My deeply personal definition of a slave in its most efficiently stated form. Someone who gives me her heart so completely her mind and body are willing to do anything within reason for the growth of the relationship. I will never take advantage of this in the slightest but I will reflect all of it back to her each and every moment we’re together. It’s really not the definition of a slave at all but the definition of what both partners bring to a relationship in a perfect world. |

You're very welcome c. I thought about it more after posting it and it is exactly the way O was in Pauline Reage's The Story Of O, the only difference being that O loved someone who didn't return her love which led to her slowly destroying herself. This self destructive force (from having so much love inside for someone without them receiprocating) was described by Pauline Reage in her later interviews in Confessions of O. Being a slave means many different things to different people so I think lots of communication is necessary to fully define it when developing that type of relationship with someone. Will it be like O? She was reduced to a prostitute by the end of the second O novel, Return to the Chateau. Not too many women have this in mind when they show in interest in being a slave. Perhaps it is an exclusive relationship between both with control over decisions being central along with the sexual aspect. It's really different for everyone.

I think O is incredibly warm hearted. Throughout her time and ordeals at Roissy, she continually hopes Rene will come back and cherish her or give her some sign of love which eventually transfers to hoping Sir Stephen will do the same. The men are cold hearted as are the women who use her. Reage surely was influenced by her fellow French Existentialists in the concept of futility to finding love in our modern world leading her to pursue her own self destruction from the pain of having so much love to give without a mirror image to reflect any of it back.

Thank you so much rose. I think you're a very warm person as well. I believe she deliberately created a detached feel in the story to convey the sense it wasn't written by a woman. She wrote it on a dare by her lover/publisher. He said a woman could never write an erotic novel and she set out to prove him wrong.
