domination and submission

Domination and submission (D/S or D/s) is an erotic power dynamic between partners that involves the consensual transfer of control from one partner to another, typically characterized by one partner being dominant and assertive while the other partner is submissive and receptive. This can take many forms including BDSM practices such as bondage, discipline, sadism, masochism, but can also involve verbal commands, roleplaying, or other non-physical forms of submission. The dynamics within a D/S relationship are fluid and constantly negotiated, prioritizing communication, mutual respect, and consent throughout.
