Maybe because so many subs are told/conditioned to think that the only wants or needs that matter are the wants and needs of their master's (i.e. "What do you want?" "Whatever would please you, sir."). I see it happening on a ton other threads on this forum (the shaved or not shaved thread is one I'm thinking of this moment- "do you prefer shaved?" "Well, I prefer whatever my master wants me to have"), so why not in real life, too? I dunno...just a thought. Anyway, hope you're well, and thanks again for posting all of your great pics!
