That's YOUR opinion. Not everyone formed the same conclusion from the OP that you did.

No trenchcoat? Her game is slipping.

Nobody bothered to investigate, certainly not the proponents of submissiveness and it only took two seconds. What's the point of having an uninformed opinion? That goes back to the intellectual laziness noted on the first or second page. Isn't it about laziness? If not, explain further. As a submissive you want to obey. I can understand the sexual kink, but for day-to-day living? It's a person that really doesn't want to grow up. That's understandable as well, and I'm sure many manage not to take on the responsibilities of being a grown up, but at the same time I have to wonder if it's often sustainable.

I think submission is an act of faith...and love. It take a strong (SMART!) woman to shut her mouth for a minute, stick her ego in the back pocket of her jeans and let her man do what he was born to do: lead, and allow him to use his abilities and strength to make life better for them both. Submissive is not passive, though. The relationship and the man has need of her gifts and talents. Her sense of nurturance, the benefit of her own wisdom and experiences come to mind. A wise man welcomes them when they are shared with him. The woman can use them to help the man advance his status in the world. When a couple has it going on like this they are unbreakable and unstoppable.

This reminds me of Redisca's repsonse, which would be fitting for your post. So, the only two options are submissive or offering complete sh*t in a relationship? I don't doubt that you have those experiences with women, but imo the people we have in our lives says much about who we are.

There's no right or wrong its all subjective which is obvious with the different interpretations of submissive that's being expressed in this thread. You've stated your opinion on the issue and there's a couple posts that explains their stance on the issue so maybe you should question those posts for better understanding.

Are you a submissive woman?
What kind of jack@ss list is this? Total bunk.

I'm highlighting the obvious based on the evidence that has surfaced in this thread. You started the thread. You are a proponent of submissiveness. Of course, I'm interested in your take on the matter. Why do you have a need to obey? Your OP states you should know yourself well, so you should be able to answer the question.
