Dojo Leader, or Dominatrix? A Field Guide

Reader Rory Miller asks,
“What is the difference between martial artists and BDSM players?”

To minimize any confusion, I have compiled this handy reference chart.

Title Dominatrix
(or, “Mistress”)
Karate Sensei
(or, “Master”)
Costume Exotic, black Exotic, white
Essential terminology Violet wand
Stiletto
Gyaku zuki
Neko ashi dachi
Fees Pay by the hour
(extra charge for incalls)
Pay by the month
(discount with quarterly contract)
Typical guidance “You’ve been naughty” “You lack discipline”
Training Spankings Push-ups
Expected response Ow! Hai!
Iconic action figure Black Canary Barbie
Eagle Eye G.I. Joe
Silly role-playing, or serious lifestyle? Painfully serious! Dead serious!
