"You won't find many Doms on here who aren't 50 shades of shit Doms...Try f3tl1f3." Even on there you still find some who really are not Doms. | |||

"By genuine dominants OP, you just mean any regular bloke that'll be given the chance to shag or what?" No. I mean someone who knows what he's doing. Someone who will stimulate every part of me. Someone worthy of my submission. | |||

"I think it is for the sub to be clear what they want. Vague comments such as worthy of my submission do not help in a search. Nor do comments putting down other dominants. In my view there is no true way only a match of personal preferences. Have you done a bdsm personality test? What are the specifics that you require. See it as cv against which a dominant has to reply. We are grown ups and need proper consent so the more detail of your requirements the better. In a preplay negotiation these matters should be covered so do it upfront and before then. Attend local munches or events in a neutral capacity to meet people in a social setting and to see what other people do. That is the advice I have seen dommes giving male subs. Any confident male dom is not desperate for a sub but will understand the need to meet the sub's preferences. Good luck " I was owned for four years. I know exactly what I'm looking for. And can spot a 'wanna be' a mile off. | |||

"i considered myself a caring dominant. well into sadism but don't wanna mess you up with that. i just gave up looking for anything really. it's all gonna find it's way to me and just happen, without being labelled. that's how it worked before the internet anyway." That is true, the thing that has made it so much more difficult to get the two sides of the coin in touch with each other, is the assumptions made by anyone, of either sex, that its a bit of a laugh lets have a dabble at it Some genuinely subs I've spoken to tell stories of amateurs with shocking ideas and perception of the whole bdsm scene | |||

"Yes this. I know when I see it (him) That sexy confidence " An assertive, confident, alpha-male could be sexually submissive though. Many men are often like this. They control every aspect of their lives, but seek submission in bed. If you could make the mental leap of becoming a domme, you could perhaps grow as a person and find sexual satisfaction in new and interesting ways | |||

Mrs" I think the bitching is justified if it's angled at how abuse masquerades as a D/s relationship. The book is great in terms of how it has encouraged people to begin exploring the community - the downside is that it has encouraged a belief that not following hard limits is acceptable and to be a Dom you don't have to worry about consent. That's part of where the vitriol comes from; consent is a key part. | |||

"Get yourself to a munch, befriend some local subs, they will know if a man is a genuine Dom. There are some on here but as on fet you might not be compatible. Knowing your limits as well helps with your search for a suitable Dom x " The problem with munches is they always seem to be on mid-week evenings. Sigh | |||

"I didn't interpret the book in that way. " Obviously people interpret text in a number of ways but there are a few key scenes in which consent is woefully forgotten. “I haven’t signed,” I whisper. “I told you what I’d do. I’m a man of my word. I’m going to spank you, and then I’m going to fuck you very quick and very hard.” Anastasia in the above text hadn't agreed yet Christian continues. She later goes on to say "Should I run? This is it; our relationship hangs in the balance, right here... Do I let him do this or do I say no, and then that’s it?" In subsequent paragraphs she cries. She even says she wants him to stop. Yeah, consent is strong in that Mr Grey - she hasn't signed a contract, she expresses earlier how she isn't happy with it but he continues. The lack of consent given but the entrapment that occurs (she wants a relationship quite badly with him) goes against how BDSM is widely practised. Anyways, seeing as the thread isn't look at textual analysis of popular literature I'll stop there. | |||

It always amuses me the one that women are treated differently from men. By the logic in your view any woman that mentions her dominant nature in her profile or has it in their profile name is not truly dominant, or does that only apply to men? Where I agree with you is that is a question of whether there is a fit through personal connection. I agree with the commentator above just because a person is suave and confident in daily life does not make them a good bdsm dom. They could be a psychopath or a sub in a bdsm relationship or a plain abuser. All these are fine if that is what you are looking for but the stereotype has to give way to a personal relationship. One of the best doms I have met is one of the most unremarkable men to look at but I had the luck to see him and his sub interrelate on a number of levels and he was very skilled and she was very happy. | |||

No, just in my personal experience (not being one to be dommed by randoms) the Domme women have said so on their profiles. The Dom men haven't. But it is a very small sample to draw on. | |||
