Pillow Princess

The term pillow princess can be used in jest, or even by people who are describing their sexual preferences, as in a dating profile. That said, some people also argue that it has some troubling connotations. After all, in consensual sexual encounters, direct reciprocation is not required - not everyone enjoys receiving and performing the same acts. It can also imply that someone who lays back and prioritizes their own pleasure is somehow lazy and undeserving, an attitude that may stem from a patriarchal culture that's focused on male pleasure.

In a dominant/submissive relationship, being a pillow princess might be a natural part of a submissive's role. It has even been argued that a pillow princess is a legitimate sexuality or sexual style.

How sexual partners interact is a matter for them to negotiate. If passively receiving sexual pleasure in certain instances works for both partners, it isn't a problem.
