The Leather Creed
Is that "The" Leather Creed, as in "The" One True Way?
quote:
We believe in consensual contracts, this means a renewing of a contract with a slave every 6 months and then up to three years, enabling the slave to be freed fully and completely, without obligation; should they so desire.
Now, I'm confused - if my slave contracts don't have a 'renewal' clause every 6 months, they're not consensual?
quote:
We believe in enjoyable sexuality, in exploration without coerce-ment, and in an enjoyment of power, not an abuse of it, not rape, not assault, and not enforcement of our will outside of those who have freely and willingly given their consent.
Gee - that rape scene I did wasn't enjoyable? Wasn't consensual? And since when has abuse of power not led to my enjoyment? Oh, well - it doesn't matter, since I've never met anyone F2F who has freely and willingly given their consent to this 'Creed'.
quote:
We believe in a willing power exchange, not brutality.
We believe in the fulfilling enjoyment of all parties involved, not of a one sided gratification.
It just so happens I like brutality, and one-sided gratification works just fine for me. Come to think of it, it's worked middlin' well with the folks I've used to get that gratification - they did tend to be eager for further brutality on later nights.
quote:
We believe in being held answerable and accountable, for all of our acts, and actions.
So, you won't mind being held accountable, and asked to answer for, posting this 'Creed' as if it were some universal rule? Good.
quote:
We believe in being worshipped and adored, not feared and hated.
This may not be the best route to worship and adoration in these parts. Not that it'll make you feared or hated - probably somewhere in the grey areas between.
Personally, I like to leave worship to the religious figures, anywho.
quote:
We believe love and enjoyment is a far stronger bond than terror and fear.
[:D] I believe you have not made proper acquaintence with terror, which does engender a remarkably strong bond. Fear is merely the wimpy cousin, and probably doesn't need to come into this right now.
quote:
We believe there is a line between acceptable indulgence of perversion, and the enforcement of one's own will upon another, which to us is unacceptable and completely reprehensible.
Oh, my - I guess I'm reprehensible, because of my fondness of enforcing my will upon others - who knew?
On the other hand, I've always thought that 'perversion' was, by definition, unacceptable. That's always been part of the fun of it, y'know?
quote:
We believe a responsive and receptive body and mind is to the greater enjoyment of all involved within any scene or community; and strive to attain this goal, peaceably; with others of like mind.
We've got a term for a responsive and receptive body being enjoyed by all involved within the community - we call it "party favor", or, for the crude, "gangbang". Honestly, I'm surprised to find that this is your kink. Your kink is okay, mind you - but it seems so uncharacteristic of you.
quote:
We believe in an alternate sexuality, not a criminal world of depravity and mental illness.
But depravity is such fun! Besides, I don't like to alternate my sexuality - it seems so structured and unspontaneous. FWIW, much of what's talked about here is criminal in most jurisdictions, and until the DSM-V, was considered mental illness as well.
quote:
Let us show you; teach you; share with you.
Um, thanks, but no thanks - I've gotta pass on this. I'm overdue to scrub the grout in the shower, y'know?
quote:
We do not believe in child slavery or involvement of children within our scenes.
Well, I'm fine with not involving children within your scenes, but child slavery? I don't care what anyone says - it's her damn turn to do the dishes, and that's final!
quote:
We do not believe in the involvement of those deemed unable to enter into such as are our contracts of their own free will and volition, which means we do not believe in the involvement of those individuals which society, or the courts may deem as: immature, incapable, mentally unfit, or physically unable.
So, if I'm unable to enter into such as are your contracts of my own free will (or with a straight face), then I'm immature, incapable, mentally unfit and/or physically unable?
Well, you're not the first to call me names, y'know.
quote:
We do not believe any animal can enter into such contracts as we require either, and so they too are unsuited to our desires and needs.
I'll admit, my first impulse was to ask whether it was the vegetables or the minerals who were suited to your desires and needs, but on second thought, nevermind - I'm not sure I'm old enough to know about such things.
quote:
We do not believe in polluting the innocent but rather seek out those who have sought us in kind.
Admittedly, I prefer experience myself - but do we really need to be so close-minded about this? Newbies aren't all bad, and there's only one way for them to stop being newbies ... and experience is only gained by polluting their innocent (whatever they've negotiated for).
quote:
We do not believe in abuse; it erodes the foundation of the relationship; loving enforcement serves us better.
Unfortunately, 95% of what I talk about (well, brag about) here is abuse in the eyes of society and/or the local law enforcement agencies. (Though, I will admit - if they do get involved, it certainly does tend to erode the foundation of the relationship - for 3 to 5 years, anyway.)
quote:
We do not believe in the destruction of family, morals, or ethics but seek to live our own codes within the confines offered by societies current systems.
Morals and ethics, being immaterial, cannot be destroyed. If you don't believe in the destruction of family, may I suggest you spend a weekend with mine? I personally guarantee you'll be having second thoughts about that.
quote:
We do not believe that we are so much different than you.
I do believe that you may have a surprise or two coming your way.
I understand that you've only been here 2 months, but really, I must commend you - this was exceptional. Thanks for giving me something to do while the 'nilla teen party overwhelms my house (and y'all didn't know I was a masochist....)

Sometimes it's the delivery, sometimes it's what they're openly despising - but once in a while, it's both. Wheee!
