Role Play

[petboy]

I dont know what I consider it now after reading some of these posts. I do kind of consider it role playing I guess becaus I only play like that privately. I guess whatever you want to describe it as will work. Dosent matter.

I have never considered it "role-playing". What we did had a flow to it and took on a life of it's own. Sometimes it was furious and fast and other times slow and drawn out deliciously. But never did I consider it playing a role. I look at more as a case of being allowed to be who I really am. Some how He enhanced that part of me.

I want to share about myself
At work I am submissive meaning if the boss pushes I will submit right or wrong
In any push comes to shove situation I think I would submit before fighting
In basic Training for the Infantry I surpassed all phyicals challenges and graduated top of class- But I played sick the day they practiced hand-to-hand combat
To womem I am more of a beggar then taker
LOL
Yest if I were to roleplay my first choice would be to Top a women really top
then later be bottom
any one else anywhere?

Sure, I'll role play ... but you were asking about the Dom part of me. I'm not role playing, that's who I am.

But when we switch so I can get on the receiving end of some of this stuff, that's role playing. I really try to get feeling subby, and all I can do is pretend.

Yeah, I know the difference.

I suppose, techinically, it is role play - it is our role, and we are playing (we use that term instead of scening) ... but by our definition of role-play, no. It is who we are, and what we are. Role-play, for us, would be medical, cop, teacher/student, etc. For some people, D/s is role-play, because it is not who they are all the time ... but for us, it's who we are day in and day out, to some extent or another - it's never "off" entirely, and role-play does get turned off and on.

LOL, why try to improve on such perfectly worded a response....this is who we are and the only way it is role play is the same as you described as in it is our fulltime role, not an assumed act for particular moments in time.

For me it is (still?) a role playing. I like for my bf to dominate me in bed, but not in out whole relationship. We have only started doing a bit of bondage, spanking, domination a couple of month ago. I don't know yet if this really is something for us, if it's only "playing" or if it develops into a "real-life" thing. Time will show, we are ready to find out and have fun along the way. And if it stays on the role-playing side, that's fine as well!

The whole point is to have fun!

Well, it depends on who you are. In a permanent relationship, or a long term one, sometimes there's more than "fun" (in the trivial sense of "who cares?") going on .... and for Us that makes it even more "fun."

I have always been a very dominant man, in social relationships and intimate relationships. It comes as natural to me as breathing. At one point, before I found my girlfriend, I thought being a "Dom", and perhaps with others it was, was role-playing. My impression of being a "Dom" was yeilding whips and chains, torturing and screwing the girl. When I met my girlfriend, her submission to me, my desire to protect, guide, love, among other things, was overwhelming. Somehow in my life's journey, I realized that being a "Dom" wasn't about, the spankings, the brutal fucks, the kinky things ......... well, now that got way off topic.

No, I don't role play who I am, I just am.

 

[Netzach]

Always? No.

Never?

No.

I've had great fun as governess, pony trainer, dog, boy, Daddy, perverted uncle, perverted aunt, Mommy, Teacher and probably other things I'm forgetting about. But I don't *need* any of those in order to do what I like to do anyway. I just can't imagine denying myself the fun, either.

I have never been able to enjoy roleplay, although if D wishes it, I will try my best. So far she hasn't put me in that position. I just have a hard time being something or someone that I am not, even though I try to enjoy it for what it is.

Ponygirl is one form of roleplay that I have a secret longing for, although thinking of actually doing it causes me to grow cold with dread. Weird to desire something that makes me feel that way.

Being her slave or her pet or her property is a role I play in her life, but it is not roleplay as I traditionally define the word. I have many roles in her life, and her in mine...friend, submissive, slave, pet, domestic maid, etc. All are a part of me and all are natural.

I roleplay with my boyfriend. But then again, we're both geeks and met at a live roleplay event. (For those how don't know, imagine Dungeons and Dragons played by people who dress up and hit eachother with foam swords.) We have roles and play them during time-in and are ourselves during time-out.

When we play in the bedroom (and other places *wink*) things flow more smoothly, because it's a part of us. Not some character we play.

 

[O'Mac]

What my partner and I do is not something I would generally refer to as role-playing. Role-playing to me sounds a little like pertending or acting out a character serperate from our real selves. As far as I'm concerned, we are still the same people with the same ideals and thoughts, and our role that we take on when together is just one of many facets within our personalities.

I suppose it's more a question of "Why do we need to act like different people?" for the two of us. There is no change of who we are, just a change of how we interact.

So many very wonderful replies here. Very diverse and well explained. There is a time for role play in scene. It is difficult to take a long term D/s lifestyle relationship seriously if it is all role play. Yet without at the very least the occassional foray into role play it could over time become a bit too predictable.

Puppy play is one quite common form of role play...anyone have any puppy play experiences they would like to share or puppy play fantasy they would like to enact?

 

[A Desert Rose]

... Submitting or bottoming...role play?

No, Ma'am.

I can't role play at something that is the essence of what I am.

I've done this scene from both sides. It's probably, if you force me to admit it, my favorite scene ever as a bottom, a really intense release from the intellect. I've always been praised for my intellect, my self-worth has always been tied up in how "smart" I am, etc. etc. and being a dog is an opportunity to be totally utterly stupid, to inhabit a zen kind of blank brain. When I go for an animal role, I really go for something animal, it's about that transformation rather than the gear or the sexualzation factor. I also found it very interesting to be totally dependent on my top, whether I behaved "well" or "poorly" had nothing to do with me, and everything to do with how well I was being instructed or controlled -- a dog will only be as good as its owner.

That's the thing I bring to any kind of animal scene as a Top -- the dog/pony only does what I tell it or make it or convince it to do. I really believe these scenes are about releasing the bottom from responsibility/control as much as possible.

~~smile~~ I am delighted that you have added your voice in My thread. From personal experience I know the beauty of your natural submission and the honor you gave Me by accepting a small taste of My Domination. A memory created together.

I've never thought about it this way. Maybe these thoughts will help me be more comfortable in the role should it be required of me.

This has given me alot to think about,

Thanks Netzach for the insight into something I have not experienced

Very interesting perspective and nicely done from both sides of the leash. I also find this play to be stimulating as a Domme as the responsibility really does become all Mine to be both creative and authentic while ensuring that the animal in question does not try to over play the role in a way that makes them take responsibility for thinking. This type of role play can be very intense or incredibly subtle. Trust and vulnerability go hand in hand and the end result for Me and Mine is generally contentment and appreciation.

As always I enjoy Your perspectives in these conversations ~~smile~~

honestly, the thought or roleplay does not appeal to us (at least, I know it doesn't appeal to me, and I don't think it appeals to Holly). Animal play in particular doesn't really hold much appeal for us, because well ... we have enough animals without our boys acting like them, I guess. It just isn't something that has ever held our attention for very long at all.
