Jasmyn -> RE: Being submissive and submitting?? (6/16/2004 9:25:27 AM)

Aint that the truth! Was out with vanilla friends a while back, we were organising a party and were shopping for gifts and novelties to give away on the night. I happened to carry some bags when asked to and later was floored to be berated by one of my vanilla friends in front of a group of people at a bbq that I was not dominant because I did as I was told earlier that day. Given this friend had her tired, cranky three year old in her arms, and the other friend knew the store owner and was negotiating some more deals, I was more than happy to play packhorse.
Why on earth Raymond do you think being courteous and helpful is an act of submission?
Knees2you ... the simply answer to your question is yes....many people are inherently submissive, but most would have no idea we have a label for it, rather see themselves as being less assertive than the next person.
In a D/s relationship sense...I believe submission should be exactly what it is, chosing and being subservient to a dominant figure and shouldn't be negated.
However being submissive in terms of respect of a certain someone or a certain label, without a personal agreement of power exchange, has no element of 'submitting', but courteousy based on how you wish to interact with someone/people.
