Actively seeking a dominant...

Looking for some advice guys and girls!

I've had D/S relationships/arrangements in the past, but they've always happened naturally and either through fab or meeting someone at a club/event.

I've been open to a new dom for a while now but just don't seem to come across that many who are genuine these days.

I know there are lots out there but where can I find them?

I hope you find that special one. Your profile and your op post give mixed messages. You say you are/do switch, that's fine, but a Dom who doesn't switch would probably have difficulty with that. Is that the reason why you are

finding a Dom a challenge?

Fet-life is a good place to look maybe for a male switch, just a thought.

Totally get where you're coming from...I'm rarely submissive when it comes to swinging, the two are sepetate things for me for the most part...

I've not been actively looking on here, or anywhere yet really. As I said, it's always come about organically in the past so actually seeking it is a totally new thing

I would agree with fet nights. If you can't get to the nights then maybe a "munch" i just found the bath munch after a quick google.

a munch being a group of kinky people in a pub etc.

I guess some people would see this post and contact you , but then I also guess out of 100 contacts only 3 will be what you are looking for. Listen to other people. My experience of the bdsm scene is that whilst most (especially in club events) are the nicest of people , there are a few nasties out there preditors and abusers. I have met a few.

I used to attend munch with an ex dom, so will definitely look into that!

What makes a Dom genuine or not? I didn't think it was for me until a Sub showed me the ropes. Pun maybe or maybe not intended. I think of myself as finding my feet. Probably not what most genuine subs seek. Experience being preferred of course. On the flip side I am very mouldable to fit needs. Not offering myself up but maybe saying keep an open mind. People are too quick to attack 50 shades fans. Everybody starts somewhere. The ones who are bullies aren't so because of the book or the film. They were already wired up wrong.

That's a fair point you make. I know when I started out in kink I was very naive. I stumbled upon a real Dom and presumed it would be like Mr Grey. It was a massive learning curve for me and one I've continued to explore from both a Dom and sub angle but I still wouldn't consider myself experienced enough to take someone under my wing. As you say, we all have to start somewhere! X

Although some people do enjoy that kind of casual BDSM, so it's really just a case of making things clear in pre-meet negotiation.

Learning about what I am comfortable with and what excites me is the main thing. A crucial part of that process is seeing the pleasure of the other person. That sum's me up in any aspect of sexual encounters. Seeing the look of lust when someone trusts you enough to give themselves to you completely and taking absolute pleasure from it is a ridiculous rush. That alone spurs me on to new discoveries and opens my mind to experiences. I don't refer to that on my profile lightly.

Are you now going to or not? You have said already you keep swinging seperate. I understand more targeted websites or clubs are more likely where you will find what you are looking for.

A question to you and anyone else who wants to answer. Would you see fab as an absolute none starter in this respect? Maybe you have experienced knobbers, I think the term you used, already on here. Or maybe it is simply too generic.

Probably not, no.

I'm experienced, just not in finding what I'm after, it's always found me. It's something that takes a lot of time and trust, that level of which I rarely come across on here.

I used to use Fab for meeting for kink on a regular basis a few years back. You do have to trawl through alot of profiles. Other sites aren't always very good at searching for people, so if you can find people on here into kink you can usually ask for their profile on other sites and go from there.

I find that other site to be useless for making new connections.

And anyway a fantastic profile on a web site rarely translates to a fantastic partner for you in the flesh IME.

Most munches tend to be quite small and unrepresentative of the local kink scene I find but are useful for the social networking that makes attending events possible.

Ultimately there is no substitute for face to face.

I only use the other site for keeping in touch with people I've met in person at clubs or one to one.

It's great when you use it like Facebook but for kink.

Hope you don't mind if I plug you for further info. Me and my puns again .

I take on board what you say about profiles. True of all aspects not just kink of course. Munches have long been seen as a starting point. A way in so to speak.

In a very similar way to how I said earlier about not considering myself ready to join the site I have the same concern about munches. Are they welcoming to newbies as a rule? Is a certain level of experience expected?

I found my first Dom on here without looking for it. He was inexperienced and I helped him develop but he had all the right basics to build on so it was more him being a natural. As long as someone has the right creativity caring and empathy, it doesn’t matter to me if they’re not experienced.

I’m on the other site but I find it useless for meeting someone. I use it for events and I found going to local munches helpful as well as fet nights at clubs as you can see someone in action first. I was at a Munch last night and heard a horrific story from one person and I shared my own. In both cases there were no warning signs before it went wrong.

It doesn’t matter how experienced you are, sometimes you can’t see the bad eggs coming til it’s too late. It’s best to make friends on the fet scene and you can ask around who’s ok and who to stay away from.

You would be totally welcomed at munches and it’s not too early to join the other site. It’s probably better you join now and you can learn so much to help your journey. Go for it! (I’m friends with someone of a very similar name of yours and I often do a double take!)

No experience necessary & all are welcome!

If you don’t mind travelling a little, you’d be more than welcome at the Wirral Munch at Townhouse - usually 2nd Tuesday of each month, free entry, well stocked & subsidised bar & lots of friendly kinksters to chat to. I’d be happy to give you a tour of the club - including the dungeon & the 2 BDSM playrooms - and then maybe you could start coming along to some of the fet nights & see how it develops for you. Plenty of subs & Dom’s to help you learn the ropes (so to speak!)

There is also a rope workshop held bi-monthly on a Saturday afternoon - I think the next one is 6th Jan

Google ‘Townhouse Swingers’ and have a look. Happy to answer any questions you’ve got

M xx

Google ‘Townhouse Swingers’ and have a look. Happy to answer any questions you’ve got

M xx

That sounds fantastic . I will have a looksie.

Apologies to Strumpet for highjacking her post lol."

No apologies necessary! I hope it helps

"Getting back into the fet scene it seems would be my best bet...

The amount of messages I've had off the back of this thread has been surprising, some very helpful (thanks!) and lots demonstrating the reasons why I've not looked for a dom on here! "

There is also alt dot com. Of course there is a mix of genuine and time wasters as with any of these types of sites

May I make a small suggestion?

I think the word dominant attracts a certain stereotype.

Perhaps maybe look for a friend with benefits that's open to learning from the start?

You could both top and bottom. You both learn to trust each other and explore new avenues?

I'm not saying you are a newbie. Just that perhaps doing the rounds the fetish scene isn't doing anything.

Perhaps it's time to train a potential new dominant that suits you?

Ah, sorry, I obviously misunderstood

I'd rather not have to train someone up tbh but it may be something to look into

We hide well. Read up on correct BDSM rules and protocol for example it's D/s ...anything referring to the Dominant is capitalised, submissive isn't. One of my big beats is when people can't distinguish between the words Dom, Domme, Dominamt and dominate. Or assume as a Domme Mistress they will be allowed sex with Me! They aren't allowed to touch Me full stop! X

Good luck, you could try local lunches though they aren't my cup of tea...a load of wannabes strutting their stuff trying to act moody and dominant pmsl x

Train a Dominant!!!!!!! Absolutely don't even go there! They breaks so many BDSM RULES! I would instantly disregard anyone who suggested anything like that. Dominant s are born that way, it can't be trained.

What stereotype does it attract?

I don't think they meant train them to be Dominant, more train them to fulfil your needs as a submissive. Some people may not know how to approach it practically. (At least that's how I understood it)

Up on them there hills

D/s play is a dynamic, not a ritual, you feed off each other in oh so many ways

B/s play is what we do in clubs, L loves this play, me I find it fun.

Now D/s play, intimate, intoxicating ratcheting of sensations is absolutely stunning.

S/m does nothing for me.

I so like the fun play, however, the D/s play is sublime.

There's no such rules or formalities. You do what you want in your relationships but sontnsuggest that there's a "correct" way that everyone should do it.

I don't capitalize the "d" when I write d/s, and if the word submissive is at the start of the sentence then it gets a capital letter. I also don't randomly capitalise words that aren't names.

Doesn't mean I'm not pretty experienced with d/s though.

D/s relationships are built on trust. If you're lying to the one person in your life that you're supposed to put before all others then there can never be enough trust anywhere else to have a genuine d/s relationship.

With respect I really dont accept the 'natural born dom' theory or 'born that way' view or as people say 'twew doms.

Firstly people are not born mind readers so they can't read the sub's mind to know what they want and secondly one person's brilliant dom/me is someone else's nightmare. Thirdly it ignores those that switch and ignores people who start in one mode and through experience discover they prefer the opposite mode. It also ignores expert toppers who may have brilliant skills but not looking for anything long term and would not call themselves 'dom/me'. It further does not take into account the different use of the word dom/me. In my limited experience out of 10 people may be only 4 will agree on a definition of a dom/me.

The use of the terms 'dom/me' and 'sub' is so broad they can only be understood in the loosest sense of one likes to lead another's behaviour and the other likes someone to lead in the relationship.

My suggestion is that in the modern practice of kink the point is not the lable given or how a person arrives at that lable. The point is the the creation of a non abusive consensual relationship that gives pleasure to both. The rest is no one else's business."

There is a munch in bath but numbers are a bit hit and miss, though bristol has a few decent munches with better numbers. Event wise there isn’t much locally we find we have to travel for decent events. There used to be Monthly fet events at angels but think they have stopped now. There is swamp in bristol which is a fetish market and a afterparty which is pretty good.
