Nods.. yes, seems there can be other's who do think they are better than their piers.
This post brought something to my mind; what is the difference between an "Old guard" slave and the slave? Just more protocol ?
Thank you!

I have heard the term "meta-consent". Several years ago it came up on a few different e-mail lists. It isn't a new term nor does it have anything to do with anyone being more subbier, more of a slave or anything else of that nature..it was an explanation of how consent is viewed and used within some peoples power dynamics. It was a great explanation of how some consensual nonconsent dynamics work.

Ya know, adding "meta" to a word does not indicate superiority. It indicates hidden, changed, beyond, after, or related. For example, "metadata" is data about data. For example, my data here comes after that data over there.

A meta-slave would be a slave that comes after or was indicated by or described by another slave.

The word they are thinking of would be "mega-slave" which would indicate this slave is bigger than that
slave. Alternatively they could be referring to "uber slave" which would be this slave is so much better and
preferable to that slave over there.

Meta-slave. Meaning slavier than thou?
Meta-consent. Meaning "I said no but I really meant yes, it's up to you to figure it out"?
Ooh more terminology. I'm soooo confoozed. Why can't people just say stuff in plain English?
