Ah! You’re up! Perfect. Just in time for me to steal some of your cereal. That’s the best part of breakfast - eating a bit of someone else’s.

Really, if you are not following 333images, well, you totally should be. There are lots of interesting things to read and see over there. The past few posts have been dealing with the theme of writing on the body.
I find his reactions and reflections to writing on the body so fascinating - the mix of repulsion and desire intrigues me. For myself, my reaction is so different. I find it not to be humiliating so much as I find it to be utterly… silly. My reaction, whenever I see images of beautiful or crudely marked up submissives is along the lines of ‘Really? Meh.’ It often looks so crass and dull - ‘cock whore’, ‘cum bucket’, ‘fuck hole’… Just not humiliating to me, somehow, and yet, I feel like it should be. Really, I feel as though the degrader comes across looking like a fuckwit, because it just seems so juvenile and silly. I don’t mean to offend others that may seriously enjoy this kind of degradation, everyone has their own kinks, I’m just intrigued about my own reaction to it, that it leaves me feeling completely cold.
Actually, it’s more than that. It leaves me feeling a sense of contempt. As though those that would write or mark my body are beneath me, somehow. That an external degradation or marking like that is shallow and meaningless to me. Sure. Label me. Draw a penis on me. Write ‘slave’ so it looks like ‘SUAVE’. Knock yourself out. But know that on the inside? I feel superior to you.
It’s a really odd reaction, one that I’m not sure where or what it stems from, but it is so consistent when I see pictures like this. You want a haughty reaction? Do things like this to me. I am sure that will elicit it faster than you could put a lid on your Sharpie.
I imagine that the girl in the last image is crying because she’s just been spanked, or similarly punished. But here, I think she’s crying simply from the humiliation, and that makes me…cringe.
When I see images of people tied up, I think oooo, fun, I want to be that person. And when I see images of people being punished or tortured, I think, ouch, fun, I want to be that person…but not right now. In both cases, I’m turned on by the D/s story it tells.
When I see images of humiliation, I have a very different reaction. I get very critical and picky. I hate this guy’s haircut, and expression, and bracelet, and I really hate what he’s drawing and writing on her. But that’s the point, of course. She hates it, too—that’s why she’s crying.
Thing is, I can still see the D/s story, and I still find it arousing. I just find it much scarier than whips and chains.
