is it wrong for a woman to want to be in a dominate relationship with a man as long as they have respect?

In my honest opinion, I think males are supposed to be the family leaders and role-models. However, in a dating relationship, I think that there shouldn't be dominance at all. There should be shared opinions, agreements, and love.

All that romantic  stuff, forget it. LISTEN TO THIS VITAL INFORMATION. When she decided to be head of the house, she also decided to grow the balls in the relationship. She feels like she has ultimate control. A relationship is part vulnerablity, part strength. You have to show the stength in this instance, and show her that she is still your beautiful wife who you will tag if you please. I'm not saying against her will. But be very aggressive of what you want from her, your relationship depends on it. If anything wrong happens, at least you were true to yourself. Don't try too hard! Just let the man inside loose. Oh yea and drop off your kids at someones house one weekend. Tell them you'll return the favor.

I say no, because I refuse to see it any other way. I believe if a woman is being who she needs to be for her man and vice versa for husband that shouldn't come up or if they're are problems the relationship needs to be open and strong enough for your spouse to come to you w/ any issues. Am I right or wrong?

Every woman likes to feel like she is a queen.  Open the door for her, tell her she is beautiful at least once a day, and help out around the house (if you live together).  Above all, treat her like you would want to be treated! I think I can speak for all women when saying that possessiveness is the biggest turn off of all.

Most guys do because they feel that taking someone's virginity makes them a man. Others value that a woman can wait for her true love, he may have made mistakes and wrong choices or has had his virginity taken by another woman, but if he's in love and wants to wait to have sex with you, then that's something special. Other men think that a woman that is a virgin is pure, they don't want anyone that has been with men before because it makes them feel dirty. Even though they've been with other women and have done everything possible with regard to sex, they want their woman to be untouched. I don't understand their thinking in this case because if a man wants me to be untouched, I want him to be untouched as well, it goes both ways. But I can respect someone that has dated and has been through things in life just as well as he should respect me or any other woman that has. I'm not saying that men should date promiscous slutty women just because they have been promiscous and slutty and now want to cahnge their ways and settle down. I'm saying respect goes both ways, having something that's of the utmost importance such as a virginity should be on both parts, unless the second example I've stated happens. It's so confusing, but I know people like this, men and women (more men than women) who need to get off their high horses and realize that no one is pure or completely innocent. Good luck with your situation.

I am sorry. I am a man that cares for women. I would never want  a woman to care for me. I would take care of her. She would be my companion, my love to cherish and admire, not a servant nor a  slave. A woman is to be admired and adored, to be respected and to be supportive with.\n  It is an level position, man and woman at the same  level.

No. \nI value myself than more than some man's w****. Because that is what you are making yourself to be.  If the man could not respect me enough to be the one and only than he doesn't have much for me.  Of course he's gonna tell you that lie, but it's a lie.\n\nRespect yourself as a lady, not some mans sex toy or w****.\n\nAnd if that isn't enough think of the other female.  How do you think she feels? And how would you feel if your man was taking out of your mouth and giving it to another female.\n\nIt all boil down to:  RESPECT YOURSELF, BECAUSE WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, for two reasons. Firstly it doesn't seem like you respect the woman for who she is, just what she is. Secondly, you are at a high risk of getting an STD. I would consider settling down and trying to work at an ongoing relationship, and one that sex is not the only thing that you guys do together.

Yes. Women need to feel desired. You can't just flirt and get right to the point that you want to @#$# her!! Have some game!! If you 'win' her over don't you think you will eventually get it anyway? Timing is everything. If you flirt with a self respecting woman (not a whore who will drop it like it's hot for a french fry)then yes, she will NEED not want, but NEED you to show her that you desire all of her including her mind, her conversation, as well as her body.

No not at all, i would kind of find it flattering if i was dating a male virgin and he wanted to do the deed with me.  Even if he didnt want a sexual relationship and wanted to stay celebate i would still respect it.  Any person male or female who has respect for themselves in that way should be commended.

There's no way I'd ever be any man's slave. If an older man loved me and treated me good well than I'd definitely be with him. Respect and love is vital for any relationship. If a man treats you as a slave there is no respect there.

sounds like to me she is just confused. she is used to being the dominate person in the relationship and as u know men are "the dominate ones" most of the time.  yeh she prolly does get a little shakey when ure around, i would be too if i had never been with a man before!!

I'm not sure if 'maverious' is an english word!! So its difficult to understand what you are asking. Are you asking our opinion with regards to a situation where a woman supports a man financially?? If so, I see nothing wrong in it. In this age of equality it is up the partners in a relationship to determine what makes the relationship work. If a woman is capable of supporting a man and the man supports the relationship in other ways (and vice versa) where is the problem? We no longer live in a world of - me Tarzan you Jane!

Men want to be acknowledged, loved and admired. They also want a woman to be open, loving and kind.  A man will stay with a woman who respects herself.  Most relationships fall apart when a woman gives up who she is to please their man, she'll usually get taken advantage of and will be disrespected for it.  Staying true to yourself and yet respecting the good things a man brings to the table - they usually eat it up every time.

There are some men who do prefer submissive women.  But they're immature and very insecure.  I don't trust those men to not be jealous and controlling.  There are also plenty of men who truly appreciate women as people.  They will listen to you as though you have something important to say and value you as an individual.  It just depends on the man.  They're all individuals and all different.  \nI think it's better to be independant.  Women who are submissive do a disservice to themselves and men by not taking responsibility for their own lives.  They are allowed to sit back and relax and know that whatever goes wrong in their lives, they're going to blame their husband because he is the man, and he's supposed to make all the decisions.  It has always struck me as a selfish attitude.  And shameful, because it throws out personal resposibility for how their lives turned out.\nAnd skifaster is making a broad generalization because some people find it easier to make people into groups so that their free to not think about them as people with rationality.  That way they don' t have to respect others.  Shame on you skifaster.

Real men don't hit women.  Only insecure men do this.  If such men can't be on even ground with women mentally or emotionally, they try to dominate physically.\n\nAnd no, it's not wrong to fight back.  But it is pointless to stay in such a relationship.  Why would you want to be in a relationship where you have to physically fight?

Yes, and maybe women should dominate the relationships, and go off to work leaving five men at home all day.  Somehow I don't think you would like that idea nearly so much.\n\nAny culture or religion that allows men to be in charge of women, especially in numbers, wants to keep women subservient to men and to keep them shut out of anything they could have any influence on.  They also tend to be much more tolerant of men physically and verbally abusing women.\n\nThe men in these relationships are happy because they are in total control and can have sex whenever they want to because if one woman isn't in the mood, another is bound to be.  The women are only contented because it is the only life they have ever known; it is how they are taught they are supposed to live, and they are never allowed to develop their intellects enough to consider that there might be other options.
