Yeah, supporting BDSM on the SDMB! What’s wrong with you?  
Somebody’s going to get confused.

Nor will you. I will continue to weasel around it, thank you. 😛  
**EC** , I apologize for calling you creepy. We often agree on other things, and I appreciate how you have made an effort to no longer beat us over the head with your sick, disgusting, and inhuman predilections. (That’s a joke, son.)

Few of them pit the movies afterward for being horrible though.

So is there a flavour of BDSM porn where the person who starts out as the dom ends up being the sub? If there is, you should try to find some, **dropzone**. You might like it. Or at least find it familiar.

No thanks. I get enough here. However, it shows that I’m educable, unlike some people (f’rinstance, fxmastermind) here.

Exactly.

And like I tell my three-year old when her friends won’t play what she wants, “You can play somewhere else, but don’t spoil everyone else’s fun.”

It’s can be pretty fluid, really. There is a huge strain of “topping from the bottom” in BDSM play. F’rinstance, a…let’s say _friend_ of mine…is a natural top, who enjoys subbing on occasion. But when…_he_’s…subbing, it’s still a dominant role, still calling the shots.

In my experience “bottoming from the top” is less common, but happens. My…_friend_…has encountered some natural subs who enjoy the occasional topping as a role play exercise, and the occasional natural sub who thought he or she was a top but discovered differently over time. Sometimes it’s a matter of overcompensation, a sociocultural fear of being submissive, that drives people to try to pass as a dom. It can be uncomfortable for them and, from my…_friend_’s experience, they can be very sloppy doms.

How that might extrapolate to **drop** is left as an exercise for the reader. 😃

Nobody _shoved them down your throat_, did they? I _submit_ that you chose to _come_ to this thread on your own. Why do you have to come into this thread and _shit everywhere_, _fisting_ the air in rage, just because you don’t like the topic?

I just have traumatic memories of EC going on and on about it, fitting it into every thread. I clicked on that thread because I’m interested, from a cultural anthropology\* point of view, in the people who like that particular awful (from a standpoint of literature) book, and those who would publicly line up to see the movie, flaunting 😉 their kinkiness while receiving affirmation from hundreds of like-minded women and their embarrassed mates who just want to get laid. However, seeing his name I suffered a flashback and snapped, creating this thread.

You see?! Even **necrophiliacs** laugh at BDSMers!

Some people are switches; that is to say, they will take either role depending on mood and partner.

Pssst! **Morgyn**! He wasn’t talking about sex. He was joking about how I always get pwned when I start a thread complaining about something, like I start out thinking I’m the dom but end up as the sub. The reality is that my anger is short-lived and I’m always open to reasonable discussions of how I am wrong because I’m not firmly married to many of my opinions. And if **Princhester** and others get a laugh at my expense it’s okay because none of you are real.
