Verbal strictness, the dominant interaction and command presence, that is a place to begin. Depending on your preferences for formality, you may choose a "high protocol" style of personal interaction, while choosing to limit the sorts and styles of pleasurable intensities that you inflict on your sub/s. One of mine is a self-described pain slut, and I am bound by my own ethics as well as comfort zone not to do physical damage to him; yet, he has expressed not only (extremely sub-spacy) content after a session with me, but having been places he's never been before. Of course, every relationship is its own entity, so some of this effect is mutual fit. But an example of my strictness with him, and my command when we play, is a session recently when I began early by inserting a butt plug—and after a lengthy and complex session, I was quite high on endorphins, and gave him permission to get dressed. And as I drifted earthwards, I recalled the butt plug, and gloved up and summoned him to remove it…and had my hand down his briefs looking for it when he realized what I was after, and said that he had taken it out. He had assumed that my permission/instruction to get dressed had meant to undo everything. And he apologized promptly and again driving me home, and again by email the next day. (Yes, he paid for it, but not in "punishment". Mostly, it was an object lesson for him that, even thoroughly scene-high, I had intended him to be sitting on it until *I* removed it.) Anyway, I wish you well on your domina's journey. It is always a voyage of self-discovery, and your recognition of preferred style is an excellent place to begin. Lady Delilah Deb
