Dignity

Dignity is one of the ten keywords in the O&P manifesto, and part of O&P's ethical system for dominants and owners.

The manifesto says:

Dignity, and the need to avoid undignified behaviour, are guiding principles for owners and dominants, and promote the stability and proper functioning of the household and its interactions with people outside. Maintaining dignity requires the avoidance of lying, cheating, lack of effort, or breaking one's word. It also means not compromising on one's own freedom, including making oneself dependent on others because of lack of self-discipline, and not compromising one's self in the face of resistance from submissives and social pressures from outside the household. In short, it is beneath an owner or dominant's dignity to engage in unworthy behaviour.
