branding of submissive people

The branding of submissive people, also known as body modification BDSM, refers to a practice within the BDSM (bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism) community where a mark, typically a symbol or decorative pattern, is permanently burned into the skin of a consenting submissive person. This can be done through various methods such as hot iron branding or tattooing with a specialized machine designed specifically for this purpose. The brand serves as a visible signifier of the individual's submission and their commitment to their Dom(me) or Master/mistress. Branding should always be performed by trained professionals who prioritize safety and consent throughout the entire process.
