On the Offensive

I've often read that many submissive women are actually in positions of authority and power during their normal lives...work, personal but non-sexual relationships, financial, family hierarchy. It makes sense to me, that being in control creates a desire...no, a need...to throw off those metaphorical shackles in favor of physical shackles.

The slippery slope logic follows, then, that men or women who gravitate towards dominance have the opposite situation. They are weak or powerless in their normal lives, yes?

I don't like to think of it this way, yet so often those I meet (virtually, really, I don't give them much of a shake in terms of meeting in person) are ones with a grudge against the opposite sex, ones who were controlled by their mother or father, ones who don't work, can't provide, have no concept of social responsibility or obligation.

Again, I am saying slippery slope logic, so as not to offend (much). I know there are those who do not fit this description, who are strong simply because they are, not in reaction to being made weak during a formative stage in their lives.

But they are few and far between. I'm not complaining, mind you, I'm just making a statement. I don't mind the wait.

But to any of you who read my blog and who match that description...man up. Sort yourself. Don't take submission as your due simply because you added Sir or Master to an online profile.
