No one has answered that question - not one dominant has spoken about how they might feel about a submissive who did pay for such training.

If she went to some kinky guy who hung out his shingle saying "I'm a trainer", then I'd wonder what the fuck is wrong with her.

If she had gone someplace to take classes in things like asian cooking, or massage, or something artistic, or yoga to improve her flexibility, or other things of that nature then I'd think she might be a keeper.

Actually, I did kind of chime in on the possible benefit of training, but everyone was having such a nice fight. I haven't been trained by MW nor owned anyone he's trained, but as someone in the locale I can say I don't think he's in over his head in offering to teach basic household skills and offering basic attitude-gauging introspection start-points (the most important part of training, IME)

I'll add that my slave had paid for his training in the past - his owner was a professional who eventually realized raw wonderful when she saw it and stopped charging him and put him in her household. I followed in that tradition - I met him in a professional capacity when I was doing pro sessions - realized good when I saw it and grabbed him up for my household.Which, in my personal ethical universe, means I stopped charging him.

So I guess I'd be someone who wasn't put off by someone paying for training - maybe there's less stigma on it in a FemDom context because the tradition is so established. There are definitely non-sub clients, but there are definitely sub clients who view their professional as paying for the opportunity in a grander sense, rather than for the session/play.
