Ownership Issues

[Guest Strawberry]

Hello! I'm still doing a lot of research into dd/lg but one thing that had come up is this theme of ownership of a little by a daddy or mommy. I had been under the assumption as I've been reading that one of the key differences between dd/lg and a more traditional BDSM relationship that there was a distinct lack of ownership (ie "So-and-so owns my princess parts") and the exchange of power was more of a caregiving one especially with regression being a huge aspect of dd/lg. I guess my main question is if this type of ownership is normal/expected if I enter a relationship like this. Are most rules inclusive of the statement "Daddy owns my princess parts" or some version of that statement?

To tell you the truth, it's dependent on your own dynamic. As you may know, one Master/slave dynamic is going to be different than others because the partnership is different. Everyone has different rules, different limitations, different outlooks on what they want.

 

DDlg doesn't have to be "Daddy owns my princess parts", but it can if you want it to. The difference between the dynamic primarily is that it's the "Caregiver" dynamic as opposed to the "Top", "Owner", "Master", "Dominant".

So then there isn't an expected ownership dynamic? When setting down rules and expectations, it will still be considered dd/lg to leave out that aspect if I leave out a component like that? Also does collaring apply to this type of situation or is that left to a more master/slave or a master/pet dynamic?

I think collaring is more master/pet, definitely. 

But Petplay and dd/lg seem to go hand in hand. 

But like Bones said, it's all about you, there are no set rules that you need to have to be a part of dd/lg, you make your own rules, what you like, what is comfortable and what your partner likes and is comfortable with.
