Being a Master in a D/s BDSM relationship comes with its share of responsibilities and expectations. When you claim another and place your collar on them you are signifying your commitment towards guiding another soul through life. This commitment does not begin and end with what society’s idea of the lifestyle is or represents. In fact being a Master means different things to different Doms. For me it means the following. It means I’ve committed myself to being a protector and not just of what some perceive as property.

 For me it means protecting someone from not only the day to day agitations but from themselves as well. To protect another means to teach to guide and yes, if necessary, to discipline. But it also involves trust. My slave, by choosing me as her Master, is showing not only devotion and love, but complete and total trust. This trust is placed in my hands in the form of her entire being. She trusts that I will be there during any strife that comes her way and to share in every joy as well.

It means I have vowed to guide her in the ways that I expect her to be through allowing her to be totally true to her nature. Her expectations of me consist of insuring that wrong choices are not made and conflicting emotions that would stagnate the thought process are separated and labelled for what they are, distractions. It is that muddled mind that I’m committed to clear. It means that I will treat her as I would a rose, in that I will administer the proper care and encourage her to blossom into the beautiful garden that is desired. It means I have accepted the responsibility in making sure that she is healthy and happy by giving her the dominance she desires. It means I will weed out all the bad habits that in the past have led to negative and irretrievable consequences. From the moment a decision to enter this is made, I am committed to shaping her into the woman she desires to be. It means control. Control of not only her but of the shared destiny we both crave. To take control of another being brings strength to me in the form of an example. It causes me to re-evaluate my own life and my own choices and to transfer those to her so that she may benefit from them. It means I must now lead by example. And never falter in any endeavour that is undertaken. To gain control like this brings power to me. The kind of power needed to be strong in my convictions and grants me the freedom to truly be who I am and through all of this it is she who has given me that gift.
