which is very different from that worn in the movie version). The ring as described in the book " . . . bore a three-spoked wheel . . . with each spoke spiralling back upon itself . . .".
A special identification mark from the BDSM field is called a BDSM emblem. The three-piece design was created by an anonymous designer using the pseudonym Quagmyr as a subtle insider symbol for BDSM enthusiasts. It is based on the description of the ring worn by the main character "O" in the classic BDSM novel The Story of O by Pauline Réage. The symbol is used in numerous variations, especially in the United Kingdom and the United States, and has been a common identifier for BDSM supporters there since the 1990s.
