--- Quote from: louisev on September 07, 2006, 05:05:28 am ---Their relationship is, for the most part, based upon Ennis being the top and Ellery being the bottom, with mild dominance and submission elements to it. I say "mild" because a true Dom/sub relationship doesn't general permit for switching, and Ennis has gradually become more and more interested in bottoming and oral sex. However, I don't personally see this as a departure from Annie Proulx's story since Ennis topped rather aggressively in her story on their first sexual encounter, and I merely extrapolated from that, and from Ennis's other aggressive tendencies.
However, they do not carry this mild dom/sub aspet into other parts of their relationship.

Lousie,
Hallelujah and thank you for that explanation of top/bottom and dom/sub! Elsewhere I've tried to explain that till my fingers were sore from typing, and some people just don't get it. I hope coming from you, they will.

louisev:
It has been rather widely discussed that my fic went into the far reaches of kinkiness. However, in the "kinks lists" I have seen in my travels, the Laramie Saga shows quite a mild form of dom/sub roleplaying (completely for fun and pleasure), and toy play (completely optional to their 'normal' sex lives.)

Kinky? Hell, in my crowd that's practically vanilla. ;D
Good writing of what it is, though.

Jeff, that is exactly my point: for gay men who are out... it IS practically vanilla. For people still trembling on the verge or still in the closet, it is wild, titillating, and mega-kinky. I opted for mild, consent-based bondage and play, because to me this is about as far as Ennis would go with his natural dominance.

Well, it's very HOT to me but certainly not mega-kinky!!
