We have discussed at great length my little one being marked when I move in.  I was not overly keen on the idea but once she laid out her thoughts and the reasons why she wanted it I had a change of heart.  We are getting a butterfly on the small of her back and she has an idea of it sitting in a hnad ( need to have someone draw it out) and use the same colors as in my arm band to tie the two tats together.

Both my slaves wear a charm around their neck 24/7 and only comes off with permission.  When it's off it's usually because I have placed either the Dress Collar or the Play Collar on them.  I have two of each that is specifically marked for them individaully and both are locked on. 

However, by far the most significant is the mark on their right thigh.  Both girls have a cutting of cross swords on their upper thigh.   The location is discreet and few ever see the cutting.  I prefer symbolisms to be more discreet in general and the more overt symbols to be used sparingly.

Recently my Mistress has been speaking with a few male subs. During the course of several conversations the subject of wearing a collar and being tattooed comes up as this is how they (a Dom/Domme couple) choose to mark those they own.

Mind you this is not done casually; to all of us here a collar is serious, much like a wedding ring. Master and Mistress both have collared others, male and female (Master IS straight), though i am the first they have marked with a tattoo which matches their own.

My curiosity is now aroused by the various reactions the possibility of being kept in a 24/7  locked collar and eventual tattooing has drawn.

Of fellow subs/slaves  i would like to know how are you marked, how do you feel about some sort of mark of ownership other than a collar?

Of owners i would like to ask how do you mark your slaves? What type if any of permanent marking would you employ? What kind of reactions has this drawn from your perspective subs/slaves?





We all know and understand the seriousness of what a collar means. But permanant markings? That is a HUGE commitment.

To answer your question, i feel as if i'm too young to be permanantly marked; owned for 24/7. I have just started out in the lifestyle no too long ago, and to commit myself to one dominant for life.

That's what i think permanan marking is: a commitment for life to your Master. And i know i'm just not ready for that.

The idea, however is interesting, and i think, maybe one day, i would like to be permanantly marked. For now, my dominant is talking about piercings. I'm not so sure about this, since, the hole will still be there, even if after i decided to leave him. And i will always have those memories of us together.

I also feel this way about vanilla tatooing. What i like now, might not be what i like, 10 years from now. I feel the same way about lifestyle markings.

It is a huge commitment and bravo to you for realizing that and waiting for your One.

Iwas tattooed for 18 years to the same Master, he is in the wind now. Never would i make such a choice without much thought, yet 6 years after his passing i am again tattooed and they have promised not to die, lol.

All jest aside i absolutely love and adore my owners and plan to be here for the rest of my life.

The way I look at it, for me, is this--even if my relationship ends, the effect he's had on my life won't. It isn't our style to get something like initials, that are that spesific, but even if it -were-, tattoos for me show who I've been, what I've felt and what I've done.

If my Owner chooses to let me wear a mark for him, and we later end our relationship, it's not going change the fact that he has had a profound impact on my life and my personality. For me, tattoos are about recognizing that impact.

The tattoos I have now express bits of who I am that I want to make the worlds see (I'm big on visibility) or make -myself- see so I don't write off that part of myself. Yes, tattoos are with you forever, but I think that's a good thing. If you get a tattoo for someone, you -can't- just dissmiss that person from your life, nor can you dismiss who you were when you got it. I thikn that's good as well.

To be heartless, if someone aggrees to belong to someone within 2 weeks of knowing him/her, and takes his/her tattoo within a month, then in two months they've broken up, then the indivual has a lot more trouble shrugging off the relationship, and (I hope, at least) would be reminded to be a a little more considerate when jumping into another relationship. -That's- what I mean about reminding you of who you are.

This may be the wrong place to ask this...but my Master, Bear, would like me to become his numbered slave.  He was told that I could register at this website.  He wants us to each wear that number is some sort of marking.  Can anyone help me?

I have also seen slaves who will wear their registry number as a barcode tattoo . they can be very nicely done. you might want to get it someplace inconspicous as KnightofMist has mentioned of his girls .... this way should something happen long term that you end up somewhere else in your journey it will be just a reminder to you and no one else will know

No problem.  I especially like all the pictures of how people have engraved the numbers onto tags and jewelry, not to mention the different tattoos.

I don't need to worry about permanent markings for a long while, but the pain implied in actually getting a tattoo or branding makes me squeemish (not a masochist). Not to mention if the relationship should end. I wasn't interested in piercings, either, at first, but now I think I'd rather have the piercings than a tattoo or brand. Usually the hole left behind will eventually heal if there's nothing to keep it from closing in on itself.

the pain of a tattoo is over rated . it's more like a sunburn or a slight roadrash depending on where the tattoo is applied ...... the more fatty tissue where the tat is applied the less the pain . and the thicker the needle also the less the pain .... hell I used to tell women . if you can endure child birth . getting a tattoo is a walk in the park.

The pain of a tattoo kinda turns me on. I shouldn't call it pain because it's not pain for me at all.

ive never posted before, so please forgive me. i just finally found a topic that really caught my eye. i love markings of all kinds and collars.
the collar i wear is one that i picked out with permission from my Master. it is a small silver chain necklace that i havent taken off in close to a year. it means alot to me and makes my stomach sink to ever think of it coming back off.
Master does not wish to tattoo me, at least as far as i know, although i do have 3 already.
my first tattoo was a marking in a way though. my vanilla bf at the time designed tattoos for us. mine a tribal with a heart with a keyhole in the center, and his a tribal with the key, because it was my idea that he would always have the key to my heart. i got that tattoo as a symbol of him and our love. soon after he passed away and i would never regret getting it. that mark to me not only represented what i had, but also represents what i am capable of having. that man taught me alot about loving and life in general and made me a better person for it.
i think that markings are a beautiful way to decorate the body and if the right emotions and feelings are behind it, it is the right choice. Like a previous thread stated, the only real failure is one you dont learn from.

Of fellow subs/slaves  i would like to know how are you marked, how do you feel about some sort of mark of ownership other than a collar?

I have ink.  It is a very personal expression of creativity to me, and all of my ink both current and what is planned has been designed by myself.  All of the designs have some specific and special meaning to me, personally, though they might not "mean" anything to anyone else who looks at them.  A couple of the currently planned pieces are based on fond memories of various men in my past, though those men do not own me - and never have.  Whether I would consider allowing someone else to dictate my future ink depends on an awful lot of factors.  Whether his desired design meshed with what I've already got.  Whether it was something that was recognizable as "his" sign only to him and me, or to everyone.  (I won't, for example, allow a banner with english script of his name or "So-n-so's Slave" )  Whether the relationship was both stable, and appeared that it was going to remain stable for a very Very long time AFTER the ink went into place.  I wouldn't, for example, do more than laugh at someone who suggested that I get a tattoo of "their" symbol when we'd only been together a few months - though if we've been together for a few Years, it might become a consideration.  Most likely though, I would refuse to consider such an act unless I was Married (legally) to my S.O., and splitting up would take a lot more than simply one of us moving out of a shared house.
 
Ink is PERMANENT.  It will be with me until the day I die.  Any given relationship may or May NOT be with me that long.  If it is going to mark my body for the rest of my life,  I'm going to be Damned certain that it's something I can personally live with even if I find that I can Not live with the person who inspired it.

(Edited to add : Tamer is correct in his comment about the pain of tattoos being a bit over rated.  I expected it to be nearly unbearable when I got my first, but was addicted to the sensation by the time that trip in the chair was finished.  Childbirth was MUCH worse.  Piercing even was a relative drop in the bucket - over in a flash.  Probably the 'worst' place to get inked has been right over the bone - like on a shoulder blade if you have very little fat on your back - which is where I got my first piece.  Granted, I'm a masocist and pain junkie, and have an extremely high pain tolerance to begin with - but I also have a phobia about Needles that I had to contend with first time out, which made it terrifying for me even though I'd had it planned for nearly 20 years.)

At present, My slave wears a collar, but I've been planning a memorial tattoo in honor of my departed Master. His favorite icon was a phoenix, and I've been working with a tattooist to draw a phoenix rising with a red rose (dominance), and a white rose (submission), crossed in his talons... The banner at the bottom will have his name, when tattooed on me. The banner will have My name on cubby and anyone who ever wears the tattoo in the future.
 
I've planned to build "The House of Phoenix" for years, but have taken time because when something like that is done poorly or quickly it becomes an object of ridicule (rightly so). In My opinion, that wouldn't be a very good way to memorialize my Master, so I've waited patiently until My life was right to institute it. Within the year, cubby and I will wear the tattoo, and should anyone else be in my household in good standing for a set period of time, I'll consider allowing them to wear it too.
 
I've considered branding, but I think it's just a bit too extreme for me or mine -expecially considering the brand heals and disappears within a few years on most people anyway.
