Welcome to a recent feature here at Elysium Lifestyle where we feature interviews with some of our members, asking them each the same ten questions. This week, we listen to what gympredator has to say about hierarchy. This proud faggot may look like an Alpha, but don’t let appearances deceive you.

---

1. What role do you identify as, and how does your style/interpretation of this role align/differ from other styles you have come across?

I identify as a faggot. 

Thing is, my style and how I live my life is what the vast majority feel is quintessentially Alpha. My current work is with active duty military, and before that, violent male felons – both in a therapeutic role. (Being in an office alone with a legally insane murderer with no means of defense other than your mouth, takes a certain type of person; most are not.)

I am an amateur bodybuilder, so I have that “Alpha” look with the muscle and shaved head and such.
I live like an Alpha as far as how my home is decorated and what I own.
I drive a Mustang GT convertible.
I listen to rock and metal.
I’m a sports fan.
…and on and on.

99.9% of people will even deny my sexual orientation, demanding I must be a straight Alpha for how I conduct myself and my life outside of faggotry. The few Doms who have spotted me without me telling them all say the same thing: the only giveaway is a certain feel of need for submission that they can sense.

2. When did you realize and accept your role? What triggered your sexual awakening?

Both happened at the same time, though I didn’t understand either for years. In 6th grade, I was in the lunch line. A classmate/friend who lived on my same road had begun working out at a very young age as part of a surgery rehabilitation after being hit while on his bike by a car.

I was talking to this friend when he suddenly said, “Hey, Brad. Look at this.” He flexed his biceps and a baseball of round muscle appeared. He invited me to feel it and as I did, it felt like I had an electric cattle prod go off in my stomach, the reaction was so strong. I followed him the rest of the day, asking to feel when I could again and again. I was hooked. 

He knew what I was pretty much at once but never told me. He, as Y/you may guess, became the Alpha jock muscle kid. Wrestler, baseball, voted best looking in my class. He took me, an overweight dork at the time, under his wing in a form of ownership. He put out word that anyone who ever bothered me messed with Him. No one said a cross word to me after that. Invited me to the gym with Him. W/we had other encounters, such as in 8th grade gym class having to pretend to watch sex-ed films in the library, while He flexed for me and let me feel Him under the table (Talk about a real sex-ed class under that table.) I never served Him sexually but in virtually every other way He was my Alpha and I was His fag.

3. What was your first time fully experiencing your role like?

On my Mormon mission, one of my companions was an Alpha – one of 5 brothers growing up on a cattle ranch, football player, dated a college cheerleader while He was in high school, etc. He and I often wrestled for various stakes. He again knew what I was without me saying it – it wasn’t needed. 

Once, W/we wrestled for stakes unnamed and I lost. My stake – I had to be His slave for 24 hours. I had to agree and the very first thing He did was have me kneel and kiss His feet, laughing as I did it. That 24 hours was full of domestic service to Him, humiliation, and a lot of the things I still continue to love an Alpha to do to me to this day. Later on, after that 24 hours, He went on to take my virginity with a dry fuck He offered and I accepted. An experience I’ll never forget for many reasons. I burn two “old flame” candles for Alphas in my heart. One is for Him.

He went on to marry, have 3 daughters, and became a cattle rancher on His own ranch. W/we are still in contact occasionally 25 years later… and He still will sometimes address me in private as His fag.

4. What do you look for / expect in someone of the opposite role?

An Alpha is more of a state of mind to me than a physicality. I know this because my own physicality means I am often mistaken for something I am not. To sum it up in a line I was taught when I was formally introduced to BDSM: “A MAN is a MAN because He is.” Meaning – I look for someone where dominance/Alpha is almost genetically natural to them. There is no role play, there is nothing forced. There doesn’t need to be. Controlling me is as easy and unforced to them as controlling Their own heart rate – it just happens and They don’t even need to think about it. It is that natural and easy. That kind of natural Alpha I simply can’t resist.

5. What do you look for / expect in someone claiming to be of the same role?

There are many kinds of subs/fags out there and I try to relate to them all, again, because of my own life of being mistaken for, and often treated by other Alphas, as an Alpha.

But, the fags I relate to the most are those like me. Wherein, being a fag is as integral to me as my DNA. I was called “a natural born submissive” by the Dominant who taught me about BDSM, where my submissive tendencies almost made me a 3rd gender. He was the first to tell me some Alphas call natural subs “faggots” to distinguish from people who submit occasionally like a switch or subs or the “tourists” who only do scenes, encounters, or role plays. When he said, “A faggot is the gender of ‘having male anatomy, but not being a Man nor a woman’,” it really spoke to me. It feels like I am so different as to be a third gender, and hence to be below Men on the hierarchy.

I’m told by other Dominants that we naturally-born faggots are sort of rare; so, I look for those sorts of similarities in other fags.

6. How do you develop your role to learn, grow, and improve?

Always learning is key. One thing to note is that while we call You all “Dom/Alpha/Master/Men” – whatever – each Alpha is different and You express Your Alpha nature in a unique mix of traits. Many of those traits You have in common with each other, but how You express them – what You like and dislike in the proportion thereof – are very unique. 

A good submissive or faggot is always on the lookout to learn how the Alpha expresses those traits, and with that knowledge, conform our faggotry to the needs of the Alpha. It is my job to learn my Alpha so well that I know what He wants almost before He does. Many make the mistake of thinking submission is just rolling over and becoming a damp dishcloth for an Alpha. But that’s a copout. An Alpha could get plastic sex toys for that. Being a good fag is a very active thing – mentally as well as physically. Even if I were to serve a group of Alphas at once, as much as I could, it is still my role to try and learn as much as I can about Them individually and then take that and learn how to serve Them best individually.

And one great thing is that many of You Alphas are happy to help a fag hone himself, even if You don’t have a particular interest in us as being owned by You. In that, You give us a chance to serve even those we do not formally serve. I’ll always be grateful for that.

7. What’s the kinkiest thing you’ve ever done / want to try / or do again?

Hard to define since kink is such an individualized thing. But for myself, the kinkest things I’ve ever done are with a group of Men or in some sort of public way. The last Man I served allowed me to kneel and kiss His feet/shoes in public parking lots in Las Vegas, for example.

So, one that comes immediately to mind was a demonstration I did in Denver at a vanilla bar that wanted to introduce their patrons to kink.

I was tied in backwards to a St. Andrew’s, shirtless, in leathers, blindfolded, and had an Alpha use a vampire glove on my back (bloodlessly). Showing what I do as a fag in public to a vanilla crowd was an amazing turn on. (And yes, there was a photographer there. So somewhere on the net there is me, having that done basically the way I look now. I’ve seen them in the past.)

8. What was one of the best or worst experiences you’ve had in your role?

I’ve shared some wonderful ones already. Let me share with Y/you a bad one. The last Alpha I served knew I very much loved BDSM mummification, but He did not know the skills involved. As “luck” would have it, an acquaintance of His who was quite renowned for mummification was going to be in town and He wanted me to do it with this person. I was hesitant since mummification is deceptively dangerous; so trust needs to be there. But He wanted to provide me with what He thought would be a great experience and after meeting the person in question and talking I agreed. 

What followed was the person doing a fine job wrapping me. Then dumping me on the floor, and leaving me alone to research vacation plans for the next 90 minutes. my Alpha had gone to take care of preparing a cookout meal, so He didn’t see the violation of basic safety that went on of me trapped helplessly in layers of wrap and tape on the floor alone. Even if I yelled out my safeword, no one was there to hear it. No aftercare was given after I was cut out, though aftercare is vital after mummification to bring the body temperature to normal safely, setting aside basic caring aftercare. I did it all myself.

This person was my Alpha’s friend, so I didn’t tell Him everything that happened until He asked me about the experience. I told Him honestly all that happened and I had no intent to even be in the same room with this person again.

My Alpha apologized to me profusely, to which I told him I didn’t blame Him as He wasn’t there to see it and trusted this person who was so well known to at least know basic safety. He said He should have been there as my Alpha, that my care was His as His possession. He felt terrible about it and told me he would take care of it. 

I don’t know what happened after that, save I know he had an intense discussion with this person and related the substance of just how badly he had fucked up and how much he had damaged trust between me and Him, as my Alpha, He was vouching that I was safe in his hands and I wasn’t. 

That Alpha has since moved to the other side of the country, but I served Him driving one of his vehicles across the nation in that move, and W/we are in regular contact even now. I’ve even given him some counseling as He is currently in divorce proceedings. That Alpha means the world to me, and I serve how and where I can. 

That other person – I’ve never been in that person’s presence again.

9. What does “hierarchy” mean to you? What brings you joy since discovering the hierarchy?

The hierarchy is a way to understand how males relate to each other in so many different areas of life, not just kink. We instinctively develop hierarchy in every aspect of life, so having it here really helps me navigate sexually and the entire area we might call “non-platonic” relationships. (And even a few platonic ones.) Once you learn about hierarchy and live it, it spills over into Y/your very thinking, how Y/you approach even the most mundane situations. Hierarchy literally influences my view of the world.

I can’t tell you the relief it was to finally learn about the hierarchy and my place in it. The Man who first taught me told me that while He had no sexual interest in me, He thought He owed it to me, as the person He had come to know, to help me find my place in it. He taught me so much and when He taught me about faggotry and that I wasn’t alone or insane, it almost brought me to tears. 

When a MAN controls me, I’ll describe it as what it feels like when I’m carrying a 225 lb squat bar on my shoulders so long as to forget it’s there but to still feel the weight. When an Alpha lifts that burden from me it is breathtaking. I truly can’t understand how anyone can function who isn’t an Alpha without one to serve… even if that service isn’t as all encompassing as I’d like it. It is a joy, a relief, something I savor to be allowed to be who I really am. I never take the chance to serve Superior Men for granted.

10. What advice would you give to someone new to the hierarchy?

LEARN – learn as much as you can about the roles, each role, as much as possible. Even the roles you do not naturally feel pulled toward. Alphas learn about fags, fags respectfully learn about Alphas. About Betas, Deltas, Sigmas, etc. Whatever label W/we give to the roles. Look around your life and see the roles in action. Be prepared to be wrong about where some M/men truly are in the hierarchy. Despite my faggotry, classification tests make me a Sigma over and over, and most people accept me as that because of how most of my life is led. I’ve learned that many Alphas have a hard time with a Sigma fag, almost as a contradiction in terms. But that’s also very Sigma. (haha)

Take time to talk to peers at Y/your level and those at different levels. This is going to feel at the same time new and wonderful and something you’ve known since the womb. Don’t let that feeling of familiarity and visceral understanding get in the way of learning Y/your role. 

Then live it; small and simply at first, then slowly add. Y/you can’t just jump into the hierarchy, even if it is natural to Y/you, without a learning curve.

Don’t beat yourself up for errors as you learn, but never let that stand in the way of becoming who Y/you were born to be.
