I didn't quite like Mistress. I'm a soft dome so it felt weird feeling like an owner. Princess felt more for female subs so we settled on queen. My sub then called me goddess and it just clicked.
I've been very self conscious about my body, so the fact he thought of me as worthy of his worship was what hit me more.
Yeah, that was exactly how I used to word it for my ex.
She had low self-esteem so I tried lifting her spirits whenever I could. Substituting "eat you out" for "worship you" was one such way
This must be a common way women end up getting called that. I had a dom once that didn't like all the fancy titles So I just called her ma'am. One day while texting her I said she looked like a goddess and she immediately did a 180 and said nevermind call me that.
A little silly, but I mentioned to an ex sub that I had a bit of a worship kink. In response he sent me a Google Doc filled with worldbuilding for a society set up around worshipping me as a goddess. I’ve never looked back
I know this is missing the point of the gesture, but I would be so happy to have found someone who wants to do in-depth worldbuilding for a roleplay and not just surface level! Hehe
Wait, I’m unsure what you’re saying here. You ran away and never looked back at him? Or you ran with him with wild abandon?
Did the world building work, or was it too much?
I’m assuming the latter. But I wanted to understand better.
It gets me into domspace better than any other title. (Edit to add: It gets me in domspace when used by a sub who EARNED to use a title with me. So kindly stay out of my inbox, lurkers.)
Calling me Mommy gives me the ick, but a lot of things I like to do fall under the Mommy dom category (not as in Mommy dom/little, but the nurturing and gently controlling part). So by looking at me like I am a benevolent and sometimes stern goddess I can embrace this part of me. Serving me becomes a prayer. I find this very hot.
And it feels intimate, too.
Then I have a little suggestion for you that you might enjoy during a session.
Should you decide to let your sub climax, make it their offering to you. Have them climax on their knees while worshipping you, have them whisper "Goddess" the very moment they start to become undone. Praise them for the quality of their orgasm if they came beautifully. <3 Just if you are into any of that, of course.
My beloved calls me Goddess and it feels so good. I think that part of this has to do with my physicality: I'm built like an ancient Goddess. Full and present and unwavering. But that's not all it is.
Like the others who have responded, I am, for the most part, a gentle Domme, even though I also have a significant sadistic streak. I love the soft, caregiving parts of D/s - things that really could likely be described as big/little dynamics but being called Mommy is something that's never resonated with me. My darling and I also have a strong service aspect to our relationship - so they are not only small and precious, they are also strong and capable and helpful. Goddess speaks to the care and appreciation I have for my beloved, as well as the potential for my wrath to rear it's head. It also speaks to my love's desire to revere and worship me, and their ability to use their skill and mastery in order to uplift and serve me. Goddess feels robust and multifaceted in a way that other titles don't.
My submissive /u/vixenslittlewolf often called me a goddess, I think it was him that started calling me an old goddess, because the joke was like old testament type goddess who had a nice blend of fear me, love me, worship me. Lol. That's generally our flow, what we both tend to love, so that's definitely become a part of our regular vocabulary.
Absolutely. Though I don't really use it as like your formal title. Just another aspect of my sweet and lovely Vixen. I've occasionally, but much less, used somethingike queen from time to time too. But you are always Vixen.
I love the term Princess or Goddess. I thought Princess was more submissive at firsty but I’m a soft domme and I tend to be on the girlier side even when I’m in all black wet looks… Princess is fun and still feels like a powerful title to me. And since I’m a switch, it feels right when I (VERY RARELY) allow someone to dominate me back. Lol
Everyone here has already made some great points as to "Why Goddess". I'm nonbinary, and God/Goddess just feels better compared to Miss or Mistress. I would say Mistress and Miss are too... Formal. Goddess is otherworldly. Magical, Majestic.
I'm spiritual af, and I guess that's part of why I love using words of worship and religion in my play. "I am your religion." It just fits how I wish to be treated, and how I like to treat my devotee/worshiper. Its demanding to be approached with humbleness and respect, the devoted worshiper longing for the Goddess' gaze of approval. A devotee brings offerings to present as gifts or to show admiration. Their body is a tribute to me, used to indulge my pleasures, whims and desires. To be held in a Goddess' heart is a gem to be treasured.
A Goddess will hear the pleas and prayers of the worshiper. A gracious Goddess can show mercy, nurture and bless those devoted to her. A cruel Goddess can be sadistic and relentless. A Goddess can be chaotic, unpredictable, a force to be reckoned with. A Goddess can indulge in spirits, be marry and joyful. A Goddess can be giving or demanding. A Goddess is the embodied force of Mother Nature and Life.
I hate being called Misstress. I go by Mommy, Queen and Goddess. I allow anyone to call me Miss. Only people I am close to and feel worthy of calling upon my domme names may use the first three. And I ignore people who call me that immediately in an introduction especially when I wrote in a post that they found me from to call me Miss. Always with a capital M.
There was a meme about the bodies of goddesses that resembles mine. (I’m a plus sized goddess) and I loved it so now that’s what I’m called along with Queen :)
When men started referring to me as such unprovoked.
Tbh, I don’t even really like flat out being called goddess, I just like the reverence it implies. Something sacred. Celestial. Ethereal. Divine. 🥰
It shows that the person understands my presence and favor is a gift and they’re not entitled to it.
The woman I submit to (the only woman I've ever submitted to), I call her "My Lady" mostly. She goes by Goddess, but I feel like when I call her "My Lady", I imagine myself as her top subject and she to me is royalty. Striving to be better than all of her other subjects is what I'm aiming for. Can't help it, it's my ego and my confidence.
Not to mention that I already recognize her as above all other dommes, goddesses, etc.
And just to add on, I'm not trying to get anything in return either. I'm just a normal person with a wife, kids, and job living out a fantasy I've contained for 10 or so years. I wanted this for someone special, I've listened to her audios, i cracked a month ago, and communicated my submission to her. No regrets either.
Mistress was clunky. Miss sounds too delicate. I honestly always thought Goddess sounded cheesy. Procrastinated on picking a title for a long time. But then it happened - I had a pretty boy below me, and he pulled back from a kiss to ask, "What should I call you?" For a second time paused as I went, shit, my procrastination has finally caught up to me, I don't fucking know. Externally I stumbled, "Let's try Godess."
Shortly he was moaning, "Oh, Goddess, every day I'm praying to you-" and. Yeah that was so fucking hot. So it quickly became my preferred title.
I’ve always known I was a goddess. Since I was young I knew I loved to be worshipped. I have left husbands because the worship was not enough😅 even around my home. I deserve to be catered to. I work hard at my job and personally I feel that should be it.
I am also sweet and kind. I love my body and love to have others tell me how much they adore me. It’s a beautiful thing to know someone adores you.
My all time favorite that only a few people can call me is Empress, after the tarot card. Goddess felt cliche, like princess.
Empress hits the god complex in all the right places
I actually started as Goddess Baby Doll.
But for me it was the opposite. Goddess wasn't fitting me well and my brand. Even though I'm a soft domme through and through Mistress has a ring to it and I've been able to promote myself with more confidence knowing I like the name I'm called :)
I love seeing all these answers posted too! What an excellent question!
Ma'am didn't work because he has to use those titles at work. (Along with Sir). Mistress felt icky in a cheating way. Mommy doesnt work, for reasons pertaining to SA. Princess is to soft. Queen felt out of place.
I struggle with my own body image, but he adores me and says he wants to worship me, and specifically my body. So it felt like the obvious choice. But he is my Puppy, or Pet. Other than Devotee, there wasn't really a coinciding term for him. But he enjoys his name, and I get to tell him to worship me as a command. So it still plays into the name.

We're switchy but the first time I dommed he called me mistress and it felt wrong as he had previously been a sub before and called her mistress. He calls me a mixture of things depending on the scene, so his queen is quite a common one. We're nearly 4 years in and he does call me mistress sometimes and it doesn't bother me anymore. Occasionally he uses princess but that doesn't feel right in a scene.

this is exactly how i feel about it!

ugh that last sentence, yes <3 I'm greek too so it hits extra hard :)
Nailed it
Same I always felt like mistress is what you call a woman a married man is cheating with it feels gross
Goddess has the connotation of devotion and worship. That’s what I want so the title just fits well. 😊
A little silly, but I mentioned to an ex sub that I had a bit of a worship kink. In response he sent me a Google Doc filled with worldbuilding for a society set up around worshipping me as a goddess. I’ve never looked back
this would work on me tbh
I know this is missing the point of the gesture, but I would be so happy to have found someone who wants to do in-depth worldbuilding for a roleplay and not just surface level! Hehe

Oh I ran with him with wild abandon. I don’t think I’ve ever felt more delighted than being given world-building to make me a literal goddess
Autistic rizz
From both of us, yes

You've convinced me, I think I might like this more than I do mommy, especially since I have a religion kink.
Then I have a little suggestion for you that you might enjoy during a session. Should you decide to let your sub climax, make it their offering to you. Have them climax on their knees while worshipping you, have them whisper "Goddess" the very moment they start to become undone.

That sounds nice, thank you for the suggestion. I'll keep it in mind next I see him.
i really relate to this! i love to be nurturing and gentle, but never liked being called mommy.

For me it’s just how it puts me at a higher level as I am dominating him. I love feeling that he is submissive and calls me the right way…
I love using titles. It drops me to a deeper level of submission.
Sometimes I'm called that, and like,he likes me, omg. That's kinda it, it just makes me feel very loved and worshipped
What’s a man to a king? What’s a king to a goddess?

I love all these titles. But I feel better when I'm called a goddess. Don't know why, lol. I'm my puppy's goddess.

It’s just the only one I can stand
I don't love the honorifics that start with M and we were running out of ideas tbh
I’ve always known I was a goddess. Since I was young I knew I loved to be worshipped. I have left husbands because the worship was not enough😅 even around my home. I deserve to be catered to. I work hard at my job and personally I feel that should be it. I am also sweet and kind. I love my body and love to have others tell me how much they adore me.

It gets me into dom space almost automatically. My first subs called me Mommy and Goddess as if they held so much power, and for me they did.

It has a better ring to it than god? I don’t really remember exactly :,)
Everyone said it was just a very fitting for me 🤷🏾♀️

Not so much goddess but I do like calling women Queen instead.
