Submission from a slaves point of view. Is it of
choice, want, or desire? What am i and what are you? For most of
us the choice to be submissive is something that is made everyday.
i've heard
submissives
say: "i'm a poorly trained sub", "i'm
hard to break", "i don't follow orders well". All
of these confuse me, make me think and wonder. How can you not
follow orders well? What wouldn't you door or Why wouldn't you
do what the person you have agreed to
call "Master", "Mistress", "Dom", "Domme" or "Top" asks/tells/orders
you to do. Why wouldn't you strive to always do that which makes
them happy. This is
something confuses me.
Now
i am not talking about bottoms/masochists who like to be played
with or beaten or caned, or whatever the
kink
is they enjoy. Nor
am i talking about the ones who are using submission as a means
to an ends. i am
talking about submissives, ones who desire to serve and are "lifestylers" to
use a simple term. i classify myself as a slave because it is what
i am. for this i
will use submissive to encompass all that enjoy submission, slave
or sub or bottom.
i've
realized i was different a long time ago, and am slowly realizing
what that difference is. Submissiion
is a desire
for me, not a
choice or a want, a need. it's a need like breathing, hearing those
words "Good girl/boy" makes me shake and quiver inside.
i see others struggle and it makes me think. Made me write and
pen this on an early sunday morning.
Submission
of choice. For some, switches included, submission is something
they choose to do. it's part
of who they
are and what
they are, make no mistake about that. . It's a choice for them,
one they may make every day. you can see it when they let it go,
turn it on, or let loose. it comes out from them, but
it is clearly a choice they make. They choose to be submissive
and hence may be told they "top from the bottom". They
don't...they only choose that which they offer to any given person.
They choose when, what and who the offer their submission to and
that may change at any time.
Submission
of want. For others it's a want they have, they have had and
they want to submit, but
can't find the
right Person. These
will find one and will submit to that one, but to the world and
to some they may be called "Switches" or bottoms. The
submissive of want,
doesn't make the choice to submit when they find the person who
flips their switch (wink and a poke at all
the switches out there). you can see it and you can feel it but
it's not towards you. When it is towards you it is a marvelous
thing. But the choice to submit to someone, anyone or anybody is
a choice they make. they may struggle not reaching an inner peace
that say's it's okay to just be submissive. to just let go and
not worry about the world. to not worry about others and what they
think and just embrace who they are and what they are. When they
find the one they are able to let go with they can find that place
that makes them happy.
Submission
of Desire. For others it's not a choice, it's not a want it's
who they are at the core.
It's what makes
them up and
what makes them tick. They submit to all, yet are not submitting
at all or to anyone. It's not a choice because to say it's a choice
implies they can say no. Now don't get me wrong they can and will
say no, probably in a polite manner, A few think being a doormat
is what this is about. It's not about that it's about me, you or
them. When you see them, you know it immediately. They offer themselves
as is, submitting 24/7, yet still they need Someone who accepts
them as is. They receive pleasure in just submitting, but submitting
to all does not mean they are Your submissive. Submitting to "all" is
being who they are and what they are, it is that simple.
It's
hard to say what makes me tick, makes us tick. i know that seeing
others in the lifestyle makes
me think and glad
to be who
i am. i know what i am and who i am. i am me, and i revel in me,
and my submission every day. i struggle with letting it go and
always worry others will see me in ways that are not. but then
people say things "it's nice to see a submissive who truly
desires to serve. who isn't in it for “sexual gratification" and
i wonder how others can not enjoy the simple smile i see when i
make someone happy. others don't know the inner joy from taking
a coat, opening a door or even just giving up my chair. it's not
a want or choice, it's a desire to me, a need to me. Yet even with
all of that, it's still something that i struggle with everyday,
some days more than most, other days i don't think of it at all.

| Thanks
to Barbara Nitke, Chris M & our Silent Auction Donors
We wanted to take a moment to thank all who made
our February meeting so much fun and so educational. It took lots
of time and energy on
the part of many people but it was all worth it!
Barbara
Nitke showed us a wonderful slide show of her photography which
makes a great visual history
of the scene.
She’s also
a very funny and engaging speaker. Let’s hope she gets a
contract to publish her book!
Chris
M treated us to a “pre-release” reading of his
delightful “A History of SM in America (according to Biker
Nick). From the audience reaction it seems safe to say it was a
smashing success!
We also held a silent auction to raise funds for
the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom. Thanks to everyone who
donated items to auction.
We raised $560 for a very good cause. So thank you one and all!
Love, Satryicon |

Sweetly
Mine!
by VielD
(All Rights Reserved)
I
think I shall warn you NOT to wear any clothes you wish to keep...
Manacles
behind the back first, then leather cuffs locked on the ankles...
Cool
metal of the knife blade slices through fabrics....Till only
the black leather belt is left around your waist.....clothes
pins
around each aureole, and clamps on each nipple....
Rope
being rove through the ring of each ankle cuff, and looped up
over the belt...Ankles tied up close beside the
butt cheeks....
Caressing
and massaging and squeezing all over as You squat before me,
your lower lips dampening the handwood floor.
Behind
you I wrap a sleeve around both of your arms... It laces up the
center, and is denim....As I lace it
and tie
the laces,
I also secure black leather belts around your upper
arms and elbows...I remove the manacles and lace the sleeve
to contain
both of your
hands, buckling another belt just above your wrists... I
bend you forward over an ottoman, and redden your cheeks well
with my right hand and my paddle, plucking and then
removing the breast clips and closthespins...
Love
those sweet squeaks you make!!
Especially
the moans and squeaks as I slip a little plug in your rosebud....
the lube runs, and you realize
it REALLY is
a nicely
peeled bit of ginger root...
Floggers,
spoons, hairbrushes, quirts.....
Cuddles
and caresses....
I
ask if you are hungry, as I hold the ginger root before your
lips...you KNOW it was not supposed
to come out
yet..
you
say "As It Pleases You, Master" even though I see
the revulsion in your eyes and your head shaking "Nooo".
This
Pleases me, and I thus toss it away, before giving your ass an
excellent caning..... Your
sweet sobs echo through the room as I roll you back onto your
back....my thick plastic
spoon
thuds
well upon
your sore
breasts
and nipples...and splashes SOOOOOOOOOO sweetly
as I paddle your cunt and clitty!!
Master
loves your gushes and throbbings, your wiggles and sobbings!
Now
Master takes HIS Pleasure.... Kneading and caressing a breast
in each hand He
gazes upon
Your sweet hot
cunt, dripping,
snapping
lightly at Him...
His
tongue goes deep inside, and laves His slave's sweet center...savouring
her juices,
her moans,
her total submission,
tasting and drinking
as it Pleases Him...
Master
licks and caresses and strokes the slave as He likes, tormenting
her
hot lips
and nipples
and
clitty, enjoying
each gush of her
juices.....releasing the belt, caressing
her legs....Holding her....releasing
the sleeve.....cuddling
her close
in
His arms to Cherish her ! vield@aol.com

warm and soft
her scent in the air
soft and sweet
her hair brushing over my neck
sweet and gentle
silence and nothing
thud of a flogger again
hard and heavy gasping again
dragging over my back
falling across my thighs
snapping hard on my shoulders
swift and heavy
panting and gasping
oh yes She is near

BD/SM vs. Magick
By VielD
(All Rights Reserved)
Each of us has a unique path, and thus what is
right for one may not be for another.
Some can not mix BD/SM with religion.
For another, BD/SM may BE their religion.
Many of the energies we find in BD/SM have analogies
in religious experiences, in meditational experiences, in Magickal
experiences,
in contemplation of things we find beautiful (including Nature),
in hypnosis, and in energetic healing.
Subspace and Dom(me) space seem to be aspects of
trance states to me.
There are lots of folks who claim various uses of
Magick. Some are manipulative, some are helping or healing, some
are simply
prayers.
I feel the asking of help or favor from any power is a form of
Magick, whether you are Wiccan, Pagan, Baptist, Hindu, Jewish,
Catholic, Islamic, Service of Mankind Church, or whatever. You
may or may not agree.
Being ethical and respectful of others is more important
than the label one uses.
A manipulator is often going to abuse others, no
matter what religious beliefs they may label themselves with.
Many western religions are very vested in controlling
their adherents by fear and by prohibitions. Often this also involves
discrimination
against non members of their group. Too often it also includes
gender or ethnic discrimination within the group, too.
One thing to consider is that the enemies of my
enemy may be possible friends.
The
religious groups seeking to "bust" BD/SM
people and groups and activities around this country all express
hatred and
fear for Wiccans a lot more than kinksters. They throw us in jail,
but they'd burn them at the stake if they could get away with it.
My thoughts express how I feel, your mileage may vary. vield@aol.com |

"Jargon"
by Vield@aol.com
2003
(All Rights Reserved)
The
very idea of "in-groups" as related to BD/SM can be
quite a fertile fund raising thing at $.25 per pun, because so VERY
much of "Our" scene is comprised of "in-groups" of
different sorts.
Most
professions, skilled trades, hunting groups, work teams, crafts,
combat teams, and gangs develop
dialect variations
of their parent
language frequently known as jargon. It appears to me that the
current jargon term in an academic linguistic group to mean "jargon" is "in-group".
Naturally
re-inventing terminology used academically provides publication
opportunities, as well
as items to use on "multiple guess exams".
Jargon
facilitates communication short-cuts between group members, can
be used to clarify a direct
response group members
are trained
to make (ie. "sic 'em Spot!" to your bunny or people related
attack dog), and can provide a secret way to communicate group thoughts
which outsiders won't understand (ie. "then She pulled the zipper
and i flew SOOOO good!"). Jargon
can also be used to differentiate group members from outsiders
(ie. "Cool!" to one generation may mean "Bad!" to
another, which in turn may mean "Keen!" to another, all
of which were intended to translate the phrase "I find this
to be good.").
BD/SM related jargon starts with the term BD/SM
itself, which some clever folks unknown to me figured out YEARS
ago could be used
as a short-hand for D/s, B/D, and S/M which are thought to be
three of the main focal points of folks enjoying our kinks. That
thought
also was developed into the three part BD/SM medallion, which
symbolizes some of the different scene aspects.
Jargon is also used to re-inforce preconcieved
status within a group or to put down folks with different needs/likes
from
oneself.
I
may claim that my kink is a proper "SSC" (safe, sane
and consensual, ie. "good") kink, while your kink may be
an "edgy" (less accepted, possibly dangerous, MAYBE even
CRAZY!!!) sort of thing. Naturally this is because I am "of
course" a solid citizen, while perhaps YOU might be a "flake" can
be implied.
My MANY years of academia (1968 through 1978 plus
many other bits) taught me to value personal thought rather than
the thoughts of others
when applying values to individual wants and needs.
I discovered that every person is very unique
IF allowed to be so, and that any system of labelling not applied
by the person in question
to their own forehead results in positive or negative prejudice
having influence.
I also reaffirmed my OWN belief that the English
language is a minefield of deceptions we can use to mislead our
selves or others as we chose.
Think of a string of single commonly used words, then think of
the myriad of perfectly true individual meanings each word can
have.
"
Love", "warm","lead", "sucks", "bad", "vanilla",and "dominant" are
only a very few examples. Vield@aol.com |
