ORIGINAL: Level Good evening, irish [:D]. A bratty submissive, or "submissive", is one that does not behave in a way that is pleasing to the dominant, not due to lack of training, or effort, but due to lack of respect or concern for not only the dominant, but for the relationship, and perhaps for themselves. Mouthy....... fickle........ sloppy in manner..........melodramatic..... I love teasing and playing, and I don't think I'm some humorless jackass; but there is a line, and especially once that line has been clearly marked, fun can dissolve into brattiness fairly quickly. I'll second this. And yes the root cause is indeed selfishness. The brat is more concerned with themselves than with those around them. Their opinion, their ideas, their attitude, their desires, etc. all are more important to them than that of anyone else around them. And to really ruffle some feathers, they're not submissive, they're playing at it. Submission centers around the act of submitting to another's authority, and by its nature involves a degree of humility. It requires an awareness of and consideration for others. Brats, on the other hand, are more focused inward on their own desires rather than outward on how their actions affect others. They characteristically lack humility, lack consideration for how their actions affect others, they are often rude. And as can be seen in this thread, some brats even take pride in that lack of consideration for others. There's nothing submissive in that. Most brats I've encountered I can put in one of two categories. One is really just a Bottom looking for kinky thrills. A BDSM fetish bottom is not the same thing as a submissive. Now there's nothing wrong with being a Bottom, but you have some parading as submissives when in fact they aren't (and they'll quickly and rudely challenge you if you disagree with them). The second type wants to be "forced" into submission, these are also called SAMs, but they're really just another form of brat. They're still trying to get their own way on their terms alone. Their focus is not on pleasing the dominant, its on pleasing themselves, on getting their desires fed. In any case, I have no tolerance for a brat. A submissive is here to serve, if that isn't you... then you are not a submissive and why are you here.
