AUTHOR’S NOTES:
Note #1: Thank you for checking out my stories.
I usually aim for a more subtle/implicit > explicit route with bdsm stories. Bdsm can be a very intimate expression of affection, without the emphasis being on extreme physical violence/pain/humiliation. There’s lots more to the erotic life than explicitness ;)

Note #2: This is the last story I wrote for PLAY, the BDSM-themed collection in my second erotic (not pornographic) anthology, Primal Scream.
I’ve combined the exploration of gender identity with the concept of ‘switches/switching’ in the BDSM sphere. Enjoy the ride.

PREFACE
(a short
Q&A on the subject of ‘switches’—

Qn: So what’s a switch? What’s with this whole switching thing?
Franklin: I am a switch.
What that means, in the simplest terms, is that I am neither 100% dominant nor 100% submissive. Rather, I have a dominant side, and a submissive side, and at different times I explore different aspects of dominance and submission.
In some parts of the BDSM community, this is greeted with the same derision that might greet someone who says he or she is bisexual in certain corners of the gay and lesbian community—and, I think, for similar erroneous reasons.
The term “switch,” like the term “bisexual,” has a simple, functional definition: You are a switch if you engage at different times in BDSM practices from both a “top” or “dominant” role and from a “bottom” or “submissive” role, just as you are bisexual if you have lovers of both sexes.
Of course, a functional definition can’t tell the whole truth, and a question of sexual identity may not be as straightforward as all that.
Be that as it may, there are people in the BDSM community who will make the preposterous statement that there aren’t “really” any switches, just as there are people in the gay and lesbian communities who make the equally preposterous claim that there aren’t “really” any bisexuals.
