Some people like to superior and bottom when they have sex, but what is this, who does what and do you have to do it?
The simple explanation is that the top is who puts their penis, fingers, or sex toy in someone. The bottom is the person who has something put in them.

It can also own a more literal definition. Like who is ‘on top’ in a sexual position.

It can also be about what the dynamic is about who is deciding on what happens and taking the initiative. So someone who is more active is the top and someone who is more passive is the bottom.
It can also be about control. The top might have control over the other person about things like; what kind of sex that they hold, how they do it, or the relationship as a whole. This can be done with approval and it’s a thoughtful of kink. It can also be done without consent and so is just abusive.
