DarkSteven -> Reverse gold digging (12/4/2010 8:17:50 AM)

irsmeinLV posted a thread here: http://www.collarchat.com/m_3489275/tm.htm about her Dom, who told her to do something to please him and gave her the money to do so.

I was wondering how you folks would think of the converse happening.  Say that a woman spends a fair amount of time/money on her appearance.  Would you feel okay with a Dom directing her to spend less time/money there, and direct the time and money elsewhere?

In the extreme situation, he would tell her to quit spending money on her makeup and let him have control over it.

Is he any good at buying and applying cosmetics? Because being make up badly in public is humiliating.

To me, if the Man is a Master, his expectations and standards are what matter.  He is responsible for what he owns, if he feels his money would be better spent elsewhere, that is his perogative.  However, he would also have to deal with why she spends the money on what she does -- it could be an insecurity she harbors that she needs this stuff rather than enjoys same. So his taking it away arbitrarily may cause her insecurities to rise and then he would have to deal with them.

I've always enjoyed all the maintenance stuff women do, though i don't need it, i do want it.  So his taking it away may frustrate me and he would have to deal with that, he would be taking away an luxury more than a need from me.  For other women that may not be so.

The men i find myself involved with however, have expectations and standards which they are willing to expend money on for the woman to reach and maintain. I do enjoy men who allow me my luxuries in life if i am going to be tolling in slavery to them.  :-)

if that is what Master wanted then that's what I would do. It's his choice.

Thankfully Master likes that I take care of myself but it doesn't really cost me all that much and I have the money to do so. Now if I was doing it and not getting my bills paid then he might have something to say about it but thankfully that's not the case.

Yes, I am the reverse of a golddigger.

I have spewn goldschlager on several occasions.

Hmmmm.....or am I not tracking this well.

My guy is entitled to ask me for whatever he wants and I'd do it.
I am very confident in my appearance no matter what clothing/jewelry/makeup happens to be on me at any given time so it's not like I'd find it a big deal to go without, and if it was his preference it would make me feel all gushy to be able to do what he wanted. I might ask sometimes for him to allow me something and if he didn't I might feel wistful over not being able to paint my toenails anymore because I adore having painted toenails, but overall...I'm not going to sweat it.

I like pleasing my man more than pleasing myself, I'd be fine with it.




TSsubmissive -> RE: Reverse gold digging (12/4/2010 11:16:23 AM)

No way, that's not what I want and we wouldn't be a good match for a couple.




auditguy -> RE: Reverse gold digging (12/4/2010 11:22:26 AM)

Hey the Dom could be into the Trash style (which on the right girl looks really hot), although I think the Olsen twins make a fortune off of that.

With the caveat that the Dom/me was a mature, reasonably wise, reasonably unselfish person, i doubt it would be a problem. The sticky wicket would be if there were a conflict between orders, a Catch 22, or if the order was harmful to the sub's future or the overall relationship's future--it would be necessary that it had a logical reason and had a longer term benefit.   

Some examples:
*I don't want you to (A) spend money on  your outward appearance but I want you to (B) look like a magazine cover-girl at all times. You will be punished/ I will be dissatisfied if you don't do both A and B.

*I want you to pay for <insert activity> right now and I don't care if your using your 401k allotment/nest egg/taking out a high interest loan/canceling your insurance/not able to pay for other necessary bills or what-have-you but I want you to stay within your budget/ never have cash flow problems.

Am i making sense? 

If one is going to really get into mucking around with another person's finances, be knowledgeable about those finances, consider repercussions and be consistent in your comands.  Foolhardiness and unthoughtful decisions in this matter will really trip up your enjoyment of your sub later on.

edited to delete an errant parenthesis.




MissAsylum -> RE: Reverse gold digging (12/4/2010 1:35:41 PM)

i agree with monkey. if the Dom/Domme doesn't want the slave to spend so much money on themselves, i think it would be wise to expect a recoil. if you met this person and they were well taken care of physically and had all of their ducks in a row in terms of paying bills and whatnot, why would you make them allocate the funds elsewhere? there is a good chance they won't look/act the same when that's taken away. and I also agree witb angel, if you are going to be in relationship with this person for the long term, the least they can do is allow you to look nice.




DesFIP -> RE: Reverse gold digging (12/4/2010 4:15:42 PM)

Plus telling them they aren't allowed to get a decent hair cut and them looking less than professional in dress and appearance will cause them to be overlooked for promotions. So the dominant has to be trustworthy to know when they are helping or harming, and has to have enough knowledge to know if their judgments in this area are trustworthy. The Man cannot be trusted to pick coordinating colors, and he knows it. If he mistakenly believed he was a natural stylist, that's a problem.

Pie in the sky theory. The former scenario is FAR more prevalant.

Would I be ok a dominant telling another woman to let him take over her make-up, etc? Yeah... sure. Whatever makes them happy. If it's not making them happy then - like anything - they need to sort it out.

Now... for me... I dunno how I would feel about it. My appearance and tending to my appearance is so soothing to me. I really don't think I would be fulfilled in a relationship where the dominant wanted to take control of my make-up, etc.

Now, that said... if we can't afford something, we can't afford it. And my primping is one of the first things to go.

Hard limit.

We don't do humiliation so that hadn't occurred to me. But seriously, if the dominant refuses to let her be dressed well, then it is incumbent on him not to go out and drool at all the hot young things who are dressed in flattering clothing with flattering hair cuts/color and artfully made up to improve their appearance. Because that's just hurtful.

And truthfully, I could look a lot better if I got on What Not to Wear and got the credit card with 5,000 and a top hair stylist doing my hair and a professional doing my makeup. But that's money I can't justify spending at this time.
