-:''The word ''"bottom"'' can also refer to [[Buttocks]]''
-In the terms of BDSM scenes or interactions, a '''bottom''' refers to the person who takes on the submissive role for the duration of a [[scene]]. This term is associated with being on the receiving end of bondage, discipline, and sadism. (Note: this term has significant connotative differences from '''submissive''' or [[slave]].) They may be involved in such acts as [[bondage]], [[flogging]], [[humiliation]], or [[servitude]] from the [[top]].
+The term '''Bottom''' could refer to:
+: [[bottom (Anatomy)]] - the bottom, ass, arse. buttocks
-The term originates from a more general use of the word, especially among the gay male community, to mean receptive partner. See [[bottom]] for this meaning.
+: [[bottom (BDSM)]] - a submissive person in a BDSM relationship
+: [[bottom (sex)]] - the person receiving anal sex
-A bottom is not necessarily submissive, and vice versa. At one end of the continuum is a submissive who enjoys taking orders from a dominant but does not receive any physical stimulation. At the other is a bottom who enjoys the intense physical and psychological stimulation but does not submit to the person delivering them.

-It should be noted that for bottoms who are not submissive, the bottom is most often the partner who is ''giving'' instructions&amp;mdash;the top typically tops when, and in the manner, requested by the bottom.
-In order to explore BDSM sex, it is essential to be careful and choose a top who will be responsive to one's needs, feelings, and limits. (See [[safewords]].) Failure to choose a trustworthy top can be very dangerous, and even a trustworthy but overzealous top can inflict severe pain or injury by failing to pay attention to the bottom.
-Note that in BDSM sex, it is commonplace for two partners to switch roles from one encounter to the other, depending on mood and preference, a practice known as [[switch|switching]].
