Hi,

Roles we adopt in life are important to the relationships we occupy.

The roles we have are varied due to the results we are after or the circumstances we are in.

For instance the work self differs from the home self.

A healthy relationship has mutally respected roles. Each person bringing value to the relationship. Not aways having to be equal but must be satisfying to the inner self, not the perception of the self your wish to portray.

Summary, submissive and dominant are not gender related, but socially related. Historically men are seen as dominant and have in cases enforced submissivnes in women. But in reality men and women can inhabit both roles and move between them aswell.

Cheers hope this helped some.
