FemdomU Guide to Submissive Posing
Position #1:
Wait
WAIT is a standing pose of respectful stillness, used to display a sub’s readiness, obedience, and patience. His feet are slightly apart, spine tall, and hands folded neatly behind his back. With shoulders open and head upright, he presents himself calmly and without demand, awaiting your next command. Whether clothed, nude, or adorned with accessories, this pose signals discipline and submission—he knows his place, and he will not move until you say so.
Step-by-Step Positioning Guide
How to Position Him
He should be standing upright with a tall, neutral posture. Feet slightly apart, toes pointed forward or just naturally relaxed. His hands are placed behind his back, with one palm folded gently into the other. His shoulders stay back and open, presenting his chest. The chin should be lifted but not defiant. You may choose whether he holds your gaze or lowers his eyes. What matters is that he is alert, accessible, and quietly obedient.
This is a presentational pose. It offers his entire body in stillness and makes him available to observe, inspect, or ignore.
Side and Back Views: From the side, his profile should still maintain length and intention. His belly should not sag, and his erection (if present) becomes highly visible. From the back, check for symmetry in the hands, tension in the spine, and how comfortably or awkwardly he carries himself when not able to see you.
Understanding the Pose
Purpose for the Pose
This is his default position when he is awaiting your instruction or evaluation. He is not performing, and he is not being punished. He is simply… waiting. But there is nothing casual about this pose. He is still because you have not yet told him to move. He is exposed because you may wish to look. He is silent because his voice is not needed right now.
Use WAIT before giving orders, while preparing equipment, when you arrive in the room, or when he has finished a task and must await your judgment. It works equally well in person or through video or photo submission. It can be calming or humiliating, depending on your tone.
Shirless is okay...
Nude is better
When he wears clothing in WAIT, even partial, he retains a sense of privacy. That privacy does not serve you. Nudity strips away every barrier. It makes his body yours to see, evaluate, and comment on. A nude sub cannot pretend to be in control. He cannot hide his arousal or shame. He is simply there, bared and quiet, awaiting the next moment where your will becomes his world.
Use this pose to monitor grooming habits, posture training, and his general responsiveness. Some Dommes even use it as a daily photo checkpoint.
Understanding the Pose
pose variations
-
Erection Views: In front view, an erection becomes the centerpiece. From the side, it throws off balance and must be corrected through posture. From behind, it creates subtle muscular tension in the thighs and lower back.
-
Chastity Version: Lock him in a cage before putting him into WAIT. It adds weight and visible restriction. He will be deeply aware of his denial while trying to remain perfectly still.
-
Sissy in Panties: If you feminize your sub, have him wear cute, tight panties that contrast with the pose’s discipline. Watching him attempt to look serious and obedient while displaying his caged bulge in pink satin is a gift.
-
The Advanced Sub: To heighten the image, add a decorative chest rope harness or weighted nipple clamps that test his stillness. For a back view, a jeweled anal plug offers the perfect visual center, framed naturally by his posture.
Challenge Him
Stillness Trials: The Three Levels of WAIT
Level 1: Basic Discipline
Have him strip fully nude and assume the WAIT position in front of you. Set a five-minute timer. During this time, he must not speak, fidget, or break posture. You may walk around him, observe him, make small comments. If he breaks stillness or looks away when he shouldn’t, correct him verbally and restart the timer. After five minutes, you may choose to touch him lightly or give a small reward for his obedience.
Level 2: Intermediate Tease
Once he can manage stillness, add provocation. Begin the same five-minute timer, but now introduce stimulation. Circle him slowly, brush a finger down his chest, stroke the inside of his thigh without warning. Whisper humiliating instructions in his ear or talk about what you might allow later. He must remain in WAIT, hands behind his back, even as you arouse him. If he begins to tremble or leak, decide whether that deserves a punishment or reward. He is not allowed to orgasm. That is not part of this game.
Level 3: Sadistic Ritual
Set the tone. Full nudity, strict posture, and a gag. No timer. He must remain in WAIT until you say otherwise. During this time, conduct your evening routine. Scroll through your phone. Do your makeup. Watch a show. Every so often, walk over and inspect him. Tap his inner thigh with a crop. Flick his nipple. Add clamps if you’re in the mood. If he breaks posture, he gets ten extra minutes added. If he drips precum, wipe it on his face and call it his shame mark. You can stretch this trial across hours. If you want to be especially cruel, allow him to think it’s ending, then correct a minor mistake and make him start again.
training tips
Hints for the Sub
Start small. Practice holding WAIT in front of a mirror for two minutes at a time. Check your posture: spine tall, shoulders back, arms still. Film yourself if you want a better look at how your body actually reads. Build up your stillness and your awareness. Don’t clench or fidget. Practice edging before entering the pose so that your arousal feels alive in your body but under your control. When submitting photos, use clear natural lighting, remove clutter from the background, and present your body without apology.

Thursday
We’ll cover another submissive pose, why to use it, and how to train him.
I would like to be tested in this pose. Would prefer my Domme test me but til that happens I film myself as suggested. I want to please my Domme in everything.
this is a pretty standard pose so yeah practice and see if you can hold it for a long time. i am typically in this position during the meal when Madam entertains guests, or while she reads her Magazine updates as i wait for her to give me commands. actually i hold this position a lot – waiting for Her is a big part of the job.
