Mstr2you -> It Aint A Gift (12/13/2006 3:59:40 PM)
How many times do I have to read these words " submission is a gift". Fuck you and your gift. If submission is a gift it is a gift to yourself and while selfless gifts to ones self are always appreciated and one always knows just what one needs, saying that ones submission is a gift to the dominant is an expression of the submissives ego, not at all an altruistic expression of giving which is what they would like it to mean. Your submission, assuming this is real to you and not a frivoulous experiment in your sexual growth which is fine by me , is not a choice at all because it is what is inside you, it is part of you, it is a need you have. That being the case it is not a gift, it is a reaching out to your partner for a mutual satisfaction of your needs which in my opinion is exactly what this is about. In the most extreme form the sadist gets his or hers and the masochist does the same, no gifts are exchanged, just mutual needs met and I think that carries out through most bdsm relationships from the most sado maso to the most casual scening. Here is why this bother me. If what being offered was a true gift, as in ..here take this gift from me to you and do with it what you will , than there are no boundries, no limits, no choices because a gift that comes with conditions is surely not a gift at all and a gift that comes without any conditions can be used, ignored, or tossed in the trash at the receivers whim. I suppose that in the insane situation where a submissive were to give his or her self with absolutely no conditions or limits at all to a dominant than one could argue it's a gift but I would still say that they are doing it out of their own need and it is still a gift to themselves . Just my thoughts and yours are most welcome.

As far as I am concerned it is a gift... the submissive chooses to give you submission you do not take it... Ms. Lynn

I am actuall going to agree with Michael here. My submission to Master is not sexually based. He could cut out the sex all together, and I would still be his property, and he would still be my Owner. Mine comes from a mental state, not a physical state. As for the rest; I do agree. Submission is not a gift; it is something that is within me. I did not give Master my submission; he claimed ME.

Is this a christmas time post? Fuck you and your gift? I think you should wait to post until after Xmas day though. Maybe you'll actually get a few gifts of your own you like, and then you wont be out here yelling at the rest of us about our gifts.

gypsygrl -> RE: It Aint A Gift (12/13/2006 4:57:56 PM)
I never saw it as a gift either. Sure, submission isn't something to be taken, but I don't quite give it. It just kind of escapes. And, I agree that's its a pretty selfish thing. Oh, and the "fuck you and your gift" made me laugh.

Voltare -> RE: It Aint A Gift (12/13/2006 5:06:45 PM)
I agree with the meat, if not the sauce, of this. I'm sure LA is likely to post about two dozen threads on this oh-so-common topic, which polarizes the CAL (Community at Large) just like abortion rights and the death penalty. There's several different types of relationship models under the heading 'BDSM.' Some could be attributed to submission as a gift and respected as such, others that submission is an intrinsic quality that requires love and support, and some who feel submissives should be treated like the vile, filthy worms they are. None of these opinions or the dozens of possible alternatives are 'wrong' - and in fact, they aren't even mutually exclusive. Essentially, when someone suggests their own submission is a 'gift' it is usually an assertion that while submissive, they still have a desire to be loved, cared for, and respected. They don't wish to be objectified (at least not regularly) and do not wish to be treated badly simply because they are submissives. It seems that when people suggest other people's submission is a gift, it's an attempt to inject a sense of warmth and humanity in what they perceive as a cold and harsh environment (the CAL.) I think this is partially fueled by a perceived online community, as in my own life I've never met someone who demanded that submissives were doling out gift wrapped submissions - in reality, it was just part of who they were and even secondary to their own romantic aspirations. Incidentally, the OP didn't suggest that all submission was sexually based. quote: Your submission, assuming this is real to you and not a frivoulous experiment in your sexual growth which is fine by me , is not a choice at all because it is what is inside you, it is part of you, it is a need you have. He's saying that if the submission is really just kinky sex games, it's probably not just a apart of you. Otherwise, he believes that submission isn't a choice (to be gifted or otherwise) but rather a trait that requires expression, like love or hunger. He's not belittling submission as being strictly sexual. He does, however, need to learn you catch more flies with honey than vinagre.

I am in tears with gratitude that someone acutally got what I was trying to say and even got my sarcasm for goodness sakes. In the Christmas spirit I say to you my twisted friend that you are intelligent beyond your years and posess an almost uncanny ability to see the truth through the fog.

Missokyst -> RE: It Aint A Gift (12/13/2006 5:13:52 PM)
Way to make a favorable impression. I am not talking about the premise of a gift. Because really who the heck cares how someone sees it. If you have issues with gifts, avoid the people who view it that way. I would tell you to f that with your opinion, but really how you choose to present yourself doesn't mean much to me. After getting the gist of things I generally choose avoidance. Kyst

Renorei -> RE: It Aint A Gift (12/13/2006 5:20:07 PM)
If a submissive wants to call their submission a gift, that's fine, providing they are with a dominant who sees it as such. It's all a matter of how the two individuals feel about it. As long as they view it the same way (whether it is something to be given as a gift, something to be seized, or something in between), it's cool.

Perhaps you are a simpleton unable to process basic concepts. I really don't know and neither do you so keep your insults to yourself.
