	SD! : Web boards : IE Theory : "Proper Attitude" 1 2 Proper Attitude (15) Sun 9 Mar 08, 2:19 PM dorothy US, 12 mths Y! Not sure if this is the right place for this. It's a mix of questions. Do other Masters use 'slave positions' to help their slave maintain their proper attitude? Or is there another reason for the 'slave positions'? What other methods do you use to encourage proper attitude? His property, His body, His mind. 9 Mar 08, 2:42 PM 541-969-139 3 yrs £ the lash from a slave i became a dom master come slave girls join me in my slave harem 9 Mar 08, 3:15 PM 483-608-929 US(OH), 18 mths Y! My MASTER does indeed use position training to teach and maintain proper attitude. There are positions that are more comfortable to maintain and those that really are hard to maintain. Attitude often determines what positions He commands, a bad attitude will mean a harder position but a good attitude will earn the privilege of an easier one. And, some positions can be very hot to maintain and are considered privileges and treats. Some really open up the body and allow 100% inspection to the fullest. . That is always good for MASTER and slave alike. With the harder positions, one learns to keep a good attitude, obedient and respectful. One knows the consequences of not doing that, besides the discomfort, one also knows their MASTER is not happy and that's no fun. It's better to shed all those things in the world that cause bad attitudes and to enjoy the peace and calm of being with one's MASTER. Some positions can almost be yoga like and very calming in themselves. For a slave that is often semi neurotic and semi anxious, it's good to have a source of calmness. Position training also is a good way to show a slave to others, to show the training they have had and have learned. It can be very impressive to others and that makes a MASTER look very good and causes pride both in the MASTER and the slave. A slave can most definitely please their MASTER by learning positions and executing them on command without flaw. Other attitude adjusters for this slave include silence restriction, eye restriction, and being in a room by oneself. MASTER knows these drive this slave crazy and are not the most favorite things for her to do. That's why they are such punishment. Ultimately we know deeply that the other side of every fear is a freedom.

Typically, pet and I will cuddle in bed for a few minutes after I remove her restraints. She started getting to where she expected it, so this morning, I removed her restraints and without any explaination, got up and started the day. I ordered her to do it as well. She fussed a little bit, but soon realized that cuddling was not happening and accepted that it was at my option and not something that she could count on. Since she's still relatively new in her slave role, I allow her a little bit of lattitude with regard to her reactance. Over time, however, that window is getting shorter.

Each position has its purpose though, I would not use a position normally reserved for serving or my viewing pleasure for punishment/correction. She needs to have that distinction, much as you would toys. You have to keep that clear line of what is pleasure vs. what is for correction.

As far as maintaining a proper attitude, that can be reinforced a number of ways, and certain difficult or uncomfortable positions is one of those ways. But first a girl has to understand what a proper attitude is in the eyes of her Master, not her eyes (I have encountered that...lol), but his eyes. This takes time and patience, as its part of behavior and ingrained. He has to understand where the aspects he wishes to change come from, and show her why they displease him, and give her the proper motivation to change them.

It's impossible for me, for instance, to keep feeling mutinous or stroppy if I'm required to adopt a kneeling attitude with my eyes down. I feel myself melt into a place of submissive acceptance.

As with any human being, there are times when i, although untentionally, may take a few more liberties than i should, and in those cases GODDESS will pull me aside and give me a lecture. And for me that is all i need because the sting of Her tongue is far more effective than the sting of Her crop. 178-529-454 10 Mar 08, 3:48 AM Yarakot 3 yrs dorothy wrote: Do other Masters use 'slave positions' to help their slave maintain their proper attitude? Or is there another reason for the 'slave positions'? What other methods do you use to encourage proper attitude? Yes, my owner has ritualized a number of positions and they do help me stay centered on my status. As to other reasons for slave positions, I am almost certain that my owner has two or three other reasons for what he requires of me (because he does for everything) but I don't know what those reasons would be. As to other methods, are you asking about methods that owners use on slaves to maintain proper attitudes or methods slaves use on themselves to ensure proper attitudes?

Come to the TSR Meet & Greet at MsC in DC (August, 2008). 10 Mar 08, 4:26 AM Catfooted US, 2 yrs Y! I do like certain postures and positions for service and attendance. Some are ongoing for basic movement out and about, others for specific purposes. Some of it is to assist in tuning the mind to desired pathways. Some of it just because I like it that way. I enjoy a certain amount of ceremony and ritual in my life. At any time I will correct slouching, sloppy or shuffling steps or other bad posture habits both because I like to see grace and a good, erect posture and because it's better for the health of the body in the long run. You do need to work with the individual person and what they are actually capable of and use realistic goals in this, as in any training.

What other methods do you use to encourage proper attitude? on the floor is considered pretty good. a step behind is really good too, and on whatever side they like. being as open and exposed, as frequently as socially acceptable is pretty good. lower person, lower postures. pretty simple once you think about it. conditioning practice, conditioning practice, conditioning practive, you really can't do enough of it. even if you are older and not in as good a physical shape. the best 'self' conditioner is wearing wrist and ankle cuffs on a 24/7 basis for a few weeks. better than a bondage belt or a collar. yours in servitude, 357-137-289 slave@webbittown.net Next page
