Just a question most of you will probably think is stupid or obvious. What is the difference between a dom and a daddy? Would they act different. New and have read a little but don't quite have a handle on this one yet. Thanks.:confused:
 
A Daddy is a top (or Dom) who plays the role with an emphasis on age-- being older and wiser than their "boy" or "girl." :)

Daddy is a subset of Top/Dom.
 
For me, it's subtle but there is also a difference in the power dynamics.

A Dom/sub relationship is more about a power exchange as a primary focus whereas in a Daddy/daughter(son) relationship it is more about Protection and nurturing the "little" with the "discipline" being filtered through that framework.

I hope this helps but I do not have an exact definition for you.
 
For some people it is just a matter of "comfort" with the words/title. "Master" evokes very bad connotations for me. "Sir" is a title of general respect where I am from. "Daddy" is much more a title of respect, reverence, and affection. It is a comfortable word for me both psychologically and in general speech.

If you are speaking with someone who wants a Daddy, I think it is important to find out from then just what they are looking for. It is "easy" to say Daddy dynamics involve ageplay of some sort but for many that is not the case.

Mama that is well said a daddy is more indulgent then a dom
 
So how do you start relationship

So is that what you ask someone if you want them to be either a dom or a daddy. You ask what they are or you negotiate. Thank you all for answering my questions. New and very interested.

Just my $0.02, but before you start asking other people, ask yourself what characteristics you are seeking in your future partner. Read up on kinks and see which ones appeal to you and which ones do not. Having an idea of what you are looking for will make it easier for you to find someone.

I agree with your assessment.

I am glad you mentioned this, my Daddy/baby girl play has nothing to do with age. It is power play, just more nurturing and attention-giving.
 
If I'm honest, I used to get a little weirded out when I first heard about "Daddy" tops / dominants. Like most people the word "paedophile" just kept flashing. I couldn't seen anything erotic about pretending to fuck a child. Especially as a mum.

Fast forward a few years and M/M and I do play with those roles sometimes. As someone who has a very affectionate submissive personality, being Daddy's girl gives me a chance to indulge that. In that role I am allowed to serve Daddy in a way that meets those needs instead of Master taking what He wants from my submission.

There are some other emotional and behavioural responses that differ for me as Daddy's girl from my other two sub personas, but the above is a concise enough explanation.

I guess the point of this waffle is sometimes you can't anticipate what your needs will be. Don't rule something out because it doesn't fit into your picture of what you think you need. If it turns out to be not for you then don't repeat the experience.

P.S. I should point out I have no desire to have sex with my own dad. If real incest ( consentual and legal) is your thing, then great for you and I have no problem with it.
