Yes I believe so, because we were all vanilla at one time, we were not born with whips in our hands. Although looking at some of the people I have worked for I have reservations.I have said it many times that there are many Mistresses out there in the vanilla world but have not realised their potential. By saying that statement, there must be the same amount of submissives or more. As _ID_ says, broach on the subject with her, but remember that you might get an answer that will take up most of your free time, especially if she is already showing signs of submission.
