I don't think there is any type of humiliation that I am particularly uncomfortable with using . I kinda go with the "whatever gets into the head" sort of thing.
If you get right down to it almost any type of humiliation [for the sake of kink] is not acceptable for general social interaction...which in fact is what makes it "humiliating".

My sister is black, my adopted daughter is racially blended (part black heritage) and I grew up in a racially blended family in Boston during forced busing.

So yes, while verbal humiliation is hot, and I can see the appeal of racially based verbal humiliation - I've got hangups. The words stick in my throat.

It's not logical - it's emotional.

i'm an African-American slave, owned by a white Master. i absolutely love verbal humiliation- it turns me on like no other. But there's one word so vile and downright humiliating it makes me wet just thinking about it...it's "nigger".

i've asked my Master to call me a nigger before and He said He'd consider it, which is all i can ask for. He did use it once, but only once. i'd love to hear Him say it again (He's got a southern drawl and when He says it, it sounds perfect!), but should i ask Him to again or should i assume that's He's uncomfortable with the word and let it slide?

Also, is this a common problem for white master, black slave relationships? i can't be the only black young lady that creams when she's called a "an uppity nigger whore"! ^_^


Can i ask you something? .... maybe i shouldn't.. i know it's none of my business... and maybe it's against the etiquette of this Forum... but....

did you ever experience racism when you were growing up? i mean.... when you were in elementary school? middle school? high school? college? did you ever experience racism?

Would some stranger calling you a "nigger" turn you on in any way...? Like if some white man in a mall walked over to you and said: "Get out of this store, nigger!" or "We don't let niggers in our store." would that do something for you? or would it hurt your feelings (in a bad way) in that context? or make you angry?

...is it only a turn on if it's someone you love...?

i dunno. Feel free not to answer me. ~ sorry if i'm being offensive by asking...

i'm not saying i think it's wrong that you like to be called that (as i like a little humilation too)... ~ i just don't understand... and... i guess i'm trying to.............

I wont presume to answer for the person you wrote this to, but perhaps will offer this.
Humiliation is again by definition something that in a general or vanilla context would be offensive, perhaps even highly offensive.
Concider the use of terms like "Cunt and whore" often used in bdsm type play, and is a real turn on for many, now the same person that can be turned on by that could be outraged if called that while simply walking down the street.
If you try to define and accept any type of humiliation play verbal or physical by what is accepted in "every day vanilla life" you will never be able to wrap your mind around it.

Exactly. Not to talk for her, but she probably likes it BECAUSE it's so horrible in a vanilla context. If anyone where to call me a "whore" in the vanilla world, they'd probably end up with a black eye- but in play it's a complete turn on- sort of like how I would NEVER want to be raped, but I enjoy play rape.

It all depends on how much you like humiliation. Some things might be going too far for some people, and those same things might be amazing for another.

I also cannot answer for ginger, but I've got to say... I like to say there are no stupid questions, but that one is making me rethink that.

She's black. She lives in the US. Do you think it's even conceivably, vaguely, wildly possible that the answer is anything but yes?

Very good points. ~ You're very right.... and you used an example that i can really relate to so that helped me understand a lot better. ^_^ i would most definitely be offended if someone random on the street called me a "cunt" or "whore" but.... with someone i trusted it would be a turn on... ~ so i can see how racial comments could trigger the same kind of feelings....... ~

Verbal humiliation didn't so much confuse me... just the idea of racial names.... ~ but! your example made it a lot easier. i should have been able to think of that on my own. ~blushes~

Heh. ~ Like i appreciated Kiaban's response, i really appreciate yours. Your example was different, but it also helped me understand a lot better... or... at least have a better insight about it.

i still don't think i'd like racial words spoken to me... as any kind of humiliation, but, it's easier for me to "see" how someone else might like that... after reading your example.... ^^ Thank you!

Umm........ that was kinda harsh. :(
i think it's also ...strange to assume that all black people in the USA have experienced racism. ....i don't know that that's true. ~ i have never been called a "nigger".... even though i've grown up in mostly white communities... i've never had anyone call me that (at least to my face - maybe it's happened bejind my back and i don't know about it)... ....and have never really experienced "overt" racism... ...

i have a sister who i know hasn't experienced any kind of racism at all (at least she says so... and cannot remember it ever happening).... so.... i don't like to assume that people are all racists.... Ya' know? It's possible that ginger21's experience was a lot like mine ...or even more like my sister's.

oops.. that said i do know racism exists and i do know that some people have experienced all sorts of negative things.... i'm not saying that doesn't happen.. i'm just saying it isn't part of everyone's life.

My slave asked Me to call her a "nigger" and I must say I was very uncomfortable with the idea at first. First of all I'm from an area in South Texas were I learned prejudice because of My surroundings, but I never learned to be prejudiced. I took a black girl to My senior prom in High School and tought Myself at a young age not to see a difference in people. Some of My best friends are black and if they new I was calling My black slave a "nigger" we wouldn't be friends anymore; at least I don't think they would feel the same way about our friendship. So My slave "ginger21" has convinced Me that calling her a "nigger" is OK because it's what raelly gets her hot and I like to make the bitch hot; so why not?!

But I could never do it in public and I will never feel totally comfortable with the idea, but it makes My slave happy. Ya gotta make 'em happy now and then.

First, I appreciate all the people that responded for me. They were all correct.

Of course I've experienced racism in America and like you've said, it's never been anything "overt"...I grew up in a predominately white neighborhood, but went to pretty racially diverse schools. I've been followed in stores and crap like that and I know it's because of my race.

So I find it utterly ridiculous that you would ask me if I'd get wet if some asshole walked up to me and said "Get outta my store, nigger!"...of course I'd be angry. Who wouldn't be?

The only reason it is a turn is because it is humiliating. And like Kiaban said, any type of humiliation play, particularly racial, would be unacceptable in the vanilla world. The only person I want humiliating me in this manner is my Master.

BTW, what Raphael said isn't harsh, it's true. Get off it.

Questions are the only way to learn and gain understanding. I just thought that question was ludicrous.

Don't mind me and my opinions. I'm just a lowly slave. ~_^

I have had both white, black, asian, mexican, and Amer-Indian slaves.. all have had a thing for humiliation. I was raised in a very un-prejudicial household.. Momma told about working in a diner when I was a kid and the owner telling her to charge the black guy at the counter double the cost for a coffee.. She told him no way.. Charged the guy the correct amount and told her boss in this guys hearing that if he had a problem with this she could find another job.. Now I like everyone equally but if you get a turn on from a simple verbal comment I can and have accomodated such things..

My black slave stephanie needed to be told to get on her knees and suck my cock with her big black lips. This used to get her to the point that she was literally having juices dripping down her leg.. I did not believe her at first and experiemented with it for a time or two.. But proof was in the pudding so to speak.. So I kept it up till the day we moved apart to seperate cities..

Little Leu-Ann wanted to be my little Jap Bitch.. Gladys wanted to be called my mexican slut whore..Lets not forget Katie who like stephanie literally had juices rolling down her legs when I used the words, "Spread your legs for me you half-breed indian bitch."

I guess what I am trying to say.. if the lady is turned on by something use it.. But like others warned.. be judicous in the use of such words out in public.. It can get you branded a biggoted hate monger.. Toss in a few bruises and too much noise some night and the police will be hauling your ass off to jail as an abuser..

You do not have to hate to use those words.. I just loved the reaction I got with them.. it was like turning a light switch on those gals.. it was magnificant. But as a rule setup set circumstances that they will be used or could be used in.

Thank You Master, for responding. Perhaps now people will get a better understand of what's goin' on with the two of U/us.

He doesn't do it 'cause He loves the word... as a matter of fact, He hates it. But he does it to make me happy...'cause He loves me.

I suppose it's a give and take. He calls me a "nigger", I try my hardest not to run away when He's using that evil "Attention Attractor" to whip me. W/we both gotta give a little.

Sorry if you thought it was harsh. It seemed, and still seems, a question at least bordering on the absurd.

I wish it weren't so, but that's life. I'ved lived many places, and I've seen it everywhere to a degree where it's just beyond imagination to me that any black person could reach adulthood in this country without encountering it.

It's great that you don't feel like you've been hit by it. I suspect that this may have more to do with your nature than reality - but that is a good thing, you know. Unrealistically optimistic people have less high blood pressure and less heart attacks, among other things. It's good to keep a positive outlook. Even when it's absurdly unrealistic, it's still probably good, as long as it doesn't lead you to do something stupid and get yourself hurt.

So I'm sorry if my realism is harshing your trip, so to speak. I'll shut up now and try to avoid doing you any more damage.

Funny this topic has come up. Racism is a big deal for myself. Partly because of where I am from, and also because of family members/friends.
I was born in Texas. We moved when I was 5, before any kind of 'bigotry' could take hold. Ten years down the road, we fly back to the area for my grandfather's funeral. As we left the house of a family friend, she mentioned something about "locking her doors at night, and keeping a gun." I was curious, as I have always been, and asked her why that was the case, since she used it in a present tense. She replied, as I will never forget, "My new neighbors are black". I was horrified. I denied it for years, that racism existed in my family.(Not my imdediate family, tahnk the high heavens). I realized, though that her racism was internalized. It was a bigotry that she had grown up with, and would never change at her age. I to would refuse to use racial slurs in play. Because of my past. I can't change the past, but I can change the future- though, saddly because of human nature racism will never go away fully- by not participating, o encouraging such behavior.

I'm offended by that. Texas may have it's problems, but I can't imagine it's as racist as- oh, Alabama or Mississippi.

Are you saying that by my Master and I enjoying ...well, actually just me- racial play we're encouraging racism? If that is indeed what you're trying to say, I find your argument to be ludicrous.

Like I said earlier, my Master wouldn't have taken me as his slave if he was a bigot. And what idiot is going to look at him and me and be like " I's gots to get me one ah dem negro slaves... they letcha call 'em a nigger AND beat 'em sensiless! I mean, I hate blacks, but how can I pass this up?"

C'mon dude, get real.

I wont presume to answer for the person you wrote this to, but perhaps will offer this.
Humiliation is again by definition something that in a general or vanilla context would be offensive, perhaps even highly offensive.
Concider the use of terms like "Cunt and whore" often used in bdsm type play, and is a real turn on for many, now the same person that can be turned on by that could be outraged if called that while simply walking down the street.
If you try to define and accept any type of humiliation play verbal or physical by what is accepted in "every day vanilla life" you will never be able to wrap your mind around it.


Very good points. ~ You're very right.... and you used an example that i can really relate to so that helped me understand a lot better. ^_^ i would most definitely be offended if someone random on the street called me a "cunt" or "whore" but.... with someone i trusted it would be a turn on... ~ so i can see how racial comments could trigger the same kind of feelings....... ~

Verbal humiliation didn't so much confuse me... just the idea of racial names.... ~ but! your example made it a lot easier. i should have been able to think of that on my own. ~blushes~

Exactly. Not to talk for her, but she probably likes it BECAUSE it's so horrible in a vanilla context. If anyone where to call me a "whore" in the vanilla world, they'd probably end up with a black eye- but in play it's a complete turn on- sort of like how I would NEVER want to be raped, but I enjoy play rape.

It all depends on how much you like humiliation. Some things might be going too far for some people, and those same things might be amazing for another.


Heh. ~ Like i appreciated Kiaban's response, i really appreciate yours. Your example was different, but it also helped me understand a lot better... or... at least have a better insight about it.

i still don't think i'd like racial words spoken to me... as any kind of humiliation, but, it's easier for me to "see" how someone else might like that... after reading your example.... ^^ Thank you!

I also cannot answer for ginger, but I've got to say... I like to say there are no stupid questions, but that one is making me rethink that.

She's black. She lives in the US. Do you think it's even conceivably, vaguely, wildly possible that the answer is anything but yes?


Umm........ that was kinda harsh. :(
i think it's also ...strange to assume that all black people in the USA have experienced racism. ....i don't know that that's true. ~ i have never been called a "nigger".... even though i've grown up in mostly white communities... i've never had anyone call me that (at least to my face - maybe it's happened bejind my back and i don't know about it)... ....and have never really experienced "overt" racism... ...

i have a sister who i know hasn't experienced any kind of racism at all (at least she says so... and cannot remember it ever happening).... so.... i don't like to assume that people are all racists.... Ya' know? It's possible that ginger21's experience was a lot like mine ...or even more like my sister's.

oops.. that said i do know racism exists and i do know that some people have experienced all sorts of negative things.... i'm not saying that doesn't happen.. i'm just saying it isn't part of everyone's life.


well hey if we all thought of everything on our own there wouldnt be much need for discussion and welcome to the forums. Some things if we are highly sensetive to them can really set us off at first until we sit back and see what is happening.
anyways again welcome.

I've had many blk subs and as long as they are confortable with me, know I love and respect them, then racial humiliation has always been a turn on to both of us. That'll include the N Word amongst other racial abuse during play. Its become an integral part of my D/s relationships now. Some I've introduced it too, some have always fantasied about it, very few have had a problem with it. If a black person overheard us I'd explain its part of our play.
