Caregiver

A baby Girl / baby Boy is often known by the gender neutral term, little. A little is a type of submissive who embraces a childlike state. This can manifest in many ways including curiosity, a love of play, carrying a soft toy and dressing in clothes associated with being young. They can also use items such as pacifiers and diapers, but these are optional. Not all littles see themselves as being that young. Littles are submissives who need a great deal of nurturing and care from the Dominant who looks after them. Their Dominants are usually known as Daddies and Mummies. Littles will engage in activities which are associated with childhood. These include colouring in colouring books, doodling, blowing bubbles, playing games like tag or snakes and ladders. On the face of things, it seems a little takes more looking after than other submissives. It may be that they expect and need more support, time and nurture but their submission runs deep. Little’s relationships to their Daddy Dom or Mommy Domme are very intense. There is a great dedication from the little to their Dominants. They have a lot of submission to give. Littles can be bratty especially if this is a way they can earn fun punishments that they want. Littles, like all submissives, crave control. They may want very precise rules and will go out of their way to push the boundaries and test their Dominants. Littles often enjoy mixing BDSM gear such as cuffs, ropes and collars with pretty lacy dresses or dungarees. The contrast of innocent and not so innocent makes them happy.

Dominants like to be in control. Unlike BDSM tops or sadists, their need is not particularly to inflict pain but to be domineering and have control over another person. Some Doms/Dommes expect to be obeyed immediately and without questions. Others enjoy being tested, and having to show their dominance over the submissive who’s being bratty. There is no one way to be a Dominant. Dom/Dommes can also be sadists, tops, masters or riggers. Dominant is a huge category of BDSM made up of many very different people who all have one thing in common, their need to be in control. The D in the term BDSM stands for Dominance, therefore Dominants are an instrumental part of BDSM. .embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }

A Master/Mistress is a specific kind of Dominant. They are more likely to take on a 24/7 relationship with their submissive/slave and control all aspects of their sub’s life. There may be exceptions, for example when the partners are at work, otherwise a Master/Mistress is in control all of the time. They will train their slaves to serve them in the way they enjoy. This will include domestic chores and service as well as sexual and kink aspects of their lives. Some expect their slaves to ask permission to eat, use the bathroom and other mundane acts, taking control of everything their submissive does. Of course, all this is pre-agreed. It may all be written down in a formal contract or may have been discussed in advance. There will be ways for the slave to express discomfort and to say no when they don’t want to do something. This could be in the forum of a safeword or something else that is pre-agreed. Even though the relationship seems very one-sided, it is consensual. A Master/Mistress has their slave’s well-being at heart and will never make them do anything that is unsafe or they won’t like, that is part of the nature of the trust and control between them.
