ORIGINAL: Masternslave07 I am a certified hypnotist and use hypnosis very effectively on my slave. But hypnosis is not a magic bullet. It won't work unless the person truly wants to change the behavior that the hypnosis is used for. And it needs to be enforced continually. You cannot be hypnotized through a tape either. Those are useless. Subliminal messages in music or film don't really work either. In the 60's many rock groups played around with subliminal messages in their songs. Remember the "Paul Is Dead" controversy? Agreed. The one person I know who is a qualifiable success story was hypnotised by a skilled hypnotist who was there in the room working with him, and continued to reinforce the commands. He did in fact want to be hypnotised, he enjoyed the various games it allowed him to play, and he put work into changing his behavior to make the commands stick. Mind control and brain-washing fantasies are all well and good. I have a friend with a hypno-disk that he uses in scene - he knows it won't *really* work, so does his wife, but they enjoy using it as a prop. Subliminal conditioning and slave training as a functional reality, though? Not the way the OP seems to be presenting his question, especially from the *Total Control* fantasy he seems to focus on in his profile. Yes, if you're enough of an edge player (or plain-old scumbag, depending on whether you're bothering with informed consent), there are brainwashing techniques that will work - but once again, these are games for experts, not enthusiastic amateurs. Mind control tapes are amusing hokum. If that's what works for you, go for it. For the most part, though, claiming that there's a subliminal message works about as well as actually having one embedded.
