gypsy,
You have exerted a good amount of energy on this topic, and have made a good attempt at looking at things from my point of view. While I respect your input I would have to just point out that everyone is going to have their own point of view and opinion of things in life. I can only speak from my experiences, and what I have researched and witnessed.
IMO - Any relationship that you come across no matter who is in control and what type of relationship you have they all rely on a give and take foundation and we all have challenges that we have to meet. But, overcoming the challenges and having those 'make up' moments are what makes things count.
It is what you make out it. Things are changing out in the world. Look at the work place is your boss a man or a woman? More bosses are becoming women because alot of them are very demanding, like to show off, and if you are a woman who looks good, men will bend over backwards for you too.
So imagine a female running the household. Alot of people dont think about it but many relationships are now turning that way. The husband gets laid off the wife is now the one who is paying most of the bills so she now has the chain of command. When someone is the sole provider the other person in the relationship has to respect that person more.
There are many ways to interpret this type of relationship base, this is just one example.
Not spamming, just believe in the methods that Paige preaches and wanted to offer that specialty to people who could be interested in learning more on that topic. I know I am a newbie here, but I have been following this website for a few days now and I have found a lot of the reads intriguing but not a lot of direction on a specific topic.
