But the key is *relationship* - as in one that's agreed to and committed to by BOTH Dom and sub or Master and slave. You don't owe anything to anyone you're not committed to, most esp some wanka giving themself a title...!

Focus.

Lol, I'm sure many of the fem/subs reading your comment will roll their eyes and ponder "only 3 or 4 guys???".

Welcome to internet bdsm.... :-) You don't owe the rude and obnoxious a damned thing - feel free to treat them with the same respect as they treat you.

I use the word "no" all the time. "No, I don't want to send you pictures of me naked, Mister Random Internet Guy", "No, I won't have sex with you just because you are a dom and we're poly", "No, I really don't care what you think of me/Valyraen/our relationship". I also *GASP* use it sometimes when talking to Val!

"No Sir, your shoes aren't under the bed. I know because I tripped over them in the living room... ".

But as we all know, I'm completely fake and made of candy!

i said "NO" to a Dom friend today and it really caught him off guard, ha ha! So it is rare for me. But you need to be able to do it.

Once Owned, the dynamic is totally different. But until then absolutely, and don't feel bad about it, you are protecting your future Dom's interest in you.

Whoever told you that NO is not an option regardless of your label is full of bullshit. Saying no is a legitimate right for all humans.Kinksters and non kinkster alike.

Some men are rude.  They will ignore your desires, and need to be forcibly told that No means No.  They fail to understand the concept of law.

Oh, and just to be fair...

Some women are rude.  They will ignore polite men, without even responding "No thank you."   They fail to understand the concept of positive feedback vs negative feedback

The word "cattle prod" exists as well... usually immediately following the word "no".

Okay. Technically "cattle prod" is two words. Sue me.

Status: offline 		Hi,
If you are not collared, no one can demand anything of you. You are correct. If you choose to accept a collar, you must discuss hard and soft limits with that Dom. You seem to have found a predator who has no idea what's required. Un uncollared sub answers to no one.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say they perhaps took your screen name a bit too literally. You want to say no, then say it. If they ignored you, then be glad you have been spared having to talk anymore to them. If they tell you that the word doesn't exist, then you can point out to them that since you just used it, it obviously does exist!

If they keep going, then you can also feel free to let them know a few other choice words that exist in your vocabulary.

Remember, you are a submissive by choice. If you absolutly do not want to do something you have every right to say no. If someone tells you otherwise they are wrong. you would have less right to refuse if you were properly owned but even then you would have the right to respectfully say no and open a line of communication with your owner.

Status: offline 		The phrase you need to memorize is this "I am (or will be) submissive to one and you aren't him". And then block the idiot who tells you that you have to spread your legs for anyone who asks.

This is a relationship and that means both of you need to be happy, both of you need to have good communication skills and both of you need to negotiate what does and doesn't work for you.

Now with that said, some subs don't say no after they've known their dominants quite a while. And others are supposed to say no if they feel that's the appropriate response. You decide what works for you and find someone compatible.

But if a strange guy in a bar came up to you and said women aren't supposed to ever say no, how would you respond? It's the same here. If you don't consent, it's illegal.
