Others indicated that an interest in both positions did not preclude a preference towards one.

“ who spends time in both roles,” wrote one kinky lesbian femme, “but not just ‘she fucks me then I fuck her quickly afterwards’ but someone who enjoys equally spending time in each role.” Preferring One, But Being Down For Both So, Being a “Switch” Can Mean… Doing a Little Bit of Both I noticed that in many areas, the percentage of switches interested in a certain sexual act or dating behavior was usually just slightly below the interest of tops (for top-associated) things, or of bottoms (for bottom-associated things). WHAT SWITCHES LIKE TO DO IN BED: Fingering (vaginal penetration) 90.5% like giving, 84% like receiving // Oral sex (genital): 88.3% like giving, 79.9% like receiving // Strap-on penetration (vaginal): 56.32% like giving, 54.05% like receiving // Vaginal Fisting: 19.9% like giving, 18% like receiving // Fingering (external genital touch): 90.53% like giving, 84.27% like receiving // Nipple Play: 86.4% like giving, 74% like receiving // Fingering (anal penetration): 22.78% like giving, 14.05% like receiving. The biggest disparities of that nature were for vaginal fingering (13%), genital oral sex (11%), nipple play (12.5%) and anal (8.7%). Of course, there are plenty of sexual acts that aren’t easily defined by topping/bottoming, although top/bottom dynamics can absolutely be present in side-by-side grinding or even mutual masturbation - maybe this is less so when switches are involved, maybe not! Who can say!ĭespite a stated equal interest in giving and receiving most sexual acts, there were a few acts for which the percentage of switches who were down for giving exceeded the number who were up for receiving. There was obviously more consensus here than for tops and bottoms as defining “switch” rests heavily on pre-declared definitions of “top” and “bottom.” Switches were described as being interested in: topping and bottoming, giving and receiving, fucking and getting fucked, being the aggressor and the submissive, having control and not having it, giving and receiving pleasure, leading and following. However, the term “versatile” or “vers” tends to be employed in those contexts as often as “switch.” (Most see “versatile” and “switch” as interchangeable, others don’t.) Tops: 12% // Bottoms: 14.3% // Switches: 51.6% // None of the Above: 13.4% // I’m Not Sure: 8.9% What Is Switching?īefore queer women’s culture adopted top/bottom as terminology relevant to non-kinky sex, the terms were primarily used by gay men, or in kink or BDSM contexts by both straight and LGBTQ+ people. How Many Switches Are Out There?ĭespite all the talk of tops and bottoms within the queer community, our survey revealed that people who identify specifically as tops or bottoms are in the minority overall.

Each week’s data builds on last week’s, we’ve all had a great nerdy sexy time with this and will continue to do so. I’ve been going through the data gradually over the course of the month - next week we’ll talk about sub-identities and the week after that we’ll talk about not-previously-discussed interesting trends in the data as a whole.
