An odd question maybe but recently I received a conflicting understanding (semantics) of the word ~Switch~

1. Switch as in Role (Dominant or Submissive / Master or Salve)
Or
2. Switch as in switching sexual orientation e.g. straight or gay (lesbian)

My understanding is the first; switch in the role. Since sexual orientation
is defined separately.

You can't switch orientations, the closest you can get is bi/pansexual, but that only means you're always attracted to both men and women (and everything in between). I've never heard of anyone "switching" between gay and straight.

I've heard of "switch hitter" as a phrase to mean bisexual/heteroflexible/homoflexible, rather than being strictly gay or straight. Mostly, though, I've heard "switch" as meaning you can be both Dominant and submissive.

Nor have I
I switch but it does depend on the mood and sometimes the setting! If I am a tad drunk I tend to be on top so to speak
