"I think that what it means is that they want to have rough sex and potentially abuse their partner without really understanding what the term means sexually. I’m not saying all, but I certainly think that a lot of people get the term aggressive and dominant mixed up" And this. | |||

"I'm wary of any profiles that say they are dominant, I'll often question it to see their knowledge on the subject. I like people that have a natural dominance but are not necessarily dom. Or I like doms that are full within the scene and know exactly what they are talking about. I don't like the silly inbetween boys that's think they have some knowledge and think I will submit to them with a quick slap of my ass And dominance isn't control makes me laugh when that is stated too, I may be sub but no one controls me, I may choose to surrender some aspects of control to a dominant " If anything, the sub has the power. When they say stop, it stops C | |||

"I think 50 shades has a lot to answer for lol True but do you think it’s societal expectation of the role of men and women? " Yes, socially men are expected to be ‘the man’ and women are expected to be ‘the woman’ Hope this helps | |||

"I would say I was naturally more dominant but after years of being that way I have (at 35 funnily enough) discovered the fun that can be had from switching sometimes." Totally agree with this. Switch things around from time to time | |||

A lot of "dominant" guys think, the fact they use girl as a fuck toy for own needs makes them dominant. Sorry, but it makes you a prick! On few ocasions i ended up with big bruises, healing for weeks, just because guys were agressive and way too rough. | |||

They just want to take what they want with no consideration for the woman. | |||

"I think 50 shades has a lot to answer for lol" Assuming young men would read a book like that or go to the cinema to watch it. There isn't much domination in the film either; it's more about his vulnerability, her refusing to succumb and their lavish lifestyle. | |||

As I find a lot of 35+ really like a woman in control and exploring their submissive style. What are you thoughts? Does anyone even care x" Personally, twenty somethings claiming to be Dom doesn't work for. That said, twenty somethings claiming to be subs don't work for me either.

" I disagree I don't think Its a role I think it's something you naturally are and it's up to you if you decided to act on that. I was 21 when I was first brought into the fetish world, I had natural submissive tendencies and I met a older guy who happened to be a dom. He opened my eyes and I knew what I craved from the start. At no point did he try to coerce me into his world but gave me snippets and let me decide when I was ready to explore more. It was a fun time and probably one of the most sexually satisfying times I've ever had. | |||

" I was active on the bdsm scene from 18. By my early 20's I was involved and playing several times a week, including running workshops. Someone in their early 20's can have more knowledge and understanding then someone who has just found their scene in their 40's but as others have said it's a natural air of confidence and control. Not as some men, especially on her, see it, as arrogance and rough sex. As for men wanting to find a dominant woman, generally i find that people's sexual nature is often opposed to their working nature, those who are in high powered jobs are often submissive sexually and vice versa. Most people only start to open themselves up to different views of sexuality in their 30's and 40's when they are more self-assured, which is often why there is a seeming influx of male submissives. | |||

Watching the film made me cringe and the only moans you heard from me was ‘as if’! A load of tosh. I agree with many on regarding dom/sub not solely involving rough play; it’s much more subtle and is something that evolves between two people. | |||

"I like to switch it about, but maybe by not totally being one or the other, I could be missing something? I guess I'll never really know, but I enjoy myself all the same. " How can you be missing something if you play both sides?! Honestly switches are so much fun, being a switch is fun. It gives me an edge, having an idea about what the other person is likely to be thinking and feeling. You stay switchy! | |||
