(Actually, there are probably some societies where the idea of male submission is probably extremely in the closet).
Indeed there are, Ma'am. There are many such societies in the world where men are still considered weak, if submissive. But i guess it's only a matter of time before W/we become so engrossed in our own lives that W/we don't really have the time to shun others!

Femdoms, how would we operate in such a society? How would we deal with the anxiety of wondering how to broach the subject with a new partner, and when would it be "safe" to so, and risk having him stop seeing you because he thought you were crazy?
I think some of us have dealt with this in a small sense (and ironically, I think male subs deal with this issue in their world all the time). Imagine the balancing act of trying to get a man to allow some experimentation and not be at odds with himself for enjoying it?
Do you think we deal with this, or a form of this, even now?

It is interesting to note that these questions come from a Femdom, for as you have rightly pointed out, submissive men often go through similar anxiety, if not more.
Dominant and submissive desires are independent of boundaries - geographical, political, religious, economical etc. But it is the culture in a particular society that determines how convenient or inconvenient it would be, for people to express such desires to their partners.
A Femdom in your society, for example, may be more at ease with expressing her power and authority over the men in her life, as compared to one from India. In fact, i have myself come across Femdoms in India who think it is "weird" that they feel this way about men.
Femdoms in "traditional" and "conservative" societies would no doubt find it more of a challenge than a privilege, to approach a male partner with the idea of incorporating BDSM into their life. So, i guess such anxiety is experienced by Femdoms everywhere, depending on how aware the male is, of the existence of such desires in a woman.

Have you ever brought up the idea of BDSM and had a male partner dump you because of it?
There are in fact clubs within India, that cater exclusively to men who have been abused by their wives. These clubs enroll men who have been "victims" of physical, emotional or mental "abuse" by their wives. In another society, the same acts might have been viewed from a different, and more respectful perspective. So yes, there are a number of such cases that keep coming up from time to time, where men wish to cut off all ties with women who have a tendency to get "violent".
In response to the topic:
A world with no sub males would be incomplete, i guess. Like they say, it takes all kinds. A Femdom is a "dom" because she is able to express this aspect of her nature to her submissives, without whom it would probably remain a "weird" fantasy throughout her life! It would be exactly the same way that a submissive male would feel in a world without Femdoms. Hope this never happens though!
My apologies to Ms. Akasha for having responded to this thread, inspite of it having clearly been addressed to Femdoms. I only felt that i had something to contribute, without really ruining the purpose of the thread!
(Although i do wonder why some people are misreading the topic as "a world with no males")
