You can lead without dominating. You can follow without submitting.[/quote]
No, you cant.[/quote]
No?[/quote]
No, and I find the squirming in this thread to avoid the word “dominance” amusing.
Yall know that it works, you know that women want it, but for some reason it does not sit right.
Either it must be “playful” and “confined to the bedroom”, or conflated with other stuff, or arranged just so that she is effectively dominating from the bottom…
No.
Its ok to go out and conquer, its ok to try to take control of your environment, its ok swoop up a woman and take her along for the ride and its ok to WANT TO.
Its just not easy, especially not in todays society, which is why men are not born but MADE.
If you lead and she follows, you are dominating her and, since you probably do not have her on a leash in your dungeon, she probably stays because that is the way she likes it.[/quote]
I think this is another example of the manosphere/PUA’s tendency to view the world in black and white. I think leadership is the trait that women seek, not dominance. If you lead and she follows, then she is willing to follow - how does that make her “dominated”? What happens when she chooses not to follow in certain circumstances? Does she have to? Will someone’s fragile sense of self be threatened if she balks?
Women like men who are confident and strong. Feminine women tend to be flexible and agreeable by nature, which may suggest that they are pliable. However, I think men also seek strength and confidence in a partner. Strength and confidence in an agreeable and flexible woman suggest she is NOT dominated, but rather following by choice. Pliable only insofar as she is able to be without compromising her own values.
Dominated = cowed.
Even sexually there is room for female aggression, or at least one hopes there is. While I may not be a able to tackle someone to the ground who outweighs me by 80 lbs, I can certainly try - here is where the playful comes in, no? Because my aggression is met with male size and strength. Very sexy, that.

Yeah, thats dancing around the issue.
Also, if a woman tells you how to do it properly she is dominating from the bottom, which is no bueno…
“I listen to you, but I do not obey you” may be aggravating in the short run but it is sexy as hell and you know it.
It is the same as you trying to tackle him and fail, its “run up against big strong man and see if he can take it” just on an emotional level.
Which would be a nice way of explaining what a shittest is.
