Or, would you say most women actually perfer submissive men?

To be more specific, I’m talking about men who are submissive in their role in the relationship as a partner and also sexually.

It’s an interesting, I guess, maybe taboo sort of topic that I would like opinions on.

Thank you for reading.

    I sense that the question belies a mindset that romance is a numbers game, and I am eager to point out that it’s not. Success in love, in my experience, comes from the willingness to share yourself with others and the courage to be vulnerable.

    Don’t worry about how many people would like what you’ve got to offer. Focus on genuine connections with the people in your orbit, and branch out from there.

    Caveat: unless you’re surrounded by abusers

    It is hard to estimate but in general I would say there are more submissives of any gender than dominants interested in them.

    There are going to be as many opinions on this as there are women who like having sex with men. Some women like dominant men, some like submissive men, some like doms on even days and subs on odd days. Some only like doms on a full moon. Im using silly examples, but the point is human sexuality can’t come anywhere close to fitting into binaries like this. Individuals have their preferences, and no two individuals’ preferences are going to be the same.

      Actually on the question of “do you like submissive men?”, since it’s a yes or no question there’s going to be two opinions on this.

      I’m hoping to find a woman who likes pedantic men, myself.

    In my experience, on the whole, no. I’ve found being a submissive man actively repulses many women, some will entertain it but aren’t into it, and a very small minority enjoy being dominant- and a significant number of those charge for it.

    Pro dommes wouldn’t be a thing if submissive men were more universally accepted.

    There’s all kinds of reasons for this and there is no one size fits all answer. I speak only from my experience.
