FR-
The problem with saying that in a D/s relationship, the power dynamic makes the "gift" different is where does it end? If one is "owned" and the owner is buying the clothes, takes over ownership of the vehicles, bank accounts, etc. and the relationship is of a longer nature (as opposed to the silly couple of months and all this "trust" is given), where does the return stop?
I agree that a kick to the curb on either side is valid. But if you have been providing the sub/slaves clothes for the last 5 years, do you keep them all? Because everything "belonged" to the dom, i.e. name on deed to the house, car, etc. (in both names in case of death and such), do you suddenly kick that person off with nothing but the clothes on their back? Sure the anger will make one want to say, "hell yes!" But in the end, what does that really say about the dom in question? Kind of sounds like an inability to control themselves when they get angry. Yes, in this example there has been a betrayal, but does that mean that mean the dom ignores all sense of dignity?
