Yes that, to a degree is also what I was intending to imply, by what I said. After all, if a friend brought round his new car, for instance, to show it off, would you immediately jump in it without asking and drive it at 100mph and mess with it treating it badly?  Of course you wouldn't, so why think you can do that with someone's slave/sub, surely exactly the same rules apply! But to re-itterate partly what I said, I see it as far more than just merely rude, it is disrespectful and insulting! Everyone on this site deserves respect, regardless of their perceived status and if you are talking about or to a slave, if she's not YOUR slave, then show her the respect you would show anyone you have just met in the street!

I have reposted my and other comments herte, so people can see what's been said and continue in here!

Quoting myself....Just to throw in my two penny worth, I agree entirely with what's said above but see it as far more than just merely rude, it is disrespectful and insulting! Everyone on this site deserves respet, regardless of their perceived status and if you are talking about a slave, if she's not YOUR slave, then show her the respect you would show anyone you have just met in the street!

...To me any slave or sub deserves at least equal, if not more respect, than any Dom/Master or so called and self styled either, What any true sub or slave is doing for or because of her Master, is deserving of the greatest respect, she is giving up everything for another, how many "Masters" are prepared to do that?

While I totally agree that calling someone's slave a derogatory term without permission or precedent is rude, I don't necessarily agree with PeJay's logic and reasoning.  I am respectful of other slaves out of respect for THEIR MASTERS - not the slaves themselves.  I have a lovely young piece of meat that I am currently training to be a suitable piece of property (the 5th slave I have trained - BTW).  We have rules and guidelines for our relationship that we have both agreed to (and I am sure almost everyone on this site has probably done this as well so I won't elaborate too much and bore you all) but keeping up my end of the deal is as much "respect" as she is shown.  The only respect she is shown from other masters is either out of respect for me or because I have requested it for her.

For example, let's suppose that I had the pleasure of meeting Ghstkitty26 in person.  Just because she is a willing submissive and I am a Dom does NOT, in my opinion, give me any rights to her body.  I wouldn't lay a hand on her (not even to shake hands in a greeting) without first being given permission from her owner.  In the same regard, nobody gets to touch my property/slave unless I give consent.  I don't think anyone would argue that point.

What I am trying to say is that the reason I wouldn't touch another's slave is the same reason I would not insult that same slave either - out of respect for the MASTER that owns her.  I personally think Mr. Mick is doing a wonderful job training Ghstkitty26 and I appreciate his willingness to show her off here on SF.  It is out of respect for him that I treat her with respect.

As for the comment, "...she is giving up everything for another, how many "Masters" are prepared to do that?" - well, perhaps that is something I should address later since this post is long enough already, but since I am the one who is assuming all the risk in my relationship with my slave and I am the one that is giving  up my time, energy, money, home, creativity, etc... to train my slaves to learn more about BDSM, themselves, and the future doms they will serve, I would have to say that I have given up more than most slaves I have known.  Especially, the slaves who immediately start the relationship by bitching about their "limits". LOL! If they truly want to be trained as a slave, they need to give up these feelings of entitlement and "respect" and understand that they will be "honored" when they have learned enough to act like a proper slave whose actions, abilities, and knowledge result in her Master being respected and honored for his training of her.

That is precisely the point I am making, she's not just giving up all things material but her whole self, as you put it, "they need to give up these feelings of entitlement and "respect" and understand that they will be "honored" when they have learned enough to act like a proper slave whose actions, abilities, and knowledge result in her Master being respected and honored for his training of her." is that not everything, rather than just time, energy,money, home, creativity, etc?

As a by the way, I have p[osted this in the forum too, as I feel this is a subject that will spark a great deal of discussion and feel it would be better there, rather than "clogging up" kitty's blog. I have also linked this in the forum for reference to the whole blog
