I got a question that might sound stupid but can you explain me what are the "tops and bottoms" cause they are terms that i 've never heard.
Thank you in advance for the piece of enlightment

I use Top and bottom to refer to people in scene who do the actions and recieve the actions respectively. I usually use them referring to people who have no inclination for D/s (Dominance/submission) but are in it for the play.
Ie: with my play partners, I am either their Top or bottom, with my slave, I am her Master, and with my subs I am their Dom. Just basic distinction for me, because often in my case, it is often difficult to explain being a masochistic Dominant. Sometimes questions of whether or not that means I am a Dominant arise.
Top and bottom can refer to anyone in scene regardless of whether or not they have a power exchange relationship who are giving or recieving sensation.
In vanilla terms it means the person who is doing the screwing and the person being screwed respectively.
It is however, very difficult to be both a Top and a bottom at the same time, but it is possible (as evidenced by the flogging conga line I had with my best friend from WPB and a local friend).
