The Service to Suffering Scale

Submissives can be found all along the continuum of the service to suffering sliding scale.

It is the Dominant’s responsibility to delicately move you along the scale to help you find your edges and limits.

It is the submissive’s responsibility to explore the scale and discover the heart of your true nature and where it lies.

At one end is the submissive who finds pleasure in giving service; in providing for the Dominant’s every need even before She requires it. These submissives are usually people pleasers and truly enjoy pleasing and bringing pleasure to their Mistress.

At the other end of the scale, is the masochist who enjoys suffering and the pleasure that that brings to a sadistic Mistress. masochists usually have some level of self loathing and often enjoy humiliation*.

On the ego scale, service submissives tend to be very humble and have very little ego. While masochists, again, are on the other end of the scale with a great deal of ego and focus on what they get from the sessions rather than what they give.

This is not a judgment, it is simply what is and what defines different types of submissives and different submissive natures. All submissives, of course, want to be dominated.

So contemplate this. As your Mistress skillfully pushes you up and down the “service to pain” scale until you find that resting place where you feel most comfortable and at home.
