Bottom - The person in a scene who follows the orders and receives the sensations.
Taken straight out of the “dictionary”! I am definitely a bottom.
When reading the Wikipedia definition-
The terms top, bottom, and switch are used to describe roles for the duration of a sometimes-sexual act, or may be used more broadly as a psychological, social, and sexual identity, as well as indicating one's usual preference. The terms top, bottom, and switch are also used in BDSM, with slightly different meanings. In both contexts, the terms top and bottom refer to dominant or submissive, or active and passive roles, not to who is physically on top in a particular sexual act. The older term "versatile" is sometimes used instead of "switch".
This article in Wikipedia is actually very interesting. It goes into the history and controversy over the term in some circles. It’s definitely worth the read.
Anyway...for me I’m proud to say I’m a bottom. Learning to be his submissive has some how released my soul and brought out my true self. The release of letting someone else be in control...to be the Top...to take over all of my fears and anxiety about life and love...to trust someone with something so precious as your heart, body and mind... and truly trust them...is such a beautiful thing. It’s changed my life...
How about you? Thoughts?
