Aynne88 -> RE: Can a submissive be trained to be dominant? (1/8/2011 1:43:44 PM)

I can, have, and will again service top and or dominate people. No issues whatsoever with topping anyone, I am far more dominant in nature than I am submissive.

That said.....that entire above statement seriously excludes MY dominant. Holy fucking turnoff to even thinking about topping, dominating, or any other metaphor because for me that is the sexual the death knell. I love him because of his dominance over me, and if it makes me "limited" to not be able to wrap my head around being able to top him, yeah, I am way okay with that.

i couldnt do it i couldnt even top. i showed master this and he laughed. he said to someone the other day that i dont have a dom gene in my body. he would have to script the whole thing for me


Like I said, I feel for anyone who has a partner who doesn't and won't inspire a person to be anything they put their mind into being.

A Master limiting their s-type because their s-type doesn't like it or thinks that are unable to achieve, is poor management.


how is that necessarily poor management? maybe they are simply being honest? =p not every s-type does have the ability to top. if they are honest and admit that, rather than being dishonest and trying to force it, i see nothing wrong there. =p slaves have limitations, and simply having a Master doesn't get rid of them. =p poor management is shoving someone to do something that s/he really can't do. good management is realizing strengths and weaknesses -- capitalizing on the strengths and seeing what weaknesses can be overcome. not every weakness can.

then following that, someone who DOES top and doesn't enjoy it but smiles anyway, you tell them they are lying by omission. =p so do they do it even if they don't enjoy it, but at least try to make it seem like they do, or do they just not do it? can't have it both ways. =p haha

Because they haven't tried, not because they aren't honest.

I'm talking about the dominants who don't have the ability to inspire their charge into at least trying, and automatically dismiss it because 'they don't have the gene'.
If everything was genetic, we wouldn't have a gorgeous photograph of you in those fabulous lashes, ya dig?

Denying anyone the chance based purely on the fact that they couldn't possibly have the gene without even letting them try it once, is poor management.  I'm not suggesting force, but inspiration.

Of course, a dominant might just not want a sub that can work a flogger, and that's different[;)]

Or the third option.  Be honest with the fact that you hate it, don't hide the fact (like trying to make it seem like they do) and instead suffer and do it.
Obeying isn't about doing what you want, but what you signed up for.

Geeze, everyone wants stuff easy...[;)] joking aside, that is why there is such a high fail rate in relationships and divorce/seperation is on the up.

A submissive can be trained to top. A submissive can be trained to act in a dominant manner. Depending on their acting abilities, the situation and what is motivating them, they might even be able to able to carry on the facade for some time, similar to a homosexual who got married to give the appearance of being heterosexual.

I don't believe, for a second, that a desire to control and the things that I consider to be required to qualify as a dominant can be instilled through trained. Through the training, the genuine desire might be discovered but not created.

That is, of course, my humble opinion and your mileage may vary.

Yes, a submissive can be taught to top. They may or may not enjoy it, it depends on the person.

hes not limiting me he jsut knows for me this isnt the way to go, he inspires in so many ways and he doesnt limit things because i dont like them he jsut knows this isnt going to do any good for either of us. if he asked i would do it and he knows it, he knows my limits and which to push.

Not all subs are into obedience. Universalizing your experience is a good way to make mistakes. As you've just done.

Sure, anyone can go through the motions - whether they internalize and warm to it or not is whole different issue.

No.




defiantbadgirl -> RE: Can a submissive be trained to be dominant? (1/9/2011 1:23:16 PM)

Some submissives can become dominant with or without training. My Sir was a sub before I met him. Now he's a switch. Some may need training, others have learned through their own experiences being dominated what to do.

I always thought subs would make great dominants, simply because they know what makes them tick, though it doesn't mean that they are dominants, just that they can pretend to be. Some people go through changes and can be submissive or dominant...

Thanks for saying this. I was thinking something along the same lines. For me slavery is not about making myself obey, because to me that would be mastering myself. For me it is about my Master causing me to want to do exactly what he wants me to do. For me it isn't at all about obedience, but about being mastered... obedience is only how the result looks, if that makes sense.

well wishes,

anna

edited to add: oh, and regarding the OP, no I don't think someone can be trained to be dominant. You either are or you aren't. But you can train someone to top I guess.




phoenixmoonn13 -> RE: Can a submissive be trained to be dominant? (1/9/2011 11:51:33 PM)

when we were online in secondlife he said oneday he was going to get me a pet. it was when i said what do i do with her and how do i do it and i panicked big time and we both realised it may be a limit . so he treid to get me to lead with one of his subs jsut a shopping trip we came back with her being the top and we had been in message he was tryign to tell me what to do.

How insulting to many submissive's. You seem to think that submissive must mean fragile emotionally, limited to this or that and unbalanced. I've seen more submissive's that could shatter someone's nerves (no comment on those they could shatter if they were of a mind to) than those that would be shattered because their dominant wanted a little play action typically associated with a submissive, which isn't always the case.

One does not need to be a dominant personality to be good or great top.

I find it sad and disturbing when people promote the idea that submissive means lacking in some manner, less than, weaker, substandard... and lady, you do it all the time.


Rock On!

I find inspiration simply in pleasing. When he is pleased, it excites me to no end to know I am the one who pleased him. Instilling within me the desire to try harder to please him more.

After all... I am the one who reaps the rewards. [:D]

Except that I didn't make a mistake because I wasn't talking about service submissives because that isn't what the OP asked about.




AquaticSub -> RE: Can a submissive be trained to be dominant? (1/10/2011 2:25:09 AM)

The OP just said submissive. Didn't include or exclude any particular type.




RCdc -> RE: Can a submissive be trained to be dominant? (1/10/2011 3:53:10 AM)

But didn't imply service and does imply mastery/dominance, and not as Des mentioned.

If you are turned on by service, and one of the services you give is bottoming... then that's irrelevant to the OPs question because then the answer is just 'Find one who already bottoms'.

Of course the OP probably articulated that way because they are fairly new and do not know the difference.  However blinding him with every kind of s-type there is and every possibility and getting him confused with switching won't help and seeing as they haven't been back yet, I am pretty sure it's already got them skeered off.[;)]

And I pity anyone who has a partner who is unable to recognize and respect someone's authentic self. But instead demands they become imitations of someone else.
