What are your thoughts on dominant women?

[TomGarand]

And NO, I do not mean sexually. I mean in terms of who leads in relationships. In other words, what are your thoughts on women who are the leader in their relationships?

I've made it clear that I prefer them, but I'm asking because a lot of guys think these women are just bad. They're either called masculine, or seen as nagging or emasculating. And God forbid a man actually dates one! 'Cause then he's called a pussy, beta, cuck, simp, et cetera.

That's not actually true. Not all of them are nagging, screeching feminists who love finding weak men to cuck.

I actually have a BFF who I talk about Yu-Gi-Oh with. And he has a younger sister who's dominant--both in and out of the bedroom. She calls me "Puppy" as a cute nickname, since I'm shorter than her (I'm 5'6, she's 5'10 and a half), so I'll call her "Wolf." And now that a billing problem that my BFF had is cleared up, she and I can speak to each other more often.

And Wolf knows about me and called me very handsome, despite me being shorter and weaker than her. She's not muscular, but she does more heavy lifting than my BFF. She doesn't emasculate men at all, and is actually reasonable when she asks people to do something. I actually wanna spend more time with Wolf and see if anything happens between us.

She's bigger than me, stronger than me, was taught to fight by her mom, loves horror movies and she's a complete alpha. She's not exactly a tomboy, but I still think she'd be a good partner for me.

So for everyone else here, what are your thoughts on women who are dominant in their relationships?

(And bamesjond0069, Hispanic-Cool-Guy? I know you two are gonna call me a simp who's got no balls. Come at me, niggas.)

I think anyone who jumps into a situation to protect people whether it's a woman who protects some timid husband in a fire or a husband who protects some timid wife while haggling in a market is admirable.

I like protectors. I am biased this way. I think protectors are the best people on the planet.

[DrunkAss]

I don't have a gender bias here. I don't care about the genitalia of the protector. I do have a bias in that I think being a protector is the highest and most responsible and most moral state of any human being. The protector is the greatest thing the human can aspire to be. People who aren't protectors are either leeches or bullies (a more violent type of leech) in my opinion.

I think maybe you get too hung up on dom/sub. You love your girl and she's trapped in a dangerous situation and if her feelings are true, she rescues you. She becomes a protector. Protectors provide real love, even if you are ten times stronger than her. And you do the same for her. That is love. This is not dom/sub thing. This is a love thing.

[...] You love your girl and [you're] trapped in a dangerous situation [...]

Like mother->child, breaking through car windows and rescuing their children. There is no gender bias when things reach the extremities. Women summon enormous strength in these situations. My thoughts are muddled but I think you are right when you will be willing to claw through windshields and tear off windshields to rescue the one you love... as a mother would to her child. That's not a dom/sub thing. That's about loving something with ever fiber of your heart. That's a commitment thing.

Here's the thing. Most men are masculine / dominant while most women are submissive / feminine. Romantic relationships don't work well when there are two dominant personalities, so there is nothing wrong with a man enjoying the company of a dominant woman if he is submissive. But certainly not my cup of tea.

I appreciate it. Thing is with power, you can't let it go to your head. No one has ever loved a tyrant. Humble leaders are the ones most fondly remembered.
