I’m sure this topic has been discussed more or less in previous posts, but there’s always room to discuss it again.

1) Do you consider being a Dom, sub, Top, bottom, middle, little, etc a role you take on during play or for your dynamic (even 24/7)? Or is it who you are, an identity?

2) If it’s a role for you, do you believe it can be an identity? Or do you believe that BDSM is just something we do, not something we are?

When you’re with a vanilla friend are you still a Dom? When you’re at work are you still a sub? Do you have to be acting little to BE a little? Or does turning it off in public mean you’re just censoring yourself?
