Yeah, but to require someone to show that esteem and respect by giving gifts is just tacky. Especially, right from the beginning

Personally, I dislike being toyed with in this manner and I'd tell him where to get off. But, that's just me.

If it works for you, go have fun.

I have to second this. I love to give gifts when the mood strikes me...but to have them expected of me for the relationship to exist? Yeah right...I'll get right on that as soon as the hysterical fits of laughter subside....which should probably be about....well....never.

Yeah this would just make me discontent - if she wants to give me a gift, and takes the time to cleverly puzzle out what it is that would please me most that she can reasonably afford, and dedicates effort to the delivery, I'll be very pleased indeed. Otherwise? No thank you. If there's something I want from her, I'll take it.

While i would give gifts to someone i was seeing that had earned my trust, care and respect. I would not be interested in anyone who expects such things. I recently saw someone who turned out to be totally different than they said, but after i go there they expected me to leave a piece of my gear behind to donate to the dungeon, thats just NOT going to happen, esp when not mentioned up front. Just my 2 cents worth

I'd have Ron's little dimple-headed babies, too

I guess you could call nice gestures and small gifts "tribute". But, that doesn't sound like they'd be very appreciated, only expected. And anytime it becomes expected, well, it just takes all the joy of giving out of it.

And joy blows my dress up.

Tributes are gifts given willingly, not demanded. Then they become payments. And whoever said ya gotta pay for this stuff?!

Ron and I could make beautiful little Vikings together.

Personally, I feel relationships are built on trust and mutual respect. Gifts are something given willingly. Paying for sex of any flavor or gender amounts to prostitution. I don't play with hookers.

Just my $.02 worth.

Valkyries Daughter,
Do you not have any whore fantasies? That isn't the only thing that appeals to me about it, but, yea, that appeals to the part of me that likes humiliation play. I also like the idea of 'paying' to be beaten.
Truthfully, if he was asking for meaningful tribute, like a pro Dom gets, I'd just be gone. I'd never even consider it, beyond maybe wank matterial, but I wouldn't be willing to do it. But he's asking for a buck or so, in the form of tobbacco or other things. The tobbacco gifts are the most expensive things on his list. Hell, I buy my Dad cigs, and he has never beaten me in my life. (He was an anti-spank parent. A rarity, back then.)
But I do find it interesting that you draw a correlation to prostitution, desdainfully. I have so many whore fantasies. I know Nancy Friday says they don't exist, but she forgot to ask me. Like the quarter blow job fantasies. Yea, especially those
