Dominant/Dominate potential for getting laid punnett square:

D=Dominate.the act of/actually, actively getting sum
MDf=Male Dominant, prefers females
MDm=" " , prefers males
De/m=Domme.preferring males
De/f=Domme.preferring females
sf=sub, female
sm=sub, male
sa=sub alpha within poly (m or f)
sd=sub delta within poly (m or f)

MDf MdM De/m De/f

sf sm sm sf

sf/sa/sd sm,sa/sd sm,sam,sdm sf,saf,sdf

conclusion: the semantics of what you use and how you use the word isn't THAT important as long as it looks visually correct within the correlation of the sentence, entire thought and paragragh. What matters is...that someone is getting some fine bdsm going on, instead of just worrying about taking D/e ESL lessons in black n white here (or blue).

*edit: shit, what i made as a graph, came out as mere dribble LOL grr

I guess what I'm sayin' is. Ok, the arguement is as old as the hills, BUT, look at the date on the dictionary quotes (1918).

Just like many other words (recently formed/reshaped) to be then nouns are now verbs.

like:

Roast - a cooked hunk-o-meat / or the current act of cooking it
Roast - The humiliation via Dean Martin et al

Toast, same thing, except with a glass/bottle of booze in yer hand

Polly wants a cracker (polly must be a parrot)
Polly acts like such a cracker (polly must be black)

When my Daddy was IM'ing with me about collaring me, he accidentally misspelled it as "collarded".  I found this extra amusing since he is of the blacker persuasion.  So I put it in my sig line.  This amuses me even more, because I know that there are people who think I don't know that it's misspelled.  One person actually told me that I had a misspelled word in my sig line.  *snort*

One night, my beloved but typo-prone local diner had "collared" greens on the menu, and I immediately thought of you, Linea!

I use Dominant as a noun occasionally.  And I will continue to do so.

Do people really say: "I am a Dominate"? How does that even make any sense? It's like saying "I am a Juggle."
