Perhaps those who change so completely were/are switches at heart? Most, I would think, attracted to this life are attracted because they find in their hearts the need to submit, or to be dominate ... so they would probably start in that way.

That said, I'm a fan of switching, no matter my preferences. I may not be submissive by personality, but the more I can relate to my sub's feelings and experiences, the better I will be as her Dom. I'm eager to try switching -- frankly, I don't know if I have what it takes and am eager for the challenge.
