Introduction:
During a particularly deep (and hot!) free-association talk with a lover about his sexual
fantasies, I was somewhat surprised to hear him volunteer an intense interest in becoming
my menstrual slave. After some probing questions, I realized that this was more than just
a verbal fantasy for my lover, and that he wanted to serve as my menstrual slave during my
period. "Umm, okay... where do I begin?" I thought to myself.
After some very carefully-constructed queries on several search engines yielded nothing
but membership applications for sex sites, I decided to start from scratch. With limited
time for research, I gave great thought to the subject and began to make preparations. The
article and sample documents below are the result of my exploration of menstrual slavery
with my lover.
WARNING: As with any exchange of body fluids, activity with the menstrual flow is to be approached with caution. Unless the submissive is absolutely certain that Mistress is free from HIV, hepatitis (in all its strains), and other STD's and blood-borne pathogens, I personally consider it VERY DANGEROUS to play with her menstrual blood. While HIV is a relatively fragile virus and dies quickly, hepatitis can linger in droplets of dried fluids for days! THINK ABOUT SAFETY BEFORE YOU PLAY.
Why menstrual slavery?
What appeal does menstrual slavery hold? Many women grow up with the unfortunate
experience of having been taught, either directly or by observation of others' reactions,
that menstruation is to be regarded with fear, distaste, annoyance, or a combination of
these reactions. For some women, this has tainted their view of a completely natural
function of their bodies and sexuality, turning the menses into an ordeal to be dreaded
rather than appreciated. And often, such an attitude transfers to the woman's partner.
But by involving one's sub/slave partner, the menses becomes a special time between
the two, whereby both Domme and sub/slave can come to understand, appreciate, and enjoy
this part of her sexuality.
In order for you to get the most out of your slave, I think it's important to consider why
you and/or he find it arousing, so that you can maximize your treatment of him. Here are
some possible "draws" to menstrual slavery for your slave boy:
1. Humiliation: Your sub/slave may find the humiliation of play with your soiled menstrual
paraphernalia an intense reminder of how completely he is controlled by you.
2. Intimacy: For many women, the menses is a personal time. Your sub/slave may find that
the privilege of being allowed to participate in your period is a very intimate way for
the two of you to connect.
3. Worship of Femininity: The menses is wholly feminine. It's another affirmation of the
glorious differences between the sexes. Most likely, your sub/slave adores these
differences, revels in your femininity, worships it.
4. Feminization: If your sub/slave enjoys being feminized, this is a way for him to live
vicariously through you. (Suggestions on ways to involve your sissy-sub/slave are included
later.)
5. Blood Appeal: If you and your sub/slave enjoy blood sports, menstrual slavery is a
natural extension of that interest.
6. Mysticism/Taboo: In many cultures, the menses is mystical, possibly to the point that
it is a cultural taboo. Our cycles correspond almost exactly to the phases of the moon;
some cultures and religions hold that women become more powerful during their "moon
time" or have supernatural abilities, and the blood of a menstruating woman may be
considered sacred. Perhaps the spiritual aspect of your relationship may be explored
through your sub/slave's menstrual servitude.
Duties of the menstrual slave:
What does a menstrual slave do? Hmmm... just about anything you can think of for him to
do! Some ideas (season to taste):
1. The slave will (after consulting with Mistress as to her personal preferences) purchase
all pads, tampons, Midol, wet-wipes, douches, etc., that are required to care for Mistress
during her period.
2a. The slave is responsible for attending to Mistress's personal hygiene during the
duration of her period. This includes following Mistress (on hands and knees) into the
bathroom when she uses it and will kneel before her as she uses the toilet. The menstrual
slave will check, by sight and by questioning whether she feels the need to have her pads
or tampons changed, how she desires to be cleaned (tongue, wash cloth, wet-wipes, douche,
etc.), and checking to see if she needs new panties.
2b. If Mistress and her slave are in public (restaurant, theatre, etc.) when she uses the
bathroom, the slave will follow her to the door of the bathroom, kissing Mistress's hand
as a sign of respect, before she enters the bathroom. The slave will wait at the door of
the restroom, until Mistress emerges, where he will greet her with another kiss of her
hand. (Or substitute any other appropriate show of devotion.)
3. Mistress's panties, if soiled with blood, are to be hand-laundered by the slave.
4. The slave is to pay extra-special attention to Mistress's breasts and abdomen, and will
tend to any discomfort she may be experiencing. The slave may suggest gentle massage,
heating pads, ibuprofen, soothing drinks, etc. for Mistress's comfort.
5. If Mistress keeps track of her period on a calendar or planner, it is the slave's duty
to record the start date, end date, and make any daily notes regarding amount of flow,
special pain or sensitivity Mistress feels, swelling or bloating, body temperature,
menstrual headaches, moods, sexual energy, or any other special charting Mistress wishes
to have recorded for medical or fertility purposes. (More great ideas for documenting your
period here!!! http://coolgold.com.au/~imacleod/keeptrack.html)
6. If Mistress uses the birth control pill, she may require her slave to feed it to her
daily at an appointed time.
7. The slave will create a menstrual kit to be carried when away from home. The kit may
include items such as pads, tampons, disposable douches, Wet Wipes, panties, K-Y or
Astroglide and food dye (see #8 in Privileges/punishments section), red nail polish, a red
ribbon or string, a red marker, Midol or ibuprofen, latex gloves if applicable, spare
birth control (hormonal supplements) if applicable, spare hand towel, etc. This can be
packed in a small duffel bag, diaper bag, or another bag with compartments. (A red bag
would be fun!)
8. The slave will keep his own special "period panties" to be worn during the
duration of Mistress's period, out of respect for this special time.
9. The slave will conduct online research into the menstrual cycle, to gain a better
understanding of Mistress's health and menstrual experience. (See "Resources"
for some URL's to get him started).
10. Sheets and bedding will be cleaned by the slave. If Mistress enjoys blood play during
her period, a rubber sheet may be used to keep the mattress from staining during sex and
sleep.
Privileges/punishments for your
menstrual slave:
Depending on your personal viewpoint, and your sub's affinity or distaste for the
following activities, these suggestions may serve either as privileges or as
punishments. Tweak these ideas to your liking:
1. When attending to Mistress's needs in the bathroom, the slave will kiss the pad each
time Mistress's panties come down. When Mistress uses a tampon, the slave will briefly
suckle on the string.
2. The slave will lick Mistress clean of blood (optional: and urine) when she is finished
using the bathroom--or at any time of her spontaneous choosing.
3. The slave will wear a red ribbon around his wrist during the entire duration of
Mistress's period as a reminder to him of his position as Mistress's period slut. (If
asked about this in public, the slave may make whatever explanation Mistress has told him
to give--or better, leave it up to him to make an excuse. That's his worry, not
Mistress's.)
4. Mistress may mark her slave with her blood to remind him of his servitude. (A
well-saturated tampon works well as a "magic marker"!) The forehead, chin, and
lips are good candidates for such marking, as are the chest, abdomen, pubic mound, back,
and buttocks.
5. Mistress may collect her blood to be mixed into the slave's drink/food, or to be
consumed by itself (see the Resources list for a device to collect menstrual blood).
6. Mistress may give the submissive her used tampon to suckle as a pacifier or lollipop
(or freeze it and serve it to him as a popsicle!).
7. The slave may be gagged with Mistress's used pads (check first to make sure the lining
is intact, so none of the padding is accidentally inhaled).
8. Mistress may require her slave to have a "sympathy period." The slave wears
pads in his underpants/panties, and/or tampons (lubricated, otherwise the cotton may stick
and shred) in his ass during the duration of Mistress's period. Further, Mistress may
choose to simulate menstrual flow in the slave by coating his cock and balls with honey,
K-Y or Astroglide, or similar sticky substances. (Bonus: add food coloring! Be
careful about staining clothing in case of leaks.)
9. The slave may be required to wear Mistress's own soiled pads and tampons.
10. Mistress may have her period slut kneel before her used pads/tampons and masturbate to
climax upon them. (Variation 1: the slave must then wear the pad/tampon.) (Variation 2:
the slave must lick his cum from the pad/tampon.)
11. For humor or humiliation, after using a pad, Mistress may carefully remove the pad and
re-stick it upon the slave's body (the forehead is nice).
12. The slave may be marked with a red pen or marker on the hand, arm, or other visible
areas, to be worn in public. The marking may be a symbolic letter ("P" for
period, punishment, privileged; "S" for sub, slave, or slut; etc.) or word
("bad," "good," etc.). For added intensity, write something explicit
on the slave's upper arm, where it will be covered by a shirt sleeve while he is out, but
has the delicious possibility of being discovered ("blood slut," "fuck
toy," "period sissy," etc.).
13. Mistress may choose to have her slave serve other BDSM friends who are experiencing
their menses. [NOTE: See WARNING above concerning safety considerations involved
with blood play!!!]
14. Mistress may send her slave out in public (to the store to buy tampons) with his mouth
stuffed with a tampon. If the slave opens his mouth, he risks discovery.
15. The slave may have to wash out used tampons to be recycled for Mistress to use on him.
16. Mistress may paint one or all of the slave's toenails a bright blood-red to remind him
of his servitude.
17. Mistress may call her slave by special names during her period: blood slut, rag-head,
red dick, Bloody Mary, etc.
18. If the slave works outside the home, Mistress may request him to come home over lunch
or dinner break to clean her and change her pads or tampons, and/or to undergo any
humiliation she may enjoy watching. (Drop to his knees upon entering the apartment/house
and masturbate while licking her bloody pussy, etc.)
Suggested materials:
1. Obviously, whatever pads and/or tampons you use. You may want to jot these down on a
notecard for your slave if he is responsible for getting them at the store.
2. Wet Wipes, Baby Wipes, or similar. When my slut wasn't cleaning me with his mouth, I
found the Wet Wipes to be really handy. It doesn't dissolve upon contact with blood and
fluids like toilet paper can, it's easily disposable, I felt cleaner, it was soothing, and
it was pleasantly scented.
3. Douches, if you use them.
4. Stain-remover and Woolite (or another hand-wash detergent) so that your slave is
equipped to wash out any blood-stained panties.
5. An old, absorbent towel to protect furniture or carpeting from your blood while you're
playing.
6. A red ribbon, yarn, or thread with which to mark your slave during the duration of your
period, if you so desire.
7. K-Y, Astroglide, honey, or any other sticky substance with which you may wish to coat
your slave's genitalia, if you choose to have him participate in a "sympathy
period" with you. (See "Privileges/punishments," #8.) A few drops of red
food dye are optional.
8. A special duffel bag or other bag, if Mistress desires the slave to make a "period
kit" for travelling.
How to introduce your sub to menstrual
slavery:
Of course, you COULD just spring all of this on him, with no prior discussion. But in the
opinion of the author, before trying something that may be totally out of his experience
(he may not even have thought about it before), the loving thing to do is discuss his
feelings about the matter. Especially where blood is concerned, he may have hard limits.
Find out. If the idea appeals to him, probe deeper. Find out what he thinks would be
especially erotic, and incorporate some of that into your play. After all... if he
absolutely HATES every single minute of it... where's the fun for you?
Sometimes talking about the idea of menstrual slavery will add a delicious element of
anticipation to the impending date of his Mistress's flow. If he doesn't already know your
start date, you may wish to tell him, so he can faithfully keep track of the days until
you start.
Conversely, if he doesn't know your start date, you may NOT wish to tell him. This makes
the prospect seem a little more spontaneous, and you have the upper hand with the element
of surprising him. Imagine coming home one afternoon (or having him come home) and saying
"Come with me into the bathroom. No, on your hands and knees. Today is a special
day."
My situation was similar to the one I just offered. My slut knew that he was going to be
my period slave, but he didn't know my exact start date. While he was at work (I happened
to be home all day), my flow started. I had a few hours to write a letter and make some
plans for the scene which would occur when he walked through the apartment door after
work. It went something like this...
Sample scene: Introduction into
menstrual slavery:
Preparations:
I had already used one pad during the morning/afternoon, which I wrapped in saran wrap and
put in the fridge to keep "fresh" for later use while I started another pad. I
wrote my introductory letter and prepared the red thread that would be tied around his
wrist for the duration of my period. I put the letter and thread in an envelope and left
it on a chair I placed right inside the doorway, so he absolutely couldn't miss it when he
came in from work. The outside of the envelope was marked, in bright red letters,
"READ ME." A few minutes before he was to come home, I took the used pad from
the fridge and went to wait for him in the bathroom. In those few minutes before he opened
the door, I mentally ran through how I wanted to proceed.
The scene:
I heard the door unlock. I heard him opening the letter. There was absolute silence while
he read the letter. It was positively delicious. I could practically *feel* him trembling
with anticipation and anxiety, even in the other room. The letter read:
[page 1]
Read the enclosed letter.
If you agree, repackage these things in the envelope and bring it to me on your hands and
knees...naked.
If you do not agree, call to me by name. We will discuss the reasons why you feel this
way.
If you need time to consider, come to me, dressed and on your feet, with the envelope in
hand.
Think about it carefully.

<name of sub or term of endearment>,
For the next several days, you will commit yourself to being my menstrual slave. Your
purpose will be to pay homage to my womanhood as though it were your own, for I chose to
share this with you. This is my gift to you, but it has a price. If you choose now to
submit to this gift, then you accept the following duties which befit a period slut:
1. You will accompany me to the bathroom at all times unless otherwise instructed. If we
are in public, you will accompany me to the door of the ladies room, where you will kiss
my right hand. You will wait there until I emerge, at which time you will greet my return
with another hand-kiss.
2. In the apartment, you will sit at my knee while I use the toilet.
3. You will acknowledge your submission as my menstrual slave by kissing my pad each time
my panties come down, or if I am wearing a tampon alone, by fetching the string with your
mouth and suckling it briefly.
4. It is the menstrual slave's duty to change my pads and tampons when I require clean
ones, and to wash out my panties by hand.
5. When I am finished at the toilet, you will clean me with your mouth unless otherwise
instructed.
As my period slut, you may benefit from the following privileges at my discretion:
1. You may be marked (either visibly or under your clothing when in public) by the blood
of my womanhood upon your skin.
2. You may be allowed to wear my pads in your panties.
3. You may be allowed to wear my tampons in your slutty hole.
4. You may be allowed to service me sexually as I bathe your cock
with my menstrual blood.
My dirty-sweet one, I know this has been your fantasy for some time. Now we make it
reality. You may find your service exciting, humiliating, or distasteful at different
times--or perhaps concurrently. And you will share these feelings with me, for while you
serve as my very own menstrual slave, your feelings, as well as your body, as mine.

A few moments later, I heard him disrobe. He came crawling into the
bathroom as instructed, the letter tucked in his mouth. I sat on the toilet, in my bra and
panties. I couldn't help but smile with affection for him--he looked so darlingly
submissive. What followed went something like this:
"You read the letter, and you're here. Do you understand the terms of the
letter?" He nodded. I went over his duties again, briefly, anyway. I wanted to make
sure he knew exactly what he was in for, and precisely what I expected of him. I knew that
he wanted this, but I also could sense from his posture and respiration that he was was
experiencing that wonderful mixture of intense arousal and tremendous anxiety.
I took the red thread from the envelope and held it before him. I patronized him just a
little: "Do you know what this is for?" He did: he was to be marked. "And
why do you suppose it's red?" He replied, "The blood, My Lady." I explained
that during the entire duration of my period, he would wear the thread around his wrist as
a symbol of this new dimension of servitude, and that it would remain there until I
removed it. After it was tied, I looked into his eyes, then held him close for reassurance
for a moment before I proceeded.
I took down my panties to my ankles. He looked up at me. "Go ahead," I said,
pointing to the pad on the panties, and he knelt and kissed the pad. "Thank you, My
Lady," he said. The quiver in his voice was precisely what I'd hoped for.
Next, I took the prepared pad (the one that had been in the fridge), and wrapped it around
itself, blood side out. "Open your mouth." He opened his mouth beautifully,
accepting the gag.
[If you gag your slave with your pad... watch his face as he orients himself to the full
odor of your blood and secretions. It's marvelous.]
Stepping out of my panties, I ordered him to masturbate upon the pad while wearing the
gag. While he was masturbating, I came around behind him and marked a large "S"
for "slave" on his bare back with my blood (I took a Polaroid of it for him to
view later during afterplay), telling him what a dirty, slutty sissy he was (obviously
dirty talk is part of our play). It didn't take long for him to climax--hard! *grin*
I removed the gag pad from his mouth, and wrapped my arms around him, praising him
for his performance.
Slapping him on the rump, I told him to go fetch a pair of his panties. I put the pad, on
which he'd just masturbated, into his panties and told him that he would wear the pad
until the next morning. I leaned close to him and whispered, "This time, you have a
choice. You may clean me with your mouth, or with a warm wash cloth."
[Something to consider: the odor and taste of the gag, while pleasurable for him, may be
intense the first few times. Following a gagging scene by demanding to be cleaned with his
mouth may very well make him nauseated.]
He cleaned me with the wash cloth, changed my pad, and pulled up my panties. Affectionate
praise and reassurance followed... he was emotionally and physically drained. But the
preparation had been worth it. His initiation into menstrual slavehood had been one of our
most mentally and emotionally intense scenes.
