Okay, we're bondage freaks. And I enjoy a light/moderate spanking. Other than that, we're the most unkinky people you've ever met. But except for a couple of areas we negotiated about, he has the final say. That does not translate into him barking orders all day and night. It does mean "Honey, could you run this errand for me?" and getting "I'd be glad to" as an answer. Not very d/s, is it? No "Yes, SirMasterDreadedOverlord", just cheerful agreement. Nobody looking at our relationship would assume he makes all decisions, Because he doesn't, since he knows there won't be any arguing over minor things for no good reason, he doesn't feel the need to hoard all power. I actually get asked more about what I would like than I did in my vanilla marriage, where power plays were quiet and continual. When people look at us, what they see is a couple who are happy together, who are respectful of each other, who enjoy making each other happy, who enjoy each other's company and who, after nearly five years, still hold hands most of the time.
