(Anonymous) 2026-03-20 12:44 am (UTC)(link)Can't think of explicitly sub to their dom songs, but most love songs tend to take the submissive-r role even if it's not in a D/s relationship and are usually singing toward someone that they pedestal. They want them, they need them, they give all of themselves and all of the power to their object of affection...
I wonder how much of it is the reverse too. Dominance being relegated to creepy rapey things and seen as inherently sexual and toxic in the toxic masculinity way, when it doesn't have to be.

I think there’s a lot about what’s left unsaid too. I think certain “creepy” songs get divisive because some listeners are hearing it as a genuine manipulation and crossing of boundaries, while others are hearing it as a sort of dominance game. Making it unambiguously non-creepy and non-abusively-controlling but still clearly dominant … all that in a single song’s lyrics feels like something you’d have to go out of your way to finesse.
