Do men dislike dominant women?

No, not all men dislike dominant women. People's preferences and attitudes towards dominant or assertive individuals can vary significantly and are influenced by personal beliefs, cultural norms, and individual experiences.

While some men may feel uncomfortable or intimidated by assertive women, there are also many men who appreciate and value strong, independent, and confident women. Some men find assertiveness attractive and see it as a desirable trait in a partner or a friend.

It's important to recognize that generalizations about the preferences of an entire gender can be misleading and inaccurate. Each individual has their own unique preferences, and it's essential to respect and appreciate the diversity of opinions and attitudes towards dominant or assertive behavior.

Ultimately, healthy relationships are built on mutual respect, understanding, and compatibility. It's important to find someone who appreciates and supports you for who you are, including your strengths, assertiveness, and independence.

It'll work out the opposite way.

Very broadly speaking and skipping switches, peoplee that are neither or either if we're talking sexually then men are about 50/50 on leaning more dominant or submissive. It might be 60/40, but its closer to even than a strong majority either way.

Women in turn have a strong tendency towards a more submissive role. Probably upwards of 80%. Still leaves a good 20% though.

That means that, realistically, 20% of dominant women share 40% or men whereas 80% of submissive women share 60% of men.
And so realitically, if a woman was upfront about being dominant/submissive then being dominant would see a lot more men interested in her while simultaneously having a somewhat smaller pool of men to work with.

It would be nice if a straight male who isn’t into pegging and strapons liked dominant women. It seems only bisexual and closeted males prefer dominant women

Some do, some don't. There's someone out there for everyone, I guess.

Yes I think most do. The reason is that a dominant woman makes a man feel like he´s dating a second mum that´s trying to control him and trying to form him into a person he doesn´t want to be.
There are some guys nowadays that say they are into dominant guys though but that´s often not because they are submissive but they are actually either lazy or they are insecure or they want to live out a fetish. But often those guys aren´t happy with their choice they are just miserable and don´t want to change anything about it so they live a life being used by others.

I dislike dom/sub dynamics in general, I don't want a woman who is either, and I don't want to be either. I just want to marry and hump a hot female best friend who agrees with me on everything and shares my hobbies and interests, I don't see how a power struggle is in any way needed.

Dominant how?

Her being sexually forward and in charge? Love it.

Her being assertive, getting what she wants in life (within respectful boundaries) and not being a slave? That's cool!

Her trying to control me or make me her slave or inflict more than just mild pain or harms my health directly or indirectly? I'm out!

[Berethor]

Yea if she want to peg me, I strongly dislike gay stuff, amazons are cool, no problem for me.

People dislike being emasculated or treated like less then.

If dominant means being an asshole or acting like animals act then yes people dislike that.

Not really, no. Men like women who are hot, fun and nice. If a woman can display dominance without sacrificing any of those that's all good. BUT if in being dominant she ends up being less hot, fun and/or nice, then that's going to be a problem.

[richardcory]

I think you need to separate bedroom play dominant and controlling. Bedroom play dominant is lots of fun. Controlling in real life - not at all

[Bricealan]

To a point, I do, but when they throw me down the stairs, I dont' like that much. They can, sit on my face and grind around, back and forth, and have me do all of that.

[slatyb]

What do you mean by "dominant" ? Sexually dominant, or wanting to control decisions about the relationship?

[Pete671]

Naturally confident is awesome, bossy type bitches disgust me,,,

[BlackJeep]

You will have some guys that like dominant women. We call those men pussies. Men will avoid dominant women because it comes with a lot of drama.

[KrakenAttackin]

Huge turnoff. Men are exhausted by "modern" (bitchy, contrary, argumentative, relentless) women. If she is hot you might tolerate her shit a little longer but eventually she has to go.

[ProbablyClueless]

I don't dislike them as people, but I have found that a lot of them insecure and exhausting to deal with.

[mommymommymommy]

some do, some don't. i think a lot of them like that, in bed, but, not out of it. women tend to like that too. theyll be the sub out of bed, but the dom in bed, not sure why

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

I like women who are dominant against me.

[Anonymous]

i think most men dislike dominant women just like most women dislike submissive men.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

I don't like those type of women at all. Big turn off.

I like my women submmisive at least for me.

[Hanrej]

No, but we are guarded and more selective about dominant women. Making a wrong choice could have disastrous effects on your life.

[SnowedIn]

I don't dislike them.

[Yannishka]

The submissive men don't.

[strateguy632]

if you meant bossy...

[Billlewis]

Hell, no, we love 'em!

[asphaltrhymes]

In most contexts, yes like romantic, dating. 😀

[RavVid]

I think of them as uppity. And yes.

[AnusNdaPainus]

[DextroShade]

[Raaj4you]

Domination in bed is good not in life.
