My Afternoon as a Slave in Training

But if the slave is "sold" for a limited time, is that different than "renting" someone's time?

PS: I'm not Gorean, so I can't add to that part of this thread.

We are all entitled to enjoy and explore on SL as we wish. We also should educate ourselves about what things are. I for one would never give my opinion on scripting language for all to comment on when I have never studied it. We all have likes and dislikes, and BDSM or Gorean Roleplay is different things to different people. At least those that do explore things like Urban Roleplay, Bdsm, Gor, or having SL babies(which I find abosolutely crazy), are exploring and learning about themselves, and their deepest inner desires or dreams. You found out you didnt like it. See it for what it was, a learning experience. But please, dont critisize, those who are different, and who do the best they can to enjoy their own experiences in their own way.

A Slave Market is but one of many facets of BDSM, and Gor. What most enjoy in these roleplays is the shift in power. To go from what you think you control to giving up all desire to control anythiing. Please notice I said "giviing up desire" not giving up the ability" to decide for yourself. The Slave Market only magnifies this for a short period of time. It gives you but a taste of what these lifestyles may or may not be to this or that particular person. Uncertainty and the all the possible unknowns is what makes it thrilling to some. This is not what BDSM or Gorean lifestyles are about. In Bdsm, it is about the mental surrender to the benefit of all parties in a safe, sane, and secure environment. It also includes massive amounts of literature and styles. I will spare you all the book....lol

The best thing about life in a free world and an SL that allows you freedoms, is the ability to choose. If you choose not to do it because you dont like it, that is your right. To say that you dont inderstand it, is also fair. Please remember, just like the TV, you can change the channel. It doesnt make you any better or any worse than those who choose to keep the channel on. If you dont like it don't do it, like anything else you dont like. Yes, you are entitled to that as we all are.

I used to run the Slave Auction Group and had many pleasant experiences and made many friends. If I was in it for the money I would still be doing it, and I would have made a lot more of it when I was doing it. I enjoyed what I did and many benefitted from my efforts, both slave and buyers as well. The good outweighed the bad 100 to 1. Like I said before, it is all different things to different people.

Awwww

Much like my name which alliterates if you pronounce it properly. Not Cherry Cervix. Sigh.

Ok...I've read this thread,with some horror, some amusement, and lots of agitation. I think what's happening here is that Miss Rose still thinks BDSM / Master-slave == sex. It does not! That, in my mind, is like saying a marriage == sex (which it does not!). There is sex there, yes, but that may be analogous to the icing on the cake - if done right, there isn't, and doesn't need, to be much.

Yes, many noobs and assorted perverts are drawn only to the sex, but the 'true' BDSM'ers (for lack of a better word), see way beyond that, and want more.

I do not blame Master Bull, nor any of the others who run auction houses for being offended at being labelled "Pimp".. it is not accurate, nor is it justified.

Just my $0.02, but I hope it helps.

So....what you're saying is that the sex part of the slave auction is less than it appears to be at first? Maybe that's the issue here.

When you first enter the sim, it's hard to miss all those naked women in collars and cuffs, and sex seems to be what is on sale there. Perhaps it is the idea of "owning" the slave that is really the point of it all? In that case, perhaps pimp is the wrong concept here.

As a person seeing the sim for the first time, it looked to me like "sex for sale" but to the people who are accustomed to the lifestyle, sex is only a small part of what is for sale. This all is actually is starting to make sense. So the slave auction people are objecting to the use of the word "pimp" because to them, it is about the master-slave thing primarily. I think I get it!!

See? I'm really not clueless as a rock. Sometimes it's hard for me to see around the words to the meaning behind them if it feels like I'm being attacked.

Well I for one do not object to the word Pimp. Bottom line a slave auctioneer has many pimp qualities. The BIG difference is that the auctioneer has to give money to the slave. I know of no self respecting pimp who gives his whores money.

They really need to add some way for people to change their names ..

Maybe for a small fee.

Theres so many people who would benefit from it

(not that there is anything wrong with your name, Cherry-- I always figured it was pronounced a bit like Ceasarvik)

umm....guess I don't know much about pimps and whores. I thought pimps only got a cut of things.

Miss Rose,

From my point of view, I'd say you're on to the point. The nudity is more about the submission, about being open, and controlled. The Nadu, about having no secrets from your Master/Mistress, about being totally His or Hers.

Perhaps another way to look at it, would be to accuse Naturists/Nudists of being wild-eyed sex fiends...

I hope this helps.

I think that's a bit harsh Yosef.

OK I am gonna ask ... someone has to. Why are you called kajira then? lol

Sorry ... old RL problems can really get me ticked at times. But I know a preditor when I see one. "How do you know you don't like drugs until you try it?" It's the same thing. Been through this before and have the jail time to prove it but by god that dicklees bastard knows what "NO" means now.

The whole thing just scares me and feels wrong on many levels. I'll stick to vast tracts of land instead, thank you.

Pimpology 1101:

The Pimp gets all the money.

Honestly, Glister Sir, I was looking for Kira Narese from DS9.

/me takes Yosef aside away from the debate and places him in front of a nice tranquil sunset ...
