Here is what I posted about this matter in a prior discussion.
For me it is relevant what one means by female supremacy; does the term suggest females are genetically or inherently superior to males, or does it suggest that females are given a superior status?
For the former, the question that comes to mind is what criteria is used to determine superiority. While I know men and women who consider females to be inherently superior, I see neither gender to be inherently superior.
Incidentally, I am a fan of synergy and feel that the whole is usually greater than the sum of the parts. I extend this idea to male and female energies and attributes, and to the question of whether society should be matriarchal or patriarchal.
I see the idea of a society where women are superior beings (such as The OWK) as an interesting fantasy to enact. I relate more to female supremacy per the second definition. I enjoy it as a type of BDSM interest (worshipful submission).
I am fascinated by psychology and like to think about the why's behind BDSM. I think female supremancy (or even dominant supremacy) may serve as a construct used to justify submission. I elaborate.
Before I knew what was BDSM and that there were others like me, I had only my fantasies. The fantasies were more powerful if they seemed realistic. To seem realistic, a fantasy had to address two questions: (1) why would someone treat me in the envisioned manner, and (2) how could I allow someone to treat me in that manner.
I think female supremacy is one of several constructs that help with the second idea; one submits to a given dominant because he sees the dominant to be a superior person; one submits to women because in his reality, women are superior beings to whom one must naturally submit.
Even when said to be held generally, in reality I think these views are applied to specific situations. That is, I expect that men who claim to believe in superiority of females only apply this idea to specific females and not to every single woman in the world.
I feel constructs such as this are comparatively more common in female-dominance/male-submission because this power dynamic clashes with roles traditionally assigned by society. I think this is one reason we see fetishes for Amazons, martial arts, giantesses, and uniforms. I think this idea may even present one of different types of motivations that drive a want for feminization (in this case, to escape the male identity and its traditional role).
Incidentally, I think our reality influences the constructs and possible answers for question number 2. Before I had discovered BDSM, my reality made a BDSM fantasy seem possible only if a person who seemed sadistic (to address question number 1) could somehow compel me (to address question number 2) to do her bidding. Having learned about the existence of BDSM and dommes, my reality has changed where voluntary submission and mutual power exchange seems a more realistic fantasy or scenario. Thus my fantasies and the need for constructs has changed over time.
Cheers,
