Stripes
Which would you rather be? A slave in the stocks with a stripy, red back? Or a slave in the stocks sniffing stripy, grey socks?
What’s that you say – you’d much rather be sniffing socks?
Well, in that case, sniff long and hard slave – for this young woman’s boyfriend is standing behind you ready to stripe your back with the whip should you fail to show sufficient, sock-sniffing respect to his beloved. And note how seriously this couple are taking the matter – this is no joke. The wellbeing of your back depends upon your sock-slavish respect!
So grimace as you sniff, slave – and show your humility and shame at what you are having to do. That’s what they want to see. We all do!
