B.E.S.T. slave Training
Contracts
The major purpose of a slave contract is to define the goals and set
standards expected of a slave and establish the responsibilities of
the Master. It is not a legally binding contract, but it is a symbolic
representation of the commitment for both Master and slave. Within the
BDSM community it is considered an important document and should only
be approached if both Master and slave are serious and committed to
the future, to a shared lifestyle and to their duties that will be
defined in the contract.
It reflects what is expected in the re-education and re-socialization of
the slave. Generally slave contracts are more detailed during earlier
stages of training than later stages. The details in earlier contracts
help guide both Master and slave in the right direction.
Contracts don’t define how a slave is to act all the time, but instead
provide general concepts. It often refers to rules and guidelines that
will be set by the Master that are independent of the contract. The
contract is a permanent document that does not change much over time,
however rules and guidelines may change. The contract is a future
oriented document. It's intent is to explain what is expected of
both Master and slave in the future. The freedoms given to her
Master should be clearly defined and understood by the slave. There
is no reason not to freely discuss the contract with a trainee before
both sign the document.
The contract serves as a reminder to the slave of the freedoms she
has delivered to her Master. It is also a reminder to the Master of
his responsibilities to his slave.
An actual slave contract is not shown here. It would be a waste of
space since there are so many examples on the internet. They range
from play or scene contracts to slave contracts.
The major consideration of a slave before signing the contract is to
make sure she is willing and able to abide by the conditions, restrictions
and loss of freedoms before signing. The signing of a contract can’t be a
forced act. It is a consensual document and must be clearly understood.
Before the actual signing of the contract is the right time to ask
questions and get answers.
