ORIGINAL: mons it takes more to be the submissive then to be the dominant one. That may be your opinion, but I totally disagree. That type of statement seems akin to the "Submission is gift!" anthem, played ad nauseum as if all the dominants are supposed to bow in humble awe to the ineffable generosity of any sub willing to wear a collar. News flash: Dominance, done right, is every bit as much a gift, and "takes" every bit as much (effort? time? responsibility?) as submission. quote:
too me a submisive me is strong, men are not sue to be told what and when to do something. Are you trying to say that it's somehow harder for submissively inclined men to submit than it is for women to submit? From what I've known and seen of the malesubs, I guess I just don't see this. It could be my perception, but I see far more posts from submissive women doing the soul searching and self-reflection of what it means to be sub, slave, kajira, or whatever. Beyond that, cultural changes have made passivity (*ehem* submissiveness) among men far more acceptable; whereas that same political correctness demands that a woman who actually wants to be submissive should be put in a time machine and sent back 100 years. Think about it: At work, if a man says, "Yeah, my wife pretty much runs the show" no one bats an eye. It's almost quaint. But if a woman says, "Oh yes, I'm submissive to my husband/boyfriend/significant-other, and yes I enjoy it" then the glares and eye rolling begin. Many of the women I know get the hardest time about their submission not from the men, but from other (obviously non-lifestyle) women. So I just don't see evidence for your point about how submissive men have is so much easier or how it comes so much harder for them. quote:
it takes a long time to get a good real submissive man to trust and to give all he has not money but his body his mind to me . Most women won't "give all [she] has" out without just as much consideration, I assure you. quote:
so if the male is damage is the female submissive damage as well ? If you're trying to ask if submission (or the lifestyle itself for that matter) comes from abuse, that's been discussed a zillion times. I'd look up the links, but I'm sure if you ask kindly a very fortunate feathered flyer will be happy to drop in with a few. In the mean time, let me give the absolute definitive answer to the abuse question: "Sometimes." There you have it.
