An Owned Life
An Introduction to the M/s Lifestyle
Dennis Najee · 2009
M/s
An Owned Life is a comprehensive introduction to the Master/slave (M/s) lifestyle from the perspective of long-term power exchange as a way of life rather than a collection of BDSM activities. Drawing extensively upon Dennis Najee's personal experiences, the book examines the philosophical foundations, psychological dynamics, responsibilities, and daily realities of consensual ownership relationships. Rather than focusing primarily on scenes, techniques, or fetish practices, it presents M/s as a complete relationship model built upon authority, service, commitment, and mutual fulfilment.
