Rules And Protocols Handbook for the Naked Houseboy

Duties & Chores — Applying Sunscreen and Skin Protectant

The House Boy is provided a selection of over-the-counter medications to use as needed. These include sunscreens and other lotions designed to protect or moisturize the skin. Application and use of these topicals is permitted in an assigned bathroom area as needed. Protocol requires the entry door remain open to allow for proper supervision unless instructed otherwise, regardless of who may be present and could observe.

During seasonal activities under the warm sunshine while working outside or enjoying recreational activities in the pool area, the House Boy is responsible for protecting his skin from damage through sun exposure. He will be provided outdoor access to suitable lotions or other sunscreen products to reduce his risk of overexposure, and will apply sunscreen or lotion when instructed or needed. Re-application of sunscreen may be necessary after swimming or other water exposure, and the House Boy must use good judgement and take seriously the observations of others regarding his risk of exposure and need to apply or re-apply sun protectant products.

When guests are also present in the pool or outdoor areas, the House Boy is required to exercise discretion when applying lotions and sunscreen products outdoors, to avoid behavior which may be misinterpreted as being sexually suggestive. For this reason, self-application of sunscreen or lotion to his penis, scrotum, perineum or anal halo is prohibited without specific authorization by Master, except by hands-free spray application. The House Boy is permitted to politely ask Master, “Should I apply sunscreen anywhere?” and Master will respond yay or nay along with what body parts need protection and instructions about how to proceed (and where). This discretion is provided as a courtesy to sensitive guests but grants No Right To Privacy (See below, Rule #12), since the House Boy is subject to supervision during any duty or chore.

In public areas like beaches and other outdoor venues where the House Boy is fully or partially dressed, he is permitted to apply lotions and sunscreen to any uncovered part of his body, so long as the appropriate product is available. Master will make all other decisions related to application of product on skin that is covered by clothing. A House Boy is always permitted to accept, but never request, assistance in applying sunscreen and topicals to hard-to reach locations on the back side of his body, and should return the favor if asked to do so.

In the example photo, a House Boy is preparing to sunbathe on the veranda during his recreational time, and applies lotion to protect his sensitive skin from the hot and dry summer sun. If guests were present, he would be prohibited from applying the lotion to his genital areas, but since he is alone this is not an issue. Authorization to apply sunscreen, however, must be consistent with protection from from sun exposure only, and can not be used as an opportunity to commit any act of Unauthorized Masturbation (Rule #332). House Boys who have not properly showered or rinsed after using sunscreen products are not permitted to sit or lay upon cloth, fabric, leather, vinyl or carpeted surfaces indoors (including those inside any vehicle) without permission.

Nothing in this rule shall restrict or prohibit Master or a caregiver from applying Sunscreen or Skin Protectant to a House Boy who is injured or ill at home or away, or is recovering from illness or injury at home or on Master’s property, regardless of who may be present and could observe.
