In this post, we briefly go over five tips for subbing:
Topping from the bottom is something that Tops like on occasion, but find annoying over time.
Bottoms tend to do this to serve their own needs. Tops tend not to like this because they want the experience to be mutually pleasureable.
Although it can be okay at first, if you made it a habit for selfish satisfaction you should probably stop and talk to your Top about it.
This communication also honors consent.
A bottom with no hard limits or no experience is something a Top is likely to avoid.
What the Top is hearing is that you’re new and don’t understand how easily you can hand over your safety and end up hurt.
You’re better off explaining precisely what kind of fantasy you want.
This isn’t a challenge to see how much pain you can handle, it’s an experience to be enjoyed how you want it.
The Top and bottom dynamic demands a back and forth.
This means that while the Top is constantly adjusting to make sure the bottom is receiving things well, the bottom should be doing the same for their Top.
As a bottom, make the giving experience that the Top is providing a fulfilling experience.
Negotations is a great time to set expectations.
Submitting too soon is common with new submissives. You want the person to earn your submission.
This is especially important to note if a sub is having “sub frenzy” where they are riding a high from a scene and freely chasing the nect high by giving their submission to everyone for free.
Self-advocacy is an incredible quality.
Tops appreciate a submissive who is clear and sure about what they want to experience.
That doesn’t mean that they are demanding the experience (you can still play coy if you’re in the headspace) but politely asking what you want very clearly is very attractive and a hugely desired quality to have.
