LanceHughes -> Deal breaker? (8/21/2009 9:02:31 PM)
I'm a gay male Dom with 30-plus years in the scene. I have a slave applicant "on the line." He and I have been chatting for 3 weeks, getting to know each other bit by bit. Turns out he's been a "boi" (his word, not mine) for 24 years and has an "overwhelming" desire to be a slave and to learn about BDSM. So, what's the problem? Tonight, I found out that he is addicted to gay porn. I know addiction to drugs and/or alcohol would be a deal-breaker for me, as it would be for most. Of course, most female subs are not drawn to porn, much less addicted, but let's throw this out there and see what we get.

DarkSteven -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/21/2009 9:04:19 PM)
I assume you're referring to online porn? If you're RL, restrict his Internet access.

LanceHughes -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/21/2009 9:14:38 PM)
Not yet RL.. He's "willing to re-locate." I'm looking for people to post that have had addictions in their slaves. NOT easy to restrict access to on-line porno. After all, isn't that why God gave us libraries? I can see sending him on an errand that just happens to take longer than it "should." Let me re-phrase the question: "How can a slave serve two masters? Me and his porno?"

A slave serves his or her Master or Mistress alone with such flim flammery as cyber porn, computer games and TV being something to spend what free time the slave is allowed. Such pursuits are secondary to the service to an owner. Breach that and the deal or collar is broken jusr as it woulkd be were some one to make the mistake of coming between Lady Neets and I. BHags packed out the front doos arse on pavment outside the property and hit the road jack (or jill)and no questions asked or discussions entered into. My word in my home is law.

Well, without putting too fine a point on it, he's looking at gay porn, right? addict your ass to it all you want, You can watch that shit 24/7/365/ so long as my needs are met. If he is addicted to pictures of pussies, whole nother deal. Why addicted? How addicted? like cigarettes, or like pulling up pants? See if you can wrap your arms around this 'addicted', might not be nothing ............just a word, but you can't master what you don;t know the first fuckin thing about

Unless he's making really bad decisions as a result of this porn habit (like overspending on it, for example), then I don't necessarily see it as a problem. I think porn gets you into a weird little feedback loop with creating desire and sating it...it gets sort of like Pavlovian conditioning, maybe. Depends on what the actual repercussions are, but I think that, usually, this is one of those "addictions" that people can handle themselves, if they feel they need to. If I had a sub habituated to porn, I'm not sure if that would be a bad thing. My point of view, of course; other's mileage will vary.

VampiresLair -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 5:32:59 AM)
If you cant take enough control over him to make him give up something as simple as porn, then do you really think he is going to be the slave for you? Giving up nicotine and drugs and alcohol have to do with major chemical dependencies in the body. Giving up porn means that he is not given free access to masturbate whenever he pleases any longer. I dont know anyone who watches porn for the amazing plots and fantastic acting. As part of your training, limit his masturbation. Orgasm control is a very useful and common starting point for newer BDSM couples of any gender. If he cannot put you first and obey your rules, then let him go. If he can, problem solved. DV

After all, isn't that why God gave us libraries? I can see sending him on an errand that just happens to take longer than it "should." Let me re-phrase the question: "How can a slave serve two masters? Me and his porno?" It's clear this guy's addiction is affecting you, but I am curious as to how it is affecting you? Does he not do as he's told (or, more likely, when he is told to do it?) because he's cruising the porn sites and can't drag himself away? Or do you just see trouble ahead and a discipline problem becuase he admitted this addiction to you? I'm wondering if at this point you have an actual obedience problem on your hands or just a potential one? Also, what does he personally mean by 'boi?" I've seen the term used in a wide variety of contexts, it's one of those newly-minted words that does not have a standard definition yet, it means many different things depending upon who you talk to. No, "parental controls" don't work very well with adult slaves--they can usually figure out how to hack them. ;) But while you can't restrict the porn or his potential access to it, what happens when you restrict him? Have you experimented with this? Ok, you did say three weeks. That's a little early to be testing remote orders and trusting them to be carried out, although you can start with some very small, easy to comply with and verifiable commands (nonsexual or at least unrelated to porn) and see how well he obeys them. That will give you some kind of indication of how much trouble he's going to be to train to imeediate and complete obedience. Most submissives, especially those with no experience, need some kind of training in this area, as you probably know. They don't pop fresh from the toaster knowing how to obey! Maybe you could order him to orgasm without access to any pornography for several hours before. If he was compliant you could gradully increase the frequency of this, until he is cumming exclusively from the thoughts in his head. As he does this sucessfully, reward him. A good reward for many submissives is acecss to their dominant. Playtime, over the phone or in chat, or if you don't play directly that way, just talk to him about what you intend to do to/with him.

DesFIP -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 6:27:28 AM)
It may well be that after he's had enough of the real thing, he won't need the porn any longer. But if he's feeding his kink needs with the porn, then he shouldn't need nearly as much of it once he's satisfying those needs in r/l. Ask him if in past relationships he would spend his free time surfing porn sites and not with his partner or if the porn was for alone times.

windchymes -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 7:46:16 AM)
I'm not completely sold on the idea that he's actually medically "addicted" to gay porn. I mean, many times in casual conversation I've heard things like, "Oh these cookies are addicting" or "I'm addicted to buying shoes". I personally consider myself "addicted" to my morning coffee, I'm drinking it right now and get a horrific headache if I haven't had it in a day or so. But if I decided to give it up, I don't need to go to rehab. An Excedrin would get me though. I suspect he's just a horny guy (and there's nothing wrong with that!) who looks at porn a lot, it turns him on and he gets off on it, and he finds himself back watching it, but a true addiction? I'm doubting it. Like the word "fetish" I think it's just another word that gets overused incorrectly, but is kinda fun to use.

fuzzywumpas -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 8:41:21 AM)
OP, as a female submissive, who enjoys her porn and doesn't mind admitting it, I would say that, based on personal past experiences with a few people addicted to porn, that yes, it would be a deal breaker for me. I've been in a situation with a Dominant who preferred staying up late watching online porn and cybering than doing anything with me. No matter what I was willing to do, and I have quite a range of pleasures. Maybe it's not commonly known but watching something, like porn, actually changes the pathways in the brain and studies have shown that addiction to porn can be a medical issue. It literally changes how the brain works and future sensations, physically and mentally. That doesn't even begin to take in to account any other issues that might come into play from the "addiction", like no job (too busy watching porn to hold a steady job), alienated friends and family because of lack of interaction (again, preferring to watch porn over r/t activities and people), as mentioned before - overspent money and financial irresponsibility because of porn, all sorts of things. So unless they could prove that they have stopped it, yep! It's a deal breaker with me. I will never allow myself to go through again being ignored so someone could go wank while watching porn. I'm still dealing with the negative emotional issues from that crap. And as a sub? If I was to ignore my owner in favour of the porn, I would expect severe discipline, but then again, if you're too busy watching porn, how would you even know you did something wrong, especially since you told your owner you were addicted to it?

LanceHughes -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 8:53:30 AM)
OP here: Thanks to all for the great comments / suggestions. Clearly, I left out the level of "addiction" (not purposefully, mind you.) I was so very, Very, VERY angry when I found out about this, that I just raced over here and typed up my question to y'all. The "left out part": I was waiting in chat at an agreed upon time when he showed up some 40 minutes late with the "excuse" that he had been checking his e-mails on 50 (count 'em - fifty) Yahoo groups. I think the obedience question is resolved, don't you? If he can't get his ass to a chat session, I'm sure he's not for me (your mileage might vary.) Thank you all for helping me think this through. Regards, Lance P.S. Did I say how angry I was? LOL

Rainfire -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 9:07:35 AM)
[&:] Ow, that's a bit much, OP.... not your anger, I agree with it, but in what he did. "Bad boy, very BAD boy!" If I was 40 minutes late for a meeting with Daddy, I'd better have a damned good excuse but checking email and missing Him? OH HELL NO - my ass would be busted and I wouldn't be sitting for a while! Good luck in your search! [:)]

DarkSteven -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 9:18:51 AM)
So his yahoo groups come before you. Lance, this is in the courtship stage. It ain't gonna get better.

After all, isn't that why God gave us libraries? I can see sending him on an errand that just happens to take longer than it "should." Let me re-phrase the question: "How can a slave serve two masters? Me and his porno?" Carol is addicted to Alchohol. In our case, this isn't an issue because her addiction, along with all the rest of her, was given to me. Since I'm not the one addicted to the chemical, I have much clearer viewpoints on the problem and various mitigation and resolution strategies. In the end, Carol cannot serve two masters, nor would I let her. But she's decided that being my slave is more important than drinking. Everyone's definitions are, of course, their own. But when I think of "slave", I think of TPE. And the "T" in tpe includes ... just as you'd expect... everything. Let me point out that alchohol is also readily available and it'd be trivial for Carol to sneak drinks in one way or another. If I even suspected this was possible for her, I wouldn't consider her my slave.

LanceHughes -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 10:03:00 AM)
Question for leadership527: OP (original poster) here: I'm guessing TPE = THE power exchange. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Rainfire -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 10:13:45 AM)
TOTAL Power Exchange, OP.... (But I apologize for not being Leadership, though he and I have often agreed on a number of items.) [;)]

I didnt like porn in my younger years but I like watching sexandsubmission and also TSseduction and Boundgods. The "gay"porn turns alot of straight women on even though we are not interested in actually being involved with those men, we like to watch it! [:D]

Toppingfrmbottom -> RE: Deal breaker? (8/22/2009 10:21:38 AM)
Not everybody watches porn to geth orny or with the intention of masturbating later on. Of course I know those who don't watch it for those reasons are rare. Sometimes if the porn is lame enough I'll watch it with Daddy to make fun of how stupid it is, and one time at a fem dom sleep over party we watched some really bad porn to make fun of it and laugh, quote: ORIGINAL: VampiresLair I dont know anyone who watches porn for the amazing plots and fantastic acting.
