This post is an interesting twist on the previous "Male wives" post. I can understand the appeal of this sort of slavery, but I think any slave who consented to it would be in it for far more than the money, so it seems somewhat impossible in practice. The only way to make sure it was ONLY about the money is to agree to the slavery without ever meeting the dominant partner or even really talking much. That said, I do have a fantasy that one day I will be able to support a boy of my own (or girl, though girls seem much less inclined to that sort of dependence in my experience). It's not because I find that kind of dependence in any way hot, but because I have always wanted someone to take care of me and my home. I don't want that person to have to worry about anything but our life together. I am a very capable person, but domestic things make me feel like a total idiot. I have a lot of friends who are musicians, artists, writers, performers, and other things that do not make much money but are nevertheless very beautiful and valued. D/s issues aside, I have always fantasized about being a gajillionare, buying a big house, and inviting all my artistic friends to move in and pursue their art without worrying about the expenses of daily living. Even if I were to become wildly successful in my career I'd never have those kind of resources, but one day I can still be a patron to at least one special person. How cool would it be to have a poet on "retainer?" Or a classical pianist? Or a dancer? I think that would be the very definition of awesome. "I'm in the mood for some Beethoven; make it happen!" or "I'm sleepy, tell me an original bedtime story." or "Dance for my lady friends and I." or "Rhyme something with orange or I'll beat the ever loving shit out of you!" Okay, maybe not that last one. Then again, might be fun to torture a poet that way. "You have ten minutes to write ten lines of rhymed iambic pentameter. Ready, set, GO!" Anyway, I'll stop boring you all with my personal fantasies and get to the point. I would not be pleased having anyone indebted to me for money only, but nothing would please me more than the be the patron of someone incredibly talented and see them achieve their dreams while also making their talents available for my pleasure.
