Maledom, or male dominance refers to BDSM activities where the dominant partner is a male. A male dominant is sometimes called a dom for short.

The gender of the submissive partner is unspecified; it can be either a female or another male.

[edit] Maledom art and literature

Maledom BDSM fiction began with the works of the Marquis de Sade and is featured in novels such as the Story of O and the works of John Norman and Adrian Hunter. Maledom is also a growing adult film genre.

A few spanking magazines specialize in M/M (e.g. Bound and Gagged, Red Tails) or M/F (e.g. Blushes, Scorpion) art and stories.

[edit] Maledom play

Maledom play is very common; in many male-female BDSM partnerships the dominant partner is the male and the submissive partner is the female. M/F scenarios typically make use of the traditional roles of men and women in a patriarchic society; the man being an authority figure and the woman submitting to him.

The Gorean subculture is almost exclusively maledom/femsub.
