Rules And Protocols Handbook for the Naked Houseboy

Master’s Philosophy — Appropriate Terminology

The conduct and behavior of the House Boy reflects directly on the training and standards that Master establishes in his home environment. Master’s home is a social place, and gentlemanly behavior when interacting with others is expected and customary. This extends to travel away from home, and Master strives to set a gentlemanly example by choosing to use Appropriate Terminology whether at home or away. Any usage of gutter language or slang words and phrases by the House Boy without specific authorization is a violation of this rule and subject to discipline.

Every prospective House Boy is furnished a copy of the Appropriate Terminology Chart prior to his Pre-Collaring Interview And Inspection, and a physical copy of the chart is always available for viewing in Masters home. While the words and phrases listed in the chart are not the only suitable terms which can be spoken by the House Boy, the chart provides a guide and assurance that the House Boy will not be subject to discipline for using any of the words or phrases illustrated above.

The House Boy is permitted to use slang words or phrases — like ‘fuck’ or ‘shit’ — only when directly repeating slang which has been spoken or written by somebody else, or when Master has given permission to use slang for a specific reason. It is not a violation to privately ask Master what an appropriate substitute would be for an inappropriate word or phrase, as long as the inappropriate word or phrase is not overheard by anyone else. On rare occasions, Master may temporarily waive the Appropriate Terminology rule or permit specific slang words and phrases during an activity or event where the use of slang would be inoffensive. 

The use of only Appropriate Terminology generally allows Master and the House Boy to carry on conversation without the need to self-censor at home or away. Discussions about the rules and protocols and the House Boy chores and activities can be engaged with less worry about offending others, although these conversations may still be embarrassing to the House Boy depending on the circumstances and content. An example would be waiting in line for coffee at Starbucks when Master needs to question the House Boy about his morning shower and grooming. Master would never loudly exclaim, “Did you shave your balls like you were supposed to today?” but may discreetly ask, “Did you groom your scrotum as required this morning?” While it’s possible that the barista or a nosy neighbor in line might overhear the conversation, no inappropriate language has been used and the House Boy will have to deal with any temporary embarrassment which occurs. 

The requirement to use Appropriate Terminology includes conversations about sexual activities and bodily functions, but does not preclude using what might be an otherwise inappropriate term in a properly defined manner, like the word ‘bitch’ to describe a female canine or the word ‘ass’ to describe the domesticated animal similar to a donkey. Some examples of Appropriate Terminology versus inappropriate slang are as follows:

—> Penis instead of dick or cock

—> Testicles instead of balls

—> Scrotum instead of ball sack

—> Vagina instead of pussy or cunt

—> Intercourse instead of fucking

—> Fellatio instead of blow job

—> Anus instead of ass or asshole

—> Urethra instead of piss hole

—> Urinate instead of peeing or pissing

—> Ejaculate instead of cumming

—> Semen instead of jizz

—> Erection instead of hard on or boner

—> Excrement instead of shit

Violations of this rule may be punished with a Level One Spanking, although accidental infractions and first offenses may be dismissed with a Verbal Warning or Level Zero Punishment like a written apology at Master’s discretion. When considering discipline for violations of this rule, Master must consider that each person potentially offended by the use of an inappropriate word or phrase is a separate victim and that the negative impact to Master’s reputation and character is multiplied by the number of victims who are aware of the violation.

If a violation of this rule results in a disciplinary spanking, additional swats may be administered under the Cumulative Violation Rule (Rule #100) to account for multiple victims, as noted above. A House Boy is never ever authorized to use inappropriate words or phrases in any document in writing without advance permission from Master, also in writing. When discipline can not be administered because a violation occurs in a public place, punishment may be announced and deferred or the violation can be allowed to pass silently with discipline to be announced later when the House Boy arrives home or at a location where punishment can be properly administered, but always before evening bedtime.
