Taken from your post. The three people involved in the d/s relationship. In a relationship of a dominant and submissive there is a third person always present. The dominant is most always the same as his dominance is internal to him, and his demeanor may not show what he is thinking, even when he is thinking about his submissive. The submissive on the other hand has two personas that she brings to the relationship, making 3 individuals in the relationship. The first is the thinking functioning woman, the woman that the world sees everyday, the woman that may have a prestigious position in the everyday work world. She may be highly educated, be very intelligent and have myriad interests, but her submissive persona will always drive her back to her dominant to serve his pleasure where she will have to subdue the thinking functioning woman. In effect attempting to turn her off, because the thinking woman may try to interfere with her true needful destiny. Often the thinking woman rebels and the submissive may need the help of her dominant in conquering the thinking woman. In effect there are two people trying to liberate the submissive from within, the dominant and the submissive persona. This is a struggle faced by many submissives everyday and won everyday. Its a struggle the thoughtful dominant realizes has to be faced, and gladly faces. For only by overcoming the thinking woman can the dominant and the submissive realize her true potential. This is actually what I was referring to. Following your reasoning, if a woman falls early enough into a 'capable' dominants hands, then the dichotomy you refer to, might not exist. I'm not so sure I agree....but when I put together your post, with different remarks you have made on these posts, and throw in your journal musings - I get a clearer understanding of what you actually mean, as opposed to what you toss out every few seconds on the boards. This is why I said, if you took enough time to allow your brain to catch up with your fingers, you might not be so "misunderstood." WinD
