Not illegal to own another human being... that is your supposition. Ok. Slaves have value, they are not cheap. Only an extremely rich person would run around killing their slaves. Not to mention, those who are born in societies of slavery have a different mindset than those who are not. Children of slaves would be taught from a young age to accept their stations in life. As someone pointed out, Native Americans would have rathered died than be owned. And had the opportunity to escape back to their tribes at the first chance. There was always the hope of freedom. African slaves didnt have that hope. No escape, though many tried, and were killed for their attempts. quote:
A slave by defination is someone who is owned and has no choices. Yet in profiles I see so many with limits and demands. Perhaps they are really submissives and not slaves. What one owner views as a submissive brat, another may see as a devoted slave. slavery isnt always about the slave within the lifestyle. slavery is also that commitment between the two that makes or breaks the relationship. Many will tell you, they could not be a slave to one man, and a deeply devoted possession to another. Relationships take work... my favorite saying is... slaves are not "add cum and stir" Since we are of a society that has taught their offspring to stand up for themselves, to not "cow tow" to others, to make their own way in this world, the mindset into real, actual, legal slavery would be a slow undertaking. quote:
Are you as a slave going into a relationship with the mindset that you will leave when it suits you or being a slave and remaining as such no matter what? Suits me? no, not at all. But, the moment I decide to leave, I am no longer his slave. That would be the mindset I would leave with. I made that choice, and it was a long, hard process with much doubts, tears, anger and self-flagellation. Yes, I felt like a failure for a long time. Then I realized, it wasnt just me that failed. quote:
Can you accept that you are owned with no choice even that of release? Can someone in consensual slavery truely be a slave with no choices and not just walk away because they are unhappy at times? I assume some can... and I know some come to that decision in a hard way. I begged release after 3 months, and was told no. I begged release every three months after that for 3 years. He wasnt happy, I wasnt happy, there really was no point. I eventually left, but didnt go far for a while, and we continued to see each other. But I simply realized that we were delaying the inevitable. And I moved to another state. quote:
An owner would have the right to sell or kill their slave in a real slave situation(not that it is legal)( and no I dont condone killing anyone). I speak here of the mindset of the slave. Can you as a slave set that in your mind as a possibility and accept that. Would that not be setting yourself up as a true slave, giving yourself over fully with no reservations and accepting everything as it comes? If someone had been raised with that ideology from the beginning, I could see that happening. But, now, its time to ask my own questions. You speak of someone being a submissive and not a slave because of their limits. If a man wanted a woman who enjoys anal, and ends up with a woman who detests it, then who is to blame if the topic never came up? If a man prefers no children, and she has her own. Do you believe she should just give them up to be "owned" by him because that is his desire? Maybe a man likes playing with needles, and that is the slaves biggest fear. Would it not be better for the two people to find compatibility in their desires? I truly believe a happy slave makes for a happy relationship. The happier she is, the more willing and accepting she will become.
