ORIGINAL: cloudboy That is clearly fucked up, and you are 100% right --- never, ever let anyone fuck with youe body and the way it is. Your body is yours, no Master or Mistress is going to have to live with the things they do to you, so tell'em if they want a branding or a tatoo ---- tell'em to get one themselves. She should sue him for intentional infliction of emotional distress and also for body disfigurement. She might even be able to file criminal charges as well. It's true. Lawfully, no one has the right to tattoo, mark, or permanently damage or modify your body except you. Your body belongs to you, lawfully. However, in some M/s and D/s relationships, people believe that their bodies are no longer their own, but belong to another on a physical, mental, and/or spiritual plane. These people often consent to markings, tattoos, modifications, or "damages", for whatever reason. This is their right, as a consenting adult. If a dominant asks or tells a submissive with whom they are in a relationship to get a tattoo, branding, or modification, it is up to both parties to consent to and go through with the process of completing said order or request. Something tells me that the girl in question (from the OP) was not forced against her will to be permanently marked with a taboo word. If this is the case, by all means, sue. But if it is not the case, and if she did consent, then what is the OP so up in arms about? Geesh. Some people consent to body modifications. Some people consent to extreme modification. Get over it. They obviously enjoyed it at some point or THEY WOULD NOT HAVE CONSENTED TO IT. Perhaps you will never understand the significance of a humiliating mark from a loved one when you enjoy humiliation, but don't knock it till you try it. (PS: The abuse argument...way over the top.)
