Oh my gosh so this can mean a great many things. Here are a few places I see this going. One way is that many women expect a man to initiate and follow through. For example, a guy should be the one to ask the girl to be his girlfriend, say I love you first, ask her on a date (and have the date planned out before he picks her up), leans in for a kiss first etc.
It could also mean: the guy should be the one to make more money, or be in charge of the finances, be physically/emotionally stronger, provide security and do more of these sorts of things than the girl.
Perhaps it means be the spiritual leader: encouraging growth with the Lord, prayer and spiritual growth.
In short: It is really SEXY when a man knows what he wants, goes for it, sees it through to the end and takes our breath away. Confidence is key with one.
If you really want to know its best to find out in which way she wants you to be dominant. Bedroom perhaps? Sometimes we just want a man to throw us on the bed and f our brains out or sometime read us well enough to know when we want it slow and sweet.
Help at all?

I agree with you that leading and being dominant are the same thing when referring to romantic relationships. I think that being those things just means that the person tends to jump in and assumes control over most situations, making the majority of decisions, such as planning dates, paying for bills, purchasing various things (cars, a house, etc.). While I wouldn't mind if my guy wanted to take control with some things, it's only fair that I have my own domains to rule in our relationship. That way things are equal. But no matter who does what, I think we both need to understand all of the decisions being made... For instance, both should know how to pay bills, in case some emergency happens and the other can't do it. That way you aren't screwed later.
When it comes to raising kids, though, there should be collaboration, and not a dominant/submissive mindset. That's what part of marrying and having kids is about in my opinion... blending your morals and values together to make your own set of "rules" for raising your kids and making other kinds of decisions.

A lot of women are raised to believe that men are hunters and they don't want to be hunted. So if a female wants you to take the lead in the relationship she wants you to call and make plans, talk to her daily etc. Women need to feel needed and wanted and that's hard to do if they feel like they have to chase and make all the decisions.
I.think taking the lead is.diffrent from being dominance. I think when a person is dominant its like "its me, my rules, blah blah". But taking the lead is part of being a man and making sure your woman is Taken care of. Maybe no one will agree with me but if.I'm reading the question right that's my thought.
more like the head over your relationship. you are the one making the decisions, etc.. I'm my relationship there is no lead. we are both far to dominant to let someone take the lead lol
this means your the boss! Do whatever you like to her lol
