>In a literal sense it is supposed to be low status, but usually I get "Oh, that's so cool!" at kink events irl
There's this gap between how slaves are talked about and what actually existing as one is often seen as, yeah.

The biggest way to talk about it is actually how you saw affirming rather than degrading from that image. Its absolutely a positive thing for that slave, but a lot of the composition of that image is stuff that would be naturally degrading, the nudity among a fully clothed Master, all the body language of just crying into their chest, baring their emotions just as they are baring their body. It's degradation as the natural state of a slave, and thus images like that are just giving them this affection while still affirming their natural state. From the Master side I consider a slave to be a extremely valuable thing, something I would like to be bound to me forever, and thus the longer a slave is by my side and the more devoted she becomes the higher value she is. All this talk of dehumanization and calling slaves literal dirt does betray the fact that, for me at least, owning a slave is a mark of having made my life really whole for the first time, and as such that slave even if I feel safe putting her through the most cartoon levels of dehumanization is by far the most valued person I know.

I actually think identifying as a slave is a big step up from "sub" so getting "hey that's cool!" is way more of a commitment to kink as a full on lifestyle than just a sex life which actually does make you higher status.

We also may be working off limited language with the word "degradation' since I totally want my homies to feel safe enough to cry into my chest just not in the same way where I punish them for not being nude. Idk man, slaves are the most valued completely braindead bootlickers that I love dearly and want to spend the rest of my life grinding into the dirt.

More what I was going for was that a slave really wants to live for someone else, but finding someone who is actually responsible with that control over her life is just such a high stakes decision to make. And honestly even if I am confident in my own ability to control and lead another person for their own good I just would never once trust another human being in that way since I don't know them as well as I know myself. I can understand why doing that is so hard for slaves.

But when they do finally take that plunge it's more that the hardest part is over, atleast hopefully, these relationships tend to be tough since life as a slave is very hard, just a different type of hard that is suited to them. What you describe is often what I hear, that it is very difficult, just you can do a lot when you have Master on your mind and His whip at your back. You can build a lot of willpower which you will need since your life is a very extreme one.

I'm not surprised that real flesh and blood people who actually go outside do lurk this thread. I lurked on and off for years before I started posting a year and a bit ago. Same story, you can glaze over the really weird stuff since slavery lifestyle talk is just that impactful. I am very happy you were able to live the dream for a couple months. My own experiences interacting with submissive girlies who are as mentally ill as I am hasn't quite been what I expected.

Just adorable.

I'd try to get a good picture of handfeeding her that pizza slice actually. The photoshoot is fun but that is just such a cute and personal moment, capturing it would be a cherished image.

I don't think there is any slave on this planet that wouldn't just melt from getting headpats from who owns them. Might be universal.
