What is your level of comfort for roles in an erotic roleplay?

Poll - Total Votes: 62

I have never roleplayed and have no idea what this post is about but I am making a vote anyway.

Relationships suck so for me it has to be strangers meeting and anything goes.

I prefer strangers meeting and going from there.

I like to roleplay as friends who have a common background and we finally get together for some fun.

I like to play discovery roles of first love and first sexual encounters.

I like to play colleagues and associates who discover a common attraction and go from there.

I like naughty roles of being with someone who shouldn't be with me sexually.

I prefer naughty roles that are taboo and should never happen but it's just fantasy so let's go!

I like more than one of the choices above because I like variety.

I am always the dominant character in the roleplays I write.

I am always the submissive character in the roleplays I write.

I am versatile and will play dominant and submissive roles in the roleplays I write.

I like short responses that are fast and have just enough writing to get a response from partner.

I like long descriptive responses that are like reading a story and being there.

I usually write short responses no matter how long the partner's writing is.

I write long responses and dislike when the partner only responds with a sentence or less.

I will work with my writing partner to make sure the story goes for a long time.

I only like stories that can be finished under 2 hours.

If my partner writes something I don't like I will leave the story without saying anything.

I find it easy to find good writing partners for the roleplays I like to share.

I have a difficult time finding a good writing partner for the roleplays I want to share.

I usually end up writing the roleplays by myself because my partner won't do what I want.

I have never roleplayed before but now I want to see if it is something I would enjoy.

It is anonymous so I will be as rude as I want to be

It might be anonymous but I know how to treat people properly and do.

Roleplay just never worked for me now I write my own stories.

Erotic roleplay starts with a backstory for each character and a scene where the two characters meet with a setting and a situation that has them interact with the story going on with the creativity and initiative of the writing partners, using what each other writes as inspiration for the next thing to write. But the primary structure that must be agreed to is what roles the characters will be, who they are and how they relate to each other.

The question for this poll is, what is the naughtiest role pairing you are willing to play, can imagine yourself playing, and possibly have already played. Keeping it all anonymous of course, let's see where people are on the spectrum from strangers meeting to the most taboo.

Fun survey that you can vote for as many as apply to you. Leave a comment and maybe there might be some good leads for starting something new with someone new. Have fun with this 😊

So many options and yet I don’t see one that fits me. Role play is tricky if it is with someone you don’t know it can go off the rails badly and the end result is alienating someone though that was not the intent.

In other scenarios it can become dangerous and end up with someone misunderstanding so badly the other person turns to threats in order to make themselves feel safe.

Role playing with strangers very much depends on how it is approached and whether I feel safe in the process. If I feel safe then I am open to a wide range of possibilities. If not then most likely I will shut down and not participate.

But expecting to jump into role play immediately upon contacting me, will be an immediate shutdown. I’m not someone who will be intimate with a stranger without some bit of interaction first. And again it very much depends on how it is approached.

A person doesn’t have to be a friend first but being a complete stranger I could never go for ‘anything goes’ not until a good connection is established and I feel safe in exploring taboo topics or other risky situations. Complete trust has to be developed and that takes a while to establish.

@Luckylu Would be interested to know how it could be a more inclusive poll. I completely agree that there is a period before beginning a roleplay where the potential writing partners need to become familiar with each other, preferences, likes and dislikes, expectations, possible character traits, potential storyline plots and direction for storyline elements and much more determined prior to any backstory and starter written for review and possibly editing to be done so it is right to begin and continue.

My preference is to write on a platform where threads are separate for this kind of discussion from the storyline to avoid any disruption to the flow of the story.

Compatibility between partners on many levels is also high on the list of things of importance to begin and continue to write together. In a real way a friendship can evolve from the joint writing venture and I find those friendships to in many ways be truer than most others with the commonality of wanting to make the writing better and the story memorable.
