Out of curiosity, how does being in the submissive role work if your a guy?
A bit confused by the question, do you mean how does it work out or how is it made possible?

If you mean the first, not enough dominant women.

I am very much a submissive in bed, and very much into being tied up and stuff. Only thing is, I'm not a masochist in any way, shape, or form. I like the feeling of being controlled, and I think there's plenty of really nice stuff can be done, but I dislike how often people seem to conflate 'is a submissive' with 'LOVES pain' because I don't. It's a total turn off. I am also a submissive out of bed too, but I get too frustrated with being ordered around to really embrace it. I mean, I have that aspect to me, but it keeps getting interrupted by other aspects of my personality. major frustration results. Frequently.

I don't think I knew what I was asking entirely, but I got my answer. Basically.


There are actually a lot of Dominatrices out there. Google it, and you'll realize you've seen them before elsewhere. Black leather and whips ringing a bell?
This guy got it. I think I get it now.

Admittedly, I think that I'm among a group that makes submissives look like pain sluts, but that's an overgeneralization. Sub does not always equal masochist, just like Dom does not always equal sadist.

"the safeword is banana" :p
the first one i used was "butterscotch" (her idea). mostly she just wanted to fight though, so she'd come to my dorm once a week or so and we'd beat the crap out of each other and then lay in bed watching tv.

Never tried, but I wouldn't say I'm disinterested, you only live once. Also whatever two consenting adults do in the privacy of their own home (as long as it doesn't involve animals or children) is completely okay with me.

Actually now I'm curious about the statistics of it, it seems to be one of the (if not the) most popular fetishes throughout history but it's generally frowned on by society, almost creating a new minority that it's in the closet. Where I'm from coming out as gay is pretty much universally accepted, but if you told people you're interested in tying/be tied up, you'd be looked at as a freak.

I think I'm just too sensitive and have too low a tolerance to enjoy it. I've been pretty much reduced to tears by stuff that doesn't even bruise. I mean I understand the idea of having this threshold, and then being brought up to and pushed over it, I can see how it works, but nobody has ever really been able to reach -under- my threshold to build me up and push over it. Ah well. The only problem is that my dominant partner is a colossal sadist, and I just want someone to tie me up and do nice things. grumble grumble. Usually it just works better if we both switch. I'm better at dealing it out and she's better at taking it, so at least we get something going that way, even if our daily life is a little more the other way round.

Being a dom/sub: I'm cool with that.

Being tied up/hit/whipped/choked/embarrassed/etc: I'm cool with that too.

Using toys/misc: Awesome.

I just wouldn't want to get really hurt. I don't want to end up rupturing or breaking something. It's all fun and games until somebody starts hemorrhaging. Some people take it really far and start disfiguring themselves. That's not for me.

Oooooooooof course.

This is even freakier then the various furry threads that have popped up around here.

God, there are times when I hate the Escapist.

Love to comment but I'm a bit tied up at the moment...
Except for this, this is just funny.

It was like, you couldn't stop it, you just HAD to click this thread and let everybody know that you thought it was freaky! I mean you couldn't have just ignored it and read the EVERY OTHER THREAD ON THE ESCAPIST which is not about this subject or anything.... did you have some bad experience as a sub and end up with some hypnotic compulsions or something? Because I thought that only happened in bad fic...

HA! Wow.....Defensive much? Seriously, I'm allowed to post in whatever topic I want...Just because my opinion doesn't match up with yours, that doesn't make invalid. Therefore, there's no reason why I shouldn't have posted it.

And anyway, why the hell should you care what I think? I mean, I happen to think that anyone who's into that stuff needs to have some creepy psychological issues, but, I ask....Why should that matter so much to you? Go ahead, go dominate some slaves, I'm not stopping you. I'm just weighing in with my, PERSONAL opinion. You don't have to agree with me, and I don't have to agree with you.

I'd try out bondage. But no way in hell would I do S&M. Sorry, but not into the whole pain thing.
