Sweet BDSM

Qualities

Dominance, Submission, Bondage, Sadism, Masochism and Romantic Love

People who think power exchange and sadomasochism are exclusive with romantic passion are either ignorant or inexperienced. Or have only met desperate wacky masochists (which do wander the web in great numbers).

A woman above and a man below.

BDSM and Romance are not mutually exclusive, though sadly, much of the current erotica published for mass media out there seems to catter to the view that it has to be.

For me, I do not think I nearly as fulfulled after a scene when there is not some element of romance involved, and I believe the same can be said about Silk as well. I am able to slip ‘deeper’ into headspace when I feel that I am traveling those dark road out of love rather then doing a scene to get my ‘kink fix’. Of course, Silk and I have also been accused of being sickenly sweet at times

It does also get under my skin a bit when look around sometimes and see so many do-me and (pain/bondage/whatever)sluts out there just letching Dom/mes for their next session. To me, a submissive should be looking for ways to sweep their partner off their feet, both in and out of scene…

First Time Domme

Beginnings

Your First Time Acting as His Mistress

Her First Sin

If you are new to it all you’ll probably feel a bit insecure the first time you dominate your boyfriend or husband (or internet acquaintance).

Don’t expect things to be perfect.

Don’t let your guy manipulate you into trying acts for which you aren’t ready. Set your limits and stick to them.

Start off with something that you are comfortable with. Perhaps he can prepare a meal and then serve it like a butler or waiter. Or he could give you a foot massage.

The first time you use bondage gear in a scene there’s apt to be at least one minor mishap. And that is all it is: minor.

You may have practiced on pillows but your first real life experience inflicting corporal punishment will see you feeling nervous. Even clumsy. Everyone engaged in S&:M has had to get through and past that. Experience will build skill.

Use any and every relaxation technique you know: visualization, deep breathing. Try to let go of yourself and enjoy what you are experiencing.

We wouldn’t do these things if they weren’t fun and fulfilling.

Am I Crazy?

Emotional Health

No Guilt. No Shame.

Woman being cured

If you are just beginning to admit or seek to act out fantasies of female dominance and sadism you may be wondering: Am I crazy or wicked?

Neither.

The current image of sexual orientation is too naïve. Sexual orientation is more than the degree to which we are attracted to the genders. It includes our tendencies to be erotically dominant or submissive; masochistic or sadistic.

A dominant female beginning to explore this part of her sexuality should remember that a man with similar desires is less likely to feel self-doubt. As in other parts of life women shouldn’t let social stereotyping inhibit them.

Pleasing in inflicting pain on men, enjoyment in seeing a man suffer can make a woman feel sick or evil.

Understand that female sadism is a necessary complement to heterosexual male masochism. Some men need a to be made to say “Ouch!” They need pain - of a carefully measured sort - in order to feel fulfilled.

Masochists need sadists. Together they enact performances and rituals that lead to mutual self-fulfillment. Consensual cruelty isn’t a bad thing at all.

As you begin your exploration you’ll discover that dominant women and submissive men are just as likely to be humane and happy as any other class of human being.

You don’t need t look for a cure.

The Newly Dominant Woman's Puzzle

Introducing D/s

Woman solving puzzle.

You’ve discovered that dominating men is something you enjoy. Perhaps feel you need to do. How, you wonder, should you go about being a dominant woman.

That depends on you. As an individual you will evolve your own habits and style.

Clothing:

  • Dress up in fetish wear
  • Jeans and a t-shirt
  • A pretty dress

Venue

  • Play parties
  • Your home
  • His home

Submissive Men

  • Serial hookups
  • Men you like
  • Men you love

Fitting F/m Into Your Life

  • 27/7, Lifestyle
  • Only during explicit BDSM sessions
  • Informal, fades in and out

And there are many other possibilities. Don’t let someone sell you on being who you aren’t.

Some women are dominant without being sadistic. Others are pure female sadists who enjoy inflicting pain but don’t care for Mistress/slave roles.

At the beginning your guide is what you think and fantasize about. Over time your habits and practices will be shaped by what you have discovered actually gives you the most satisfaction.

Rather than worrying about being perfect at the very beginning, just relax and enjoy the ride.

Dominatrix Stereotype

Emotional Health

I have no problem with ProDommes. A skilled professional provides a valuable service and sex workers deserve respect.

Funny looking dominatrix.

But the mass media’s use of the imagery of professional dominant in movies and television is a huge hindrance to heterosexual men and women who wish to explore F/m power exchange.

To Women

If your husband expresses a desire to be dominated often it has nothing really to do with the glossy dominatrices of popular culture. His needs are likely subtler, very sincere and deadly serious. And if his notions have been corrupted by so much fantasizing it isn’t that hard to get him to range his expectations in.

To Men

BDSM, S&M, Femdom - none of this is as easy as it might sometimes seem from the mass media. Like any other human relationship it takes mindfulness and effort. And there’s never a short cut to honest useful communication.

Forget about what the folks at the Other World Kingdom seem to be doing and focus on the simple realities of your own life.

Romance Is Very High On My List Of Demands

Emotional Health

Sister of Mercy said in a comment:

I am a Domme looking for a subbie/hubbie and I agree that romance is very high on my list of “demands”. If you just want to be beaten then yes go to a professional. I have a normal life and can’t be “on” all the time

Unfortunately all too many men have their inner porn theater running almost all the time and forget about all the normal human things a woman might want in a relationship even if it includes D/s and S&M.

Yes. They are called professional dominatrices.

You don’t show any concern for what she might like. Nor why she should oblige you by doing these things to her.

Kindness

Happy Couples

A submissive househusband shares a corrective to that view of dominant women as bitches:

From time to time, my Wife will do a “random act of kindness” for me such as when She loaded the dishwasher yesterday. i always thank Her for doing such things and feel no guilt about it at all. After all, She loves me and wants me to be happy. If She takes the time out of Her busy day to do something for me, why should i mind? It doesn’t undermine Her Authority at all because i always remind myself that i don’t “earn” such kindness. Rather, Her actions are treats or gifts that She chooses to bestow upon me at Her whim.

After She left for work yesterday morning, i reflected on what She did and it made me feel very special and loved. And what is wrong with that?

Her Random Act of Kindness

Femdom Romance

Safe & Sane

Is there a more unhappily serious group of men than wanna be submissive males?

So many of you think a warm and vibrant woman wants to turn herself into a one-person fascist dictatorship or jailer.

You believe that she lays awake at night dreaming of a man she will do nothing but kick around and humiliate.

Now there’s a destiny for an intelligent loving female.

Romance is a part of this site’s name for a reason.

The hours of a shared life need to be filled with more than kink. And it is more fun to dominate someone you love and who loves you.

If for you female dominant D/s is about being mercilessly used, pitilessly tortured then go hire a professional dominatrix.

If you want to find a woman who’d really enjoy sharing her life with you - including ruling you - then think in terms of giving her a reason to want you. Not reasons to hold you in contempt.

Don’t confuse her desires with your fantasies.

Divorce Your Wife

Emotional Health

In reading the authentic - opposed to the fantasy - blogs I’ve observed the strain that men seeking to introduce power exchange (call it female led relationships or just plain old BDSM) bring their marriages and relationships.

Regardless of what the loving female authority cheerleaders say many women do not want to be the boss, head of the household or Mistress/Wife. They never will.

And I’ve witnessed some men who in offering their wife submission lose her. They wind up in divorce court.

That is sad, yes, but:

If your need to offer submission is so strong that it interferes with your functioning, your peace of mind and getting a good night’s sleep there’s something you have to face up to. You may love your wife or girlfriend but the two of you are incompatible.

For a man who wants to be a woman’s slave to continue to live with a vanilla woman is as futile as it is for a gay man to be a woman’s husband.

Leaving her - however painful it is - is the honorable and sane thing to do. There’s no shame in getting your needs met. And let her get on with the task of finding a man whose desires match hers.

Staying in a miserable marriage is often only the act of a coward.

Too Much Power Exchange

Happy Couples

The tendency for many of us is to try to figure out how to add more kink and fetish to our lives. It doesn’t hurt to remember: sometime is too much.

From an entry by Psyche:

He was feeling that we were too sceney and never really out of character. He’s never been a 24/7 type, and finds this difficult. Apparently this realisation just hit him, out of the blue, while I was domming.

I can see why this bothers him. Reflecting on what he said, it’s true. Since I now live with another kinky couple, who have a D/s situation running pretty constantly, I’ve been acting up to a similar level. My communal house-space has got very kink-heavy, and Cupid is finding it oppressive.

All change

Pacing

Beginnings

This entry relies on a few stereotypes. It is a given that generalizations are of limited use. But they can be employed for a purpose.

When hitherto convedntional men and women begin exploring power exchange between dominant females and submissive males the latter is to run ahead. Less nicely put he’s impatient. Wants it all now.

His fantasy life has built up inside his mind and he’s burden with suppressed urges. Some of these are fantasies that may never come true. Others surely will given time for the relationship to progress properly.

This can be a real source of stress for a woman new to erotic dominance (and experienced ones as well but I’m assuming it is the woman taking her first steps with a boyfriend or husband - or maybe a stranger - who is most likely to read this).

Don’t Let Him Push You

Don’t let the guy wheedle you into trying something that you find distasteful or aren’t yet ready to explore. Your desires may expand, your confidence increase given time.

Some would say that refusing him is a natural part of D/s. Maybe: it depends on the relationship. But there is a more important element.

If a woman allows a man to push her faster and harder than she wants to go then she may decide to abandon the project of exploring dominance and submission with him. By giving in both may wind up with nothing.

Go at your own pace. Remind him that he has been telling you - as he surely has - that it is all about pleasing you. (Naturally both must be pleased or there’s no basis for a relationship.)

If gets too pushy refuse to dominant him for a week. In this case taking away the kink is more affective than employing some form of punishment which really may be a treat for the guy anyway.

For Wives & Girlfriends Who Don't Want to Dominate

Beginnings

Ms Rika offers advice for wives and girlfriends who aren’t comfortable with their husbands and boyfriends desires to be dominated:

You may dislike the imagery of the words ‘dominance’ and ‘submission’, ‘Mistress’ and ‘slave’. However, you might like the idea of your partner doting on you, alert to your needs, totally turned on by you, giving you massages, pulling his weight around the house (and then some), focusing on your thoughts and ideas, in short, treating you like a Queen. Personally, I have no interest in hurting my partner or having him kneel when I come in the room, but I absolutely adore the thought that it was his idea to just sit together and chat after he cleaned up from the lunch he prepared us and that he gets physically turned on by folding the laundry! Don’t blame him for using those other types of words. They’re what he’s been fed in the magazines and movies he’s seen. He just may not know better.

Your Husband Wants You to Cuckold Him

Emotional Health

You’ve come to dominate your husband, perhaps in a playful way or maybe you’ve taken control of all the basics of the marriage (or partner if not legally wed). It seems to be going OK when he suddenly presents you with an unexpected wish.

Your husband (lover) wants you to have sex with another man.

You are deeply shocked. Maybe you can see it as a spicy fantasy but you don’t want, are repelled by the idea of sex with a stranger, sex outside of your relationship.

In a demented effort to validate his desire he shows you blogs by men who write of being cuckolded by their wives (most often called “Mistress Wife”).

Many of those blogs by supposedly submissive men are fiction. Fake. Phony. The cuckoldry described never actually happened.

Because so few women wish to “cheat” on their partner even with his consent cuckoldry is one of the least acted out femdom fetishes. If you scan many you’ll see the scenario often develops according to the common clichés of the genre:

The Femdom Cuckold Stereotype

  • The man describes himself as sexually inadequate.
  • Very often he says he has a small penis and that prevents him from satisfying his wife.
  • She decides that he doesn’t deserve sex and locks his penis up in a chastity device.
  • She makes him were some of her lingerie.
  • Eventually he is required to dress up as a girl, most often as a ‘sissymaid.’(Feminization, sissyfication seems a frequent theme.)
  • Wife cuckolds husband.
  • Her lover - often called a “bull” - meets and mocks husband.
  • Husband is required to lick his semen from his wife’s vagina.
  • Husband is forced to perform oral sex on bull.

The violent emotional forces at work explain why so many femdom cuckoldry blogs are lies.

Possible Causes of Cuckold Fantasies

  • The man desires much deeper humiliation than the wife will allow.
  • Some sort of gender dysphoria confuses the man.
  • The man is latently bisexual.

Unable to live his desires the man creates a fictional reality in a blog and on forums. Not uncommonly he writes as the cuckolding female.

Some men actually push their wife into doing this. Divorce is often the result. In many cases because the man is so deeply wounded when it really happens.

There really are F/m couples that practice cuckolding successfully. They are rare. And both the man and the woman have considerable emotional maturity and trust.

Many women come to despise the man that asks for this. Some wives leave their husband because knowing he wants this is intolerable.

This is one of those rare cases where a kink does require a counselor.

Beginings of a Lifestyle Domme

Beginnings

MWK has been sharing her discovery of her pleasure in erotic dominance. Here’s a sample from part three (links to the earlier entries are at the bottom of of her page):

I learned that there was a whole culture of people out there that not only loved me for my freakiness, but reveled in all types of fetish and kink. I purposely remained in the virtual realm of BDSM, maintaining it was “just a job” while I figured out who I was, and where I fit in. Pretty soon I could no longer deny my inner cravings and needs and began sharing my discoveries with my husband.

Sure I had tried to bring certain activities into our sex life, but he’s a recovering catholic, and shame is a huge part of his sexuality, too. Eventually we’ve both come to embrace certain truths in our lives, and specifically our bedroom and I get to call the shots. (Pun not intended, but it works)

How I Discovered BDSM

Making a Woman Dominant - Possible?

Introducing D/s

Can a wife or girlfriend with few - if any - kinky inclinations be persuaded to satisfy the submissive and masochistic desires of their husband or boyfriend?

Some say yes, others no. Here’s an extract from an ongoing discussion:

Looked at from this perspective, the question “Is it possible to ‘convert’ a straight woman to be the domme of your dreams?” needs careful examination. “Is it possible to ‘convert’ a straight woman” - I think it’s hard to argue that it’s wrong to try to open someone to new experiences that they might enjoy, and which might benefit the relationship. The problematic bit is “[to convert her to] the domme of your dreams?”. If it were possible to change the people around us into what we imagine we would like them to be, then life would be much easier than it is. Asking one’s partner to be dominant may be good, but insisting that they conform to a fantasy creation is clearly undesirable and impossible.

D/s and Parenting

Safe & Sane

Darren writes of a serious issue: how power exchange mixes with the roles of parents.

I won’t speak to how Sir feels on this issue, but where the difficulty comes in is finding a way to respect our relationship as Owner and slave without diminishing my own role as a parent. I am very conscious of how our power dynamic looks to the kids, and I fear I over-compensate some times by being over the top with them, that I puff out my chest to be overly-authoritative when the situation does not necessarily call for it.
