subs defending their masters

[leah06]

Well, I'll jump in and say that I don't love the word cute in this context. In fact, I don't really love the word cute at all, applied to a human over the age of say, eighteen months. Part of being in any relationship, even D/s, is accepting love graciously - and, accepting your own needs within the relationship. If your sub protects and defends you, why belittle that by calling it cute?

After you hear from a few more subs parsing every word in your post, you'll wish you hadn't brought this up at all. Sorry!

forgive me if i don't quite make sense (half a glass of wine - i don't handle alcohol well!) but...

is calling her reaction cute belittling it, or could it be seen as an extension of objectification or humiliation or some such... or even paternalistic...? and therefore a natural extension of a D/s relationship in a small way?

(i mean from the D perspective... from the s perspective, the maternal/defensive does seem to be the driving motive).

i'll go finish my wine before i start designing a solution for world peace...

i have to agree with rachel, using 'cute' to describe a sub who is defending her Dom is demeaning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i will defend my Master to the death if the need arises, although he is quite capable of looking after himself.

im sure any sub would do the same, be it for their Dom or Domme and most of them would appreciate their support
