This is a weird thing I've noticed - as someone who's always played dominant characters (I'm m/m trash yes, but bear with me).

Players always seem to gravitate towards one role or the other, is that a thing? Like, I have friends who always take on a character with a more submissive personality, even without thinking. But then on the other hand, I have friends who've always played the more dominant role.

It's just sort of interesting that there's a preference - I'm curious as to why people choose between one and the other. Yeah, on one hand, it depends on which character appeals, of course, but there's definitely a preference that comes in before you choose the character you want to play, too - and of course, what role you write in threads.

I naturally gravitate towards assertive, or at least, nasty bad guys who will fuck everyone's shit up. But that's just my jam.

BASICALLY (wow this got convoluted) anons, do you prefer to play one role or the other - and why?
