The Slaves Paradox:
The more control a slave gives up, the more power they in turn gain.
For instance, if a slave allows themselves to be tied up in a very awkward position, they hold the power over the Dom/me in the forms of consent and the all-powerful safeword. If, for some reason, things were to turn south, the burden of proof would be on the Dom/me to prove the consent. However, without this consent or any other thread of trust, the Dom/me would never put the slave in that position, therefore giving the slave the control over the situation but taking the slaves power.
