CarrieO:
They will say they are a victim of their own desires or need a woman (read; Mistress) to teach/train them to be what they should be.
Isn't this the key word? "Victims". They are victims. Victims of their desires, victims of themselves, victims of their nature, blah blah blah; Read: Victim, and that sums it up.
If they can't even assume their own desires, of course they need help. First and foremost they need help to be absolved. "I want to submit, I crave to be dominated, but really, it's not me, no no no, it's not my 'fault', it's not my doing, I'm a victim..."
It's primordial to them to establish the fact that they are not even responsible for the way they are lusting for sex, therefore they only deserve to be absolved. Next, they should be helped. And, how convenient, it invariably turns out they have a very definite agenda on how they should be "dominated", helped, for their own good, but of course.
The confusion probably comes from the word "submission". Those want to see in it the kind of submission they enjoyed as children. The kind that implies a little show of obedience on their part, in return for the complete slavery of the parents. Dropped into the big wild world, they whine! Oh how ready they are to submit to anyone willing to take the burden again. That kind of submission is very greedy, very selfish and very tyrannical. It demands, and gives nothing in return. Oh, children do give back to their parents in many ways, but these adults playing at being children are set at giving nothing in return. Many children are not cowards. Adult children are the ones who were cowards, and could never grow up.
Then there is the real life meaning of submission. It is demanding. On the submitted. It is a craving to be submitted. To serve. A lifetime craving. Those who crave it have a hard way to go, learning to cope with it. Learning the full implications. Accepting the consequences. And learning how to be able to serve a Mistress one day, to be useful to her, and not to be a pain in the neck.
Serving is not easy. It's enough to look at the life of a real servant, at a time when they were legions. Not a slave mind you, simply a servant, a soubrette for instance. One of those lucky to serve the rich and mighty, and thus enjoying a fate so much preferable to that of any other of her class. Still she was housed in squalid quarters, without heating, without any convenience. She went to bed only when dismissed by her mistress, late at night, but was up hours before her, before dawn, to wash in cold water, dress in the cold, and then creep down to her mistress' room to lit a fire two hours before she was due to wake up. And that was just the beginning of the day. She could have a headache, feel sick, be exhausted, have suffered a distressing loss, no one cared a bit. She still had to be ready to serve, looking good, a smile on her face, concerned about her mistress' mood, helpful, patient, resourceful. Any little soubrette had to be powerful, astute, resourceful to be a real help to her mistress. And she was not expecting any help in return.
And we are not even talking about slaves.
Those who want to serve had better be prepared. And had better be able to solve their own problems without letting it bother their mistress.
But they also have a real incentive to help them find that strength in themselves. And that incentive is only known to those who have no hope, no expectations. It is powerful because it comes from an irrepressible need. It is a selfish act to submit and become enslaved to a woman. But it takes courage to accept it. To accept that far from all the chivalrous crap of shiny knights in sparkling armour, there is no grandiloquent selfless sacrifice in submission, but a vital achievement for the slave, a natural act of symbiosis, where one creature becomes engulfed into another, absorbed, sucked. Even lost. And as all natural acts, it may be quite beautiful in its truthfulness, but it is quite implacable. There is no mercy, and certainly no retribution in nature.
For those who were born for it, this is the selfish appeal of slavery to them. It takes power to accept it, and they crave it because it will empower them even further. They selfishly need to be enslaved as it is the only way for them to attain that final stage of their development: slavery. They know their submission is anything except a gift they could make to their mistress, on the contrary, it is a gift bestowed by her on them. The slaves who understand that, are genuinely grateful to their Mistress. Instead of only thinking of what they feel entitled to get in return for their serving, they are at a loss to find ways to express their gratitude. They are thankful to be exploited by her. They don't expect her to be grateful, but rightfully demanding. They understand that only She could have let them out of their chrysalis and allowed them to mutate at last into that creature: a slave. Whatever She does to them then, it is their sole purpose to submit to it, She is the one who has created them. That is the power that will make them serve when they are feeling sick, love when they are ignored, smile when they are disdained. They know they have been retributed beyond expectation to start with when being enslaved.
Accepting the reason why he needed to be enslaved gives a slave the power to serve, in the same way as learning to be helpful to others is what gives people the strength to solve their own problems.
And then there are those who ask to be served by their mistress. Beats me. In the name of reciprocity I suppose? Blah... they do need help, indeed.
