(Anonymous) 2021-04-15 01:28 am (UTC)(link)I very literally thought they were the same thing.
Is it bossy and obedient vs. penetrate-or vs. penetrate-ed?
I really thought I already knew this!

(Anonymous) 2021-04-15 02:23 am (UTC)(link)But if you tag a character as a Dom purely because they top, when they literally don't do anything sexually Dominant in the fic, then that's going to be misleading to people who are actively looking for D/s fics. They're looking for a dynamic of dominance and submission, not just two characters having penetrative sex.

(Anonymous) 2021-04-15 02:53 am (UTC)(link)Granted, in a lot of yaoi manga tradition, the top does have a lot of Dom traits and the bottom has a lot of sub traits, but it's not a one-to-one equal correlation. Throw in the way fandom likes to say they hate the seme/uke dynamic but then writes the same thing in their fic and labels it Dom/sub, well...the waters are very muddy, there. You're not wrong to be confused.
