Although a difficult topic to properly describe, I have written before about how a true submissive has to be forced to endure things they truly do not like in order to feel properly content. Many things they truly do not like, do however begin as an arousing fantasy theme for them. (Immediately one can appreciate the difficulty writing about such a subject.) But thankfully, so often is it the case, that what was an arousing fantasy for them, turns out to be horrific in real life and so when forced into it, the overall life contentment comes, (as does awe of their cruel, pitiless Mistress).
Examples may include being dressed as a parody of a little girl and having to play with dollies in front of a couple of mocking friends of the Mistress. Or being put into inescapable chastity and only getting proper orgasms very rarely. Or being regularly secured into rigid sensory deprivation bondage for, say, three to six hours. Enduring the pitiless application of cruelty leaves them paradoxically content; AND in awe of their cruel Mistress.
There are however some activities that cross a psychological boundary and do not make the sub feel submissive or aroused or content. It sounds like a minefield but really, it is all quite easy to navigate.
This brings me to the point of this post, (phew!) – pitiless cruelty and its effect on true submissives. An interesting phenomenon is how subs can get aroused and feel submissive watching or reading about something that crosses their psychological boundary and would turn them off and stop them feeling submissive were it done to them. So one can deduce it is the pitiless cruelty of the Domme in the scenario that affects them and not the activity she is enforcing. So my point: pitiless cruelty is sooooooo important. Showing mercy is unhelpful when you are a Domme seeking to have your sub deeply in awe of you, addicted to you and feeling content overall.
And of course the second aspect of pitiless cruelty and not showing mercy is how arousing it is for the Domme. When that heartfelt begging and pleading starts and it is IGNORED. Then the Domme’s arousal gets serious and when the terrible thing is all over, for today, the sub is full of awe and contentment.
When I write above, that showing mercy is a bad thing, obviously there are times when a point is reached that mercy can be shown, but this probably should not happen until there has been a lot of that heartfelt pleading and begging. (I know there are a few very quiet subs who barely ever plead. Has anyone, Domme or sub, a solution to that? I would adore help on this.)
Sometimes there will be no heartfelt pleading because the sub knows that there is no point as the terrible thing will happen anyway, whether they plead or not. BUT, what a delicious joy when they still beg with all their hearts, despite knowing there is no point and the terrible thing will happen anyway, because the terrible thing is so terrible they cannot help themselves but to pointlessly beg. SO AROUSING!
Three examples with bitch-boy come to mind. The first is when I have used nettle leaves to ‘dust’ the shaft of his clitty. He is moaning and writhing but then I hold his clitty upright, foreskin back and show my intention to ‘dust’ the exposed head of his clitty with the nettles. So very, very painful around the head and especially around the very sensitive entrance to the urethra! Oh the pointless begging is a joy. He knows I am going to do it, he knows his begging is pointless but it is so terrible for him, he pleads anyway. Delicious.
The second example, when there are no nettles to hand, and he is already secured for a few hours of sensory deprivation bondage. Before the blindfold is fitted, as you followers know, I always apply some ‘lovely’ ointment to his clitty which I first make hard. I ALWAYS APPLY SOME! But if he sees me pick up the Linnex applicator (which seriously burns and for a much longer duration than any other ointment), the pointless begging starts, even though he knows I will not change my mind. Again, so delicious.
The final example, and perhaps the most enjoyable, pointless, heartfelt begging. I have him dressed in his most absolutely ridiculous parody of a little girl outfit. Pink frilled, beribboned dress coming down only to his hips. Shaved, limp genitalia on full display. Huge pink ribbon bow atop his head. Holding his dolly. Bells on pink, frilly ankle and wrist cuffs, tinkle when he moves. I am dressed in pencil skirt and blouse and court shoes. My normal clothes intensifying his ludicrous, shame outfitting. AND WE ARE WAITING. A Domme he has never met before, (although I will have met her), is about to arrive. We have perhaps a 20 minute wait. bitch-boy actually begins to physically tremble. I am smiling like a relaxed, cruel Cheshire cat and so aroused. He begins to plead to be allowed out of this awake nightmare in some way. I smile and shake my head and show him how relaxed and unmoved I am. Five minutes of silence go by, as I imagine he contemplates what is to come, and the pleading begins again. Another five minutes of silence; it begins yet again. DELICIOUS! Sometimes he sobs a little while he pleads. Sometimes he drops to his knees and kisses my shoes while he pleads. LIFE DOES NOT GET ANY BETTER, OR MORE AROUSING !
