Big Spoon

The big spoon is the person doing the holding of the little spoon from behind in a spooning position. In kink, this role may:

• Reflect dominance, caregiver energy, or a protective dynamic.
• Take on emotional labor or grounding duties during or after a scene.
• Embody gentle dominance, often providing comfort, containment, and warmth.
• Reinforce emotional closeness or authority without overt power play.
