i will communicate with complete honesty my needs, desires, limits, and experience. I realize that failing to do so will not only prevent my Master/Mistress and I from having the best experience possible, but can also lead to physical and emotional harm. i will not try to manipulate my Master/Mistress. i will not push to make a scene go the way i feel it should I will keep an open mind about trying things that i am not accustomed to or comfortable with and expanding my  limits. i will continue to grow as a submissive and as a human being. i will accept the responsibility of discovering what pleases my Master/Mistress, and will do my best to fulfill His/Her wishes and desires. i will not allow myself to be harmed or abused, i know that submissive does not equal "doormat". i will be courteous and helpful to my fellow submissive, i will share my knowledge and experiences with others in the hope that they will learn from where i have been I will take the time to help those new to the scene start out on the correct path.

i will be responsive to my Master/Mistress, i will not try to hide what my mind and body are feeling so that i may assist Him/Her in His/Her responsibilities as my Authority, i know that Dom(me)s are not telepathic, and will not expect my Master/Mistress to know thoughts or feelings which i do not share. i will never think myself a "better" submissive because i choose to submit on a different level than another. i will not be boastful of experiences i have had as a sub. i know that my actions reflect upon my Master/Mistress, and will do my best to help others see Him/Her in a positive way, i will not intentionally embarrass or displease my Master/Mistress.

Above all, i will wear my title of submissive with honor, i will never cause others to think that being submissive means to be weak or sub-human. i will take pride in who and what i am, and will never show myself in a negative way.
