The impor­tance of trust in the train­ing of a slave. 

slav­ery in the terms of a BDSM rela­tion­ship is the con­scious trans­fer­ence of a slave’s free­doms to her Mas­ter.  She becomes his prop­erty body, mind and spirit by the means of con­sen­sual giving. 

Before a slave can give her­self com­pletely to her Mas­ter she must know that she can TRUST him.

TRUST means that she has learned that he:

1) has the knowl­edge and skills nec­es­sary to train her,

2) will keep her safe,

3) will accept own­er­ship of her,

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