First I'd have to say that YES it is very possible, and for me it is the only way. I have a dominant male partner and we have an amazing relationship that is not in any way fettered by ego or insecurity or power struggle - we have slaves that serve us both and that arrangement is completely satisfying for our dominant natures. I could never have a romantic relationship with a submissive, it's not about them being 'unequal' to me - everyone is equal as people - but the personality match would be very unbalanced and I would never feel it to be a true partnership. The difficulty in having an arrangement like mine is that the D/s relationship is, for many submissives (and dominants as well I assume) also an inherently romantic/love-based one. For me that's simply not the case. But if you want a monogamous romantic relationship with your Mistress, then having a Mistress with a serious relationship with a Dom is going to inevitably lead to jealousy and unhappiness. It's also true that there are many male slaves who have hang ups about the idea of serving or submitting to a male, which is just an unfortunate reality, but the truly open-minded ones see serving my male partner as an extension of their service to me, and something that pleases me. The real point here for me is that they are separate, but equally important, needs in my life. I need to have the matched personalities and equal partnership in a loving and committed, passionate, erotic, romantic relationship with another Dominant - but I also need to have the dynamic physical and psychological power exchange, the erotic fulfillment, and the kinky satisfaction of a Mistress/slave relationship with a submissive. Either one can simply never satisfy the other's role. And as for Lady Angelika... I sooooo agree. I think of that as a dominant male who just needs an even more dominant female to put him in his place *evil grin* such fun! ~Elle
