I think of role play as being almost anything where one or both partners are acting out a fantasy for themselves or for their partner, or both. So it need not be dressing up. It can be just the words you use, the situation, anything. Basically anything but the ordinary thing in the same old bedroom. It really depends on YOUR fantasy and your partner being willing to act it out in some way for you. Elaborate or simple.
OK, so a few concrete examples. Again, it so depends on YOUR fantasy, that any particular example might actually be a turn-off for you, or a turn-on. Some women might have a fantasy of being pressured to have sex with their boss. Or by seducing their male boss. Or the woman might be the boss seducing the male subordinate, or the other way around. See, already there are four combinations of boss and gender. Perhaps only one partner is into any one of those, but the other might then play along. Perhaps dressing up in business clothes would enhance the scenario.
It starts with what YOUR fantasy might be, and having a partner who is interested in talking about YOUR fantasies and having fun trying to pretend it with you. I could go on for pages, but there are entire books devoted to such scenarios. Certainly there is a lot of stuff with light BDSM. Surely you've heard of Fifty Shades of Grey?
