Lets give an example, you are walking with your dominant and some drunk comes up to pick a fight, would you have more admiration for a dominant who walked away or had a fight.
In a fight would winning make a difference to your attitude to them?
Do you think resolving an issue with violence is a trait associated with dominance?
Being raised in the "Land of Doms" (about 6 doors south of Oz)- father and 3 brothers were definitely "alpha-males" (which made for some interesting evenings), and being warriors, I have learned that physical violence is the last resort, because it can't be stopped once started. It is a last resort, and used as a last resort. But if it is called for it is not backed down from. The key is to know when it is needed and when not.
As for my Dom in particular, Sir could flatten a cactus with a withering glare at 50 paces. I doubt he would need to pound anyone. Doms seem to have a presence about them that affects mischief makers two ways, either they walk away, or feel the need to challenge.
Choosing not to fight does not diminish him in my eyes.
BTW, has anyone else noticed many Doms have that "withering glance" down pretty good. Am beginning to think that is a "Dom" thing. I hear it remarked about a lot.
