Dominatrix
Dominatrix is a term that refers to a woman who takes the dominant role in BDSM activities. A dominatrix might be of any sexual orientation, but her orientation does not necessarily limit the genders of her submissive partners. The role of a dominatrix may not even involve physical pain toward the submissive; her domination can be verbal, involving humiliating tasks, or servitude.
Etymology[edit]
The term "dominatrix" is little-used within the non-professional BDSM scene. The term "domme" is a coined pseudo-French female variation of the slang dom (short for dominant). It stems from the Latin words "dominus" = master, "domina" = mistress. The pronunciation is identical to the term "dom", by analogy to one-syllable French-derived words like femme or blonde.
Professional vs. personal[edit]
A professional dominatrix and a submissive male spend for the majority of their time in a professional setting. However, many professional dominatrices are also lifestyle dominatrices - that is, in addition to paid sessions with submissive clients they engage in unpaid recreational sessions or may incorporate power exchange within their own private lives and relationships.
