When I first saw the movie, "The Secretary", I admit that I was intrigued. I came on to it one day when I was home sick, having missed the beginning. it was also on regular cable so some things were cut. For me the movie was how I came to find D/s. Although, I did not like the way Lee was portrayed at first, I feel she came into her own and became a much happier person. Although, James Spader's character (forget his movie name) struggles with his dominance I think that they might have been trying to portray how many feel when they are in this "lifestyle" if at only in the beginning of their journey.
For me, the realization of who/what I was, was sometimes difficult to process at first. Thoughts like "why do I feel the need to let a man control me when I should be a strong, independant woman?" entered my mind along with "why can't I be normal?" whatever that is, would also nag at me. That was until I met my first Dom, he showed me that it was ok to feel/want these things. Since then I have grown a lot and accepted what I am. I am probably more happy now than I ever was because I accept myself.
