Food!

I came across a post on fet about the ethics of a master making a vegetarian slave eat meat. For the most part people commented about being sure of compatibility before committing to an M/s dynamic and a few people made remarks to the effect of they wouldn't be with someone who was such a jerk that they would do that to them.

For me it's a bit different. Yes I want a high level of compatibility but on the other hand while I hate doing stuff I don't like I also need to know that he would if he wanted to. It re enforces the feeling of being granted privileges not just having my way even on things important to me.

As it happens I don't like meat, I'm not vegetarian or vegan I simply don't care for the taste of meat generally. Since being with him Das has on more than one occasion made me eat steaks. At the time I was highly annoyed to say the least but I was also comforted. He's made me learn to drink alcohol socially, go to wine tasting (i really don't like wine, how come there is never a pina colada tasting) and eat other gross things like asparagus, ick. I'm pretty sure control is a kink of mine though so it probably influenced my processing of those events. Most people don't have to process eating veggies but everyone has something.
