High Protocol

Stumbled across this term this morning. Wasn’t something I had heard of before in regards to bdsm.

Short version, I saw it in a post on Reddit in a forum focused on sugar dating. The poster had come across a couple that was looking on SA for someone to live in and travel with them and practice “ high etiquette/high protocol”. TBH came across as a bit creepy

So after a bit of research (aka Googling) it sounds like “high protocol” is having a submissive that follows a set of strict set of pre arranged rules. Examples I saw were how to speak, opening doors, where to stand, etc

My questions. Is the above a correct interpretation of high protocol?,, is it a fairly common thing and is it normally 24/7? That seems like it would be intense. But admittedly I don’t know much about live in slaves. It also seemed odd that someone would be looking for this on a fairly vanilla site and seemed like it could have a lot of potential for abuse?

Anyway, just curious. I don’t come across much bdsm stuff on Reddit that I’m not familiar with and while I do try not to judge anyone’s kink, the screen shot the poster shared was definitely odd.

Yes that is my understanding of high protocol as well. Ive also heard it referred to as European Domination although not sure if that was used correctly or not.

I agree a sugar forum is probably loaded with the potential for abuse for that and i think an inappropriate place to search for it.

Yes, that’s pretty much my understanding too. Things like being expected to know(and display on demand) multiple “slave positions”, lots of rules like speech restrictions, keeping eyes lowered, kneeling the the presence of the Domme etc etc

I really enjoy it. Mixed with feminization HP training is a favorite of mine.

As a switch, I enjoy it too. In college, I dated a girl who was a freak like me. We'd take a week a month for this type of play, alternating who was the top and bottom. It would be too much for me 24/7 but now and then is sexy.
