We sometimes talk about the ways
in which feminism in today's culture affects
authentic submission, desensitizing females to
their most natural, inherently feminine
inclinations. But a little-discussed area shaped
by our militantly equalist society is our speech.
Though much effort is often made by both Master
and girl to untangle the matted mess of the
culturally influenced female mind—even while
living a reality that most women of our day would
mock and term (negatively) as "degrading" or
abusive—somehow the speech of many submissive
females still seems to slip through the cracks,
unaltered. Often considered a small detail, speech
is a subject many times overlooked for its
simplicity, and in this a girl's tongue is often
left to roam as freely as it pleases.
I have often found
that the female tongue, both of the submissive
female and non, is a sharp and poisonous
instrument. From the same lips that sing our
Masters' praises, also come disdain, contempt, and
sarcasm toward the rest of the world. This is a
disgrace and I would even go so far as to say that
it's blasphemous.
You may think,
sisters, that while you kiss your Master's feet,
the rest of the world can kindly kiss your ass,
but to believe so does not, in any way, honor your
possessor. You are a reflection of his work, and
in this world of varied communication, your words
are often the only picture of it. It is through
your words and the way you speak that impressions
about your character—and ultimately, his—are
formed.
The decorum used
while speaking is very much a reflection of the
condition of a female's heart, soul, and mind, and
it is my opinion that many are living, breathing
contradictions in this regard. While claiming to
be tamed, many spit venom like a wild animal. But
in any given circle, polite and meek-mannered
females stand out because such behavior is most
flattering to our sex. We must put this conflict
between our minds and our mouths to an end and
seek to tame our tongues, even if it means being
muzzled.
There are many
things on the road to true humility that disguise
themselves as being completely harmless, but often
are of extreme significance and a detriment to
female submission. Speech is certainly no
exception.
Let us look at
sarcasm, for example. Sarcasm is commonly used in
conversation, paraded as perfectly harmless, and
it is particularly popular among females. While it
does carry a little sting, sarcasm tends to be
regarded as a witty or clever form of speech. A
woman who wields it is praised for her quick wit
and sophistication. The word sarcasm gets its root
from the Greek word Sarkasmos, which means "To
tear flesh." Merriam-Webster defines sarcasm as A
sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance
designed to cut or give pain. The obvious intent
behind the use of sarcasm is to "cut down" and
humiliate those on the receiving end. So many men
not only tolerate this behavior in their girls,
but have even allowed it to mark them as
well-spoken and intelligent.
In a society
predicated upon blind equality, women are
encouraged to seek and conquer, no matter their
merits. Cynicism is upheld as a form of wisdom,
and crassness fashioned as hip. Nonetheless,
sarcasm, scorn, mockery and sneering are
undesirable, unattractive, and inappropriate.
Ladies, I urge you, listen closely to the words
you speak and do not allow sarcasm to be a poison
to those who hear you! It is unbecoming of you and
disgraceful to the Men you serve. If there is
flesh to be torn, let us leave it a task for the
hands of our Masters, and let us hope that the
flesh is ours so that we never forget our
place.
Our time is better
spent in listening and being attentive to the
needs of those speaking. I think most of my
sisters will find this idea rather hard to
swallow, which only adds to the importance of
stating it clearly. If you cannot submit even unto
silence, then you have not submitted much at all.
Be kind and sincere
in your responses when you do speak. Study
etiquette and practice it; this will improve you
as a servant and teach you a great deal about
social and personal humility. You will be an honor
to your Master in doing so. All females are
improved by gentility and meekness. When you're
given the privilege to speak freely, do so with
care and do not forget decorum. If you allow your
mouth to run away with you, it will not be long
before the rest of you tries to follow. We were
designed to be soft and pleasing creatures in all
things, but social fashion often tells us that we
must be something else. Protected by our Masters,
we have no need for such hardness, so let us
return to female gentility, to etiquette and
decorum. Let our tongues be tamed and used only
for pleasure and selfless service. Just as we
would not brush our Masters' hair with the same
brush we use to clean the toilet, neither should
we use the same mouth to kiss, suck and serve that
spews filth and disrespect to the rest of the
world.
