    I’d also point out that the sub is in a unique position of having no responsibility over the situation but also is the focal point of the pleasure. This might sound counterintuitive to people who don’t partake, but a proper dom is putting the sub’s pleasure as the first priority (doms who treat BDSM as an excuse to have selfish, rough sex without concern for the sub are considered a blight on the scene.)

    It’s why there’s a trope of people in high power/high responsibility positions in their professional life are subs. They need to let someone else hold the reigns because for them, doing that just reminds them of work.

      The dom's first priority should be the subs safety. I've kb'd a dom for missing this.

        Point, usually those two are synonymous but a Dom should be aware of a sub’s limits and sometimes that means putting potential pleasure second.

            It's the other way around for my boyfriend. He's like "Please bite me, cut me, scratch me, bruise me, draw blood" and I'm like "calm down, you have a doctor appointment tomorrow."

                Have you tried grabbing their hands and doing the "why are you hitting yourself" routine? Now you both feel silly. think-about-it

                  Yes!! But he hates the ticklyness of anything in or near his ears so if I do bite them it's more a playful "give me attention" thing.

                  I have however nia-smug found that doing that cringe uwu daddy slutty soft voice near his ear is like the sweet spot of i guess something adjacent to what you mean? Like some tickle from my breath bit not enough to just be tickling. But I also can't do that when trying to be dominant lmao.

                  I think I've found my cope though, i just channel my embarrassment into being dominant and it apparently comes across "like some weeb tsundere anime girl who's disgusted with her classmates trope" but I'd say he's the weeb for knowing what that trope is big-honk

                  Also fr I fucking knew this thread would get spray-bottle at the start but like sans-shrug

                I'm so bad at it cos I get so embarrassed

                It's always absolutely hilarious watching someone inclined towards subbing trying to dom. Like watching a puppy trying to intimidate a big calm dog.

      that’s true too. My current partner is mostly vanilla but she likes being tied up/doing shibari stuff sometimes for basically that kinda thing
