I really don't see any conflict here, I don't see anything wrong with being polite and showing good manners toward your sub. I would think that this type of attention would be in their best interest. However I think it would be a mistake for the sub to interpret this as a sign of weakness in her Dom

TracyT,

It does not have to be a struggle, their is no losing of the "D" persona simply because their is an element of gentleness and politeness.

ORIGINAL: TracyTaken

I was wondering if any resident Dominants have struggled with the idea of chivalry as an opposite to dominance. Mine has and it has taken/is still taking some effort on both sides to overcome it. By chivalry, I don’t mean beheading green knights and slaying dragons, but: The idea that a gentleman is to serve a lady, and after her all other ladies. Most especially in this category is a general gentleness and graciousness to all women. (Wiki’s general definition, but it works) If so, how did you/do you deal with it?

I don't have any struggles about being chivalrous towards my slave or other women and being Dominant. If I want to open a door for my slave or any other female I will, but that is because I want to. Then again if I don't feel like it I won't. I personally don't feel like I am serving any female by being chivalrous.
