ORIGINAL: LadyMorgynn When there is no one to hold you, and you are feeling bad or down, or are hurting (physically or otherwise)... *at that moment* yes, it is hard to feel dominant. Does a submissive feel submissive at the moment he is negotiating a two million dollar deal, or firing an erring employee, or hiring a marketing manager? quote:
ORIGINAL: feastie Ok, I'm not dominant, but I do have to wonder... How do normal events have any power over whether one feels dominant or not? I'd think you'd find it more an exercise in strength to allow yourself to be held or cared for when you need it, to tackle that sinkful of dirty dishes with pride, muck out that horse stall because it's yours and you will do a better job than anyone, care for your mother's bird because it belonged to your mother, therefore, a labor of love. As far as I can recall, dominance doesn't negate humaness. I've hired, I've fired, but I haven't yet had the pleasure of a two-million dollar deal, although if the quotation my boss and I are working on, it might not be that far away. I'm always the same, regardless. I don't need to show my submissive nature to a vendor or a client or a fellow associate for it to exist. It's always there. There aren't external forces that change who I am. I'm not disrespecting any of you ladies, by any means. I'm just asking a perspective question. Do normal activities have bearing on who you are? They don't on me, so I'm just not understanding why they would on you. There hasn't been anyone to hold me or boost me up when I'm feeling down for a very long time. It doesn't change my nature.
