Line 20:
Being a [[Love Tropes|Love Trope]], the '''Property of Love''' trope in itself has no inherent connection at all to tropes such as [[Sex Slave]] or [[Happiness in Slavery]]. However, these three tropes can overlap in at least two ways. First, as a benevolent consensual BDSM game, playing with the concept of slavery. Second, as the previously mentioned [[Stockholm Syndrome]] subversion growing into the real thing.
Also, please note that justification C is most commonly used when BDSM is played for drama, comedy or similar, or when it's some kind of instruction manual. Actual BDSM fiction usually doesn't feature BDSM at all, so if a justification is used at all it's one of the other three. Often the authors prefer a straight unjustified [[Happiness in Slavery]] or [[For the Evulz]] - often with some [[Lampshade Hanging]]. That BDSM stories usually aren't about people doing BDSM is for the same reason as why computer games are very rarely [https://web.archive.org/web/20131030170055/http://www.theonion.com/video/warcraft-sequel-lets-gamers-play-a-character-playi,14240/ about people who play computer games].

* Mackenzie, the protagonist of ''[[Tales of MU]]'', is DEEPLY submissive, and gives herself to Amaranth (a nymph) in this way as a Type A. The ogres in said work also have a strict chain of people-ownership, romantic and otherwise, which leads to Mackenzie being treated like a simple object because she's too far down the chain of sexual dominance.
* This is the best-case scenario for a "[[Sex Slave|tamed]]" [[Pokegirls|Pokegirl]]—they [[Deus Sex Machina|essentially go insane unless they have sex with humans]], so freedom isn't much of an option.
* Sweetly played in this original [https://web.archive.org/web/20140216032851/http://hinokurumars.blog104.fc2.com/blog-entry-1355.html short manhwa], while at the same time subverting the [[Sex Slave]] trope hard, with a dash of "don't judge from appearances": A presumably goblin-like mafia boss buys an elf slave girl, only to treat her with such kindness, she eventually feels very comfortable living with him.
