Question for a new member and lover of this pair

Ok, so I have just started to get into the Steve/Tony pairing and I can't help but wonder the more I read and look at fanfics/fanart.

Who do you like best as the bottom in the relationship? Steve or Tony and WHY!? (if you like them both as top/bottom, then ignore this k?) :) or give me your thoughts-I don't care.

Personally I love Tony as a bottom because well I guess because Steve makes one awesome hot top. lol and I have a thing for Tony being hurt or 'powered over' or really because Tony is in fact a playboy and even if not hinted could be one to be with both genders and he could really just make Steve forget all his troubles with women.    

Anyways! Your thoughts-GO! 




And please know stereotypes in my opinion should NOT involve fandoms- know they can't really be separated- (blame dumb people in the world)- but to me they kinda can. I mean really it depends on the story.

I like Steve topping because i have a weakness for 'trust' fics. Tony doesn't open up to many, Stane ripped his heart out - all this contributes (in my mind) to a very wary Tony. I love reading about Cap working with Tony to get through to him, to show him he can be trusted, and then to read Tony letting him have the ultimate symbol of trust = himself.

But that's just my two cents. ^^

I agree with you there, but I think it depends directly on how the author frames the story. In some fics, top!steve works, and others, top!tony...it all depends on the plot, setting and situation...(forgive me, but I'm in an English minor and I can't help but use the terms)
