ORIGINAL: SirromancerX I understand that people have limits,but I find that many of the profiles I read here from those claiming to be slaves are very rude, demanding, even obnoxious, and very unslave like. C'mon folks we have all seen them! "I'm a slave, but I'm not a doormat!" Uh, actually sunshine you kind of are, sorry. Oh and how about "I''m a slave, but don't call me slave or girl. Well, alright then. These examples are not as bad as some I've seen, but you get my point. Now in these persons defense, I suppose over time one might get annoyed by some of the propositions as a slave they receive in a quest here to find a real Master or Mistress. Nevertheless, if you have extreme attitude issues, or want everything your way like Burger King, I would suggest that you are not a slave or that you have learned very little in your years of service. Either your a slave or you aren't. Perhaps your simply have a fetish for playing the role of a slave or acting out the part of a slave, but last I checked in the dictionary, being a slave had a very specific meaning. Some may say well everyone is different and has different standards , likes, dislikes, etc. True! Yet this simply means that not everyone is a slave and there is nothing wrong with that. A lot of people are simply submissive to varying degrees! Some may be extremely submissive, but not a slave in the true sense of the word. The word "slave" means something very definitive and we need to stop tossing it around so liberally. I myself have been guilty of using the term "slave" loosely. It's too bad we don't have a word that means borderline slave/submissive, slave(but not quite), or slave with limts), because that's what most "slaves" actually are. You're funny. Here's the simple truth. Slavery in the BDSM community is a relationship descriptor. Actually - let's try a simpler explanation. One wife is not answerable to all husbands. A person who looks to be a wife sifts through all of the potential husbands in various ways - exactly how depends on the potential wife. Some will seem to fit - those she explores further to narrow it down further. Eventually she finds the potential husband and they settle in for the real explorations. Hopefully it works and they live happily ever after. Once a woman is a wife, she acts however she acts, and as long as she and her husband are together, she is a wife. She cannot be "unwifely". She isn't fooling herself, just because some other husband wouldn't have a wife who behaves as she does. As long as they're married - she's a real, true wife. Apply that to BDSM consensual slavery. A person who desires to be a slave narrows the field in their own way. They narrow it further. They explore with the one they choose, who also chooses them. Hopefully it works and they live happily ever after. Once a person is a slave, they act however they act, and as long as they and their owner are together in that capacity, they are a slave. They cannot be "unslavely". They aren't fooling themselves, just because some other person wouldn't have a slave who behaves as they do. As long as they are in the m/s relationship - they're a real, true slave. It's really that simple.
