I often see Masters, Doms and Superiors online asking for, or expecting, tributes. Especially before they’ll agree to engage with a sub. I don’t see tributes this way. Here’s my take on tax, payments and tributes.
A tribute is a way to show respect and admiration to your Superior or Master. It is not a payment for a service. It’s not payment for a Skype session or for his time in any other way. Anything you get as a result of a tribute is a bonus and you should consider yourself very lucky to receive it.
You tribute only to please. You tribute because your cash has a better home in his wallet. You tribute because he will make better use of money than you. You tribute in the hope he will see the extra, unasked for, effort you’re putting into making his life better.
Tax is not a tribute. You pay fagtax by arrangement. Superiors may demand a regular payment of a set amount. Fagtax Friday is common place. This tax might include advance payment for a service or for his time but, primarily you pay this to maintain your relationship with a Superior. It’s the basic, the minimum, the starting point.
You make payments for various reasons: You pay your Superior to compensate for the time he gives you, for the effort and work he puts in to creating those things you need from him. You pay his expenses, his bills, his memberships and subscriptions. You pay for his time at the gym or at work making those socks stink. You pay a deposit to arrange a meet as well as the payment you’ll make on the day. When he takes your card at a cashpoint and helps himself, you’re paying for the service he’s providing. You’re paying for the feeling you get as he does it. As he opens your wallet and takes more, you’re paying for him to carry on and spend longer giving you what you need. You pay as he demands. You pay to be drained. You pay to be used. You pay him to use you.
You’ll pay your tax without fail if you want him to take you seriously. No Superior should ever have to chase you for the fagtax you owe. Even after paying tax, you have no claim on his time. If you have his attention, be prepared to pay for it.
With whatever you have left you tribute. A tribute is gift from you. You expect nothing for it. You shouldn’t need to be prompted. You tribute because you can. You tribute often and as best you can, even if it hurts, especially if it hurts. You may never be thanked, but doing more than expected will be noticed and, you may just get a little more of what you need.
