Don people need timeouts in any long term relationship?
Some do, some don’t. The submissives described by the Enslavement Hypothesis need to be under their master’s authority all the time, but this isn’t to say that they should be following detailed commands and living under continuous direct supervision all the time: in a relationship which nurtures the slave and promotes her growth as a valuable piece of property, it is necessary that she have times to express her creativity, to spend time with family and friends and even just to rest. These needs are not incompatible with her overwhelming need to be owned.
