power bottom

Dominant receptive partner

A power bottom is the receptive partner in anal sex who takes an assertive or controlling role despite being penetrated.

The term originated in gay male culture but has spread to broader usage.

It plays on the assumption that the "bottom" is passive—a power bottom subverts this by directing the encounter's pace and intensity.

He's a total power bottom—he runs the show.
