==Gender==
 
  
The term '''sub''' is gender-independent.  To distinguish gender, the terms [[malesub]] and [[femsub]] are common.
 
 
==Variations==
 
 
People are clearly entitled to call themselves whatever they want and the term '''sub''' or ''submissive'' is sometimes mixed up with both ''bottom'' and [[slave]]. Indeed, a Bottom or a slave may well be submissive.
 
 
Some people enjoy being both sub and [[Dom]].  Such people are termed [[Switch]]es.
 
 
==Role==
 
 
'''Sub''' is a term used to conote a person who gives up control and gets satisfaction from aspects of submission which may include serving or being used by the dominant.  '''Sub'''s often are turned on by suspense, vulnerability, and/or giving up responsbility.  They don't dictate the scene except in very general terms.  Such a person could also be a [[masochist]] or [[Bottom (BDSM)|bottom]] but this is not always the case.
 
 
The relationship between a sub and their Dom may be very transitory or can be permanent. Some subs are married to their Dom. Long term relationships are known as [[D/s]] (Dominant/submissive) relationships.
