Talk:Submissive

I've found having "top" and "bottom" as catch-all terms quite useful:

"top" - someone who is a controler, dominant and/or sadist "bottom" - someone who is a controlee, submissive and/or masochist

                 These used to have slightly different meanings in the
                 gay community.  In this context they are just generic
                 terms that do not imply whether the player is heavily 
                 into D&S or not.

By definition:

 all masters are dominants
 all dominants are tops
 all slaves are submissives
 all submissives are bottoms

but not necessarily vice versa
