Discovering Your Femdomme Persona

Every person out there has their own personality and that changes how you'd interact with any aspect of the world. Your personality can shape how you like to enjoy your kink interactions as well. Your personality - including your likes, dislikes and preferences in your dynamic - can help determine what femdomme persona appeals to you the most. Are you a soft-spoken dominant who loves to cuddle? Are you a strict femdomme who expects every sub to follow orders perfectly? Does the idea of humiliating your partner in public sound like a turn-on or a turn-off? What would you want to do with a submissive who was at your beck and call? Your personality can help determine what types of dynamics appeal to you.

However, your personality doesn't have to set your femdomme persona in stone. Sure, your personality likely will decide what you're most comfortable with, or what you strongly identify with, but it doesn't have to always dictate how you act. It's quite possible for a soft, shy person to roleplay a "cruel" and domineering Mistress. It's possible for an extroverted, tomboy-type of person to role play a soft, gentle and "care-taking" Mommy. Keep in mind that these categories aren't here to box you in. They're here to help give you options you may never have thought of.

Curious about different "types" of femdomme personas? While this list isn't an exhaustive list by any means, it'll give you a general idea of some of the more popular roles you could take on.

Care-Taking

Earning its own name in the femdomme community (as "gentle femdomme") to set it apart from the usual cruel stereotypes of femdomme, a care-taking dominant is someone who loves taking care of their slave. Your domination comes from being caring and supportive to your submissive. Someone into the gentle femdomme dynamic might enjoy bathing their submissive, giving lots of praise and pet names, providing lots of cuddles where she might be the "big spoon," gentle encouraging sex where she calls the shots, and generally taking the lead in most relationship decisions.

Encouraging

The encouraging dominant is similar to the care-taking persona, but this type of femdomme personality focuses more on the personal growth and development of the submissive under their care. Regardless of what type of growth it is, most encouraging dynamics include a clear intent for improvement. An encouraging dynamic may include slave training, a fitness plan, weight loss goals, diet changes, fashion changes, social development, and more. In the case of the encouraging dynamic, the female dominant sets rules and limitations to help the submissive partner slowly inch their way towards improvement in the designated areas. Think of this dynamic as a life coach or mentor - but with a lot of kink thrown in.

Pampered Princess

This dynamic is much more focused on the pleasure and enjoyment of the female dominant. While encouraging and care-taking dynamics are usually enjoyed as sub-focused dynamics, a femdomme who wants to be pampered will be more of a top-focused dynamic. This dynamic likely includes the female dominant asking for lots of foot rubs, massages, baths, lotioning and more. Depending on the arrangement between the partners, it may also include new clothing and heels, shopping days, and couples' spa massages.

Sadistic

If you'd like a submissive as your pet for spankings and other sadistic activities, the sadistic persona might be for you. Unlike the other personas, your kink is definitely causing discomfort and pain. You like to see a submissive suffer for your entertainment. Despite that kink, however, you genuinely don't want to break your submissives. You'll likely want to find someone who shares the masochistic desires you need. Sadistic femdommes will likely spend a lot of time doing kinky activities such as spankings, bondage, flogging, electro-play, and more.

Cruel

If humiliation is your favorite, the cruel femdomme might be your new favorite persona. The cruel persona is one of those personalities that requires a good, stable trust between you and your partner; otherwise, a lot of the hallmarks of cruel behavior can be abusive instead of just consented-upon role playing. The cruel dominatrix loves to tear her submissive down. She'll love to call her submissive names, pretend to ignore them, pretend they aren't worthy of her attention, and force them to do degrading and humiliating tasks to earn her attention.

Mixtures

Of course, nobody fits perfectly into a square-sized box, and the same can be said of your femdomme personality. Maybe you're a little bit sadistic, but catch you in the right mood, and you're a care-taker all the way. That's perfectly normal! There are lots of other types of femdomme personas as well. After all, your femdomme persona is based off your own personality, and we know exactly how varied human personalities are!

How to Figure Out Where You Fit

Now that you have a basic idea of some of those personalities, though, how do you go about figuring out where you fit in? Luckily for you, that's pretty easy! You just follow your fantasies! What turns you on when you think about doing it? Do you have a scenario in your head that you replay over and over? If you had a submissive kneeling in front of you right now, what would you want to do the most? For example, one of my common fantasies includes locking up a male submissive in a chastity cage until he meets fitness or weight-loss goals of my choosing.
