There are two styles of interaction that are related to sadomasochism (S-M). These are bondage and discipline (B-D) and dominance and submission (D-S). Bondage and discipline refers to the use of physically restraining devices or psychologically restraining commands as a central aspect of sexual interactions. These devices or commands may enforce obedience and servitude without inducing any physical pain. Dominance and submission refers to interaction that involves a consensual exchange of power; the dominant partner uses his or her power to control and sexually stimulate the submissive partner. Both B-D and D-S encompass a variety of specific interactions that range from atypical to paraphiliac.
