What is the role of Master/Mistress?

“Master” or “Mistress” are not just words. They are anchors, constant reminders of the power dynamic. It is the verbalization of your submission, a word that puts you in your place every time you utter it.

What is the significance of uttering “Master” or “Mistress”?

Saying it while you are being taken, whispering it just before he empties himself into you, is the soundtrack of your surrender. It is the word that frames the act, that gives it meaning, that confirms that even in the rawest intimacy, you know who the Master is.
