I've been thinking a bit about this one overnight, as something was bugging me about this topic in general. The best way to describe it would be the "label" of a sub or even a Dominant for that matter. Not just within this community, but in most all walks of life in general, there's what I call a trend of false images that people are desperately trying to fit into. Labels are intended to describe someone or something, so others can easily group or classify them. Put them into a box so to speak. I don't know about the rest of you, but I HATE BEING BOXED. For example- I am a submissive, plain and simple. While I function in my worldy affairs as an alpha type, it's only out of need, not desire. Yet I crave/need to be submissive to the Domina in my life the rest of the time. I glady choose the label submissive because it describes me very well. However, I have taken the time and had the good fortune of spending time with others who helped me find my true self(in all ways-not just lifestyle), and the label is just s description of who/what my prime orientation truly is. Not all facets of me are submissive, and I have yet to meet a Dominant who is 100% dominant all the time as well. My point is that while many of us in this lifestyle know ourselves and have had enough exposure to correctly label ourselves, many out there in so-called vanilla land have not. Isn't it true that most everyone in the entire world will be orientated towards one or the other, and most simply have not defined themselves as such? Whether or not they wear the label of submissive or not, changes nothing regarding the true orientation of the inner person. After many years of being the out-of-balance, dominant force in business, industry and the home, many(not all) men are quite simply getting tired of having to take the lead in everything from business to sex, choosing the best home to live in, or even choosing the best wine tat we imagine will taste the best to others at the dinner table. Society has dictated this to us, thus putting some of us into the precarious situation of not functioning in accordance to our true inner nature. I believe this also applies to females. In other words, most all of us have in one way or another been forced to wear a false label, and have never been afforded the opportunity to step out of it in any way as it was deemed a sign of weakness. I see many times where deep inside most males(including myself)- lies the need to humble and submit to his woman on some levels, yet the boxes we have been placed in will not allow us to do so without being judged or ostricized to some extent. This can even lead to losing ones career/ marriage/ social position, so many simply choose the path of least resistance, and continue accepting the roles others have chose for them, which is basically-- lying to themselves. In short, each person has not only the right, but the responsibility to know themselves, and to present their TRUE selves to the world as much as possible. I call this personal integrity. Yet many are constantly trying to fit into a box that others choose for them, as opposed to finding a box/label that will fit them. The label shouldn't make the man, yet the man should make the label. Many will opt for the label submissive or Dominant simply because of the sexual images and fantasies attached to it, with little to no regard for the correctness of its description.....They have remained indolent in matters concerning self-realization, and unknowingly portray yet another mis-representation or lie. Most of society is now false as a result............... So, Lady Angelika, Your situation does not suprise me, as there are a great many truly submissive men in the vanilla world who have not been labeled as such, and it seems that You enjoy searching them out, and "assisting" them in finding their true inner nature. It seems that the most rewarding situations for You, are the ones that help vanilla men find their true inner selves and this is something that I see as a service to society, not a curse. Self-realization is the only way for us humans to get out of the pathetic mess we've collectively created for ourselves. When a man learns to express his true submission to a woman, this new-found freedom will trickle over into everything in his life. He will find a newfound respect for his mother/wife/grandmother and even his own daughter. A daughter who is respected and loved by her father will seek out the same later in life, and will inevitably pass this on to her children and so on.... Power will slowly be returned to those who IMO, are truly more capable to have the final say-so in matters that concern the hearth and home. Life will slowly become good again...... Thanks to You and others who have helped us to break the chains of worldy bondage, and substitute them with the chains of this lifestyle. We are all much happier now. lol.
