When a character who is penetrating (the "top", which is not to be confused with dominance) is the one being taken control of. This is commonly expressed in gay submission activities where the "top" is either physically beneath their partner and being power_bottomed or being demanded by said partner to penetrate them, or in femdom situations where the dominant female is being penetrated by a submissive character, usually male (contrasted with pegging, where the submissive male is being penetrated by the dominant female). Power bottoms are frequently seen in the cowgirl position.

The term "service top" is related to BDSM, particularly in the D/S aspect.

Not to be confused with

• the concept of on_top/bottom; these tags are concerned with position rather than dominance and penetration.
