Here are some questions re branding. Of course, the forum only has what seems to be fewer than 10 regular posters and so there may not be a lot of input on these questions . . .

It seems that only 1 in 10 or 1 in 15 dommes do branding . . . or that it is generally not on their websites as a possibility or offering . . . or that if it is possible, it is in the category of "If something interests you and is not on this list, please ask."

I would personally be intrigued to see a domme who does branding but am perhaps too afraid to ask for it or permit it. I definitely have not and would not send an email to a potential or current domme inviting her to brand me but some people can be seduced into some things.

If you are a domme . . . re branding . . .

1) would you share some stories of guys you persuaded to get branded, if any?
2) If you do not brand, do you wish to explain why?
3) if you brand, why?
4) Have you persuaded any guys to get branded while doing tease-and-denial or when they were locked in chastity and wanted out?
5) Have you ever tried to torment a guy in chastity by telling him he would only get out early by getting branded?
6) you would like to brand a guy, but have not thought of it much . . . .
or
7) you would like to brand a guy, but there has been no opportunity so far . . .

If you are a guy or sub . . .

1) Have any dommes you have seen brought up branding you?
2) If you were locked in chastity or in some other torment, would that be a factor in your saying no or yes? Or, is the answer an automatic no?
3) under what circumstances, if any, would you be willing to get branded?

for either . . .
Is branding regarded as too dangerous or too permanent to be considered?

Since I kind of assume that 99% of guys will not be asking for a branding, is it that the only time it happens is when the domme persuades or seduces the guy or corrupts his judgment by locking him in chastity?

Too permanent for me in my current situation, I would consider it for the right domme in a long term relationship. I hope that helps. I think the ownership denoted by a brand is exciting!?

I have fantasized about wearing a Mistresses brand for years. I came very close to having it done a few years back but my Mistress/owner relocated across country.

Branding and Tattooing are a major turn on... I am willing with the right Domme.

I took a class many years ago with some NYC dommes from a professional tattoo artist who also did scarification (branding). Like most things it is not hard to do once you know how, but if you don't know, it is easy to mess up terribly.

It's cool to know how to do, but I have only done it on practice chicken breasts from the shop. Personally, I feel it is highly inappropriate in a professional setting. My clients carry a "brand" on the inside of their skulls. If a lifestyle domme wanted me to brand her slave for her, I would consider that, but it's just as easy to teach her how to do it.

So even though I know how to do it, I would not list it on my activities. I have never had a serious request for it, nor do I have a particular interest to scarify, tattoo or otherwise mark permanently my personals.

As usual, I agree with Domina M on this topic. Not really sure why anyone would want to get a brand from a mistress in any kind of professional relationship. It would have to be a long term lifestyle thing. To me, it's an exciting fantasy - but that's all it is.

I agree with Domina M and NYCRick. That is over the top for me.

My only experience with "branding" was when in mid session with a long time domina of mine stopped to relieve herself. She asked me "do you want to watch?" I said yes and was ordered to crawl to the bathroom. A day or two after the session, as was our practice, I called and she discussed what worked and didn't in session. I mentioned I wanted her to "brand" me with her golden essence on my chest and grain in our next session. She said I was not ready for that yet.

Months later in mid session she surprised me and took me to the bathroom and I was "branded" with her GS. It was highly erotic. I had to clean her, quickly shower and return to her bedroom for more training.

I had been with a Domme for 3 1/2 years and thought I would be with her for many more. As such I was considering a brand or some sort of permanent mark. Then the relationship started falling apart which is always a risk, so I'm glad I didn't do that.
