I like your "new" definition of:  submissive.



So does "setting aside the free exercise of her rights" describe a sub where for a slave it would be, "SURRENDERING her rights completely to the decisions of another?"

i didnt surrender - that would suggest that i 'gave in', i didnt, i freely gave up my rights and accepted the authority of my Master.

For $400 monopoly money, your question is: "What's the one, twue definition of a switch?"

Phrase the answer as a question to earn a score of bonus brownie points.

It is possible that this will finally put and end to the sub Vs slave threads. For that alone I would thank you.

that will be kinda hard with new people coming on all the time with the same old questions

and beside i like questioning basic assumptions

you mean a sub?

Not really. His quick definition gives the implication that the yielding ("of rights") is happening in a comprehensive manner, in which case "slave" is more applicable than "sub".



In your opinion. In mine, it's a good definition of a sub.
And his definition does not state categorically that she lays aside all rights at the same time. Because damn few would be willing to sign over the deed to their house, ownership of their firms, sign away inheritances, children's college funds etc. And if that's what is required to be categorically and comprehensively then none of us are slaves except those who don't have anything worth losing.

Replace the word "almost" with "selectively" and (save for the gender thing) you're pretty much set again.



I'd say a submissive is better defined as "someone who selectively chooses to align her will with another's" because at least for me, being a submissive isn't about losing my rights. It's about exercising them in the manner in which I choose.

Yes, new today perhaps - certainly not new in the context of the endless debates on the definition of slave.

Notwithstanding the contradiction here (by definition if the setting aside is done freely, so can the taking back) and the stark contrast between this and real slavery - Where the rights aren't freely set aside, but forcibly taken, I don't think this is too bad.

(And perhaps make it clear that you are speaking of "slave" in a WIITWD context, lest any historical purists complain.)


There goes ten pages of posts into the trashbin...

BTW, what would be the natural unit to measure the frequency with which this term is redefined?

Jargon updates per page? Cluster fucks per week? Tufts (of hair) per new user per unread page? Kilobytes per day?

Health,
al-Aswad.




How about snarky posts per week?

exactly, there is no such thing as a true slave in our society

it's a case she has to freely accept decisions made on her behalf

Some may say this is a good definition for a submissive as well

change freely with selectively (courtesy of zero) to describe a subbie
