Dominant / submissive Agreement
A consensual power-exchange agreement
This agreement sets out the terms of a consensual Dominant and submissive dynamic between the two adults named below. Both enter into it freely, of their own choice, and of sound mind. It is a tool for communication and shared understanding — it is not a legally binding contract, and it does not transfer or remove anyone's rights.
- The Dominant accepts responsibility for leading the dynamic with care, attention, and respect for the submissive's wellbeing, and agrees never to use their role to cause harm beyond what has been agreed.
- The submissive agrees to follow the Dominant's lead within the limits set out below, and to communicate honestly about their comfort, needs, and boundaries at all times.
- This dynamic is built on trust. Authority is given by the submissive as a gift and can be reclaimed at any time. It is never taken.
- Honesty. Both parties speak openly about desires, fears, and limits, and neither hides discomfort to please the other.
- Respect. The dynamic exists alongside mutual respect as equals. Roles describe the play, not the worth of either person.
- Care. The Dominant attends to the submissive's physical and emotional state during and after any activity, including aftercare.
- Discretion. What happens between the parties stays private unless both agree otherwise.
Consent is enthusiastic, informed, and ongoing. It may be withdrawn at any moment by either party. The safe word and stop word below take effect immediately whenever they are used, with no question or penalty.
- Neither party will take part while impaired by alcohol or drugs to a degree that affects judgment or the ability to consent.
- Each party will share any relevant health information — injuries, conditions, triggers — that could affect safety.
- The safe word and stop word are honoured instantly. Using them is never punished and never held against the person who used them.
This agreement is valid from and continues until either party revokes it.
Either party may revoke this agreement at any time, for any reason, by . Withdrawal of consent ends the dynamic immediately and is always respected.
