“I am your spaniel; and, Demetrius,
The more you beat me, I will fawn on you:
Use me but as your spaniel, spurn me, strike me,
Neglect me, lose me; only give me leave,
Unworthy as I am, to follow you.

And yet a place of high respect with me,—
Than to be used as you use your dog? —WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE,
A Midsummer Night’s Dream”

“Why I tie about thy wrist,
Julia, this silken twist,
For what other reason is’t
But to show thee how, in part,
Thou my pretty captive art?
But thy bond slave is my heart.

Knap the thread and thou art free,
But ’tis otherwise with me:
I am bound and fast bound so
That from thee I cannot go;
If I could I would not so. —ROBERT HERRICK,
“The Bracelet (to Julia)”
― Kate Kinsey, Red

“To the uneducated, being a Dominant or Master sounds like an excuse for getting your own way in a relationship. But that’s not the case at all.
