Foxies In a way its odd to think how useful chastity devices might have been to me in my profession if back then I had the knowledge I have now and had access to them in a way that would have allowed me to offer them as a service.
This is exactly where I'm coming from!! I honestly believe that chastity belts have a place, a positive role in helping people. This is why I'd like to see them in common use. The sex drive is really strong. It can overwhelm us, but it can't overwhelm a belt, at least not in the heat of the moment, ...and that's when it really counts.
Foxies I wonder how many girls I might have been able to save before their actions led then down a path that, for many of them, ruined their lives.
Absolutely. You can see this concern driving the parents who choose to become belt providers. And, to be clear, I have no gender bias here, I think belts can help males as well.
Foxies how many lives would have been so much better, assuming that it had been legal and accepted to offer them and that my persuasive skills were up to the challenge.
Gotta get belts to the people who'd benefit from them, and keep them away from those whose would react badly to them. A necessary part of this process is de-fetishizing chastity belts and their therapeutic use: Less bondage, more bandage.
Vanessa Generally,on this board at least,no one is "forced";it is more some sort of "blackmailing",like "wear it or you lose our financial support/the relationship with the family/the increased freedom you have/etc...".And we all can decide it is worth it,and stop wearing the belt(but can't avoid these consequences in this case).
To preserve consent people have to be able to have the freedom to say no. Where adults like @Renita or @Christine make deals with their mothers it all seems fair and consensual, even where this does end up with secondary shield use.
I haven't got anything against persuasion, bribes and inducements either: Belts can be an uncomfortable loss of sexual freedom, but it's nice to have a car or the freedom to go out etc. But parents often have a series of very unfair advantages in negotiations. They have money, jobs, houses etc, whereas dependents by definition, don't. Where threats of being cut off from family are made, this may seriously affect wearer's necessary ability to say NO to a belt.
