ORIGINAL: JLION I had this thought a while ago. What if I have a special slave collar that has bells on it. My female slave will only be allowed orgasm or sexual relief when she is wearing her "fuck bells". So in whatever way she is receiving her pleasure, she will hear the constant jingling of her special collar. If I do this for a few months or so, and consistently only let her have orgasm while she wears her bells what will happen? First, what you are describing is operant conditioning, not respondent (classical) conditioning. What might happen is that you might succeed in establishing the "fuck bells" as an antecedent to orgasm. What makes this operant conditioning rather than classical (respondent) is that the behavior (orgasm) comes under the exclusive control of the antecedent stimulus (the "fuck bells"). She does not orgasm because she hears the bells (which would be respondent conditioning), but rather the behavior (orgasm) only occurs under the control of a specific antecedent stimulus (hearing the bells) which then results in the reinforcer (the euphoria of the orgasm). Now I have a question, have you considered the possible consequences of this? While such conditioning is possible, just because you can do it doesn't mean you should. Its important to weigh the various consequences first and make sure its a good idea. For example, what happens if you lose the "fuck bells"? quote:
Would you be conditioned to be aroused whenever you hear bells? She might be arroused when hearing those specific bells, but not necessarily. The approach you briefly described did not include a specific element to pair the sound of the bells (a neutral stimulus) with sexual stimulation (an unconditioned stimulus) to produce arrousal when she hears the bells. So whether this would occur would be left to chance unless you modify your method to produce that specific result. quote:
Will you experience very much arousal during Christmas shopping season from all of the Salvatian Army Santas?  Unlikely, again because your method did not focus on creating arrousal at the sound of any bells. It focused on only allowing orgasm at the sound of specific bells. To create effect of being aroused at the sound of any bells, you'd have to generalize the stimulus response beyond just those "fuck bells". This heads back towards respondent conditioning, that of the conditioned response (arrousal) at the sound of a bell or bells. Thus you're talking about two different forms of conditioning, though they could be combined, they are two seperate processes. quote:
Will it be hard to reach orgasm WITHOUT hearing the jingling sound after a long period of this type of conditioning? That's entirely possible since that was the focus of your original method, to restrict her from having orgasm except when she hears those specific bells. You are in effect creating a "bell fetish". Likewise, one could condition a slave to only orgasm when permission has been given, probably the most common form of orgasm control. quote:
Any predictions on how this would work out? For most, it wouldn't work simply because they don't understand enough about operant conditioning and behavior modification to use it effectively. Most of the time I think that's a good thing, keeps people from implusively conditioning submissives to all kinds of nonsense and potentially harmful things. However, for those serious about it, the information is out there if they care to put the work into learning it. And happily, most who put the time and effort into it also end up learning a bit of wisdom about its application along the way. Good question though.
