domina
Lady of house
A domina is a woman who takes the dominant role in BDSM practices, controlling and directing a submissive partner.
The term emphasizes formality and authority more than the casual *dom*: The domina instructed her client to kneel.
Professional dominas offer their services commercially, distinct from lifestyle practitioners.
The male equivalent is *dominus*.
