I seriously doubt that everyone who claims to be a male sub really is a male sub. It never ceases to amaze me how many guys I've met claim to be real subs, knowing full well they're lying, just for the sake of getting kinky sex. I think a lot of times, people just don't know any better. A person might have a fetish, where they are in the passive role, so they assume that they must be a submissive, when in reality they just have a particular fantasy they want to engage. Hell, when I was first starting to come to terms with my kinky inclinations, I recognized that having my partner be very aggressive made me melty. I thought, given my enjoying that kind of dynamic (on occasion), that I might be a submissive. After some interaction with an Alpha friend (which didn't work for me at all), and a lot of introspection, I realized that was just one fantasy amongst many, and I've grown to identify as more of a versatile Top. It takes time to learn your "place", and I don't think that roles are necessarily static, people grow, interests evolve, and people relate to eachother in different ways. I hate it when people go into the what is a "real" _insert label here_, because it's all so relative. Sure, there are manipulative bastards out there, and some people might purposely misrepresent themselves, but this isn't unique to submissive men. And as I've stated, in some cases, it may not have much to do with subterfuge at all. Some people haven't developed a strong identify for themselves, and some people are just very eager for whatever they can get, and will do anything to "fill the void". As much as these types make me twitch, I recognize them for what they are, and that's usually just pretty damn lonely. I can sympathize with that, though in my book, one and one make two, and I'm perfectly whole on my own.
