Hi there ann. There are a lot of stereotypes in regards to dominant men and women. There are stereotypes of the differences between a 'Dom' and a 'Master' (and slaves verses submissives, and everyone verses switches, etc.) The only statement true 100% of the time, is that the stereotypes are misleading. 'Cruelty' can be expressed in many ways. Some people are emotional sadists, other's physical sadists, and some people are just plain unpleasant. The motivations for that 'cruelty' are important. I am a sadist, in the context that I enjoy mixing physical pleasure and pain. I enjoy practicing objectification and humiliation on a girl as well. On the other hand, I value the emotional elements of my relationship far more than the activity elements. It simply isn't as enjoyable for me to spank or whip a girl who I care nothing about. The focus of your question won't really be answered by gender; men and women are driven by essentially similar feelings and desires. How those feelings and desires are expressed can be confusing, to say the least. If you are bisexual, it's a good bed your own reaction as a submissive or slave will likely be triggered more by how you respond to a particular person, and less by their plumbing. Good luck, Stephan
