ORIGINAL: AAkasha There are a lot of terms and definitions in this loaded topic. Sex, sexual intercourse, sexual release, sensuality, sensual power - really, all (and more) could fall under the umbrella of "sexuality" to people. For me, I don't use sexual intercourse as a carrot. I don't use *my body* as a reward system for men I am not emotionally intimate with already. I do use sexuality and sensuality as motivators to get a man to surrender to me. Men are sexual, sensually responsive creatures and I do whatever it takes to get him to that point that he will do things that are not comfortable for him. While I find that *ego* is often a good motivator to get a man to his knees, sometimes sensuality is more effective. The landmine here is whether or not that becomes "all" he is about. If he's a one-trick pony, he's of no use to me. If he can't understand how sensuality and power work on a higher level for me, beyond simple orgasms or his erection, we won't get far. He needs to understand that sexual energy is just a small piece of the puzzle. I also gravitate toward men whose sexuality is more drawn to pleasing a woman rather than pleasing himself, AND is not limited to what he's eroticized as a woman's sexual pleasure. IE, I want a man who wants me sexually satisfied *at all costs* and despite his own sexual satisfaction, but he's not merely obsessed with one sexual act - ie, "worshipping my pussy" or "licking my ass" or "going down on me for hours" -- he has to have a broader, more selfless view of what my *sexual contentedness* looks like. And know that as a woman, my sexuality is much more complicated than an orgasm, which I can easily achieve thanks to my vibrator minus the baggage if he's got a huge ideal in his head about what my sexuality should look like. He's got to be more driven to understand how to please me on a sexually emotional level, which can be (and should be, for me) very demanding, often degrading and ultimately selfless. Akasha Thank you Madam for your nice reply :) I understand the emotional needs of a relationship too, and the need of a sub to be selfless. Madam, I am curious about your talking of ego to bring a man to his knees. Can you explain it a little bit more? The male ego is an interesting thing. I think many men, deep down, find a sense of pride in pleasing. I'm not sure of all the psychological how's and why's of the wiring, but I know that men often feel strong, powerful, chivalrous when they act in a manner that is pleasing to their lady, or when they accomplish a task that requires strength and bravery. Call it slaying dragons if you want to be mythical. Call it "fighting the schoolyard bully for making little Sally Johnson cry when he had a crush on her in the third grade." Call it playing sports that cause physical pain, but with a little edge, because he knows his lady is watching from the stands. The act of enduring a little pain, a little discomfort, all in the aim of defending, pleasing or catching the eye of a lady is an age-old male tradition. It's good for his ego. While telling a man, "It makes me *wet* when you do that," can certainly motivate him sexually, many men are ego-driven to please, and can be just as motivated by being told, with a tear in her eye, "What you did was brave and wonderful. It makes me feel cherished when you endure pain for my comfort or to defend my honor." Akasha
