- Naming slaves
- (10) There is a tradition of slaves' names being assigned by their owners, and this is also true to a lesser extent in the case of submissives.
Many slaves are also not permitted full use of capital letters when referring to themselves, by using the pronoun "i" or by beginning their name with a lowercase letter. Despite assertions that this is purely "an internet thing" there is a long tradition of using the lower case to display humility.- From: www.seekdiscipline.com

- Need
- (10) Needs are desires of a submissive (or dominant) which cannot go unmet over time without harm. This is in contrast to wants which can go unmet without harm.
In O&P, it is the dominant's responsibility to ensure that needs are addressed, although the practicalities of achieving this may be delegated to the submissive in question or a third party. Different needs have different levels of urgency and frequency, and the elasticity of a need reflects this. Some needs, such as oxygen, are not at all elastic and a dominant has little scope in prioritizing them; but others, such as leading a purposeful life and growing as an individual, are very elastic and frequently put aside for a time in favor of more important tasks.- From: www.ownership-possession.com
