How to Avoid Being Seen as a Paypig

A “no bullshit” post.

So many submissive men lose their minds when a Domina they think is “lifestyle” asks for money. They feel betrayed, scammed, and insulted. But the men don’t realise that they, themselves, are the problem.

Ok, listen up:

  • If you approach a Domina like you’re a client, She will treat you like a client.

How Do Subs Behave Like Clients

A lot of Lifestyle Domina’s have also dabbled in a bit of Pro. They know the lo-down, so they can smell you coming a mile away. So, what does “approaching like a client” look like?

  • Listing your kinks.
  • Dropping your fantasies.
  • Asking Her to dominate you.
  • Requesting “online domination.”

These are client behaviours. In fact, they’re typically paypig behaviours. And if you present yourself this way, you are signalling that you belong in the category of men who pay up. So when you suddenly psyche at the mention of money, you’ve already put yourself in the very box you’re hypocritically protesting against. You’re just a user looking for free ProDomme porn.

Why Else Would a Domina Ask for Money, Even if She is Lifestyle?

Now, let’s say you haven’t listed kinks or begged for blind domination, but a Domina still asks for money. That usually means one of three things:

  1. She’s a ProDomme, Content Creator, or Findomme in disguise
    These women build their brand around images, stereotypes, and content designed for entertainment. They provide a service: quick-fix domination, humiliation, and fantasy play. They are performers. They will lure you with typical “boss bitch latex” pics, pussy and peg pics, and hollow words of domination or humiliation. Learn to tell the difference between a content creator and a lifestyle Domina. Tip: don’t let your dick decide for you.
  2. You’re too old for Her.
    If you’re 10+ years older and messaging women in their 20s, you’re likely to be seen as a wallet, not a serious candidate for a lifestyle dynamic. Contrary to what the scene may make you think, younger women rarely pursue older men unless there’s financial benefit. Online, especially, you’ll be read as a Sugar Daddy opportunity, and many are eager to boast about having one. (You might be thinking of all the anomalies in vanilla life of younger women and older men but… look at their pay gaps. Most younger woman only see older men as a short-term thing to get some funds before they find a guy their own age to settle down with.)
  3. She’s not available for a true dynamic.
    Most lifestyle Dominas are already partnered. If you approach one who is taken, you’ll be seen as “extra” — not intimate, not central, but a secondary sub. And that usually means being objectified into categories that include financial benefit. Domination is emotional labour. Your body and your eagerness aren’t “payment.” If you don’t bring something She actually values, money is the most straightforward way you can add benefit.
  4. The bonus one:
    Sometimes, asking for money is the fastest way to get rid of you. If She isn’t interested, asking for “tribute” ensures you’ll vanish—no drama.

The Reality

Here’s the part submissives don’t want to hear. Domination takes effort, a great fuck load of mental, emotional and physical effort. It takes planning, time, energy, and emotional investment. No, your submission isn’t a trade for Her domination. So, if you are less experienced than Her, what can you give that She doesn’t already have? Your money. It doesn’t matter how much you say you are a good sub or a good server or a good cleaner – that takes way too long to find out if it’s true. But, money is honest.

How to Avoid Being Seen as a Paypig

If you don’t want to be mistaken for a client or a paypig, here’s a quick checklist:

  • Don’t talk about your kinks or fantasies.
  • Don’t ask for “domination”—online or in person.
  • Approach with curiosity about Her, not with a list of demands.
  • Respect Her time and keep your first message concise and polite.
  • Show substance. Who are you, beyond your kinks?
  • Demonstrate you value Her as a person, not as a service provider.
  • If you have to ask for something, ask about meeting Her. Is She open to meeting face-to-face for a coffee?
  • And then after all that, She still asks you for money…? At least you know it is Her, not you. Be grateful that She striked Herself out of your attention.

The truth is, Lifetstyle Dominas do not exist to fulfil your fantasies (this is what Pros are for). So… make sure you actually want a Lifestyle Dynamic before contacting a Lifestyle Domina. If you just want free Porn-Domme… everyone is going to hate on you. How you present yourself determines whether you’ll be seen as a submissive worth investing in or as just another cheap paypig looking for freebies.

Most men just play a numbers game, creating their own misery. Learn to identify the Domina’s that you feel “born” to serve.
