ORIGINAL: Bravado CaringandReal, while your response was extremely informative, only one aspect of it was relevant to the discussion in which a distinction is being made between "true slaves" of the BDSM world, which are willing advocates of the kink in search of fulfillment, and unfortunate slaves of criminal trafficking, who are simply stuck. "Legal slave." I like this phrase. Your contribution perhaps closes a question I had presented, which to me satisfies the argument within this thread. So, to all you BDSM fanatics who will argue until the day you die that you are or own a "true slave," yes! It is true! You are right! But, you are not a legal slave, which will, I'm sure, soon become the "cool" thing to claim... Yeah, I know, I tend to "ramble." :) "Legal slave" is a term I can't take credit for. I've seen used on this forum many times, particularly in these types of discussions, to refer to the Old South slaves and Roman slaves, the Greek slaves, slaves of the American Indians, and so on, anything except bdsm slaves. It's also a nearly impossible title to claim! I think people won't do that because they would feel silly. Who will take it seriously, when slavery is illegal almost everywhere? Well, perhaps, just perhaps, if you bought an island in international waters, declared yourself a soverign country, and put on the books that slavery was legal in your jurisdiction... ? But there aren't that many islands like that (yeah, I looked into it once) and they usually aren't for sale, and even when they are, they would cost considerable resources to purchase and maintain. And you'd probably have to worry about pirates stealing your slaves. :/
