In my opinion, 24/7 dynamics are by nature toxic and not compatible with ssc.

I know every 24/7 dynamic is very individual. In this discussion I'm not talking about the dynamics where the sub has to wear a discreet collar 24/7 or has to do regular tasks that are inconsequential and should just underline the powerplay.

What I am talking about are dynamics where the dom makes decisions for the sub that have real life consequences. For example, when the dom makes decisions like whether the sub can go out with friends tonight or not, or how much money the sub is allowed to spend per month.

In my opinion, every adult should take responsibility for his own life and should never give that responsibility away. Even if it feels very good to be relieved from your responsibilities, there is no way this can happen responsibly. Humans make tons of bad life decisions every day, but by doing so and having to deal with the consequences, eventually we learn and grow as people. Giving your decision-making away also takes away the opportunity to develop yourself. And this is worse than the dumbest decision you could make on your own. And this is why (in my opinion) you should never give that freedom away or take it from another person. Even when it feels really good.

Feel free to disagree. I am not omniscient and this post should not be seen as a matter of fact, but rather be one side of a conversation. I hope I didn't offend anyone and if so, I would like to apologize.
