I have to say that the various kitchen-chores and serving-girls sets rub me the wrong way when the wrists are locked behind the model’s back. It just strikes me as unsexy and pathetic, somehow. Also, while I can admire a model’s pretty rear, it is slightly icky to see that rear being brought so close to the chores being done.

I’d much rather see such sets with the wrists fastened in front, preferably with some sort of hobble or leg-irons added (or with a chain running from an ankle-cuff to a solid anchor of some sort. That might be even better.) A plus would be a chain running from the wrists to the models waist, or to her collar. Or maybe something with cuffs and a collar arranged in what the Goreans call a “sirik,” as seen here: http://www.ringofsteel.net/images/sirik-joyce.jpg

(I think I’ve mentioned before that I have this sort of love-hate relation with the Gor novels and the online Gorean fandom. A lot of the Gor stuff hits my ick and squick triggers, but there are also a number of things – like the sirik – that hit my “hot!” buttons.)
