It was a bit crazy, and all three of us like marks and branding. It was an incredibly bonding experience, and it really did make Kat a permanent part of our lives.

There was some movie I saw once that had a branding scene @ a fraternity. I think it was a horror flick, but I don't remember the specifics.

All the pledges were lined up and told they were going to be branded as the final proof of dedication to the frat and they had to be to gain entrance. I think some left and a few said they'd go through with it.

It was all a ruse. They had two branding irons. One was red hot and the other (unbeknownst to the pledges) was in a bucket of ice water. Instead of actually branding them, the guys in charge would plunge the hot one into the ice water (causing it to steam and crackle) while simultaneously "branding" the pledge with the cold one. It sure sounded like they were being burnt, and it's amazing how the sensations of extreme hot and extreme cold can be difficult to distinguish.

I plan on doing this at some point, for grins.

i'll be happy to. i read on here from time to time Dominants who collar immediately and Dominants who brand a sub they have not known for very long. i have always wondered why that was. do you know? All the sub's respnses on here have been wonderful, but i was also want to hear from the Dominants too.

When i first met my Owner he told me that if in a year and  everything goes well with us. I will collar you. We then decided that a personal tatoo of our choosing when the time came would work for us.

So my question is what is a Dominants opinion on other Dominants that brand when they haven't know a sub for very long. i am not asking anyone to judge, because each person is different. i am just asking for personal opinions. Thanks.

Halloween, it depends on how deep and large the brand is and how much a person's skin scars from a wound.

i've also heard that the hotter it is the longer it stays.

I loved You would give me a mind fuck Mistress, it was such an adrenaline rush.

I think i remember seeing that movie, i remember that part and the people who were "branded" passed out because of the fear, and when they woke up they were freaked out and found out they wernt. Or was it a Vietnam war movie, i remember a scene where that happened, i definalty held my breath.

Generally speaking, tattoos are more permanent than brandings.  Generally.
