Almost all. The "relationship of equals" thing is something that got created in the last 30 years, where both partners are expected to have an equal say in every major decision. I think to a large degree is why the interest in BDSM has grown exponentially since then, as what society tell us we should want and what we actually need tend to be 2 very different things. The dating game and its unrealistic expectations have destroyed more relationship than I can count, and most of those expectations can be traced back to the "equal relationship" thing. I think everyone need at least a very tiny bit of D/s, BDSM simply taking that need to the nth degree.
