I have recently been intrigued by the bdsm scene.  It is something completely new to me.  I don't fancy strap-on or ass play, humiliation or things like that, but I like the idea of the woman being in control.  I have seen ladies advertising sensual domination.  From what I can gather, it is "softer" than the kink stuff, but what exactly is "sensual" domination?

Not your traditional, or average Mistress who just humilates you instead I would use you for my personal pleasure.

If you need more details feel free to pm me, or read some of my reviews.

There are a few (very few) ladies who are full service GFE escorts and who deliver their service in a dominant way or blend in some bdsm activities.  Such ladies sometimes use the term 'sensual domination'.  I've also heard them referred to as 'hybrid' providers and if you do a search, you'll find a discussion about it from a few months ago.  There are several such ladies in San Francisco (where I reside).

In this day and age with so much information flying around on the web and people appropriating terms left and right it really depends on the Mistress. I think it is best to find someone whose website/ad resonates with you and then call to see if you feel she understands what you're looking for.

Sensual domination typically entails playing with sensation and erotic energy. Some people think it is a euphemism for more sexual contact however that is not always true.

For example my long time friend and a Mistress I co-Top frequently with is Mistress Kendra Knight. Playing alongside her got me more interested in and comfortable with using sensuality- she is just an extremely powerful yet sensual physical presence. She may be warmly massaging her slave (or having him massage her as I saw in the hot tub just last night ) but there is no denying who is in charge!

Other women like to use sensual tease, and often tease & denial in their scenes to take control. Imagine a lap dance with a bossy bitch- or while you're in bondage and she could torture you if she wanted.

It also depends on what you find sensual.

There's no cookie-cutter answer in my opinion- but could describe a general tone I suppose... and I know quite a few dominant ladies

I think we've covered this topic in earlier posts, but it could be a simple as a beautiful woman commanding you to strip off your clothes (while she's still wearing hers) and get down on your knees before her.  Just the dynamic of having someone stand over you, clothed, while you are naked and kneeling before them is really hot.  If she's good, she'll probably tell you in advance E-X-A-C-T-L-Y what she's going to do to you, before she does it, so that you are erect with anticipation.  Maybe body worship.  Maybe tickling.  Maybe play with ice cubes.  Maybe having you dress up like a slut.  There's a litany of things you can do that are considered BDSM that don't involve pain.  Negotiate.  Explore.  Have fun!

If that's the definition of Sensual Domination, is there a further level, say "Sexual Domination"?

Wherein the subject would be put through the things you listed above, but then including various and sundry sex acts that are under the control of the dominating partner?

Sounds hot to me.....

Yes, sensual play is not corporal...

Depending on the limits of your mistress it can be more above serving her but as someone else said it can be dress up with elements of body worship....

So Much Fun!

I'm a great fan, and some sensual dommes have their script and/or like to chose the activities, most will discuss with you beforehand what your interest are.  Common though are "forced DATY" with the woman holding your head between her thighs firmly or forced DATY/ass worship while she is atop in a facesitting position (and pinning your arms down with her legs or your arms are tied to bedpost, foot worship, you massage her, sometimes light BDSM such as light spanking, nipple clamps, clothespins on ball sack, tease and denial for most of the session with release at end where she controls the timing, light smothering....but usually not pain, humiliation, scat play - and use of a strap on seems to be used by some.

I agree with the above posters...I am very into Sensual Dom.. In a small nutshell, you are there for MY amusement..A living play toy No pain, but I will make you grovel....
