24/7 Slavery

24/7 Slavery

This post is written by Rick’s Fucktoy. It was first posted on Sensual Service, which I closed when I opened Submissive Guide. 24/7. All day, every day. Is it possible to live any lifestyle to that degree? More to the point, is it possible to live *this* lifestyle that I’ve chosen for myself on a 24/7 [...]

A Day in the Life: bonimiss

This is a post by bonimiss for the Day in the Life Series. I saw luna’s request for a day in the life and was immediately interested but then I hesitated. I fear I suffer from “Not Doing It Right” syndrome but then I thought if I am doing it the way Sir specifies, I [...]

A Day in the Life: Tlbsab

This is a guest post for the Day in a Life Series. Thank you Tlbsab! First let me say that this article is in no way meant to offend anyone and is meant for information only. Religion is the basis of our relationship and is the reason that our lifestyle works for our family. I [...]

A Day in the Life: DarlingDoll

This is part of the A Day in the Life Series. Thanks DarlingDoll! I am a brat. I am a mouthy loud-mouthed impatient bent kinky little brat who has gone through phase after phase to amuse myself with one constant. My Daddy. Together he and I have shared tattoos, shaved heads, pink Mohawk’s, and blue [...]

A Day in the Life: Autumn Raine Skye

This is a guest post by Autumn Raine Skye for the Day in the Life Series. I’m a submissive, and I also consider myself a slave. My Master, who is also my husband, had not heard of any aspect of BDSM, until I brought it up to him. So we are fairly new to all [...]

A Day in the Life: Pam

A Day in the Life: Pam

This is a guest post by Pam for the Day in the Life Series. As a new submissive, I am constantly seeking out new information. Scouring the internet has almost become an addiction. With each new article I read I can find others to dispute it. I have come to realize the journey for me [...]

A Day in the Life: fuzzyP

A Day in the Life: fuzzyP

This is a guest post by fuzzyP for the Day in the Life Series. I was asked by luna to write about one of my typical days in service to my Dominant. While that task is straight-forward enough, the challenge lies in making one of my typical days entertaining and illuminating for you, the reader. [...]

Deceptive Submissive – The Flip Side of the Predator Dominant

Deceptive Submissive – The Flip Side of the Predator Dominant

This is a guest post by Camryn Darkstone. Virtual worlds have opened a door to BDSM for many people, allowing them to explore their curiosity about it in a fantasy environment. People who would never do so in “real” life can try on handcuffs, be chained and bound, and even submit to a Dominant, all [...]

Assent Matters

This is a guest post by SherynB. Please take the time to read the whole thing. It’s an important issue that needs to be addressed. Okay, there’s a 600lb gorilla in the room, and I’m done pretending it’s not there. What we do isn’t pretty or politically correct, and frankly, it’s dangerous if we can’t get (and [...]

What is Kajira?

What is Kajira?

This is a guest post by Dara. What is Kajira? If you had asked me that 4 months ago I would have had no clue. Slave girl? Now there’s a term I recognized, and if you had made the suggestion that I would one day in the very near future submit myself to becoming someone’s [...]

Embarrassment vs. Humiliation – One Opinion

Embarrassment vs. Humiliation – One Opinion

This has always been a fascinating subject for me. Humiliation, for many, is a large – perhaps even important – part of their D/s dynamic. For these people, there can be a very strong desire to be humiliated. But what is humiliation? We’ve all experienced embarrassment from time to time, and have a fairly good [...]

Have a Community Spirit You Can Be Proud Of

Have a Community Spirit You Can Be Proud Of

This is a guest post by Laney. Well, you did it. You finally took the steps necessary-you found a munch, made friends, joined a dungeon and it happened. You fell in love. Not with a certain someone, but with your community. It happens to a lot of us lifestylers. We immerse ourselves in our dungeon, [...]

Using Your Fear for Better Submissive Growth

Using Your Fear for Better Submissive Growth

This guest post is a honeymoon gift from mi_vida. Lets face it, we all have fears. I’ll be the very first person to admit it! In fact I’ll do you one better and let you know I, literally, have a crap ton of fears. Well the official ruling is still in debate within the scientific [...]

What I’ve Learned From My Young Dominant

What I’ve Learned From My Young Dominant

This guest post is a honeymoon gift from Agog. The one thing I have learned since I started nosing around in BDSM is that I don’t know myself nearly as well as I thought I did. I thought it was all about sex, that what I felt was missing was something physical, but as I [...]

36 Ten Minute Meals For When Time Is Short

This guest post is a honeymoon gift from MGbunny. Time is not always our friend more so if you work outside of your Tops home and have chores to do upon returning home from work, needing to make time to cook dinner as well.  It then becomes the question of how to make real food, [...]

The Return of a Collar

The Return of a Collar

This is the second guest post by Laney. If you’d like to read her first about a submissive’s toy bag, you can do so here. Ever since I entered “the lifestyle,” I have strived to attend as many educational demos as possible. My local dungeon, The Red Chair, offers a monthly educational demo on a [...]

Is Male Submission a Form of Weakness?

Is Male Submission a Form of Weakness?

This is a guest post by fuzzyP. I’ve put this question off long enough. It’s one of those questions that can cause a person to take a long, uncomfortable look at oneself, and I don’t know too many people who like doing that. My answer may not be quite what you expect. Men are strong, [...]

Learning About Pain

Learning About Pain

This is a guest post from Calliope. I’ve always thought of myself as a complete wuss when it comes to pain. My typical response to anything that hurts has always been of the “hide in my room and cry until it goes away” variety. Of course, “looking pitiful until someone takes mercy on me” has also [...]

My Toys Or Yours?

My Toys Or Yours?

This is a guest post by Laney who contacted me when I called for new contributors. This is her first post. In August of 2008 I entered the world of BDSM and, within a few months, found a steady play partner. Visiting his home was like visiting the most amazing toy store a lifestyler could [...]
