ORIGINAL: BoiJen For any naysayer still around, I wanted to point most men find strength in financial security. It's why they hold on tightly to every little penny. So wouldn't one reason that a responsible situation where a man gives up control of his financial state toward the woman he serves, wouldn't that be "more" submissive than the guy who doesn't? Just a thought to put out there.... boi I can certainly see where that might work for some people, and if it does, then that's great. Honestly, I think each person and/or couple should function in a way that works for them, but for me personally, the thought of "giving up control of my financial state" just doesn't seem like a very sensible thing to do. Gifting someone is completely different, and should be done out of love, not because, as a submissive, it is seen as the "thing to do". That's the main problem I had with the OP. Not that her submissive buys her nice things or that she enjoys those nice things - it's wonderful that they have found a dynamic that works for them and makes them both so happy - but it was the sweeping statement that *that* is how things must be done. That *that* was what made a man a good submissive. Everyone is different, and generalisations like that just really rub me the wrong way.
