Many submissives, bottoms, slaves *want* or *require* intercourse in their relationships because they like the physical sensations of intercourse, because they find intercourse emotionally or mentally pleasing, and/or because sex and BDSM are linked up for them. Not everyone requires intercourse with their BDSM--you just happen to be running into a lot of people who do. (Admittedly, maybe that's a quality of het female submissives--I don't know, not spending a lot of time negotiating with het submissive women.) Sex (including receiving and giving oral, vaginal, and anal sex, where applicable) is absolutely not "on the table" as a default for me. Some sex acts are "off the table" permanently, with everybody, and most sex acts are "off the table" with submissive men. I am not bereft of play partners, or partners in general for that matter, thus there are people who are okay with relationships that don't include sex and do include BDSM. I expect people who enter into relationships with me to be okay with my conditions for entering a relationship,not because they identify as submissives, bottoms, or slaves, but because they've agreed to enter a relationship with me while fully aware of my expectations. As I seem to be writing a lot lately, you get to set the conditions you want for relationships, and so does everyone else. Setting expectations for what you want in your relationships doesn't, however, mean that anyone has the responsibility to fulfill your desires. I've been incompatible with people for a number of reasons, among them, the fact that they wanted more sexual contact with me than I was willing to provide--it's sometimes disappointing, and occasionally a surprise in particular cases, but the notion that I would be incompatible with some people is hardly shocking. I've just reread your message, and I'm hardly Gorean, so, again, see the above your-demographic-may-differ disclaimer. Of course, if you find that your circles aren't working for you, maybe you're in the wrong circles.
