I am wondering if anyone in this tantra community has come across 'Code d' Odalisque' which is described as a *new codificastion of the traditional institution of odalisque or female sexual servant...* It is usually placed in the BDSM category, but in fact it has a strong tantric dimension.
Here is a brief intro:
Code d’ Odalisque is an alternative genre of adult slave play for both casual role-players and people seeking a lifestyle. It is an alternative to the familiar whips-and-dungeons style of slave play common in BDSM scenes. It offers a non-violent style of consensual slavery not based in sado-masochism. It revives the institution of “odalisque” - the pleasure slave - and draws upon the sensual slave traditions of the orient for its inspiration. An odalisque is a female slave who is preserved from labour and toil in order to devote herself to sexual service. She is not a cook or cleaner, not a maid or houseslave. Instead, she serves her Master’s bed as a dedicated bedroom slave.
The “Code” is a complete written system of manners and etiquette that sets out the rights and obligations of an odalisque. It was first compiled by contemporary couples who were dissatisfied with what the BDSM scene was offering. They wanted a sensual, non-violent erotic style of slavery for women who enjoy being used sexually but who aren’t into whips, wracks and grunge. The writers of the “Code” have taken ideas from the traditional institution of “odalisque” and combined them with a sense of modern, hardcore sexuality. The “Code” offers a complete “quasi-legal” codification of the odalisque’s life with an emphasis on consent, safety and legality. It includes a comprehensive system of slavetraining.
Today there are couples throughout the world who have adopted Code d’ Ode as either an adult “game” or as a way of life. The Code and all supplementary information is offered free to any interested adult.
