ORIGINAL: FelinePersuasion Of course their not legal, but if you agree to abide by a rule of the Master's, then that master can indeed tell you that you have no right to say no. Not legally, but in your dynamic He can. If you then refuse to abide by the dynamic you agreed to, then that usualy means the disolving of the relationship. not always, but if I agreed to abide by certain rules then refused to we wouldn't have the dynamic we both agreed on. quote:
ORIGINAL: Valyraen There ain't a court in the whole of the States that recognizes one of those contracts as a binding legal document... so, I'm sorry to say, those contracts are only valid so long as both of the participant parties choose to abide by them. They're no more "real" than the price quoted to you by a sleazy used-car salesman. I completely agree... the point that I'm trying to make, however, is that those contracts only exist so long as both parties consent to keep them in existence. If Aqua really, really didn't feel like doing something, there's no way I can legally force her to do it. Short form of my argument - you're only a dom as long as your sub agrees with you. Short form as it applies to the post I originally quoted - you only don't have the right to say "no" to your dominant as long as you agree that you don't have the right, because of the consentual nature of a BDSM contract. Just to clarify - I don't mean to come off like I'm attacking, by any means. Just saw your post and felt like I had to raise a hand and say "Wait, that's not always true..."
