ORIGINAL: NickInSLC The first thing you gotta realize, is that 'slave contract' is nothing more than a fancy sheet of toilet paper should your 'slave' decide to leave. Slavery in this country is prohibited by the constitution. No amount of clever contract writing or fancy lawyering will defeat that. So, from the moment that your 'slave' makes known his or her desire to leave, you are guilty of kidnapping if you don't allow them to leave. BDSM is a lot of fun and a wonderful fantasy world. A great deal of what we do is theatrics, illusion, and fantasy. That so much is not real doesn't detract from what we do, on the contrary, it makes what we do all the more fun and exciting. The sensations, the evergy, and the interaction are as real as anything. But slavery as a reality? Please... Who in their right mind would consent to becoming a real slave? Real slaves are often beaten, maimed, or killed should their perfomance be deemed subpar. Real slaves are forced to do jobs too dangerous for people who have a choice. Real slaves are the first to go hungry when food is scarce. Real slaves are an expendable commodity in societies that allow them. The dominant with true power need not resort to contracts, threats, or isolation to retain their submissives. Such are the methods of the powerless 'dominant'. The dominant with real power knows that he or she can get a submissive to endure and even enjoy what ever twisted crap comes to mind, because the submissive wants to stay. That's why a dominant with power craves a submissive with power of their own. Only a deficient dominant will settle for a doormat submissive who'll tollerate bullshit like being in isolation. Okay, I'm done ranting. Hope I don't piss off too many people. Well said. I wish there was a better term to convey whatever it is that people are after when they lust after the title "slave." If anyone really thinks it's slavery they want, they should go spend a few months in places where chattel slavery is all too real, just so they can be sure they like it. Or perhaps they could respond to that profile, which has about two dozen alarm bells going off in my aged, dominant head. I have a couple of much more inflammatory opinions that relate to the topic, but I'll just keep them to myself. They might go way past pissing people off.
