Let's say you're in a relationship with a girl, she's doing the dishes, and at the moment, you're watching TV. She asks you to help her do the dishes. You really don't want to get up and leave the TV. You hate doing the dishes.

Now, is helping your girl slavery? After all, if you'll help her, it's doing the will of someone else, and it's against your own will. I'd call it "give a little, take a little". (not sure if that's the right wording, but meh, y'all know what I mean)


Depends. If you used some of them, then no, because if you leave her to do it then you're usinf her as if she's a servant. So helping her with the dishes you're doing your fair share of the dishes, which is the right thing to do. Doing the right thing when you don't want to isn't slavery, that's being moral. Not helping would be the wrong thing, since it'd be treating her as if she is the slave, which is wrong. Note that I am not saying she would be the slave, just that you'd be treating her as one. If you never used any of the dishes, then maybe. I say "maybe" because there are other factors. Too many to go into really.
