Ownership

The bond between a dominant and a submissive is what ownership is all about. The dominant individual "owns" the submissive in their relationship, which is analogous to an owner-slave relationship. An adult is a self-sufficient member of society who is free to act. However, they wish as long as they stay within the law. However, a person can be "owned" by their dominant master in the BDSM community. Rituals and registration as someone's slave may be required for this.

More About Ownership

Similar to everything else in the BDSM community, ownership is negotiated. Some people might agree to "ownership" 24/7, in which they obey instructions and adhere to rules every day. Playtime may be bargained as part of "ownership" in various situations.
