Chat: Fluid terminology
m. says:
Mrow.
Perhaps, under this situation, I am a sub? By allowing you to tie me up, byyyy allowing you to take control over the situation….?
(control) says:
no. you’re not nor have you ever been submissive to me.
I know this ‘cos I have played with people who have been
who are
you’re a bottom but that is rather different
m. says:
So there really hasn’t been moments where I have been submissive, ever? Really?
bottoming, yes.
(control) says:
I honestly cannot recall one.
even when I was really beating the hell out of you
m. says:
hm.
(control) says:
you weren’t submissive at all
m. says:
I agree.
(control) says:
do YOU feel like you’ve subbed to me ever?
m. says:
I think so – around the time we started seeing each other.
there were moments but very few.
unless I’m getting them confused with bottoming.
(control) says:
might be
like, you let me play with you
use you sometimes
but the power exchange isn’t the same.
m. says:
using – wouldn’t that be you doming?
(control) says:
you get joy, I think, out of the sensation of being used more than the willingness and drive and instinct to surrender
m. says:
truth.
okay, that clears it up a bit.
(control) says:
the thing is, the terms are fluid.
or they are used as such
bottom/sub/slave
but they are not the same at all
I would say you’re a strong masochistic bottom
who might be a switch for the right person
m. says:
for me, being used by you is subing. Because I do things with you that I wouldn’t do with anyone else…because I’m not willing to surrender to them.
I’ve allowed you to use me. That’s definitely not something I do with anyone else.
masochistic bottom – that’s probably the most accurate description I could think of so far.
(control) says:
it seems right.
but I do get what you mean about subbing to me
I still think there’s a difference
somewhere in there
I wonder if the letting me use you is more connected to the masochistic part
as its the best way to get the feelings you want
m. says:
well, for me, it’s subbing – but by definition in its true sense, I probably haven’t ever been submissive.
(control) says:
I get you.
