Why do I have a thing for men in a position of authority over me?

You might be a sexual submissive.

The next step for you is whips, chains, and a golf ball duct-taped over your mouth. You're going down a slippery slope thinking like this.

You say that like it's a bad thing...

Yes and that's totally fine it's just not appropriate at all for you to explore with your coworkers.

Really? Not PP but I certainly am in favor of it.

However, if you’re going to go that route, aim higher than the out of shape middle manager.

What if it’s just for sex?

If it’s just for sex then you should DEFINITELY aim higher than the out of shape middle manager!

As an out of shape middle manager, I strongly disagree. This is the best thread I've read in weeks.

OP, it is a release of responsibility for you to hand over the power to someone else. It's a great fantasy. You wouldn't like it in real life unless there were other factors involved .

I don’t think daddy issues are the thing for women, I think that’s a man thing. I don’t think a woman exists who sincerely wants to call a man “daddy.”

I sincerely am turned on by calling my DH daddy in bed, as he likes, but i never grew up calling anyone daddy so it doesn’t hit the same for me.
Also turned on by powerful men and women. 37 year old woman

OP here. Yes- that must be it. If he was just someone I met in a bar I wouldn’t look at him twice. I think I’m gross for even thinking about it…but I can’t help myself right now. The way he shut everyone else down and took my side got me so turned on to the point I’m actually considering going for it

I have had a tiny little crush on almost every male boss that I actually thought was good.

Because you're into 50 Shades of Gray.

I’m with you, OP. For years I worried something was seeing with me because I find rough sex very hot. I love being submissive. I realized that it was a way for me to really let myself go and be very vulnerable. No abuse or daddy issues. I just like dominant men, much like many women are attracted to married men. There is nothing wrong with you.

I'm a government manager (late 50s, tall, in-shape). My gf is a government manager in a different agency, and 15 years younger than me. She calls me "Daddy" and "Sir" all the time (her idea, but I have come to love it, and love her).

Keep it out of your professional life for many reasons inc. that you could mess up your career.
