Re-education and Re-socialization

The slave  

For a slave, the process of training always involves change. Even if she has been a slave for 20 years and for some reason now has a new Master, a re-education and re-socialization process takes place.

A slave can expect changes in her behavior, emotions, self-image and thoughts.  Being trained as a slave is not a passive process on the slave’s part.   

It is important that a slave understands the goals a Master has set for her training and aim her efforts to completing these goals.  A slave must accept the goals of her Master and adopt them as her own.  Training is based upon her acceptance of her Master’s goals and striving to reach them. 

The three main aims of the slave in training

1.      Develop a sense of belonging to her Master  

It is important that a slave takes her time and determines that she is a relationship match with her Master before she grants him total authority.   She should use her time as a free person to choose the right Master to own you.  

This concept  of belonging to her Master is a difference between a slave and a submissive.  A slave is the property of her Master. She must reach a decision to grant her Master her choices. 

It is necessary for her to have this feeling of belonging to her Master   It is one of the keys to success in early training as well as a long lasting relationship.   

Perhaps this feeling of belonging to her Master is the hardest part of slave training to explain because it is totally based on a personal connection between Master and slave. It is impossible to develop a standard when you are talking about individual feelings and emotions. However, she must be able to trust her Master before she can have a sense of belonging to him.  

There are some basic things that are necessary before a slave can develop a sense of belonging. She must know that he:  

1) has the knowledge and skills necessary to re-educate and re-socialize her,

2) will keep her safe,

3) will accept ownership of her,

4) will structure her service in a way that she feels useful and 

5) has personal stability and integrity.  

For some slaves it may mean that she has to know that a Master will not leave.  She must prove to herself that her Master has the intestinal fortitude to stick it out through the hard times.   Each slave probably has a unique view of particular issues that must be satisfied before she lets go and grants her freedoms to her Master.      

As you can see, a sense of belonging will not happen overnight and with many slaves, both of you will have to face past negative events that have occurred in her life before moving on.  

2.      Adoption of behavior pleasing to her Master  

A slave has a desire to serve, obey and please her Master.  she knows that in order to accomplish this she must learn a behavior that is pleasing to him.  She also knows that she will be owned body, mind and spirit.  

A Master should have a well developed training plan for his slave or at least know what behavior he expects.  A slave should not be afraid to ask her Master what his goals are for her and to clarify for her what he wants during training.  If the instructions are not consistent  she should ask her Master what behavior he desires of her. A slave wants to learn how to serve, obey and please her Master and it is confusing to her if he changes his requirements all the time.   

Owning a slave’s body is an important concept in this training. This means that a Master owns her space, time, physical actions, privacy and relationships with others.   A slave can usually expect to receive intense discipline training early in the process.   Her duty is to focus on learning the behavior her Master desires and obedience.   

A slave can expect: 

1) discipline training,  

2) slave rules, protocols, and probably a training contract,  

3) that her Master will accepting no less than appropriate behavior, and 

4) her Master to offer both encouragement when she is successful and punishment if she fails.

The rules, protocols and any other training documents provided by her Master that detail the behavior he desires should be studied in detail and if the slave does not understand any of the points, again she should ask her Master. 

She can expect punishment if she is not obeying orders or exhibiting the behavior required of her.  Depending on the Master's philosophy,  it may or may not include corporal punishment.   

However behavior training alone does not make a complete slave. She must see herself as a slave and be at peace in her slavery.   In short, her behavior, emotions, self-image and thoughts are all part of training.  A slave must be willing to open her inner thoughts and feelings to her Master.  It is another key issue in her development.   Openness is a learned skill.  

Part of developing a sense of belonging involves instilling a sense of helplessness.  By this I mean, a slave is helpless to change her behavior because her Master controls it.  She has no choice but to obey.  

A slave must reach a state of mind where she makes a decision to grant her Master all her choices.  If a Master owns her choices she is helpless to behave other than a way that is pleasing to her Master.   It is his choice as to how she behaves.  

3.      Re-socialize to fit her Master’s social needs.  

This involves not just learning the behavior a Master wants but putting it into practice and being useful to him. Re-socialization is the slave’s adoption of the new behaviors and attitudes that are pleasing to her Master.  In slave training, behavior changes are not determined by compromise, the slave adapts to the behavior her Master wishes.  

This is establishing and developing a social consecutiveness between a Master and slave. It includes establishing the Master and the absolute authority figure in the relationship and the slave as his property.   This however does not mean that a Master makes all decisions for her, it means he can make any decision he wishes to make.   

Breaking a Master’s instructions down into smaller steps that can be completed is important to reinforcing a positive self-image and to overcome a feeling of being overwhelmed.  

A slave can expect to have any resistance and reactance to training challenged and corrective action taken because she has no choice but to obey.   Controlling behavior creates a feeling of helplessness that establishes and reinforces a feeling of belonging.  

A combination of discipline and punishment is part of her training and, if correctly applied, are both positive reinforcements for her and instill a feeling of helplessness.  

Discipline Training shows her proper behavior and reinforces the behavior demanded of her by her Master.   Punishment shows her the limits of her Master and demonstrates his willingness and ability to control her.  

The re-socialization will include learning her Master’s protocols which may include rules, speech restrictions, positions, and presenting modes.  (See Master's Domain for examples)
