Thanks for your input, so I will assume that the term 'property" is never used in your dialog!

My toaster is my property, but I don't love my toaster ... though I'm a little obsessed with it lately.  [:D]

I have a two grown children, they are mine, they are not my property.  Like I said:  Different strokes.  The words "property," "chattel" etc., do not correspond - in my own mind - to the word love.  It is not a word I would use in the context of a living relationship.  That's just me.  I would never use a term like "the ol' ball and chain" either, even though other people use it as a term of endearment.

Does that clarify what I meant?

littleclip,

it appears to me that there is a big difference between devotion and the concept of property.

We keep trying to use words to explain feelings and they never work.
You can not communicate a feeling to or for another human being.
If someone cares for me I don't need him to tell me I need him to show me.
By serving me, doing as he is told/asked by me. Finding ways to please me.
Wanting to be with me. And allowing me to do all the kinky things I want to do to him.
He can call himself anything he wants to.
I just don't care. It's what we do that counts not what we say. Unless it's yes Ma'am of course. Followed by actually doing what I have told him to do.



CelticPrince -> RE: The Characteristics of being "property" (2/6/2008 10:10:33 AM)

lateralist,

I understand your point but can you define it as to the thought of the thread?

Mavis -> RE: The Characteristics of being "property" (2/7/2008 12:30:43 AM)

i like the idea of being property in that, for me, it says something about function.  As long as i operate within the "expected norms" for U/us, i get regular maintenance, attention, sometimes a special position, or whatever was agreed to at the outset.

But being property reminds me that i influence how i am used; cherished and kept, or taken out of service, based on my behavior or operating efficiency.  i don't expect to be removed from service for say, falling ill and unable to do certain things, but in as much as i can make myself useful, i stay in my happy place. 

i also thrive to some extent on the knowledge that even if i do all those things, i might be put away as a bike in winter at His whim, and that's good/bad/creepy/scarey/hot to me too!.

Mavis,

Well girl it seems that you have defined and accepted being property ///////// in a mechanical sort of manner.

I was thinking of a reply...but Padraig got it out first.  What he said.

quote:

ORIGINAL: Padriag

In all honesty.... I really don't give a damn.  I'm not being snarky at all in that remark, I'm serious... I just don't care.  I have no doubts some are throwing it around because it sounds cool, or because they have overly romanticized notions, or just a deep craving and need to "belong".  We've all got our motivations for what we do... whatever that is.  Maybe I'm just mellowing with age, or maybe its that I've got so much on my plate these days... but I find I really just don't care anymore whether what others are doing in this "lifestyle" is a fad, real, fake, or whatever... it doesn't affect me and it doesn't matter to me.

What matters to me is doing what works for me, which I am.  Also, finding those who share that... and that's the tricky bit.  But so far as sitting here wondering if Master Bob and slave Jane are living a "owner / owned" lifestyle as I personally define it... or even as anyone else defines it... I really just don't give a damn.  I wish'em happiness and I wish they'd keep their nose out of my business... but beyond that, nope, just don't care.

Probably not the sort of reply anyone was looking for, and might even surprise a few to hear it coming from me.  2007 was a year of change for me... I suppose this is one of the effects.

Uh, if you have ever been to an S&M event and seen the "slaves" running their mouths, playing grab ass, topping from the bottom, and or being attention whores


I think the behavior you describe above is *irritating*, but that's it.  It's only inappropriate (as slaves, rather than overall) if the individuals' owners find fault with it.

I avoid it, but that doesn't make it *wrong*.

I avoid it, too, as I would also find it really irriatating.  But I think his point was that if this is what someone is exposed to, then that's why seeing someone stand at attention for an hour would be impressive.  In contrast to that irrirating behavior, I suppose it would be.  Coming from a different perspective, there's no way to explain an opposing view without sounding like something I don't want to sound like.  There is no right or wrong here, just different perspectives.

I am what my Master says I am...lol..if it pleases Him to call me a bitch, whore, servant, piece of feces or His property...I'm fine with it. It's a word, my service does not change with labels...
