Weighing Beauty
Obesity In The Submissive Female

We’ve all witnessed it. The troubled expression on someone’s face when looking at a loved one. The uncomfortable silences. The unspoken agreement not to mention it.
Even in the relationships of Masters and slaves, there are subjects that the majority of people have deemed too personal and potentially inflammatory to discuss. Interestingly enough, a man can dictate his girl’s hairstyle, clothing choices, even the brand of perfume she wears, and it will only make her feel more cherished and cared for. But most men, be they Master, boyfriend or husband, quail at the thought of mentioning an issue that not only affects a female’s physical attractiveness, but her health, and thus her ability to perform to the fullest extent.
That issue, of course, is weight.
We have been trained for generations now to accept the sight of an overweight or obese woman with silence, browbeaten by the cudgel of political correctness into telling polite lies. And all the while our lifestyles (and consequently, our forms) grow more and more disgusting and unnatural.
Females come in all shapes and sizes, it’s true. And a good thing, too, given the varying tastes of those who enjoy them! But there are limits to what the human body can withstand while still remaining healthy, and it is the height of arrogance for anyone to claim the right to silence discussion of a physical reality simply because it makes him or her uncomfortable. Fat has become the great monster lurking in the corner of the room, seldom openly acknowledged, but always lending its influence to the surrounding relationships and interactions. When one is in the company of a fat person, one feels the constant need to tiptoe around the subject, for fear of causing pain or offense.
But while this is perhaps somewhat understandable in general society…how did it become so between Master and slave? If a man’s property is malfunctioning, does he not have the right to try to repair it? For that is, at heart, the situation, if his submissive girl allows herself to become unhealthy or unappealing—or both—by failing to maintain an acceptable weight.
This is a painful subject. The author of this essay is well aware of that fact, being herself a female who is struggling against a weight problem. But as has been said many times…the truth hurts. And the truth is, to most humans, excess fat is unattractive as well as detrimental to the health of its bearer.
Yet we continue to hide from this. Those who are fat either fool themselves into not seeing it, pretend not to, or simply shrug and say, “this is the way I am. There’s nothing I can do.” And those who care for them either bite their tongues so as not to cause pain, or try to force themselves to look past the issue altogether.
But why, we ask, should a Master need to do either of those things? The answer is that he should not. If his female is on a path of self-destruction, or even simply on one which makes her less pleasing to his eye, touch and pride, then it is well within his rights to steer her from it. Depending upon the level of his own devotion to her, some might even call it his duty. For what is a slave if not a creature in need of leadership—and particularly in the area of a problem so notoriously difficult to conquer?
The diet industry is one of the most continually prosperous in the Western world; everywhere we look there are more advertisements for products and programs to assist us in losing weight. This is not a small issue, or an isolated one—everyone knows it’s hard to get fit.
However, it’s not impossible. It’s not even as hard as we make it…we just don’t want to give up the foods we like, or engage in the activities we think we don't. The simple, raw truth is that most of us can help being fat. Gland problems and poor metabolism do exist, but they are nowhere near as commonplace as many overweight folk would have us believe.
It hurts to admit that one is fat. It hurts even more to admit that it’s one’s own fault. But in the great majority of cases, that’s exactly what should be done. If one is a free person, that act of taking accountability is of course a choice, and can be left for all eternity if one so desires.
But a submissive female owes her Master better than that casual dismissal of fact, just as she owes him the pleasure of beholding a female who is as healthy and beautiful as possible. How can she be a credit to her owner, when it is obvious from her own appearance the taste of a chocolate brownie or pepperoni pizza was more important to her than pleasing him? How can a Master be proud of a slave who is out of control? And how can he, in good conscience, deny his own right to assert that control, if the slave herself cannot?
If the reader can disregard the automatic outrage that comes of seeing this approach to such an almost-universally sore subject, we believe he or she will recognize both the truth of our words, and the positive intentions behind their publication. We do not seek to humiliate or hurt the overweight and obese; on the contrary, we wish to help them in making the decision to improve. There are times in our lives when almost all of us find it is easier to change for someone else than for ourselves; how could it be otherwise for the submissive heart?
It is perhaps best to close this essay with a gentle reminder for those who have come to realize this aspect of a female’s duty. That reminder is thus: that any influence a slave grants to food and laziness is influence of which her Owner has been cheated.
Surely most of us can agree upon which is more important.
