Switch

In BDSM and kink communities, a switch is someone who enjoys both dominant and submissive roles, depending on the situation, the partner, or their mood. Switches are not uncommitted or indecisive — they have a genuine and flexible orientation that allows them to experience both sides of a power dynamic. In the broader lifestyle community, switch can also refer to someone who is comfortable in multiple roles during group play. Being a switch is a valid and common identity within kink and lifestyle communities.
