I don't believe it's a gift. A gift is something you give but don't necessarily get anything back for. I'd think a sub that got absolutely nothing back wouldn't be a sub for long. And you can't take back a gift, either. So how is it a gift. It's not.

Whichever, People how refer to it as a gift are to romantic for my taste anyway. All it does is make the relationship about there gift. Instead of it being about someone else. So, all the acts are about them.

I don't like that phrase at all.

Master/Slave, Dom/Sub are relationships not gifts.

The reason I think submission is a gift.. is because Master to get to open me all he wants to...and play with me all he wants to. And he's wise enough to know.. like other gifts he receives.. if he puts me in closet and doesn't play with me... the dryer who eats socks... has been known to call it's buddy.. the toy taker ..... and he'll find his toy not there any more.

No seriously... gift or not.. giving one self to another...... receiving what is given... taking what is given....... precious gifts... for all parties involved... to be cherished... loved... and enjoyed by each other.

Is Dominance a gift?

To me it is, cuz Im on the receiving end of it.

Ive never thought of submission being a gift though, but perhaps if Master answered He would say its a gift to him.

Submission is a gift?....... Nope. Not to me. To me it's just the natural way someone is. The yin to my yang, as someone once put it. Just like my dominance is no gift, it's just who and how I am. To me, someone saying their submission is a gift tells me two things:

1) It's not part of their basic nature so when all is said and done and we're alone, they'll revert back to a way that I will find very "non-submissive"

2) They are over romanticizing D/s. So when the "honeymoon" is over, what I may be left with is not what it started out as.

It seems to be something like surrender. If one is trying to surrender, there must be an "enemy" (perhaps a bad metaphor) to accept the surrender.

At that moment, the "enemy" takes responsibility for the care of the captive. Often, as at the end of WWII, the person surrendering tries to find a preferred captor, as seen when Germans fled the Russians hoping to be captured by Americans.

Well I think this question has a different answer in many eyes mattering on what kinda Dom/me or Master Mistress you have for me how ever it is a honour bond Exchange of love, duty, guidence, education. We learn more deeply when the dedication is founded with strict steel of Loyalty.

In the end it is a gift of 2 souls becoming one

Dominance is the desire to accept my submssion and revel in it; the insight to see how deep it is and where it might lead and the patience to let me feel safe to fully reveal it, with all of it's kinks and twists, while loving the rest of me as well.

Without all of that, dominance is just a word.
