One-line definition
TPE stands for Total Power Exchange: a high-coverage or around-the-clock power exchange arrangement.
Full definition
TPE describes the long-term, broad end of D/s and M/s: arrangements that may cover daily rules, forms of address, tasks, finances, time management, or the structure of the relationship itself. The word “total” is more aspirational than literal. The actual scope is whatever the people involved have negotiated, and the fundamentals of consent, hard limits, and the right to leave still stand underneath it.
