The true art of domination: Why submissive trust is everything in BDSM

It’s been over 10 years since Fifty Shades of Grey came out, but the misconceptions it spewed about sexual domination and submission linger in the minds of many. 

For a lot of people, the idea of dominating someone in the bedroom means owning them, controlling them, having complete power to do anything you want, with the submissive being helpless. 

This pop culture hit has poisoned the idea of S&M for people who don’t know any better, with a poor portrayal of both doms and subs. The cultural impact is felt even years later.

Christian Grey, the supposed dominator, stalks Anastasia, breaks into her home, accosts her friends, and constantly crosses boundaries, trying to dominate her whole life, not just the sex between them.
