ORIGINAL: focalss Here's the important question... is it as meaningful to submit to someone blatantly superior, or to give your obedience and submission to one who is more an equal? It is important for me to submit to someone I feel in some ways is superior to me and in general worthy of my submission. Most people have stated that they don't believe per se in Female Supremacy. I am wondering what those who do believe in it feel is different than D/s or other types of BDSM. The thing is, a -person- can be a competent and viable "superior", regardless of whether or not one buys into the idea of the supremacy of that entire gender, race, religious group, etc. In my household, I am the Supreme Commander. I am the Matriarch. Even where my co-FemDom is concerned, on most issues she defers to my expertise, and where there is hierarchy between us, I am the senior. This is -despite- the fact that, for a number of years, she was my owner and my superior. When everything was hashed out after I earned my crop and transitioned sides, I returned to my original place in our household, which was that of the matriarch and titular head of the house. At the same time, my companion is a skilled, talented, intelligent woman. She has talents that I do not possess. She is the Queen of the Mindfuck, and is one of the most detail-oriented FemDoms I've ever encountered. In her skill areas, she is -always- in charge, even though I am the matriarch. She's also a brilliant scientist and skilled alternative healer in homeopathy. When she is in her element, there is no question that she is running the show, and I defer to her expertise because it makes absolutely NO sense not to. Whether or not we believe in female supremacy (which, actually, we don't... we've met entirely too many completely idiotic women!), there is no question that, in our presence, we are in charge. First and secon I don't think that it is necessary to buy into philosophies that lift up or denigrate entire groups just to be powerful and in command (or to yield and accept one's position as submissive). All it takes is having the right combination of a powerful, effective leader and a willing, intelligent, and dedicated follower. Calla Firestorm
