This is just me, and my personal thoughts on the matter, but I've always thought that the bestowing of a collar and the honor of wearing one was enhanced by the possibility that it could be removed and taken back by ones owner.  I don't mean as a symobl of blackmail nor something that would be done lightly, but a definite reality of something that was a possibility. 

In one sense, I could see how one could take comfort - feeling as if there was this unremoval symbol of their commitment to each other.  On the other hand, there is just something about a tangible, tactile object that makes the whole thing less idealistic and more REAL in my mind.  Then again, I can see how exciting it might be to watch someone bleed and be permanently marked with the symbol of their slavery. 

(sighs) I only have two hands, and I keep bouncing from one thought to the other with no real clarity so I'm just going to say wow, cool idea, not for me or mine (far as I can ever forsee) but still very cool.
