A dominatrix is a woman who takes on a dominant role in BDSM (Bondage, Discipline, Sadism, and Masochism) practices, often involving power exchange and control over a submissive partner. She may engage in various activities, including bondage, discipline, and role-playing, typically within a consensual framework. Dominatrixes often work in professional settings, offering their services to clients seeking to explore their fantasies and desires. The relationship is based on trust, consent, and mutual understanding of boundaries.
