A few months back (in October?) I blogged about “branding” submissives - where I write ownership messages on their bums (butts for you Americans). In quite a few cases I have to do some shaving first. Some submissives have such hairy bums that it can be hard to see what I am writing? And then I write messages in sharpie on their butts – “Ms Emilie’s Bitch” or “Ms Emilie’s Slut” or “Ms Emilie’s Sissy”.

I sometimes get asked by people whether I regard them as slaves or submissives. As it turns out that is a much debated question in the BDSM community. For example on Fetlife (which is a great source for kink discussions in general) there are literally dozens of groups where this is discussed / written about.
