OinkOinkPiggy:
Lately I’ve had this desire to roleplay as a pig… but not with humiliation or degradation. I want to be a pampered pet piggy whose owner/farmer praises her for how much food she eats and how big she’s becoming. I can’t find anything like this online; I can only find stuff where you’re insulted and that kind of thing is not fun for me.
Please tell me this isn’t that weird!
This isn't weird or uncommon at all!! There are LOTS of dom-types out there who are into this exact kind of play and content.
Heck, I'm the kind of sub who likes the more overt (not degrading) type of play and still love some fun praise, soft-dom, dumpling interaction thrown in.
If you're struggling to connect with others who can give you this experience, two things to consider:
1) interrogate *your* desires. This doesn't mean judge yourself for it, but get to the root of *why* they turn your crank so much. Such as is it the nurturing and care that appeals to you? Is it that someone else is doing the mental load of considering your diet? Are you a words of affirmation person and thrive on praise and compliments? All of the above? The motivation that underlies it can really help you have productive conversations with prospective doms and play partners!
2) Always important to remember that D/s is an *exchange* of trust - both parties should have an active interest in pleasing the other in ways they *both* find pleasurable (eg the common ground and overlap of what I mentioned in point 1). Lots of people think they are "doms" but are just abusive, fatphobic, toxic buttwipes. If you get the vibe that you aren't being heard or seen as a person, always nope out. Every time!
