ORIGINAL: kc692 **Fast Reply** While we are on the rant, I want to also add Anne Rice and other bdsm "novels" to the mix. They are just that, fiction. My last slave had a set of books that were her favorites, and of course the female slave got farmed out to many every night for their sexual satisfaction, and her Lady's also. She spent several hours being (yes, being, others did the work) prepared for the parties every night. It never once mentioned that the Lady wanted her floor scrubbed!!!! I think sometimes that also does a great disservice to those that acquire a hugely romanticized view of WIITWD and therefore label themselves as slaves. i find it sad that someone would take those books literally. i for one, happen to like that particular set of chronicles very much, but i also know that it is strictly fiction. (BTW, it does have slaves scrubbing floors and doing menial tasks throughout the series [;)]) But to say that liking those books, or having read those books does a disservice, i don't agree with. If a sub/slave believes it is not fiction then that is a problem with that sub/slave, not the books. W/we all know that there are some in the lifestyle that shouldn't be, including those living in fantasy. There is nothing wrong with having a romanticized view as long as it is based in reality and works for that P/person. So as far as what view O/one takes from the articles/books they read, wether it should be viewed as fact or fiction, has to do with the P/people themselves, not with the articles/books.
