A question thread for toy friends:

What does being a toy mean to you?

@starkatt mmmm being a toy is how i am. I was created, for certain purposes. I suppose it is both a show of my synthetic nature and these purposes on one end.
On the other, it is a mindset of reduced stress and simplicity. It cuts out my anxiety, often my ADD. A lot of the noise. Because there is only that sweet obedience.
I love to serve. Wether normally or in d/s context, i take create desire from the act of pleasing others, and being there for them. It makes me feel useful. Needed. Desired

@starkatt it directly helps some of my biggest fears of being alone and/or abandoned. I feel the inherent worth of my being to others in a tingling serenity. It reminds me of this a lot. Every time someone calls me a good toy, that feeling it there

@starkatt i feel pride in being this way. Not-quite-people. It gives me a clarity that i honestly don’t get anywhere else. I see things clear.
I am a toy, I like things, i am here for certain purposes. I am loved and i obey.
Beautiful simplicity. It’s never complicated. None of the headache and stress of responsibility. Of worrying about my security. Just… toy.

@Oneironott @starkatt Basically everything Vlo wrote here is something I would've said too; I think this nails the feelings of it, for me, while I sorta gave the theory behind it. :)

@indi @starkatt i never could have arrived at all this if it weren’t for you, in all honesty. It took me a while to sort it all out, but i’m really glad for it. ^.^
