CTGalPal said:Ok, please bear with me...this is my first thread.
The Dom/sub world has definitely intrigued me. I am curious what makes submissives the way they are. I believe I am a submissive for the sheer
fact that I love to be dominated sexually. I do not want to take command
but want to be commanded on what to do.
I believe my shyness and possibly my very strict sheltered Catholic upbringing
has made me this way. In my career, I am very dominant but at home or in the bedroom I relinquish all control and beg for someone to tell me what to do.
How do you know if you are one or not? And please forgive my naive question and I mean no insult to any one.
Just curious about these feelings I have...
serijules said:Over the years I have come to the conclusion that what makes me truly submissive is one thing and one thing only: someone to submit to.
That isn't as simple as it sounds. I identify as Dawnie's slave, but for this conversation I'm going to use submissive as it works better for my point.
It always kind of makes me cringe when people ask my BDSM orientation and I say I am a submissive. Am I really? In the context of what I am in their eyes, what I am as a stand-alone example (as they are asking just about me, not my relationship) am I really a submissive? If I were to meet my shameless lit crush in person...would I be meeting her as a submissive meeting a Dominant? No...I'd be meeting her as Seri, the person from lit. Even if she were to tie me up and do all sorts of things to me, I wouldn't be submitting...I would be bottoming. For me, an appropriate relationship has to exist in order for the submission to be there, and that relationship just wouldn't exist between two friends from lit.
So what makes me submissive? Another person to submit to, another Dominant person whom when things are happening to me, when I am following orders, when I am being fucked or beat...her pleasure is foremost on my mind and I am giving every ounce of submission I have to please her and entertain her, regardless of how I really feel about it. The focus, in other words, is not myself.
That's submission to me. And submission doesn't come with an "a" in front of it. I am Dawnie's submissive. Without Dawnie in my life, while I may still have submissive tendacies and desires, I just do not identify as "a" submissive. There is such a huge factor missing without the involvment of someone else to whom that submission is directed and for me, that kind of submission just doesn't happen between play partners.
So based on that theory, how do you know if you are one or not? Until you find someone that brings out that ability and desire to submit and shift your focus from your own desires and wants to theirs, I would have to say that in my opinion, one is not a submissive, one has submissive desires and needs.
Strange way to look at it, I know...but that's always how it's been for me. If the focus of the interaction and desires are pointing to yourself (and there is nothing wrong with that whatsoever), I define that as bottoming.
My motto has always been "I bottom to many, I submit to one"
So who or what am I? To all of you here, I am Seri and I am a bottom with submissive desires and needs, or I am Dawnie's submissive/slave. To Dawnie, I am Seri, and I am her property.
Pat, I'd like to NOT buy a vowel, please.

Good afternoon, CTGalPal...![]()
Nice place ya have here...![]()
Have known you as a friend for a while you already know my opinion....![]()
My first explosure to the D's world was many years ago. I meet a woman here in Connecticut that in real life was a professional Domme with a studio in Stamford. Most of here clients were executives for major N.Y.C. corporations. For her is was a power exchange. These men constantly made discussion affecting both people and business. For them it was a power release. Having to do what others said and not having to telling others what to do. She in fact had nothing to do with the sexually. There were slave to service the clients.
I on the other hand was niether her slave or a client. I was her lover. She in fact was submissive to me. It was her relinquish of power to me. Being told what to do and when to do it. She was the one that showed me my sensual side. The combination of being a Dom. and a sensualist lead me down the path to being a Daddy Dom. I do not have any desire to physical own someone. She in my case must give herself freely to me. For me it is a great sense of power knowing she gives herself willingly.
There are many level to the world of discipline you must determine thelevel you are comfortable in. You must determine what interestes you sexually also. Be open minded to allow yourself to grow. However, the very most important part of the relationship is trust. With out that small word no relationship will work. But even more important so in a Dom or Domme and submissive. That has to be the high priority.
I did feel that you have a conflict with your strict up bringing. However, exploring your submissve side and your sexuality is also necessary. It maintians both mental and physical well being...![]()
You invited me here to voice my opinion...You are still my good friend even though you are sly like a fox...
As a Daddy Dom. it is more about extreme pleasure rather than pain. There is always that fine line. I perfer to stay on the teasing side. But first you must feel comfortable enough to place your trust with you Dom...![]()
Your friend, Jaded1
tbs230 said:Well Friday night, a friend of mine that I've known for about 13 years came to see me...I actually enjoyed being told what to do...I never knew it would be so fun...having to beg for something...now I've never done that with anyone else, in fact I hate it when they tell me what to do...but with him, I found it exciting...so I agree with everyone who says that it's about the bond you have with the person...being submissive is giving up control...and trusting the other person, at least for me it is...
CTGalPal said:I agree with you...I still strongly believe that I am a submissive because that strong urge to be dominant and controlling is only with one man who infuriates me beyond belief and it has nothing to do with sex but just a strong emotion and stubborness I have for him.
But with my other sexual relationships, I have always been timid and shy in bed and waiting for direction from the man in what he wants.
CTGalPal said:Sly as a fox...![]()
I like that! Just marketing my thread and getting my little friends to come and join me in an interesting topic. (and I know you are a Daddy Dom and would probably be insightly in sharing some of your experiences)
It has brought some incredible PM's in my mailbox with other people who are just like me and exploring this side of themselves. I am glad that this brought out the curious side of people.
temperanceless said:Great thread...so timely for me.
My mind is racing as I reflect on the comments I've read.
There has always been a wild creature in me. It has been "submissive " to the dictates of the world I have lived in. I have been so Defiant of that, yet bound by my experience AS MY TEACHER (strick and conservative upbringing, domineering i.e. weak/play strong men.) I stepped onto this path when I realized that I was being defiant to my own Detriment!
I think that the irony of exploring submission is that what I seek in being lead is a Freedom. I seek to be walked away from my will to a place of trust where I can express the total carnal desires of my nature as Femme, and embrace my devotion to the power of Masculine.
In submission I actually seek a path to overcoming being a victim.
I hope that make sense.
Peace
lust4us said:My wife just came and grabbed me and told me to jumb on this thread. I have just read through it and here is my two cents.
On DVS's last comment and the one before, I concur to a large degree, with a few caveats. You could be a switch but the fact that you haven't had a fantasy about being a Dom without hate, probably means you are a sub. However, it could also just mean that you haven't met the right man yet that you want to Dom. i.e. If you really don't like the guy your fantasying about, straping a dildo on and fucking. Then why wouldn't you just dream about punching him in the nose? or some such thing? Why do you have a sexual fantasy about him? School may still be out on that one. Give it some time and see where it leads you, as Fury said.
Now in my life early on I was always kinky. I definitlely think that the strict catholic background had something to do with it. For some reason all the woman I met, that were even a little bit kinky, wanted me to spank them. Maybe because of my size, I am a former professional athlete. However it really got mentally tiring. One time I picked up a stewardess, back in those days we were allowed to call them that, Lol.. and she brought me home. Well she had a gorgeous roomate and liked to do threesomes. This particular night they just took over telling me what to do and ordering me around, in a sexy way, and it was awesome. It was so thrilling to be told what to do and when to do it by two gorgeous women. Who to eat, where to lick, when to fuck and who. You get the picture I'm sure!Well that was the day when my real submissive side kicked in!
Years later I owned my own business and my ex-wife was a sub. She wanted to be spanked and fucked and wanted cucumbers and carrots in the hole that I wasn't stuffing with my cock. I use to watch her grovel and love it but at the same time I would keep coming back to the two stewardess's. Then after a few years had past we divorced and I was sitll running my own company, which was mentally taking its toll on me. I am dominant in real life and especially in business. I don't take shit from anyone and I fear no one. But when I come home, I love to just release control and unwind.
So that led me to reading some BDSM periodicals from the local newstands, which are on the corner of virtually every street in Manhattan. The more I read the more I wanted. I remember going to a local sex club and hiring a woman and telling her, that all I wanted her to do was sit on my face and order me to eat her ass and suck her holes, while I jerked off. Wow was that a great nut. When I was done she just looked at me and said, "That was really nice, I really enjoyed that. It is a first for me." Well looking into that gorgeous face and deep down feeling that great feeling that I reallly satisfied this woman, was an awesome feeling!![]()
That led me to seeing my first Dom. When I visited her she told me that there would be no sex. I said, "What no sex? You mean you just want to whip me and thats it?" She said yeah, that is how it works. I said, no thanks and left! My next attempt, thinking that she was just crazy, was about a week later. This time I go in and here is the most striking beautiful woman, I had ever seen up to this time in my life. She must have liked me too because there was electricity in the air. However once we talked about the session and she said no sex, I about vomited! I was all dejected and got up to walk out, without saying another word to her. As I was leaving she told me to wait a minute. I turned around and she came close to me and said, " I can't do anything here but here is the name of a bar, as she handed me a piece of paper, why don't you meet me there at 10PM. I just glowed and said sure.
Well that was the start of an awesome experience that lasted, off and on for about a year. She introduced me to bondage and whippings, butt fucking, nipple torture and more! It was awesome. During the time I still saw other women and one of them was really hot and loved to have her ass whipped real good, before I fucked her ass stupid. I found that my experience with my professional Dom girl friend, had made me a better Dom to my Sub girlfriend.
I definitley suscribe to that therory. If you are a sub and you have a Dom experience it can only enhance your knowlege and pleasure, as well as your skills. I believe that in every one, there is a sub and a Dom but one will always out way the other. I also believe that in all the nilla's, it's there too and they are just too frightened to address it or don't know how. Especially in the self rightous attitude that permates this country. And all the false prophets that pervail, with there slant on sexuallity and other things.
Once I met my soul mate D. and we married, I knew at that time, that there was a tremendous Dom living inside this gorgeous model! I had to have patience but it finally came out and when it did, it came out in spades!Now we live a life where I can come home and give it up to her in the bedroom. We have this saying that we tell our friends that ask. I am king in this marriage, outside the bedroom. But behind close doors, she is Queen and there is no king. (Just a sissy slut slave waiting to serve her!) I do get the chance to Dom every once in awhile, when I want. But only with one of our girl friends. She has not as of yet, let me Dom her. If it comes it comes. If it doesn't, I am fine with that. I love her! She is my soul mate and she is my best friend and the mother of my children and my Queen Dom Wife!

I do warn those interested in exploring the D's be very cautious in your choice of Dom or Domme. Your first experience could could be a bad experience. Which could be very sad. Chat with a perspective Master. If their first interest is in getting you bedded down you may want to reconsider your choice. Meet with that person in public with others around. There are many sicko's out there. I have been into visit some of the BDSM dungeons in the N.Y.C. and some of them scare the hell out of me...This is also good advice for the Dom and Domme. That trust I spoke of early does not occur over night. Be very selective whom you choose. Hopefully with a wise choice the relationship will with stand time. For the Dom's and Domme's keep in mind many of these submissive are coming to you untrained. Take them under your wing and work with them. Don't say "NO" give them a reason for the "NO". Help them understand the life style. Remember as a Dom or Domme we choose the lifestyle. If you want the lifestyle to grow and remain health we must teach...
Remember there is no sin in exploring are sexuality. It is a sin when you exploite the unknowing for you satisfaction. The relationship is meant to work both ways.
This is not a plug for me...But try to find a Dom or Domme with experience under their belt. Many guys and gals here talk a super great story but are in fact as un experienced (if not more un experienced) than you are!
Well I think I'll stop now. I probably made a lot of enemys with some wannabe Dom's and Domme's...I can imagine my PM box is full by now with hate mail...
You sly little fox you got me on the soap box again...
Oh, and baby girl being a very discrete Daddy Dom. I do not kiss and tell...I think that falls under that word "trust" again...
A very very important word...!
BeachGurl2 said:Welcome to the BDSM boards, CTGalPal. You've gotten some really great responses here. You're also on the right track by exploring things slowly and asking questions. Have you checked out the library here ? There are some great articles and sites there that can answer some of your questions, as well.
One of the resources that I found extremely telling for me when I was searching was this article: The Healthy Submissive . My sig line comes from this article. For me, the article was kind of a light bulb moment. But ultimately, it was in the experimenting and exploring in real life that lead me to know for certain that I am submissive. Some areas have local dungeons that offer workshops and presentations as well. Our local dungeon even offers a monthly sub meeting. That's a great way to connect with others.
Communication, trust, and mutual respect are paramount in your exploration. Just because someone says he is a dominant doesn't mean he truly is. Listen with more than just your ears and trust your instincts. Good luck on your journey. Discovering who you truly are is definitely worth it.

babiesmiles said:I am a petite italian submissive.
As I had occasion to say several time on other threads, I am strong willed , determinated , I have an high responsibility job , very hard with really lot of pressure, where confrontantions and negotiations often evolve just in street fights , where nerves , mind and physical endurance after hours (or days ) of sitting at a negotiation table are the main if not the only thing which can move the pointer towards a side or another of the parties involved , with all the business, economical and financial consequences of the matter you can easily imagine.
Due to circumstances and the business area I work into I am used to work and deal mostly with men who due to my professional skills and position often have to accept my point of view even if reluctantly .
I am not arrogant at all ( not because I am specially good but just because it is useless and in my opininion a sign of weakness ) but I never allowed anyone to overwhelm me in anyway and always without need to alterate my tone of voice and my attitude .
I am not flashy in my clothes , always seriously dressed and I really love the understatement look , moreover both for my petite physical aspect , voice and attitude I am seen like a kinda " porcelain " .
Notwithstanding I sure you, since I was very young and mainly since I lately took clear awareness of my real desires, just with a quick eyes look I can show my inner world and I can lead the man who is the lucky receiver of that special glance to desire to be very mean and Dominant with me without fear to make me offence ...on the contrary right with that specific intention .
And I must say I am lucky that my Master really does love it and adores that special trait of me![]()
BTW ... great thread CTGalPal![]()
