IYHO?

You make some interesting distinctions between three types of training, which in the main i think are probably fairly accurate. The only note i would add would be that when a great, great many 'subs' say 'I want to be trained'...what they actually mean is 'I want to learn what it would mean to be trained' 'I want to learn more about BDSM'..or even 'I want a bit of subbie fun, and I'm trying to say the right words'....all fine, of course, but all potentially misleading. The only way to route out what they want, IMO, is in response to 'I want to be trained', is to ask 'Why?'. i also know for a fact that this can also be used as a tool to re-focus on submission. Works for me, anyway.

Oh, also, i'm going to be potentially controversial and say that i actually think the only training worth anything is the third one (and the first two are encompassed by that one)...i strongly believe that Ds only exists in a true and pure form between any two given people, not universally. A view that would make me very unpopular with most classicists in the BDSM world, i'm sure.

Interesting thread, Eraser.
