A kink in which a person, typically someone assigned male at birth, takes on a stylized feminine or hyper-feminine persona, often through clothing, makeup, mannerisms, or a chosen name. It usually involves a power dynamic, a sense of humiliation or surrender, or both, depending on the person.
For some, the appeal is the ritual of dressing and the aesthetic itself; for others, it is the consensual exchange of status, the relief of stepping outside a masculine role, or the charge of being seen and directed by a partner. It appears in solo play, partnered scenes, and online communities, sometimes overlapping with feminization and forced-feminization roleplay.
Worth knowing: Because sissy play often involves humiliation, degradation, or intense role immersion, agree on limits and a safeword in advance and build in aftercare such as reassurance, affection, and a clear return to normal roles.
Also called: sissification, feminization, forced feminization, sissy training, crossdressing kink, gender play, petticoat discipline, dollification
