i know and understand that i have a submissive nature which, on the surface of things an outsider may consider to mean that i would submit to just about anyone.  However, i am an extremely strong woman and no doormat.  i am more dominant in my everyday life than submissive, especially towards men, but i constantly feel like i am fighting a huge internal battle against my natural self...

i was born to serve my One, however finding Him was not easy.  i do not submit to anyone other than Him.  My slavery to Him comes as naturally as breathing, it makes me deeply satisfied and connected to not only Him, but the universe... i am truly happy.  i am slave and He will always be my Master; i need Him and His dominance as much as i need air to breath.

I do not think one can be trained to be submissive. One could be taught submissive acts, but if the desire to submit is not natural to them then even if they do those submissive acts they are not truly submissives.

What are your reasons for being submissive?  were you born a submissive or have you been trained to be one? and what ever made you want to give in?
