Well my fine Bondage friends. Here is a little poser for you.
If slavery is repugnant and abhorrent in the world today then why do so may of us want to be in bonds at the mercy of another, and to have them do what ever they like to us?

The pressures of the world today, what with all that red tape stupidity on top of all the other every day rules and regulations we follow, is anyone really free in that sense?

Rules on how we do our jobs; "Do it my way" "because its always done that way"

There is the huge weight on ones shoulders to follow convention. The 2.4 children; the mortgage on the house with the white picket fence; the car has to be bigger and faster than the Jones' next door; sending ones children to the most expensive school we can find because state education doesn't make the grade . . .

Now am I the only one that sometimes feel I am sometimes being carried along doing the stuff I hate because its the done thing. Because everyone else is doing it, so it is now convention? That to me is "Servitude". The only difference, the penalty comes from not following everyday conventions.

Yes to a degree, we are free. The definition I pulled out above quotes "Involuntary Subjection and Servitude"

Voluntary Bondage is your release. You feel the weight of the world is off your shoulders and nothing else matters.
Why is that? You know that in this case, your Bondage servitude, for however long, is sexual and that you want this to happen.
You have freely consented to be tied. To be used and abused because it's the sexual kick you need for the bigger orgasm or the more intense ejaculation.

Is the sub then not the master, and is the master not the slave?
