Is there a gender-neutral term for a dom? I see dom as more masculine and domme as more feminine, but Caretaker doesn’t fit my role.

instructor144:

“Dom” is not a gendered word. Know what you call a female (or other) Dom? “A Dom.”

Anyone out there saying we should call Submissive men “Su-bro-ssives?”  No?  Then there’s already a perfect gender-neutral term for Doms: Dom.

Distinguishing women who are Doms with gendered terms like “Domme” or (dear god!) “dominatrix” is about as classy as shitting in an outhouse or dying of cholera.  We don’t say “electricianne” and we don’t say “pilotess” and I’m pretty sure even Jordan fucking Peterson would laugh in your face if you called Megan Rapinoe an “athletrix.”  

So what the fuck is wrong with calling a woman a Dom again?
