I see some men being drawn to the role of Dom or Master because they think it means they can stop putting in the effort - silly them.

I see it as more effort sometimes. (but damn well worth it)

Very much this. Regardless of whether or not it is a power exchange relationship, whether or not it is a kink based relationship, regardless of who is leading, if either.

If there is no honest communication, if there is no trust, if there is no effort on both/all parts, if there are unrealistic expectations.........shit's gonna fall apart. As KoM has often written about, all involved have to serve the relationship.

Blah. Editing my initial comment because it was a negative response to a negative idea.

One thing does not justify the other.

OP - the parallels are interesting, but you know how it goes; what works for me may not for you, yadda yadda.

People always long for the sunlit golden old days, without realizing what actually went on below the surface, which has been discussed already.

All of these rules for being a good wife...well, most of them are just common sense, aren't they?

I've come to realise that 'common sense' is a misnomer. More like, 'the sense you'd have once you've swept the drivel, dogma and doctrine out of the way'. Or, perhaps better, 'uncluttered logic'. Yep, I'm going to go with that: 'uncluttered logic'.
