NSFW! Do you like to be dominated during intimate relations?

Asked by stardust (10562points) February 19th, 2012

How does one tell their partner this when the relationship is new? Just talk to him and tell him?

For those who feel like sharing, how do you feel about role play during sex? Do you prefer to be dominant/submissive and in what ways if you care to share?

Just be honest and open with him. A relationship is all about communication and honesty anyways. I’ve tried both, and when you trust someone completely it’s dynamite.

I do and I’m pretty clear that I do before and during sex.

How to get what you want in bed: speak up. A little bit of this ought to do the trick…
“Harder. Harder. You know what, just go ahead and treat me like a rag doll”.
Afterwards, tell him how much you loved it when he did whatever, and suggest that next time you would completely lose it if he did that and added whatever else.

If he doesn’t get the hint by session 2, then come straight out and tell him exactly what you want and need to get off.

I prefer being the one doing the dominating.

I love it. I normally just tell them up front. Bring it up in casual conversation.

I prefer to be dominant, but I’m not really into roleplay in the bedroom. But just tell your partner, is the easiest way.

It depends…

I don’t like feeling powerless, so if it gets to that point, I may not like it…

@AnonymousGirl If it’s done with complete trust and love, you’re never powerless. In fact, you probably have more power than the dom.

Yes, I like being dominated, and my lovers pretty much discovered that fact on their own after a few sessions of sex in which I talked. Loudly. :D I occasionally roleplay with my husband, and sometimes we even roleplay with me being the dominant one.

There have been a few times when I even told my husband to really ravish me, to treat me like a “whore”, talk dirty to me, and really “fuck me roughly”. He knows me well and is accustomed to it, but I don’t know how something like that would go over with a new lover. I guess you would just have to talk with them openly about what you want, and see how they respond.

It should be easy to communicate this if you’re a woman. Personally I know for a fact that more guys would like to be dominated by a woman than they care to really admit. For some odd reason (even today) it still seems to be considered much more politically correct for a woman to admit that they like to be dominated than it is for a guy to admit this.

I would just be honest about it if it becomes necessary to do just that. Unfortunately though many women may feel a turnoff if they have to remind the guy to do this to begin with and the ‘spark’ may diminish for them as a result. Personally I think that it is tougher for a guy to communicate this than for a woman since guys are naturally expected to be ‘dominating’, or at least be perceived as actually enjoying being the dominant one most of the time.

Sexually, I have no problem being with men. Emotionally it is not there. As far as sex with a man, I would want to be the one dominating. I find a submissive man to be quite a turn-on.
