BeingChewsie -> RE: Is it right to want to be property (6/16/2007 8:15:32 AM)

Hi Shantra and Mistoferin, I'm going to reply to both of you because I admit I still don't understand the mechanism of how this new guy became *owner*. quote:
ORIGINAL: Shantra kittinsol.. yaaaa... as if! BeingChewsie, I like that you picked up on the point of change of ownership. Quite recently Master was telling me how he was taught, what a slave is and means, that they are property, that they do what they are told, that they are pleasing and if they are not you sell them.... ummm... I did not say anything.. but I do believe my eyes looking into his conveyed something along the lines of...'do you realise just how ludicrous what you just said was?' After a long moment he said...'well.. I mean... of course.. ya know...you wouldn't actually sell her'. I believe strongly in keeping a sense of reality. Whatever you may feel in your heart or in your head you are not and cannot be legally property. About the closest to it that you can get is my Master having a marriage certificate because that gives him rights that he would not have without it. But in reality you are not. By all means enter into it with everything you have, but one day you are going to get sick.. or old... or you have children and grandchildren to consider.. these are realities. I wasn't discussing the legalities at all. I don't think it has any bearing at all on how humans or other animals become *owned* which is why I questioned the mechanism of how it occurs. I know it can and does occur, that is reality. I'm in agreement. I think it is far more complex than owned by Master A one day then owned by Master B the next, if it isn't then the girl was never *owned* to begin with. I do believe that things can be *owned* absent state supported ownership. Ownership can occur absent laws to support it. The guy with the bengal tiger in his backyard can't legally *own* the tiger, but in the tiger's mind he is owner(where it probably matters most), and most people wouldn't argue that he owned the tiger. Slave Jane may have been transferred to Master B's home but I fail to see how that simple change of address changed in her beliefs who her owner is. My owner could trade me for the neighbors Aston Martin, he could send me to live at the neighbor's house, the neighbor isn't my *owner* in any way that would be meaningful. In fact if the new guy didn't somehow keep me chained up, I'd leave. If I stayed it would be out of obedience to my former owner who still *owned* me in that way that matters...far too much of a cluster fuck for me. I prefer enslavement by a man not a concept.
