Rule 5: I will address him as Daddy.
Rule 5.1: Whenever making a request of him I must address him as Daddy.
Rule 5.2:If I do not address him correctly, I must complete a Tier 2 punishment.
I have been stalled a bit on the rules posts because I honestly didn’t want to discuss this one at all. The Daddy THING is just so … trite. To be clear, we are not Daddy/Little Girl people. At all. We don’t have an incest kink and in truth, I think the actual practice of this rule annoys us both. I’m fairly certain he doesn’t love me calling him Daddy and I know for a fact I hate saying it. As a matter of fact, I think we both hate it enough that we don’t really follow/enforce it a as rigorously as other rules.
In fact, I’d say the place where this rule typically makes its appearance is related to Rule 2.3. Rule 2.3 requires that I ask permission before using the bathroom when he and I are together. Thus, to really make that request, it has to include … Daddy. It is…the absolute worst. For a while, I tried to just avoid asking permission. That seemed better than the completely degrading prospect of uttering the phrase, “Daddy, may I please use the bathroom?” It makes me cringe just typing it.
I think there also may have been a few times where he made me call him Daddy while he was fucking me (super terrible). Although that doesn’t happen all that much because, see above, we kind of hate it.
As a little bit of a side note, we have actually been trying to figure this issue out for a while. I proposed sometime last year that perhaps I shouldn’t call him by his name. That I am not allowed to address him directly. Hot right? But, then the real pressing question arose of what exactly the alternatives were. The most obvious one, I think, was Sir. Which, kind of worked (and used to be in the previous version of Rule 5), but honestly was a little stilted. We also had a lot of funny ideas, my favorite being Captain! But, that was too silly.
We’ve settled (for the moment) on Daddy largely because of the high humiliation factor. Anyhow, I digress.
I think this zone is one that we spend a lot of time in, especially me. The act itself may not resonate as explicitly sexy. In fact, many times, the act itself is affirmatively non-sexy. However, relinquishing control in this way and being forced to make this terrible choice is … sexy. And, I find I want to.
I also have a perspective on what the “right” choices are by the way. The thing I want, is to behave in the way he wants me to. I get immense satisfaction out of complying. I also feel anxiety when I don’t behave in the way that will please him. And all of that is also sexy.
But really, I don’t want to call him Daddy.
