The Master’s House Boy is required to serve naked at home but is loaned sufficient clothing or covering to be legal in public and okay in places with dress codes, like stores and clubs. He is not permitted to wear underwear at any time unless a rule or the Master specifically says that he may. White underwear must be specially hand washed and hung to dry where it can be seen by all who visit.

When a House Boy is discovered to be wearing unauthorized clothing, it is the responsibility of both the boy and the Master to ensure that the clothing is removed as soon as possible. The Master will usually order the boy to remove the item immediately, though there may be circumstances where this is not possible or practical. The boy has no right to privacy during this process and maybe instructed to strip – completely naked if need be – at any location where nudity is legal or traditional.

In the example pictured, a House Boy is caught wearing white underwear following an afternoon at a local beach. The white underwear was required to be worn – by themselves with nothing covering them – while the boy was playing in the surf and sand, but when it came time to leave the boy was too embarrassed to remove them and instead put his blue jeans on over the skivvies while the Master was temporarily distracted.

When the Master and boy later traveled to a nearby park to meet some friends for an outdoor summer concert, one of the observant friends spotted the underwear peeking out at the boy’s waistline. The park is a public place and nudity is not allowed, so the boy can not be ordered to strip or forcibly depantsed. The Master’s best option is to remove the tighty-whiteys through the ‘Melvin Process’: a violent but harmless stretching of the underwear upward until either the garment is torn and destroyed or it can be placed around the boy’s forehead, which is then pushed forward to complete the removal. Onlookers tend to find this procedure hilariously funny – and House Boys find it terribly humiliating – but to the Master, it’s a necessary procedure that must take place, regardless of the reaction of others.

Instances like these are quite rare, and most House Boys do not find themselves having clothing forcibly removed by ‘Melvin’, because most boys are careful and compliant and enjoy pleasing the Master. These “Good Boys” receive rewards from the Master in the form of praise or recreational time to enjoy in the pool or working out, etc. But for the small number of boys who act out and can’t control themselves, enforced compliance is a way of life and the Master is happy to provide the mentorship and guidance – and firm hand – to physically enforce the dress code or any other rule. And speaking of firm hands, this House Boy is subject to being spanked by the Master’s firm hands for violating the dress code, and punishment may be immediate – or deferred at the Master’s option.
