A Collared Submissive: Why the collar is such a meaningful symbol in our D/s marriage

For Episode 50 of Dom Sub Devotion, we poured a cocktail, sat down on a Friday afternoon, and had a fun happy hour discussion about collars and their significance in our D/s dynamic. Enjoy this one, we had fun with it! We get asked so often about where I got Dawn's everyday collar, and we’re happy to be partners with Eternity Collars.
