1. Fetish bottom:
“I worship your boots and want to serve
them.”Fetish bottoms differ from other types of fetishist in that the object
they eroticise is associated with a top. They are almost invariably male, and
in the pure form have little need to interact with the top or to submit their
will in real life encounters.
2. Masochist:
“I want you to use the needles
tonight.”Masochists take things a step further and grant the top authority to
subject them to pain or humiliation, or perhaps to physical control such as
bondage. However, the dynamic of these scenes is still one of equality, and it
is clear that everything is done for mutual gratification.
3. Roleplay submissive:
“Can I be the
Girl-Caught-Shoplifting tonight?”This involves assuming roles for a temporary
scene (from a few hours up to a few days) which would normally be associated
with inequality and with one person having power or authority over the other:
for example, a store detective blackmailing a shoplifter into obeying him.
However, it is understood that the goal of the scene is direct mutual
satisfaction for both top and bottom (eg, that the “shoplifter’s” desire to be
held down, “ravished” and sworn at is catered to.)
4. Servant:
“What can I do for you now, Sir?”This can
sometimes be difficult to distinguish from a long term relationship involving
role-play submission. However, the essential feature of a servant or service
orientated submissive / bottom is their desire to do things purely for their
top’s benefit (literally, to serve.) Hence, a servant may derive great
satisfaction from doing housework at the top’s home. Nevertheless, this kind of
service is voluntary and is an example of “ongoing voluntary submission”. The
bottom constantly chooses to stay and to serve, even if that choice is just
implicit in their continued presence and obedience.
5. Slave:
“You have the authority to decide things for me,
Master.” A slave differs from other types of bottom in that they have no
(enforceable) rights with respect to the top. In particular, they cannot remove
themselves from the relationship, and cannot themselves chose to impose
restrictions on what is done to them. This lack of rights in the face of the
top’s acknowledged authority over them constitutes ownership. The difference
between a servant and a slave can be summarised by: “Ownership rather than
obedience is the defining quality of slavery; obedience rather than ownership
is the defining quality of submission.”
