I am really not
sure what the motivation behind concealing the truth and
realities of consensual slavery is, as can be seen so often in
other groups professed to APE/TPE lifestyle, or in the
mainstream BDSM community in general. Maybe some might think one
can catch more flies with honey.
Masters however, need slaves who enter an APE/TPE with
awareness, not flies.
I'm afraid much more damage is done to the
newcomers and aspiring slaves, by romanticizing, beautification
and modification of the reality of the APE/TPE lifestyle.
This is not a membership drive and we are
not recruiters. Well, at least I'm not.
I truly believe it is imperative that
aspiring slaves are confronted with the truth, and nothing but
the truth. An aspiring slave must know and understand the
realities of APE/TPE slavery, its dynamics, structures and what
is expected of them. And that without romanticizing and
beautification and preferable before they accept a Masters
collar and enter into a APE/TPE.
A slave has no rights nor does she have
the luxury of saying no to Master. She has no limits of her own
and will accept and adopt her Masters boundaries. A slave might
be broken, and if necessary completely, humiliated, degraded and
mold and rebuilt, to her Masters wants, needs and
specifications, and yes, a Master will do as he sees fit. A
slave has no more control, her time and her body is no longer
hers. She lives and exists only to serve and please her Master.
A slave will serve, obey and submit, or face punishment, some
more then others. A slave might be beaten, caged or gagged and
many other things she never dreamed of. Once she consented and
accepted her Masters collar, she is no longer free. She is her
Masters slave and property.
Slavery is not all about the slave. It is
in fact, all about the Master. APE/TPE is not Vanilla Kink, it
is not Dom/sub BDSM role play. APE/TPE is consensual slavery.
Absolute and unconditional.
I truly believe if aspiring slaves are
properly educated, informed and prepared, confronted with the
realities beforehand, without holding anything back, there would
be a lot fewer “slaves” running and crying "abuse".
And that is exactly why I am dedicated to
let the newcomers and aspiring slaves know up front what the
realities of APE/TPE really are. And that is also why I do not
sit idly by, when “Vanilla Thinking”, misconceptions or
misleading distortions and statements creep up.
Modern day consensual slavery is quite
possible both, “real” consensual slavery, and an old-fashioned
or ancient form of marriage, as in ancient times the dynamics of
marriage were more then similar to our modern day consensual
slavery.
As marriage, consensual slavery is vowed
and committed by word of honor. Even that marriage has always
been vowed before “God” does not change the fact, that it rest
entirely on the consenting parties, honor, integrity, respect
and most of all their sense of loyalty.
What has however changed is the laws of
mostly the western society, which turned “vanilla” in regards of
marriage.
In ancient times, marriage vows were
enforceable by the husband (Master) in accordance with the laws
of the respective society. Nowadays, divorce or separation is
enforceable by the wife (slave) in accordance of our now
“vanilla” society.
However, the meaning of commitment through
ones word of honor is unchanged.
This is the reason that a slave cannot
release herself from her Masters collar without her Masters
explicit consent and approval. When a slave consented to be her
Masters slave, she gave up that right, and must now be held by
her word (vows) of honor.
Even today there remain many societies in
which divorce is not legally possible, and even in some
societies where divorce is legally possible, the wife will
remain a “chained woman”, unless released by her husband.
Although the commitment to consensual
slavery cannot be enforced by the laws of our society, the
commitment and vows, are or should be just as much binding, by
word of honor.
Consent with awareness saves all of us
much time, effort and hurt feelings. APE/TPE simply is not for
everyone, and only an informed slave can consent with awareness.
