Leonidas -> RE: What Is A Master (7/15/2004 7:38:12 AM)

Master (as the term relates to a slave) simply means owner, and can't really be defined in normative terms as you have done here, Malice. It can't because just about any description that you are likely to make won't fit the needs and desires of someone. Lets look at some of the things that you have said and see how this could be so: quote:
A Master is Kind, Loving and above A/all Understanding to his submissive/slaves needs and thought's Some slaves are absolutely, positively not looking for this. They're looking for a hard, gruff, demanding somebitch kind of owner who will use them hard and well, keep them under strict discipline, and if he does care for them, would never show it overtly. quote:
A Master will take his time to teach his submissive/slave the ways and means of what makes him happy without lashing out in anger because he thought she was some kind of mind reader and should have know what she did made her Master angry. Again, there are many slaves that seek the kind of master that isn't going to spend large amounts of time teaching them squat. He wants what he wants, when he wants it, and they'd better learn quickly. I'm not saying this is right or wrong, just that, even if you look through the profiles on this site, you will find slaves that want this kind of man. quote:
A Master should never think about punishment towards his submissive/slave. Instead his thought's should be focused on being served well and pleasing his submissive/slave as she pleases him. Many who identify as slave fully well expect to be punished if they displease, for any reason, no matter how trivial it might seem. All that really matters was that their master was less than pleased. My experience has also been that many who identify as slaves would be troubled if they even got a hint that their master was trying to please them. quote:
A Master will only punish his submissive/slaves if she has disrespected him or has angered him after being told what not to do. Many slaves expect that they will be punished for whatever reason that their master sees fit to punish them. I won't continue looking at every point, but you get the idea. What you have put forward here are very romantic notions of what a master/sllave relationship ought to be. They will have a broad appeal to many who read them. The only issue with what you have written here is that the language that you have used implies that to qualify as a "Master" you must adhere to these tennants. While this may be true in your community or group, it's not so in general. A master keeps a slave. That is about where the essential definition begins and ends. Take care of yourself. Leonidas
