Ownership subculture

The Ownership Subculture refers to the set of ideas, attitudes, events, and writings of people who are seeking or pursuing ownership relationships: that is, 24/7 D/s or Master/slave relationships, where ultimate authority over the submissive or slave is always in the hands of the owner.

Example aspects of the subculture:

• A master and slave in a relationship
• The rituals, habits and ideas surrounding a collar
• "The Story of O" by Pauline Reage
• The MASTER/slave Conference in Washington, DC
• The theory of Internal Enslavement

Through the prevalence of Master/slave dynamics, the Ownership subculture is strongly related to the Leather subculture (especially in North America), and has some overlap with the BDSM Play Scene and to a much lesser extent, the Fetish Scene.
