ORIGINAL: steviemichael to be the property Like everyone else, I agree there is no right answer here. The concept itself is poorly defined and cannot literally be executed in most modern societies. Someone is property if they and their owner think they are. However, since you're clearly trying to figure out something, I'll give you my view relevant in my marriage. Carol "belongs" to me and has from the moment we made a lifelong commitment to each other -- in our case that came about in the form of marriage. In a more BDSM-ey way, it could be a committed collaring or god knows what else. But that did not make Carol my posesssion (and a human posession is what I call a "slave"). That only came along with this whole authority dynamic thing. And for me, the metrics are simple: a) She thinks she belongs to me as a literal posession in her own head. b) I think the same thing. c) That is reinforced by the behavior I'd expect to see of same -- namely 100% obedience.
