Have any people here heard the story of Delia Day? (This was the name she went by on her website, not her real name.) She was a slave who had a website detailing in prose and pictures her life as a slave. There was a free part of the site and a paid part, however I only went to the free part. Apparently there was a lot more writings and photos at the paid part of the site. Anyway, she chronicled her life as a slave really well, always referring to her husband as her "owner". Identifying as a "sub" myself I was shocked and horrified, yet couldn't stop reading. The woman had just about everything done to her you can imagine during their 10-year or more relationship. She would say on the site that she was content, but I couldn't find anywhere she said that she was happy. It was my thought at the time that she really didn't have the mental faculties to consent to be in this type of relationship. Although she seemed, and I think was, very intelligent and well-educated, she said that she suffered from bulemia pretty bad at the time when she met him. And usually people with eating disorders have a distorted view of themselves. Anyway, for some reason I quit reading the site for a while and then a couple of months later I tried to go to the site and it wasn't working. After a bit of investigating I found out why. It turns out that she had shot her husband/owner a couple of months before that (December 2, 2003.) The strange thing was that a couple of days before that in her live journal she was talking about how he was teaching her how to shoot it. It was only after this happened that it came to light that the couple had two children and that her owner had one child from a previous relationship. It appears that they had been sent to boarding school or something. I really could not imagine children being present in their household. Apparently she was arrested and released for reasons of self-defense. As far as I know it didn't go to trial, but I could be wrong. The website is of course down now. Her last live journal entry was from the day before the shooting. As far as I know, she has never communicated publically about what happened or the events leading up to it. I have to admit, I was always curious, but respect that it's her privacy and her own business.
