Ownership Tattoos

[Netzach]

Aside to Netzach: It could happen, of course, but it's very hard for me to imagine someone wanting to put something as personal and symbolic as an ownership tat on their property and then not giving a fuck what the design was or even where it went. To me that's like saying that you really want a vanity plate for your car and then, in the end, not caring what the heck it said and telling the Motor Vehicles division to pick something out at random. Maybe that's just me projecting myself into the dominant role, however, not always the most accurate way to figure these things out. :/

There's a shade of grey between not giving a fuck and picking something you know the person hates and telling them to do it anyway. I don't see how making it a more collaborative process or picking something you know the person likes makes it less of your decision. Not everything in my life has to be an overcoming of the will of the sub or a constant struggle, that would get extremely old extremely fast.

M has been completely opposed to any kind of body mod for the longest time. My satisfaction has been in planting the seeds of ideas, so that when I suggested a pear green titanium PA he suddenly liked the idea a lot. Wait a few months. Watch him whack off to it a few more times, now he's begging to get the PA and a guiche to attach it to. And a tattoo, a small version of the one I have on my back, right over his pubic bone! Who'd ever have thought, what with the opposition that initially met with!

I've always caught my flies with sugar and time. And it feels no less my decision and my influence, in fact, it makes me very smug.

Heh, reading this I felt like I was reading something D wrote. She has casually suggested she would like my nipples pierced a few times, something I used to be very against and not at all want. However, over times her comments and my growth as her property has me wanting to beg to be allowed to get them peirced now. She once suggested a tattoo that I kind of balked at a bit, but again, over time and through her comments, I've grown to really really want it.

I'm still exploring how I view labels and roles and what they all mean for me... I always appreciate it when a Lit veteran takes the time to write me such a thoughful post (well, it's for everyone, but kind of directed at me huh) and yours gives me something to ponder before bed. Thanks TB.

You read this just before you went to bed? Wow. I wrote it just after I got up. Just how many hours are you behind/ahead of the east coast, anyway?

Just take what I said with a grain of salt, I am terribly literal minded so ownership means ownership to me, and very little else. :/ Also I am not a lit veteran . I am relatively new and only know a couple of people really well because I knew them outside of lit.

Well, I work nights... get off at 4AM, come home and shower, eat, get ready for bed... Sometimes I don't get to go to sleep at all cause I have school at 8:30AM on mondays, wednesdays, and fridays... Sickening, ain't it?

But to answer your question, Hawaii is currently 6 hours behind you guys. (We don't do DST, so it varies through the year from 5 to 6 and back again.)

Yes, you might get sick from all that lack of sleep.

Six hours? Geesh, that is a big gap! Not as big as Tokyo, but still a tough one to coordinate schedules with. Why doesn't Hawaii do DST? Tropics location means you get loads of sun all year round?

Basically! Places near the equator don't compensate for DST. In Hawaii the sun rises around 6 AM all year (give or take half an hour) I think... and sets, oh, probably around 7-8PM.

I've never understood why you mainlanders fuss with your clocks. Silly people!!

(jk, I know the issues behind DST)

It's a farming thing. They don't do DST in Arizona either I believe.

They're going to get rid of it in a few years anyhow.

I hear the farmers don't really like it for various reasons, which I won't get into, because they're boring if you're not a farmer.

I've also heard theories that it was done in part to save money on electricity. More light later in the day means an hour less lamp usage towards the end of the night.

Whatever, I conclude that everyone who lives on the mainland is silly anyway.
