A Humane Contract

The most famous M/s contract is a ghastly joke, over specifying far too many details of behavior. Probably more often reproduced than followed.

Many are straightforward statements of power and responsibility. But they aren’t imaginative or individual to the couple. Just sort of embody a number of BDSM clichés.

The contract that Dev is working on is a fine human document really fit to clarify and provide assurance for the two people in the relationship.

Example:

You may sometimes fear that you don’t know how to serve me. It is my wish that you be calm and relaxed and trust that if I am not pleased, or if I have a desire, I will express it. If you are not pleasing me I will correct you. If I want your service I will demand it. And please trust that I will often want and demand your service.

I want you to strive. I want you to hold yourself to high standards. But I also want you to accept my love, kindness, and mercy. I want you to view yourself with love and forgiveness. I want you to understand that I see you as a beautiful person deserving of love.
