You provoke and tease to earn a reaction from your dominant.

Meaning
A Brat is a submissive who enjoys playful disobedience — teasing, provoking, and pushing boundaries to earn a reaction from a dominant partner. The defiance is part of the fun: it sets up a chase, a battle of wills, and an eventual, satisfying “taming.”
Bratting is consensual play, not real defiance. Brats still respect limits and safewords; the resistance is theater that makes submission more thrilling for both partners.
