How do you make someone feel safe with you and trust you? Truly, listen to her. Connections are made when you are empathetic and kind before and after the session. Furthermore, with strong connections, the submissive can feel free to give a lot of important information so that the session flows and is successful. Noticing a submissive's body language also made me aware of honest communication. For example, warning that I would change the position performing sadistic activities when I notice that my tiredness is greater than my pleasure. This is genuine care! Keeping a submissive beneath me means authority and respect and this is far from practices that offend my sub's essence and values. Finally, working this short period as a dominatrix (I still have a lot to learn), I realized how exciting respect is and how important knowing someone else's limits and establishing valid connections is. Being domineering was essential in my process of self-discovery and healing. Fetishize yourself! _____________________________ #fetish
