Sales Presentation by Roger Knight:
“Ah, you’re just in time. Come on in, please. The other ladies have settled in with wine and cheese, we can get started right away.”
The three ladies are local doms in the scene, known at the nightclubs, been on the talk radio, and so on. They were seated on the couch, enjoying refreshments. Behind me was a table with a computer with a standard home web page on the screen. Some boxes, a doorway to an adjacent room, and other such things.
“Ladies, to begin, we are all in the business of sensual pleasure as derived when one person yields control to another person. This takes on a variety of forms. One of you may agree to be the other’s love slave for the evening and will simply do what the other tells him or her, allow herself to be tied up, placed in a set of stocks, required to eat food out of a doggy dish, that sort of thing. The sub might be obliged to dress up in clothes he would not normally dress up in, such as clothing of the opposite sex, a French maid’s costume, standard or fetish style, and might have a collar and leash. The sub’s movement might be restricted with handcuffs, leg irons, a waistchain, or ballet type boots that are locked on. Ponygirls and ponyboys are another form we are familiar with.
“For some, chastity belts and other lock on devices such as collars, wrist cuffs, gauntlets, and ankle bracelets that can only be removed by a keyholder are their preference. The chastity belts are available in a variety of levels of security and some are designed for long term wear with high security. Others take the form of male chastity devices which restrict the expansion of the penis, including those made of plastic for subs whose employment takes then through metal detectors such as we find at courthouses and airports.
“What we have here is a set of devices intended and designed to allow one person to truly yield a far higher level of control to another person. Control that is truly 24/7 until released. Control that can be remote, where the dom can be anywhere on the Planet Earth and still control the sub, monitor where he or she is, limit her location, require her to perform tasks, and so on. I understand that you ladies suffered a bit of sticker shock at my prices. But I am confident that once you and your clients experience this next level of power exchange and control, you will be back for more! Indeed, I must warn you that some may find the experience a bit too intense.”
I then passed out the pieces of the first device in the demonstration to the ladies. “This model, of course, can only be used on men. We call it Gottem. As in Gottem by the balls. The surface of each part of the Gottem is made of a tough hypo-allergenic reinforced polyurethane. Highly resistant to electricity, waterproof, resistant to many acids, and of course bodily fluids, it is the perfect surface material for this type of application. Not only is this material commonly used in circuit boards, it is often used in surgical implants such as artificial heart valves and bypass arteries. The back piece fits behind the scrotum. The middle piece fits in front of the scrotum and with these alignment and locking pins, it is assembled to lock the testicles in place. The space is flat and somewhat oval, enough room to allow blood flow and such, but no way will your man slip one testicle out and then the other. On top of the middle piece is the space upon which you can lay the penis. Should it be hard, you will have to soften it up to lay it into this.”
“I see these gold plated pins on the inside surface.” said one of the ladies, as she inspected a piece of the Gottem. “Spring loaded, you can push them in and they pop back out. Are they what I think they are?”
“Electrical contacts. Spring loaded, stick out about 3/8 inch, but will push all the way in when locked against human skin. Maintains contact with the skin at all times under the pressure of the compressed spring. Gold plated because the precious metal is hypo-allergenic, conducts electricity almost as well as copper, better than aluminum, does not corrode except when exposed to aqua regia, which is a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acid. No one is going to pour aqua regia on human skin unless extreme malice is intended. We are not about that, we are about having fun.”
“Fun as in delivering a shock to the tender and sensitive parts for control purposes.” I can tell that is her idea of fun.
“Well, uh, yes. The shocks can vary in intensity, from light tingly, get your attention signals, to something truly devious and evil. I will explain the physics of how it works. Suffice to say, at the more intense levels it makes your skin feel like it’s on fire while using amazingly little electricity and doing no physical damage whatsoever. The client will want to experience it as little as possible. Thus, complete obedience. You should never have to go more than level two or three, given the parts of his body in contact with these little gold points.”
All three were grinning from ear to ear.
“Please note the shape of the penis containment. Tapered toward the body, it necks down. Were it not so, arousal would tend to push the whole thing off. You might want to tease your man. With this shape, the effect is to further lock it into place. Only the root of the penis, inside the abdomen, will be allowed to expend to full size. Inside the Gottem, everything is contained in all directions. Nature’s providence has supplied a relief valve of sorts, only as much blood as will fit will be in, and only at so much pressure. Such fluid pressure, of course, given that it expands somewhat larger inside than at the anterior opening, will not allow any movement in either direction. The head, as you can see is also contained and going nowhere, only the drain hole for the urine at that end. If you further observe, there are a pair of smaller sockets for the frenum barbel balls. This is to lock the penis into place. When not aroused, the organ is quite soft and flexible. Even though the geometry of the Gottem will prevent removal of the penis from the containment in most cases, still, it is like imprisoning an octopus. Amazing what tight spaces an octopus can squeeze through. With the frenum anchored down deep inside where it cannot be reached, no way. To back that up, we have tamper proofing protocols, which, as you can imagine, result in severe shock and burning sensations upon detection of any tampering effort. It is best to wait until release.”
“I like the stainless steel bars latticed across the drain hole.”
“Cuts down on unnecessary touching. Urine will flow through. Water can be squirted up with a dollar ninety-nine squirt gun. Good for cleaning. Water actually can flow along the inside surfaces and should be done for cleaning on a regular basis. Everything is waterproof, polyurethane, stainless steel, gold, and gaskets at all the joints. Just as a waterproof watch is simply one put together with a gasket.”
“I see a recharging hole on this top piece.”
“Accepts any standard cell phone recharging jack. Inside, we have shock signal generator, microchip, circuit board, GPS tracking, cellular phone type antenna, and other little goodies, all of which use electricity. Which has to come from somewhere. As an engineer, I have never been impressed with the logical thought processes of those who say electric powered cars are a solution to energy supply issues. Batteries no more supply electricity than a fuel tank supplies gasoline. They store the energy carrying juice, and need to be refilled as such energy is used. For our purposes, we are content to allow the power companies figure out how to supply the electricity. A standard cell phone recharger is how we connect the power utility with the lithium batteries in our Gottem.”
“So how do we get the client to recharge the batteries?”
“I am surprised you have not guessed the answer to that question. What does a smoke detector do when the batteries start to run low?”
Laughter filled the room. “He starts to get an annoying little shock the way a smoke detector pisses you off by chirping all the time.”
“Those little shocks will get much worse before they get better. He WILL plug in the recharger. You can tell him that he can do that once each evening before bed and once each morning before he goes to work to be on the safe side. Perfect for a good 24/7 experience that can be extended indefinitely.”
“What is this funny looking rectangle on the top surface of the top piece?”
“Fingerprint reader. You want to be keyholder?” Laughter. “Tired of forgetting where you left your keys? Afraid of losing them? When was the last time you forgot to bring your fingerprints?”
“The last time I had my hands locked in a pair of bondage mittens!”
“In which case you would need to be released before he can be released. There are an infinite variety of scenarios that can be programmed in. Go ahead, assemble the Gottem.”
The women assembled the Gottem. Being dominatrices, they have better mechanical aptitude than most women. “Now take it apart.” It came apart.
“My guess is that you need to apply the correct fingerprint to lock it on.” concluded one of the ladies.
“The one you programmed into it for that purpose.” I responded. “There is a temperature sensor. Body parts of a living person tend to be between 90 and 105 degrees Fahrenheit. It has to actually be on somebody before it will lock up. You could program it to lock upon the application of his own fingerprint as a consent protocol.”
“But once on, a different fingerprint to come off!”
“Naturally. Could program up to 12 different fingerprints, applied in a certain order within a minute or so, to release. Thus requiring the agreement of that many keyholders to release the subject. There are other release scenarios. You can program a set time during which no fingerprint can release, from a minimum of one minute to a maximum of two weeks, which can be extended by a deliberate decision on your part. There is a time delay protocol. Release will happen later. All the fingerprint will do is start a release clock. There is a window of opportunity protocol. A special signal will inform that subject that the device is now unlocked and he can take it off. However, if he waits a too long before taking it off, the window being as short as five seconds to as long as one day, it will lock back on. Thus, he himself can choose to extend the period of submission.”
“But what if during the time you have him under control, and you tie him to a bed or something and you want to bring Mr. Happy out to play?”
“Simple enough. You can program it that way if you want, it’ll be the most commonly used lock and release protocol, I would imagine. To lock on the first time, the temp sensor has to be reading between 90 and 105 degrees. This takes only a few seconds after assembly. He can walk around with it on, get used to it, make an adjustment if necessary, what with fit and any pinched skin, and then the locking fingerprint, which could be yours or his, depending upon the scenario you chose, is applied continuously for ten seconds. You will hear a little bell ring and a bunch of clicking. Now it is locked on. Later on, when you have his wrists manacled to the ceiling, he will have fully cooperated in that process I can assure you, you apply your fingerprint for three seconds, and it unlocks with some clicking. If that is the release protocol you programmed in. You disassemble and play with Mr. Happy. When you are done with Mr. Happy, you wipe him clean, assemble the device. As soon as the temp sensor reads past 90, apply your fingerprint and it locks on with the ding a ring and the clicking. When you are done with the scene, in 2019 perhaps, you merely take it off and then let it read your fingerprint for ten seconds. You are back to status quo ante. You can leave the disassembled device with him. You tell him that he is free to do with it as he pleases. But if he assembles it on and applies his fingerprint for ten seconds after the temperature sensor reaches 90 degrees, after a one week cooling off period so the decision is made with some thought, he will lock it on and will have placed himself, voluntarily, back in your control.”
“Cool.” All three breathed.
“Or you can keep the device and clear the programming for the next client. I would like to demonstrate the installation of the Gottem. Any of you mind if I drop my pants?”
“Of course not.”
I placed the parts around my scrotum and assembled. “Notice I have a barbell through a frenum piercing. I can place the barbell ends into these little receptacles. When the mechanism is locked, these receptacles will lock onto the barbell ends preventing them from slipping off and therefore the penis slipping out. I place the top part on over the penis like so. Right now I can easily disassemble. Note how the top part comes off. I put it back on. It seems fine, no need for adjusting. I wait a minute or two, while the temperature rises to my body temperature. I place my fingerprint here to be read. Here that ding? It is on.”
“So how does the tamper proofing work?”
“Well, one mechanism includes a fine metal mesh cast into the surface shells. Should I attempt to cut it with any kind of saw, the results will be like being hit with a police taser and a blowtorch right in my privates. Whoa! Nobody wants to experience that! The only way it is coming off is with the right fingerprint applied to the print reader, and that is assuming that we are not in a period of time where release is locked out.”
I turned my self to the side. “Note how the curved shape makes it so discrete. I pull up my underwear and my pants, and as you can see, if you did not know it is there, you do not know it is there. I can thus go out in public.” Pause. “If I am allowed, of course.”
I sat down at the computer table. “Let’s type in an obscure looking URL that only I know. And as you can see, two boxes appear and nothing else. There is no text on the page to show what it is, no keywords or metatags are written into the html coding of this page. Indeed, there is software written into the webpage that prevents the search engines such as Google and Yahoo! from finding this page. I type in the user id and the password, and we enter this site.”
“I see on the GPS map our precise location.”
“Yep, we can also see the heartbeat rate, breathing rate, estimated blood pressure, and body temperature in Fahrenheit. Could switch to Celsius, but why? Notice all of these control protocols we can choose. You can write your own and save them on this page and be ready to impose them. If you click VIBRATE, the Gottem would vibrate. Note the subject’s e-mail address. You can leave a message and you can program a way for the subject to verify reading the e-mail, whether the distance between you is a thousand feet or a thousand miles. You click the VIBRATE button, the subject is signaled to read the e-mail and to confirm reading it and you will have delivered your instructions. With these shock buttons labeled 1 through 10, your subject WILL follow the instructions. Without question or hesitation.”
“With the shock buttons you can immediately shock the subject and let him know you mean business.”
“Well, trust me, he will already know you mean business. But if he needs a reminder, a simple click of Level 1” I clicked it, “Eeee! That was me. But for reasons I will explain soon, if you click Level 3 or above, you get this little dialog window, ‘Are you sure?’ because it is intense.
“Now I will log off this website and close the Internet window, and clean out the Internet cache, clear the history, etc. because I am not stupid and will not let one of you take control of me. This is my presentation, not yours.”
Giggles. One of them observed, “This technology looks like it could be placed in all manner of lock on devices, not just this male chastity device you are showing us.”
“We have gauntlets that fit around your wrist. Some allow movement of the radius and ulna so you can turn your wrist, others are designed to lock your palms away from your face by restricting the movement of the radius and ulna. We have anklets that can be discretely hidden under boots or long pants. What I would love to demonstrate upon one of you is a kind of neck brace and collar that locks your head into position relative to your rib cage. Any volunteers?”
“I’ll do it.” confirmed the lady who asked about other types of devices.
“Okay. Let me get the tape measure.” I grabbed a tape measure off the computer table. “I’ll measure your neck circumference, at the collar bone, halfway, and at the jawbone. Sometimes they call a jawbone a mandible. I measure from one corner of the jawbone around the back to the other corner. Got it. Excuse me for a moment while I dig up the neck brace that fits closest to these measurements.”
I returned with two pieces of a space age neck brace. “Note the contact points on the inside. This is a control mechanism as well as a neck locking mechanism. Here, please hold this front piece in your lap while I lift up your hair to fit the back piece. Line up to each corner of the jawbone. Yes, it looks perfect.”
“My jawbone fits right into these corners. Locked on, I will not be able to turn my head, I would have to rotate my torso to look right and left.”
“That is correct. Please hand me the front piece. Line up the guide pins, push it together. There. Notice how the front piece extends down across the collar bones and no further. The back piece extends down between the shoulder blades. This allows breathing through expansion of the rib cage, even when there is an overbust corset laced tightly on. The upper part cradles the back of the skull and rests inside the corners of the jawbone. The front piece cradles the flesh between the corners of the jawbone and allows some freedom of movement so she can eat, speak, and breathe. Isn’t that right?”
“That’s right”
“To lock it on, I need only hold my fingerprint over this reader for ten seconds. But before I do, I need you to understand some things. Once I lock this on, you will be subject to control through the shocking device. With this and the other equipment within, I can command your complete and unquestioning obedience and cooperation with whatever I have you do or do to you. With the GPS tracker, I can restrict you to this house or require you to go to Spokane. I can send you instructions, signal you to check your e-mail, and require you to follow these instructions. The freedom you shall have is the freedom I choose to allow you, and no more. To avoid the signals it will send when the battery starts to run low, you will use the cell phone recharger once in the morning and once in the evening of each day. You will never attempt to remove the device through tampering or destruction, as the consequences are literally too painful to contemplate. And this level of control will continue 24 hours a day, 7 days a week until I, and I alone, choose to release you by pressing my fingerprint upon the reader for at least five seconds. This I can choose to do five minutes from now or five years from now. Do you consent to this?”
“Yes.” She giggled.
I pressed my fingerprint on the reader for ten seconds. We heard a click and a ding. “It is on. How does it feel?”
“I love it! The fit is incredible!”
“It would be even better if we built it from your measurements.”
“I’m sure it would. I have to bend over to look down. I have to turn my whole body to look right and left. With the change in perspective, I have to be careful walking until I get used to it. I love bondage, and this is great. I am sure my clients wil---!”
She stopped speaking abruptly. “Eh--!” She tried to whisper and stopped.
I explained. “This is a nice little introductory control protocol I like to use. The Gottem devices come with little microphones. When the human voice travels within the body, it has different tonal qualities than when it travels through the air. Indeed, for the remote devices, such as chastity and anklet, we can exploit the difference in the speed of sound within the body and through the air to identify which voice originates within the body it is attached to. Not necessary with the neck brace, as the subject’s voice signal is the strongest voice signal. Once it identifies the voice that originates within, it merely records the voice pattern. With this, silence control and other protocols can be imposed. For introductory purposes, I like to program it to automatically impose silence control upon recording the voice pattern of the subject. This includes whisper control, which means that whenever she attempts to whisper, she will experience Level 1 shocks, which, as you can see, were sufficient to shut her up. If she insisted on continuing to speak, she would start to experience higher levels of shock.”
She stood there blinking, a grin developed on her face. “I’m impressed” said one of the other ladies.
“Of course, I can vary the silence control considerably. I could allow her to whisper but not use voice. I could allow her to speak, but not the Seven Words. This is great for cleaning up the language. I can see why some think there is too much coarseness in our daily speech. I could allow her to speak French but not English. If she does not know French she would have to learn. Speaking of French, I could prohibit her from speaking the names of metric units, fine tuning it so she could say ‘telegram’ but not ‘milligram’ and she could say ‘speedometer’ but not ‘kilometer’. This really plays with the heads of Canadian subs. In the case of our volunteer from the audience, she is allowed to say only one word: ‘Yes’. You understand that you can say ‘Yes’?”
“Y-yes.” No shock.
“Right now, you can see the advantages this have over gags. The problem with gags is that every one of them restricts breathing through the mouth somewhat. Ball gags are probably safer than most because you can breathe, somewhat, around them. Almost every gag allows you to make muffled noises with your voice, a phenomenon that has landed more than one kidnapper under arrest. If you shut off breathing through the mouth, then the sniffles can cause the sub to snort snot all over the place!” Laughter! “Disgusting! And should the congestion block up both nostrils, we get asphyxiation. Brain starts to die. It just ruins the entire scene!”
“Yeah. I HATE it when that happens!”
“But as you can see, with a Gottem device, we can have perfect silence without any risk of asphyxiation. She can breathe quite normally through her mouth even if she has a cold or a pollen allergy. She is even free to blow her nose a lot. True, she can’t open her mouth all the way, and the first time she yawns will be quite an experience. But you are just not as likely to have to explain to a court of law why one of your clients suffocated while wearing a gag!”
“Not to mention being a guest of the Department of Corrections for the rest of your life.”
“I have some comments on that later. Now, on with the show. The speakers in the neck brace can also hear voices originating outside, just as you can hear such voices and noises. I programmed this particular device to recognize my voice pattern. I have programmed it to carry out certain functions when I give a coded command in my voice. Akita!”
She stiffened up quickly, her eyes popped wide open. The other ladies gasped.
“You realize that whenever I say that word, your will receive a Level 3 shock?”
“Yes!” How could she not realize that!
“But let me explain what happens with a Level 3 shock and higher. They go to Level 10. You realize I can voice command higher level shocks than that?”
“Yes.”
“What happens is that we don’t just use brute force with higher voltages and currents. That is too crude, and the higher the voltage and current, the more damage we can risk to the body. Burns and such. A tenth of an amp through the heart and it stops beating. No good. What we did instead was to use what medical science has found out about how pain nerves work.”
“Ohhh.” They were grasping the idea, one of the ladies was once a registered nurse. It is amazing how many are, not just wearing the white rubber costume.
“All nerves send signals through an electrical and chemical circuit. What makes sarin gas so deadly is that it is designed to interfere with the chemical reactions in the synapses and shut down nerve communication. Since you need your autonomous nerves to have normal heartbeat, blood flow, and breathing, you tend to die in a sarin attack. Those who survive sarin attacks tend to have messed up brains and nervous systems. Viagra and other such drugs are targeted toward the autonomous nerves that control blood flow into the blood sacks of the penis, creating an erection. Some pain killing drugs work by shutting down the chemical reactions in the synapses of pain nerves. Anesthesiologists in surgery rooms use drugs that are so similar in effect to sarin, they have to monitor the patient constantly to avoid killing him or allowing him to experience the pains of the operation.
“But the other way to control signal flow in the nerves, which as far safer than polluting the body with nerve specific drugs and poisons, is to affect the electrical aspect of nerve communication. You probably have had some fun with TENS units and violet wands.”
“Yes, we are familiar with them.”
“They are believed to have some effect on the electrical signals in the nerves, but then all shocks do. The reason the effects of a minor shock wear off so fast is because with the chemical balance of the nerves unaffected by drugs and poisons, the electrical balance within the nerve cells return to the normal at rest voltage of minus 70 millivolts, except for the normal signal traffic, which is supported by the at-rest voltage. What we did was to program our shock generator to generate patterns of voltages that mimic the patterns in pain nerves when they are signaling. Such voltages are quite low, much less than 70 millivolts in amplitude, but can cause you to have a sensation of your skin and meat on fire. At Level 3 there is only a touch of that. Much more than a touch at higher levels. That is why the control buttons on the computer result in ‘Are you sure?’ dialog boxes. At the end of the experience, the shock patterns includes a shut-off signal, which is why it ended as fast as it began. Is this an accurate description of what you just experienced? Sensation of fire that began and suddenly ended?”
“Yes.”
“Is it a sensation you do not wish to repeat?”
“Yes.”
“You realize I can voice command this sensation when you are in my presence?”
“Yes.”
“And that I can remote command it from any computer or other Internet connected device anywhere on the Planet Earth?”
“Yes.”
“Therefore, I can count on your complete obedience and cooperation with any request, instruction, thing that I do with you o to you, whether I am in the same room with you or in Sydney, Australia?”
“Yes.”
“You understand that when I explain a control protocol to you, and that it is signaled by Level 1 and 2 shocks and that should you ignore such signals, the protocol is programmed to graduate to Level 3 and above?”
“Yes.”
“Therefore I can count on your compliance with these control protocols?”
“Yes.”
“You understand that I can track your whereabouts to within a few feet with the Global Positioning System and use it to limit you to a particular location, such as this house, or use it to require you to go to a certain address anywhere I choose to direct you?”
“Yes.”
“You understand that with the speakers in the neck brace we can record all sounds and conversations you engage in for later review or in real time?”
“Yes.”
“And therefore I can control your behavior there. You will never know if you are being recorded, or when I am not listening, but if I signal you, then you know I might be listening?”
“Yes.”
“You understand that if I signal you with the vibration, I want you to check your e-mail as soon as possible and that I do not wish to wait.”
“Yes.”
“And that I can count on you to accurately and completely follow the instructions therein?”
“Yes.”
“You understand that one of the control protocols that is always on is the requirement to keep the batteries charged with the cell phone device?”
“Yes.”
“That to avoid problems I can count on you, twice a day, to plug the recharger in for at least 15 minutes?”
“Yes.”
“That you understand that should the battery start to run down, you will receive Level 1 and 2 signals at random intervals until you plug in the recharger, and that if you take too long to plug it in, you may receive a Level 3 signal?”
“Yes.”
“You understand that there are tamper-proofing protocols built in to deter any attempt to damage the Gottem device, or to defeat the locking mechanisms, and that these protocols include Level 10 shock and nerve stimulation, which has the affect of making you feel like your entire body is on fire, and that it paralyses your motor control nerves to keep you from thrashing about, leaving you with no choice but to lay there and enjoy the experience for as long as it takes, and that when it is over you must immediately plug in the recharger and that continued efforts to tamper with it will result in another Level 10 experience?”
“Yes.”
“I can therefore count on you to accept your status of being under my complete and total control, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, until such time as I, and I alone, choose to release you by holding my fingerprint on the fingerprint reader for at least 5 seconds, and that can be 5 minutes from now or five years from now?”
“Yes.”
“And that you consented to all of this before I locked the neck brace on you?
“Yes.”
“Excellent. Now please take off all of your clothes.” She immediately began to disrobe. “No need to hurry or be slow. Just remove them as you would when preparing to take a shower.”
“Yes.”
“No need to say ‘yes’. ‘Yes’ is when answering a question. It is not necessary for a command, because, of course, there is no question that you will obey.”
I noticed the lady on the opposite side of the room was wearing boots. “While she is taking it all off, I would like to demonstrate an ankle device to show that it is invisible under the leg of a boot.”
“You want me to put it on and be under your control?
“This is a sales demonstration. I wish to demonstrate my products.”
“Okay.”
“Please remove your boot from your right foot,” she took it off, “ and allow me to measure your ankle bones, the small of the ankle, your calf measurement and the length of the ankle area.” I took those measurements with the tape measure. “Now, please remove your nylon stocking from that leg while I fetch the anklet with the closest fit to your dimensions.”
I returned with two halves of an ankle Gottem. “All right, let’s put this on your right ankle.” It fit almost perfectly around the leg between the knobs of the tibia and fibula and the calf. This way it is locked on without interfering with the movement of the foot and ankle. “How does that feel?”
“It feels great.”
“Excellent.” I worked the computer and loaded another program and logged onto the website for the ankle device. “Please place your right forefinger to be read by the fingerprint device on the table.” She came forward to the computer table and placed her finger as directed. “There, all done, your finger is read.”
“Just like at the jail house.”
“Just like at the jail house. I punch a few buttons on the keyboard and click with the mouse a few times, and voila. You can now lock on your ankle bracelet by placing your right forefinger on the print reader for ten seconds. I programmed it so that only your right forefinger can activate the locking mechanisms. But once you do this, you cannot unlock it. Only I, and I alone, can release you from the anklet, which may be five minutes from now or five years from now. This is a consent protocol. Before you lock yourself in, you realize that you are consenting to all of the control protocols and to be under my complete control enforced by the shock mechanism, and that you will have to recharge it twice a day until I release you to avoid the intermittent shocks from a battery running low, and that you consent to everything that she consented to.”
“Yes, I realize this and I so consent.” She sat down and placed her finger on the fingerprint reader for ten seconds. It dinged and she was locked into the ankle bracelet.
“After you put your stocking and boot back on, please do, you will see that nobody can see that your have an ankle bracelet on.” When she was finished putting her stocking and boot on, I asked, “How does that feel and look?”
“Looks fine, feels fine.” She replied quickly. She looked like she did not want to speak.
“Please count backwards from 100.” She did not. “Shabazz.” I said in a normal tone of voice.
“Oh my God!” she exclaimed in reaction to the Level 3 shock sending waves of fire through her lower leg.
“What do you think?”
“Effective.”
“Do you still want to continue with the demonstration?” I did not need a lawyer to advise me to ask that question.
“Oh yeah. Sure. 100, 99, 98 . . .”
At about 86 she stopped abruptly as the silence control reacted to her voice pattern and kicked in. “Even though the device is on her ankle, it nevertheless can impose silence control. She cannot even whisper or say the word 'yes' without feeling at least a Level 1 shock. The advantage of the ankle bracelet of course, is that she can go to a job, provided that it is not something like a courthouse or airport with metal detectors or a defense contractor with all kinds of rules about using cell phones within. These devices are in essence, cell phones and they rely on the radio signal coverage of the cell phone service. We can set in an automatic timer that allows her to speak during the day for her job but shut off her mouth for the evening. The GPS control can keep her at home and allow her to go to work and nowhere else, unless I choose to have her somewhere else or send her on an errand. I can require that she obtain my permission to do anything outside of her prescribed area and schedule.” I then turned my attention to the woman with the collar on. She stood there naked, except for a well made, long term wear, stainless steel chastity belt. “Either of you ladies her keyholder?”
Both shook their heads no. I tapped the metal with a fingernail. “Imagine this with a fingerprint lock. I am surprised they don’t sell ‘em that way now. That way, you do not have to worry about your sub having a second key somewhere else. Please sit. We do offer such devices, in both male and female belts, with fingerprint locks and the Gottem control mechanism. The female belts use a probe inside the vagina, a Level 1 shock makes for a more intense experience. There are squirt holes that allow you to wash yourself, especially good for that time of the month. Sometimes a lady in a belt will test the mechanism and stroke the skin next to the steel to induce an orgasm. We can program a belt with a Gottem control mechanism to shock when it detects such activity and any muscular reactions to it. Your start to get an orgasm, you get a Level 1 or 2 signal to stop. The belts can be hidden under clothing and therefore the sub can go to work and enjoy a 24/7 experience. It is a bit more intense than the ankle bracelet, so you might want to use less intense controls first. We can make this from a set of measurements taken, or you can simply supply us with a chastity belt that you have already used, and we can take the measurements from that.”
I removed a plastic tube from a box on the desk. “You have heard of balloon catheters, I trust?” Smiles and nodding heads all around, of course. “This is one we make special for use with our chastity control devices, including the one I am wearing. Less than two inches total length for females, longer, of course, for males. It makes the experience that much more intense. The balloon expands inside the bladder keeping it from slipping out. At the other end, you see this flange, it neatly covers the head of the penis, the glans, or the clitoris, further reducing opportunities for stimulation. Within the flange, you see a thin copper wire, protected from corrosion by the soft flexible hypoallergenic plastic, wrapped around in a spiral coil. It receives the signal through induction, no need for positive electrical contact. Because the catheter goes all the way into the bladder, you can no longer control the urethra sphincter. In the hospital, these have a hand valve for releasing urine from inside, like a faucet. Here, we use a small solenoid valve. When installed with the chastity belt, the sub can use his fingerprint to empty his bladder. But sometimes, this does not work. Your sub is then instructed to check his e-mail and to follow instructions. When he has accomplished the task, you can allow him to pee.”
I then logged on to the URL for another device and entered the user name and password. Out of the computer speakers we heard some random noises and voices. Then: “How ya’ coming on the Flex Tite report?”
“Almost done, just give me another half hour, it should be ready to print out.” This voice was much louder and definitely female.
“Good job. Send it to me by e-mail when you’re done, we’ll then go over it.”
I then explained. “She has had a female chastity locked on to her for the past few weeks. She actually has gotten a raise, her boss is impressed. The reason, of course, is that she learned to take direction and determine exactly what someone is asking her, and then do it. Bosses like submissives who do what they’re told. I also cleaned up her language at work. The silence control automatically shuts off when she arrives at her office and turns back on when she goes home. During the day, she is shocked if she says any of the Seven Words in any context. I determined that her boss does not like her speaking on certain subjects, so I put in a keyword control that keeps her from discussing such matters. She can say ‘bush’ as long as she does not also say ‘george’, ‘president’, ‘iraq’, ‘social security’, ‘clinton’, ‘hilary’, ‘kerry’, ‘rumsfeld’, you get the picture. I was also able to determine the he does not like her speaking Spanish on the job. She is Hispanic, and of course, she can sue him if he discriminates against her for speaking Spanish, but why go there? So she can say ‘bravo’ and ‘arena’ as long as the surrounding words are English with English sentence structure. Latin sentence structure and conjugations of the verbs will get her zapped. She is free to speak Spanish off the job, if I let her, or even require her. But on the job, make the boss happy and everybody is happy. If the boss is not happy, nobody is happy. Fair or not, that is the way it is.”
The woman in the middle, with no devices on her, spoke. “Is this boss completely unaware of your control over his employee?”
“I believe he is. All he knows is that she never seems to swear, talk Spanish, or talk politics anymore. And she does her job. What more can he ask for? He loves it, even though he has not a clue as to why this is so!”
“Career management is one good use for this technology. How about a sub who wants to quit smoking?”
“Ending addictions is a real dicey proposition no matter how you do it. Unless you are a professional or have professional knowledge in treating addictions, I strongly recommend you don’t even try. But once you bought these things, it is up to you and your client. To do it, you have to bullshit the client into believing that you or the device will know if he lights up or snorts up. And then there are serious consequences. But the first time he caves in to his cravings he will know you are bullshitting him. That just ruins the entire experience. There are a lot of things you can do with this remote control. The GPS can allow you to require that he go to the park and jog around. This is good for imposing fitness on a couch potato. You can require that he purchase all of his groceries with a card and have access to his account so as to limit what he spends. You can try to keep him from getting beer, drugs, or cigarettes with the voice control and listening devices and punish him for violations. But the fact is, unless you are with him 24 hours a day, he can get the smokes. To determine tobacco or drug use, you have to sample his blood, urine, or sweat and analyze for the metabalites of these drugs. When a court orders you to provide urine samples for such analysis, it is processed by a lab to get a reading accurate enough to withstand a court challenge. Yes, the device is next to his skin, and yes, it is theoretically possible to design a means by which it can analyze the sweat for tobacco metabolites. But there is not enough room for me to install such technology in one of my lock on devices, and I would hesitate a long time before I would.”
“Why would you hesitate?”
“Once the device is off of him, is he over his addiction? Or her addiction, as the case may be. Or will your sub binge on the forbidden fruit you have denied him? What is so attractive about chastity and control fetishes, as you know, is how good the sex feels after you have been forcibly denied. That is fine for sex, but for alcohol, tobacco, and controlled substances? Besides, we are not in a business that makes us want to have contact with the police and the courts as much as possible. I would avoid addicts anyway, and if it is a legal substance like tobacco, I would let him smoke.”
“You’re right. You are absolutely right. Playing with addicts is asking for trouble. They are trouble, by definition.”
“Anyway, I have one more device to demonstrate this afternoon, would you like to try it on?”
“Sure. Why not?”
“All right. The three of you, come with me please.” I led them through a door into another room. “What do you see?”
“A pillory.”
“Some of us are into stocks and bonds. Please stand at the pillory. If you spread your feet, you can see where your ankles go.” She placed her ankles where I can lock them into position. I swung each wooden stock around and locked it. The seam went front to rear on each, the space in the middle was clear. That she had shoes and socks on did not matter, she was not able to pull her feet out. I lifted the top half of the pillory stock to reveal the wrist and neck holes. “What do you see in the neck hole?”
“I see a bunch of spring loaded contact points like we see with you other devices.”
“That is exactly what they are. Only they are made much longer to guarantee contact with your neck skin no matter how you move. Please place your hands and neck into the pillory.” She did and I locked the top half of the pillory down, freezing her in position. “How does it feel?”
“Feels like any other pillory, only I can feel all of these steel fingers touching my neck. They are all spring loaded. I understand that as long as I don’t talk, I don’t activate the silence control mechanism, but if I talk, I ____.” It shocked her.
“Because you are not going anywhere, this is a much simpler device. It merely records the voice pattern of the subject within and then imposes silence control. Either you don’t talk, or it gives you a Level 1 or 2 to stop you from talking. Either way, you don’t talk. There is whisper control too. You, with you clothes on, please crouch down between her legs and place your face where you can give her head. You, with collar and belt, stand here right behind her. Place your belly up against her back. Now, reach around and with your hands, grab a firm hold of her breasts.”
I stood there a minute admiring the pose. “All right, demonstration is over. You can see how I could order you to do whatever I want you to do.” I placed my finger on fingerprint reader of the collar and removed the collar. “You are now free to put your clothes back on and look at the order forms.” I unlocked the pillory and let its occupant go back and look at those order forms.
“And you all squatted down there, let's get you out of that ankle bracelet and give you the order forms.”
Back in the other rooms, they were placing their orders. The one with the chastity belt on had only some of her clothes on, she was so eager. They had the measurement information of some of their subs. “Come on, lets get that ankle thing off, I need it back. Some last minute warnings, disclaimers, etcetera, I have to say these things, you understand. You should not go into a 24/7 right away. Try it for a weekend and then let him out for the week. Limit this to weekends until you both feel comfortable with this. This is a real intense control experience. You will have to make sure that you have consent all the way. If he is paying you a ton of money, obviously that is one way of establishing consent. You can have him sign a release or a contract, not that either of you will ever want to submit it to a court of law. But the law is dicey on this, if a contract is contrary to public policy it is void and unenforceable. Slavery and prostitution contracts can be that way. The minute you think your sub is not having fun, release her. If you guessed wrong, she can always clamp it back on and use her fingerprint to lock and therefore grant you continued consent for your little power exchange game. Oh man! You sure you have enough money to pay for all of this?”
“No problem!”
This is just going to make me rich! I know it is!
