slave's etiquette

Introduction to slave Etiquette 

I have to start by stating that no male slave can hope to write authoritatively on slave etiquette; at best he can try to distil some of what he has learned from his Female superiors. Their views, too, may differ; each Lady has Her own beliefs and preferences. Consequently, this essay does not presume to set out rules of slave etiquette which are right for all slaves and all Mistresses everywhere and at all times. Rather it focuses on the sort of behavior expected of male slaves interacting with the Superior Ladies such as “Mistress Torrie” and “Goddess Dyme” (my owners).

What is Slave Etiquette?

“Etiquette”, in relation to any group in society, is the conventional but usually unwritten code of practice for that group, or to put it another way, the rules governing what constitutes correct or acceptable behavior for members of that group. “Slave Etiquette”, in the context of this essay, is the code of set of rules governing what constitutes correct or acceptable behavior for the slaves in the Temple.

Slave Grammar

As the main medium of communication is the written word, it is essential that the slave follows the accepted grammatical conventions when writing for a readership that may include Dominas.

Firstly, all words referring to Females should begin with a capital letter, whereas no words referring to males should begin with one. This includes pronouns and the use of the word “I/i”. Thus, where the writer is male and he is writing to a Lady, for example, it is not permissible to write: “I am writing in response to your last e-mail”. The correct form would be “i am writing in response to Your last e-mail”.

Where a group pronoun is used and it refers to males and Females, the usual practice is to write both versions separated by an oblique stroke, thus: “We/we”; “They/they. The version with the capital letter must naturally go first.

In fact, the rule “Ladies first” applies to grammar generally. Thus: “Mistress A and myself went to Burbank”, not “Me and Mistress A went to Burbank”.

In keeping with the rules that the slave should be modest and not draw attention to himself unnecessarily, some Ladies prefer the slave to dispense completely with the use of the word “i”; so instead of writing “i have finished my writing assignment”, the slave should write “Your slave has finished his writing assignment”.

As with other rules of slave etiquette, if a Lady prefers the slave not to do any of the above, he should respect Her wishes.

One additional point: the slave’s written communications should otherwise follow all the usual rules of grammar. It should not contain any grammatical or spelling mistakes, especially mistakes in the spelling of the Domina’s name. Sloppy English is sloppy service and the Ladies are entitled to expect only the best service from their slaves.

Entering and exiting

Whenever entering or leaving a room, slaves should generally beg permission to enter or depart of any and every Lady in the room. This should be done to each Lady individually unless permission has been given for you to do it collectively. The only exception to this is if the slave is aware that the Lady in question does not wish them to do this.

Until permission has been given, the slave must wait where they are and should not attempt to leave or participate in the discussion without permission.

The logic of begging to enter is that it is a privilege to be in the presence of a Domina and one which is totally at Her discretion to grant or withhold; therefore the slave must beg for that privilege to be granted.

Similarly, the slave must ask permission to leave as a sign of respect to the Domina. To merely up and leave without a word is tantamount to turning one’s back on Her, which is very rude, especially when She has granted the slave the privilege of being in Her presence. Also, the Lady’s desires are paramount and She might not desire him to leave at that point.

Addressing a Domina

When addressing a Domina, slaves should make sure that they include Her name in the sentence. So, not: “Please may I be excused?” or even, “Please may I be excused, Mistress?”, but “Please may i be excused, Divine Mistress Torrie?”  or “Please may I enter Goddess Dyme?”

Slaves must also ensure that they show each Domina the proper respect by getting Her right. This means that if the Lady likes to be called Goddess  A, then you address Her as Goddess  A, not Mistress or Mistress A. If you are not sure how the Lady likes to be addressed, ask Her.  For example, “Excuse me, Madame, but how do You prefer to be addressed?” You should also apologize for not knowing. The good slave finds out this sort of thing beforehand so that he does not have to bother the Lady with questions.

Asking Stupid Questions

The Ladies are very perceptive; they know that men are dumb and they do not need a particular male to prove it by continually asking dumb questions. Think before you talk, and do so with the organ in your head, not the one between your legs. Otherwise you will just irritate the Ladies and then you’ll be sorry.

Saying Thank You

Finally, after you have had a talk with a Domina, thank Her for Her time. It’s the least that You can do. Her time is precious and yet She has chosen to spend it brightening up your miserable existence, you pathetic little worm! Isn’t She wonderful?

Conclusion

Serving the Ladies is a privilege, not a right. If you do not wish to lose that privilege, then you must learn how to behave properly in Their presence. That means learning the general rules of slave etiquette; but it is not just a matter of learning one set of rules. Every Lady is different and has different desires and expectations; it is our duty as slaves to get to know them all so that we behave toward every Lady in a way which is pleasing to Her. So really the first rule of slave etiquette should be:

“Strive to know the Lady’s requirements that you may serve Her as She wishes to be served”.
