An Austrian woman got creative in attempts to make some money.

To sadomasochists keen on fresh air and the country life, it must have seemed like a dream come true. A 35-year-old woman advertizing herself as a dominatrix promised strict discipline to paying clients on her farm in the northeast of Austria.

Some 15 men responded to the advert posted in the Internet, and two or three took up the offer. "They didn't get what they bargained for," a spokesman for the Lower Austria police told SPIEGEL ONLINE, confirming reports in the Austrian media in recent days.

Instead of savoring the sweet pleasure of pain, the men found themselves consigned to farm labor such as chopping wood in the nude and mowing the lawn while wearing black fetish masks on the farm near the town of St Pölten. In effect, they were paying for the privilege of doing farm work.

Duped

"They had these clothes one wears in such circles, leather and plastic clothes and masks," said the spokesman.

1. One more creative way to exploit fellow human beings

Still shaking head - slavery is slavery.

2. bdsm is Safe, Sane and most importantly, Consentual.

You would be amazed at what's going on in the BDSM world.

All legal and fun, as long as its consentual. A good part of the Doms(es) use written contracts, with limits and boundaries, so that the subs can't cry abuse or worse later, if the relationship falls apart.

3. Would it have killed her to spank one of them each night?

I bet if she had, they would have stayed at least a month, and worked even harder.

5. Exactly.

6. Not everyone is in it for the pain.

Some like losing complete control ( having to ask for permission to use the bathroom, etc ) , and others like the humiliation part.
Spanking/pain inflicting might have been irrelevant in this case. Unless she was a lazy domme and didn't keep her end of the bargain.

9. With all that extra help on the farm, she should have had the energy to do SOMETHING...

... to keep them happy.

10. Plus all pain is not created equal

There's an art to it, at least that's what my pet says.

13. Slavery is slavery...and this isn't slavery.

The generally accepted definition of slavery is "Involuntary subjugation to another or others." There are many more elaborate and specific definitions, but all boil down to that simple idea. You, as a person, are subjugated to another against your will or without your consent.

In this case, the men not only willingly subjugated themselves to the woman, but they were free to leave a week later when they grew tired of the servitude and no longer wanted to participate. Their subjugation was entirely voluntary and they retained their freedom to end it without penalty. While the concept of domination may be offensive to some people, this situation fails to satisfy even the most basic definition of slavery because it was entirely consensual.

4. No victims here. It's not like they were chained and drugged.

Really. This should be about the men who agreed to do it.
Tools. Duped? More like stuped. I can hear them now, where does the sex come in?

7. This thread is useless without pictures!

7. It's going to be a case study at Harvard Business School.

The next big thing...not just free labor...labor that pays for the pleasure of work.

Genius!

12. Reminds me of the movie, "Personal Services"

About a British woman who falls on hard times and becomes a dominatrix in charge of a brothel (based on a true story). At one point when she was just getting started and was unsure of her role, a lot of her slave clientele were sprucing up the property that was to become the brothel, and one of them came up to her to arrange payment, and she was surprised and complained to her friend next to her about how they were slaves and shouldn't expect to be paid, and the man informed her that the slaves wanted to know how she wanted to be paid for allowing them to work for her.

Starred the woman who played Ron Weasley's mother in the Harry Potter films - Julie Walters.
