Domination in it's Raw Definition


D.S.
(Domination/Submission )

~ I'm a submissive kind of chick completely in the bedroom. ~

Now when I said that how many of you envisioned me chewing on a gag-ball at the recieving end of a dominatrix? Uh-huh. That's what I thought.

The truth is that for the most part when it comes to sex- any time the words 'submissive' or 'domination' come into play there's a stereo-typic tie to the classic S & M type scenarios. Immediately you envision consentual physical aggression or bondage and bull whips.

Okay alright, in most cases this may be true... But the term domination in the sexual dictionary is referenced in two ways:

--One you're familar with ( described above), as the hard-core puppetry and manipulating of the person you're with.
--The other is domination in its most general sense of "commanding"; also meaning to lead.

The second definition of course touches no where upon the rigid higher-position of aggressive domination, but the underlying theme of the interaction taking place. Some good examples:

You can command a conversation, command a dance, command a room. That doesnt mean aggressively, it just means to be in control of. This could be a gentle push or a firm voice announcing the makes and moves.... *sigh*
Ah HAH, Control... it's a beautiful thing.

I for one love dominating a toast of wine, either privately or celebratorily with a group of people... I can give one hell of a cheers.

Gentle unspoken domination is also a favorite of mine; since I not only like to fight for the title sometimes, but I like to be a controling party in unique circumstances. Normally you should be able to tell which persona you take in a relationship or situation within the first hour. In my case, some times within the first five minutes.

Domination/ Command/ Contol- Its all the same. Whether you choose to use aggression in your dominatory role is up to you, regarless of whether the situation dictates it's sexual.

I hope this small informational ditty will ease the minds of those that may assume being dominating means they will have to inflict pain on their love, and or some strange S & M experience. In many cases it's quite the opposite... to be the one who sets the mood, makes the decisions, controls the flow of the sexual experience. That's true domination and it can be done without the whips, zip ties, degredation, or pain.

True examples of Domination include:
- Role playing: Teacher and student, Boss and secretary... etc.
- As it relates to bondage: The one who ties and takes advantage of
- As it relates to S & M: The person who inflicts the pain
- The action man/woman: Control and leader of the way the sex is flowing
- The heavy hand and tight grip: For those who like to man-handle and be rough
- For love making, and soft sensual experiences, the dominator is the one who knows what they like and makes it happen.

Submission is the reflection to domination; it is the soft supple opposite, the waiting nervousness, the receiver.
Submission ultimately means to let control go and follow the dance. Basically as you can imagine for every scenario there is another who will be the 'lay down', the puppet, the reciever.

I like receiving.... Dominate me.

so how do you feel about what the nugget that I've heard often ... that the sub is actually the one in control? Also ... that you can't be a good top unless you've been a good bottom?

¡Soy es muy curioso!

Are you confusing male female control in lieu of dom/sub? I mean, you can flip roles... but ultimately a sub is never dominant.

Adn I completely agree with being a good top and bottom, but it depends on the situation completely.

Normal love making is tough because people don't make their roles obvious, and or they're unaware that there's a power struggle happening at all. It's very easy to NOT be a good bottom if you dont even realize you're involved IN a role.

But in BD or SM I agree that you can never wear the boots if you haven't licked the boot heel.

I think what was meant is that the sub is the one with control, because he/she is the one who determines how far things can go. The safe word is the ultimate in control, isn't it?

Well I see your point, but in that case... the sub will be the dominant party if the control stops by the hand of the sub.

The meek and aprehensive can be the ultimate dominator.

wasn't really My point, per se; just something I've heard/read.

Despite My interest (lookit Me with the capitalization! LOL), I've only been something of an observer in chat rooms and such in the past ... never really did more than ... *cringing at the term* ... dabbling.

I like to be both, favouring neither one nor the other.

Each scenario is different and therefore each response. The result being a natural, unplanned encounter. ;)

Even if being hard pressed by somebody else, the sub can take on a dominant unspoken position easily by persueding the other person to stop or change the situation by soft manipulation.

If the 'sub' is controlling anything be it attitude, permission, task, or otherwise... they are the dom.

So, yes the reciever can dictate... in that case the receiver is the dominant. Let's not get position confused with role.

Hi favorite racist blogger.. i heart ya and your cracker friends.

By those definitions, my wife is the dom since she ultimately determines if we have sex or not.
True?

that's the fun of it all... every couple has to determine their own roles... the smart ones actually pay attention to the psychology of it :)

Look at your fans...I'm so impressed!

In a sexual encounter, the separation of powers adds to the intensity. Taking the lead requires prowess and respect; following requires trust and a letting go of inhibitions.

What a great piece, Emma. I'm glad I stopped by. I'll have to read through some of your archives to get a b etter feel, but so far I like what I see.

And don't think I didn't notice the entry below. Next time, drinks and dip are on me. Compliment my ass again and I'll invite you back to my place. I'm easy like that.

k, after much thought and consideration... i'm pretty sure that i'm a dom, but not in the hurt you kinda way. well a little bit if you'll let me, but a good hurt.

i'm not good at giving up control... even when i do "give up" control i'm still in control. I don't mind sharing control, but I can't just give it up completely.

i have thought about it and fantasized about it, but i would need the right person for that. i would need someone that is as strong i am personality wise. i'll never be able to trust someone that is weaker than me.

don't get me wrong. i love to please other people, but it has to be on my terms. hmmmmmm... i need to work on this. i really would like to try it one of these days...

I can appreciate the more gentle manner of being dominated, and also being in control. As you explain ever so eloquently, to dominate doesnt mean to inflict pain. Many a leader will dominate a conversation. Of course that is far from giving in to the guidance of a dominating lover. Everyone like to be submissive at some point during sex whether they know it or not.

Show me a man or woman that doesnt enjoy being laid back and orally pleasured, and I would show you someone in need of some enjoyment.

Submitting allows the reciever the ability to enjoy the moment with out worrying whats next.

I am with you..dominate me
