"Im heavily into it, im a submissive and been living the lifestyle 6 years but following it for about 8 yrs. I could talk about it all day " Would it be ok for you to share how you realised you were a sub (and not a Domme) and how you started and found out what your limits were? P x | |||

But I've played with a fair few lovely submissive ladies man free. " How did you find out you were a Domme? Did you try being a sub as well? I think it would be amazing to meet with a domme. I have never met a any Dom/Dommes but I would like my first one to be a female one. | |||

"I'm into it. I've dabbled a bit with my husband, but he's not so interested. I've been trying things out a bit more with a woman I met at a club though I think I'm a switch, I lean more towards submissive but I can domme if needed and I get off on the other person enjoying it. I'm very rarely submissive with men, especially men I don't know so we'll. I guess I don't like feeling so vulnerable with men unless I really trust them." Thanks for your post. So would you prefer to be more sub experiences with women or would you be a switch? I get what you say about not being a sub with guys, however, I know some lovely, lovely Doms. They are like cuddly teddy bears to me but far darker with my wife Mrs Trellis! | |||

I do still sub with men occasionally, but it takes a lot longer to trust them before I do. | |||

"I have always submitted to men, only played normally with women but would love to submit to a woman too one day! Think I would be very particular about finding a domme though, probably more so than male partners. Either that or I could maybe be swayed by a hot couple " Out of interest how would you be more particular I'm curious on the difference. Genuine interest | |||

That and hot women intimidate me a lot more than hot men for some reason! | |||

"So when I look back on my early experience their are massive clues. I love predicament bondage still but that started say back when. I started attending swing and fet clubs at 18 and watched people and learnt. There used to be a massive mentorship culture so I learnt skills one at a time from people who had experience (flogging, sensation, wax, fire, rope, medical for example) The mental and the physical aspect are different. Everything I do I have tried on me either doing it to myself or by bottoming to someone. I have no desire to submit, I'm comfy at the thinking end and I'm not as strong as the beautiful submissive people in my life. I'm awful at relaxing lol " So what happened to the mentorship culture? | |||

"Im heavily into it, im a submissive and been living the lifestyle 6 years but following it for about 8 yrs. I could talk about it all day Would it be ok for you to share how you realised you were a sub (and not a Domme) and how you started and found out what your limits were? P x Very simple tbh, I actually read 50 shades and knew I wanted to be tied, spanked flogged etc. I always fantasised about being tied up and a strong man controlling me. I didnt know what a submissive was till I read that book. I know its corny to some but a life changer for me . Ive never wanted to take charge thats foreign to me tbh. Being a submissive makes me feel free xx" I love this! I don't think it's corny at all. | |||

" I wondered if anyone on here would be interested in chatting on this thread about BDSM with women. It would be great to chat to other women and find out how you got into BDSM, are there any events (in normal times), are you a switch, Domme or sub and what you enjoy about it. I am just starting my journey, so would love to chat and share thoughts and ideas! " I'm very into BDSM, I'm a little, I don't switch. I've only had a few experiences of kink with other women but it's something I've enjoyed and am definitely interested in doing more often. | |||

" So what happened to the mentorship culture? " It's still there to some extent. But there's more events and venues. More people by far and lots of commercial events offering to teach skills. So it's just all bigger and shinier than it used to be a lot smaller publicly. To be honest, I have taken classes and sought help from some people but I have maybe seeked less help more recently too. | |||

"This is very interesting. I've taken the quiz and I feel like I'd need to take it twice. Once from the perspective of being with a man and again from the angle of being with a woman. In my experience, I've always been very sub with men. In my (somewhat limited) experience I've been more "Domme" with a female. I'd love to explore this more. Or perhaps watch a true Domme with a sub woman..in action. Definitely food for thought x " Me! Me! Me! | |||

"Always happy to chat BDSM with other women. I got into it just over eleven years ago after chatting to a guy in a vanilla chat room (Lycos) and it was a bit of an epiphany for me. Once I'd realised I was submissive everything looked different, smelt, tasted, sounded different. It was a real turning point and changed my life. I started out as submissive and was adamant that was all I would ever be, but I've evolved since then and now switch but it takes the right connection to bring that side out. I've met some incredible people along the way." That's a really interesting journey. I am just at the very beginning of my sub journey (I am at the 'Go' sign) but am looking forward to the experiences. It's really interesting how you evolved. How did that happen? Maybe we should set up a chat to carry the conversation on via Kik or Telegram? | |||

How did that happen? Maybe we should set up a chat to carry the conversation on via Kik or Telegram?" I think the best piece of advice I was given at the beginning was 'trust yourself'. You have to trust yourself before you can trust anyone else and BDSM requires a lot of trust. Listen to your gut and communicate. Ask questions if you don't know something. I was lucky that I was encouraged to join the local BDSM scene and as a result have had some amazing experiences. The community is a great place to learn safely, attend workshops, there's even a two day annual kink conference (Kinkfest). I'm not sure why I evolved from sub but I found a sadistic side and well, it's fun hurting people (consensually ) I only chat here, don't have kik or Telegram. | |||

"I'm into it. I've dabbled a bit with my husband, but he's not so interested. I've been trying things out a bit more with a woman I met at a club though I think I'm a switch, I lean more towards submissive but I can domme if needed and I get off on the other person enjoying it. I'm very rarely submissive with men, especially men I don't know so we'll. I guess I don't like feeling so vulnerable with men unless I really trust them." I was into the scene years ago and enjoyed it as a sub, now I'm probably a switch as I wouldn't be submissive to a man. Woman on the other hand I could be a sub too. I think it could be as I have a strong belief in female empowerment that it's not for me to have a Male dom. | |||

"This is something I am looking into. I am switch with D and always have been. When playing with women I appear to be quite domme. Also when playing online with Men I quickly established a more dominant role. I would love to expand on this and learn more about the role in more detail. I would like ideally to find a female (Mistress) to show me the ropes (Pun intended) as I already have a couple of female subs awaiting orders It would be great to speak to others in the know.

Tbh I think the thing that really changed it for me was that I met a guy I'd been talking to for a while at a club, we'd never talked about BDSM or kinks or limits, and he put his hands around my throat without asking. I hated that vulnerability where he felt he could do whatever he wanted to me and I couldn't do anything about it. I can't imagine someone having that power trip with me fully restrained or tied or anything. I've pretty much set myself a rule now that I won't meet any new men at all until I'm strong enough and fit enough to defend myself if I need to. It's a sad state of affairs that it's got to that stage though | |||

"I had the experience of being introduced to the scene by a fabber as a sub; but he handled it wrong and broke my trust in the end so it stopped. However, I thoroughly enjoy being a Domme; issuing commands and the adrenaline rush I get from it, Ian sees it in me (when I’ve worked on someone) which he enjoys as he’s a terrible sub! I think anything new, I need to experience myself first, so then I’m confident on doing on someone else. I had been trying to go to classes for rope work before CV-19, so hopefully can take them back up. I’ve worked on both men & women, mostly with my flogger.

It also shows how little he knows about BDSM and that any Dom/Domme worth their salt will agree limits, safe words and follow them by the book at a meet. He was a tosser. My wife always talks to any new potential Doms for quite a while before meeting them for a social (coffee) and then decides whether to plan anything. It is not a fool-proof process but it works most of the time. You should not have to feel you can only practice BDSM if you are strong enough to defend yourself - unless you consent to this. | |||

I’ve had a few ppl ask me at the club to work on them, and as you say; safe words & agreed limits are KEY. I use the traffic light system as I have hearing difficulties so need something clear to hear and will constantly check on their status. I NEVER work on anyone if either I or they have been drinking and deliberately leave gear at home if I’m planning on drinking. I’m enjoying trying new things and testing some boundaries but I know I’m on the ‘newer’ end of the scale. Millie | |||

"Tbh I think the thing that really changed it for me was that I met a guy I'd been talking to for a while at a club, we'd never talked about BDSM or kinks or limits, and he put his hands around my throat without asking. I hated that vulnerability where he felt he could do whatever he wanted to me and I couldn't do anything about it. I can't imagine someone having that power trip with me fully restrained or tied or anything. I've pretty much set myself a rule now that I won't meet any new men at all until I'm strong enough and fit enough to defend myself if I need to. It's a sad state of affairs that it's got to that stage though That’s not really about BDSM, nor about being stronger so you can defend yourself. It’s about an idiot who doesn’t understand consent." Agree what’s worse is that was assault. Any true Dom/Domme and sub would have safe words and set limits. Millie x | |||

"I apologise for jumping into a thread for women about women. But I have to disagree entirely with the second sentence of the above response on two grounds. Firstly it uses the dreaded "true dom and true sub" concept which is not established and is subject to debate. Secondly coupling the use of safe words to the true dom and true sub concept I believe is wrong. Firstly I would say that I agree with what happened was an assault. Also that I nearly always use safe words, but here is the rub not all subs use safe words. I have run into a few who were very experienced and did not use safewords and they are not being foolish. There are doms that don't use safe words and they are not necessarily being arrogant and abusive. The reasoning goes like this. If you are experienced and are focussed on the sub and paying full and proper attention to the sub the dom will be aware when the sub is distressed by noticing the physical indicators and thereby will know when to end the scene. Their view is that use of a safe word creates a false illusion of safety which absolves the dom/me of the responsibility of being extra vigilant of the sub's condition that may require ending a scene before the safe word is used. Therefore it is really a matter for the dom/me's and the sub's personal decision on how the dom/me or sub handle risk. It is not simply whether a person is a true sub or true dom. I am a great believer in safe and consensual bdsm. I think newbie subs need to have access to information on how to be safe when starting in this lifestyle. I would suggest they need to do their reading around the subject of meeting people and how to be safe in doing so. Also they need an understanding of negotiation ans knowing what is or is not safe play and what are their options. You can't rely on another person to be honest. This applies regardless of the gender. " When I said true sub/Dom using safe words, I’m aware that some don’t; I’ve observed couples where it’s the body language or with one couple in particular the F sub indicates her tolerance by the raising of her leg when being flogged. I stand corrected on that count. I have stopped when I’ve observed the sub has not replied back to me in a way I’m happy and as someone who is Deaf; I constantly watch people’s (vanilla and fab/kink) body language rather than rely on words. In general terms, there should always be a discussion about parameters and limits and consent is key. Millie | |||
