My closest friends know. My brother actually knows. (We've got one of those, could tell each other literally anything, kind of relationships. This does not mean I discuss details of sexual activity with him, I do not. But...he knows that I am collared/owned.) My parents do not know but I am fairly certain that my mother suspects.

ANYONE who has ever been anywhere in public with my master and I, most likely "suspect" that "something" freaky-deaky is going on, even if they can't quite put their finger on it. There are undercurrents to just about everything, and this is why my close friends know, because it's just not one of those things that people can remain that ignorant about if they are close to us at all.

Now, obviously they don't know our exact bedroom activities, and they don't know the depth of the ownership issue, they just know that he is the "boss" of the relationship and I do what he says. I've had more than one feminazi try to "rescue" me from my "horrible" situation, which I find endlessly amusing. I like to toy with them. :P
