What Is a Pleasure Dom?

A pleasure dom is someone who enjoys domination through pleasure. They receive sexual and psychological gratification from giving sexual and psychological pleasure to their sub.

Their power comes from the helpless surrender of the sub, who worships with orgasm and gratitude for sexual ecstasy.

If a submissive often serves their dominant, it might be said that a pleasure dom rules their sub, through service. They receive pleasure from giving pleasure.

A pleasure dom is part of a BDSM power exchange relationship. But they prefer to punish with pleasure, rather than with pain. Sometimes pleasure dom relationships or scenes are referred to as “painless BDSM.” This is because a pleasure dom is aroused by pleasure rather than pain, or tops someone who enjoys bondage and discipline or other kinky sex, but does not enjoy pain.

A pleasure dom receives fulfillment by dominating sexually and mentally, and by administering intense pleasure, not pain. The whole experience of a pleasure dom’s submissive might be described as “more pleasure than they can handle.”

How to Be a Pleasure Dom

If you get an exquisite sense of control and arousal from giving pleasure and want a partner’s complete surrender or submission to your arsenal of ecstasy, you may be a pleasure dom. You can become a pleasure dom, and bring your sub to the wild heights of your imagination.

Discuss Boundaries and Consent

As with any sexual encounter or relationship, including kink and BDSM, consent is essential. Talking about your desires and needs together and becoming aware of boundaries, whether flexible boundaries or hard boundaries, helps you design the kind of experience the pleasure dom and submissive will both enjoy.

Boundaries and consent also continue to be communicated through exploration and experimentation, as simply as “no, I don’t like this” or using a safe word or safe gesture during play.

Discussing fantasies and preferences before connecting sexually helps direct pleasure dom play in a way that will work for everyone involved.

There are BDSM contracts between dominant and submissive lovers that can be used in any play or relationship. They are often used in BDSM when pain or risk are involved, to make sure that all play is risk aware and includes informed consent. But a BDSM contract can be a good idea for anyone. Talk about it and see if a contract can help clarify both of your needs and desires.

Some forms of pleasure dom play are very intense, such as forced orgasms, and some pleasure dom power exchange relationships extend to other kinds of submission or into daily life. These are some of the circumstances where a BDSM contract can be of benefit.

A pleasure dom also learns a great deal through observation. What kind of porn does your sub regularly consume? What kind of play makes them writhe and wriggle?

Maintain Dominance and Control

A submissive does not need to be a masochist or to crave pain to want total domination. A pleasure dom is still the boss. There are many BDSM relationship styles that are all about power exchange without pain.

The nurturing caregiver role is a form of domination and authority. Mommy Doms and Daddy Doms are affectionate and nurturing, but they are still the authority. Being a pleasure dom is no different.

You give pleasure instead of pain, but you are still the one to make the rules and be responsible for your sub. A pleasure dom needs to maintain dominance and control.

Provide Pampering Aftercare

Having so many orgasms is exhausting emotionally and physically. As a pleasure dom, you want to provide pampering during aftercare. Give lots of snuggling and physical affection. Nurture your sub with hydration and fresh fruits or by bathing them. Cuddle and nap together for restoration.

A pleasure dom loves to give pleasure. Orgasms are essential but so are sensual touches. There are so many kinds of physically pleasurable sensations. Explore them together through sensation play.

A pleasure dom thinks about different kinds of touch, like stroking, massage, warm oil, washing hair, gentle tickling, licking, kissing, running water, and different fabrics like silk, satin, and leather.

Think of the other senses too when it comes to sensation play—ambient music, exotic perfumes and scents, the taste of strawberries.

Light spanking does not hurt at all. It is simply a sensation and form of touch. A pleasure dom can use light spanking by hand or with a beautiful flogger, and just keep the momentum and force mild.
