TSR : O&P Wiki : Slave: history

This article is part of the O&P Wiki hosted by The Slave Register

Slave

A person who is owned: that is, someone in a relationship with an owner who has ultimate authority over them, and from which the slave cannot remove themselves.

One of the key differences between the usage of the word "slave" in O&P or IE, and in the BDSM Play Scene is the concept of slaves being literal slaves: this is just the everyday definition of "slave" and it doesn't include the roleplay slaves you sometimes meet elsewhere in BDSM.

For example, the second edition of the Oxford English Dictionary gives: "One who is the property of, and entirely subject to another person, whether by capture, purchase or birth; a servant completely divested of freedom and personal rights."

Contrast this definition with ongoing voluntary submission.
