I am newly-single and am looking to explore this side of my sexuality. I find both being dominant and submissive a turn-on - and would like to try new things/meet new people.

Completely new to all of this, so just a couple of things about me:

On the one hand, the idea of asserting power and control over submissive women is a thrill and I think men are naturally dominant compared to women. That's a matter of biology. 

But, that said, I do find subverting that order of things exciting and am also looking to serve/be humiliated and punished by a genuine domme.

I do not intend to make BDSM the centrepiece of my life - it's more of a foray into the unknown for me, at the moment. 

In the real world, I am educated (and would expect any potential play partners to be intelligent) and have a successful career...
