Reactance

(10) Brehm summarised his Theory of Psychological Reactance by saying "In general, the theory holds that a threat to or loss of a freedom motivates the individual to restore that freedom. ... The theory stipulates what constitutes a freedom, how freedoms can be threatened or eliminated, and how the ensuing motivational state (psychological reactance) will manifest itself."

The theory also associates the state of reactance with emotional stress, anxiety, resistance and struggle for the individual, and is a powerful model for understanding the behaviour of slaves as their freedoms are progressively removed.

Responsibility

(10) Responsibility for maintaining property is one of the ten keywords in the O&P manifesto, and part of O&P's ethical system for dominants and owners.

The manifesto says:

As with all property, if it is not looked after over time, the ability to use or own it is lost. For this reason, needs cannot be left unaddressed over time, by the definition of "needs" themselves. Maintenance of property demands responsibility, and in O&P this is a cardinal virtue of dominants and owners.

Respect for property

(10) Respect for property rights is one of the ten keywords in the O&P manifesto, and part of O&P's ethical system.

The manifesto says:

In O&P, respect for property also informs relations between people outside of their relationships. For example, protocols and etiquette treat unattached submissives as independent people, governing their own lives, and not subject to other dominants; equally, protocols and etiquette acknowledge the status of submissives in other dominants' possession and do not presume, for instance, that submissives can still make decisions which are now in the hands of their dominant. Respect for inanimate property is also the basis for the ancient customs of hosts and guests, in both the domestic and public spheres.

Risk Aware, Consensual, Kink; also, Risk-Aware, Consensual, Kink, RACK Acronym

(2) A loosely defined code of conduct in the BDSM community which holds that a given activity is ethically acceptable between adults so long as everyone involved is aware of the risks involved, if any, and gives informed consent to that activity. The idea behind "risk-aware, consensual kink" is an acknowledgment of the fact that some BDSM activities may involve risk of injury, and that as long as all the participants are aware of any risk and consent to the activity, the activity is ethical.
(2) See related SSC.
(2) See related edgeplay (def. 1).

(4) A loosely defined code of conduct in the BDSM community which holds that a given activity is ethically acceptable between adults as long as everyone involved is aware of the risks and gives informed consent to that activity.

(10) Risk-Aware Consensual Kink (RACK, also Risk-Accepted Consensual Kink) is an acronym used by some of the BDSM community to describe themselves and their philosophies. It specifies that any activity between fully-informed consenting adults is acceptable.
Philosophy
RACK's tenets can be described by listing the component letters of the acronym:

• Risk: We have thought about this and assessed any risk
• Aware: We are aware of what we are doing and the risks it carries
• Consensual: We have sought this out and have agreed to take part
• Kink: Alternative sex.

RACK focuses on awareness and informed consent, rather than attempting to divide BDSM into sets of safe and unsafe practices. This is in contrast to the more common Safe, Sane, and Consensual slogan. This change of emphasis is intended to encompass edgeplay and other activities which are not inherently safe, and to encourage BDSM participants to carry out risk assessments about their activities, in the way that is practiced in "dangerous sports" such as rock climbing and scuba diving.

History
RACK was coined in reaction to dissatisfaction within the BDSM community surrounding the SSC slogan and attempts to use it to exclude "unsafe" activities. Gary Switch first proposed the term on a TES mailing list out of a desire to form a more accurate portrayal of the type of play that many engage in.

Criticisms
From the point of view of ownership relationships, RACK is a considerable improvement on SSC, since it places responsibility with the participants for deciding whether an activity is worth its level of risk. However, the RACK philosophy does not deal with the vital issue of consensual non-consent; and does not offer an argument against discrimination by governments and other organizations, who can carry out their own risk assessments of BDSM or ownership, and decide to criminalize us.

Roissy

(4) A fictitious chateau featured in the novel 'Histoire d'O' (The story of O) where the heroine, 'O', was first introduced to sadomasochism and enslaved. Sometimes used as a code word to indicate S/M.

Roissy protocol

(10) The first chapter of Story of O describes O's introduction to the Chateau de Roissy and the society which runs it. O is subject to the chateau's strict high protocol, which this article summarises as a protocol schema.

Classes
Three classes are present at Roissy: male masters, male valets, and female slaves.

Masters are members of the Roissy society, and O's owner, Rene, is a member of this class. Whilst each owner retains ultimate authority over his slave, she is subject to the commands of the other masters and is sexually available to them all. As O is told on her first night, "You are here to serve your masters."

The valets are employees of the society and wear a uniform similar to a theatre usher: jacket, waistcoat, frill-shirt, and breeches. Valets carry out any punishments which the masters do not wish to inflict personally, and are responsible for chaining the slaves at night in their rooms. The valets have the keys to the doors of these rooms and may make use of the slaves in their set of rooms. However, valets do not have the status of masters and give their instructions to the slaves in the form of polite requests.

None of the women at Roissy have any of the keys, and each owner's slaves are also subject to the commands of the other masters, as symbolized by the skeleton keys for all the doors, padlocks, collars, and bracelets which each master possesses. They are also subject to the instructions of the valets.

Dress and symbols
The female slaves wear a costume similar to eighteenth-century chambermaids: a whalebone bodice, which raises the breasts and is very tight at the waist; a starched linen petticoat; an ample gown with an open neck which reveals the raised breasts unless partially hidden by a thin gauze. They are not permitted to wear stockings, and must always sit with their bare flesh in contact with the material of their seat. They wear thick-soled high-heel clogs or mules, with only a single band of satin across the foot. Sections of the skirt can be lifted and worn tucked into the belt, exposing whatever parts of the lower body the masters wish to be exposed.

Each woman is fitted with a snug, locking, leather bracelets and a leather collar, which require a key to open. Both bracelets and collar have metal rings that allow them to be used as restraints.

(The famous iron finger ring is only given to O on leaving Roissy.)

Speech rules
The women are not permitted to speak in the presence of men, both masters, and valets.

Deportment
The female slaves are not permitted to meet the gaze of masters or valets, and not look higher than their waist. They must also concentrate on their duties and behave submissively (meeting the gaze, thoughtlessness or lack of submissiveness are punished with whippings.) Their duties include sweeping, replacing books in the library, arranging flowers, waiting on tables, serving coffee and liqueurs, and tending fires. Slaves must respond immediately to the first word or gesture from a master and make themselves available, stopping in the middle of another task if necessary. This availability must be borne in mind constantly, and to aid this, they may not cross their legs, close their lips fully, press their knees together, or otherwise close their labia.
