Do you think that most cases when the man is sticking his dick in the woman that she is submitting by him penetrating her. I was thinking about this the other day. I think for the most part it is. She basically agrees for him to be inside her. And a lot of the time lays with legs spread or kneels. What do y’all think.
 
I'm going to channel Hubby's lawyer mind and say it depends... :D

For me, I would say that it often is. But then again, I have a submissive personality.

Except when I don't. It is more rare, but I can be assertive, even aggressive, when the mood strikes me. Hubby would tell you some of the best sex we've had is when I am in the mood where I want to be in control, especially when I'm on top. But I don't have to be on top to be this way. A woman can be on her back, legs spread, and still set the pace and the intensity of sex. :devil:
 
Assuming it is consensual, I would argue the opposite... At least psychologically. The ease with which a woman can arouse a man means she holds the power over his mind. Which, IMO is far more powerful than the body.
 
No. Submissive means she is meekly obedient or passive to the will of someone else. Just because the missionary position has the guy on top, poking his dick in her doesn't make it a submissive act because if she's on top, what does it become then?
I'm not saying it can't be submissive, but opening your legs doesn't make it so.

Thank you for putting that much more eloquently than I did! Exactly my point! :)
 
I do not consider myself submissive at all but I often invite him to take me but it is what I have requested. I do not consider missionary as a submissive position even though he is on top. I can fully participate while on the bottom. If I am in the mood to be taken, I usually prefer doggy or prone.

I’d have to say it depends on the person. You looking at it as the glass is half empty, the penis is penetrating the vagina. The half full side is the vagina is consuming or engulfing the penis.

You hear a lot of things like “he’s pussy whipped” or “she’s got him wrapped around her finger”. Guys will do a lot for pussy, so who’s really the dominant one?

A woman once said "Just because a woman surrenders does not mean she is defeated!" So I disagree that she is submitting. I've known women who can totally possess the man inside her (and yes, I loved it)! Welcome to the Battle of the Sexes!

You make my point nicely! Have you ever possessed the man inside you?

Absolutely, she can!
 
Not really. Consensual sex means that the woman is equally letting the man penetrate inside her, by that it could be either missionary or cowgirl. In my understanding, she becomes a submissive when she grants the man the liberty to do her as and when he wants to do her. Maybe I could be wrong on this, so I'm happy to be corrected.
 
Although I'm not a biologist, my amateur observation is that the biological imperative is to procreate, but there is no instinctive compulsion to procreate, merely to copulate, which serves the same purpose. Humans are unique in that the female will copulate even though she's not in estrus, unlike most other mammals. I have observed male street dogs lined up to take their turn with a bitch in heat, the female patiently allowing them to mount her, ejaculate and dismount........ NEXT! In most species that reproduce sexually, human's included, it's the male's compulsion to deliver his seed and the female's responsibility merely to collect it.
 
hey...

if thats her mind set then yeah it is an act of submission...but it sounds like someone is really just, searching for an excuse to get controversial and contentious.

Yes, entrenching willling the very act of submissiveness.
 
I love this question..

It depends! Both?

I view penetrative sex as me allowing, or accepting a lovers penis/cock Since I’m actually doing this I feel it’s a “dominant” act.

However I can also be in a more subservient frame of mind. I feel as though I’m “submitting myself” to them. The feeling of being led/guided, or taken by a lover can be quite a turn on.
 
As a guy who has never and would never stick my dick in a woman without her consent- my answer is no. She has the power to say yes or no. I realize some people are naturally submissive/dominant. I realize sex can be a lot of fun, AND games.

But to steal a thought from an unknown genius, women have half the money and all the pussy. They are in charge.
 
That might be the best quote ever.

I like that one.
 
I really feel it is what is in your head. If you feel submissive then you probably are during the act. It is the dynamic between the man and the woman, sometimes the man is dominant, many times the woman is dominant. But there may be times that nobody feels dominant or submissive.

An example is a woman giving a BJ to her man on her knees. Is that submissive? What if she has clothes on and he doesn't? Like what others said above it depends, and I think the main part of what is in her head.

No. I'm accepting his cock in me.

As I'm submissive, I give my body to my partner to do what he wishes. But that's because it works for us and our power dynamic, and not because I'm a woman and he's a man or I'm the penetrated and he's the penetrator.

Being Daddy's submissive is how we define our sexual relationship in the bedroom for us, it has nothing to do with penetration being a dominating act or not.
 
Mostly it is mental. When I am on top, I have most of the control. When I am on the bottom, I have given him the physical control but still have some control. My preference is to share control and share the pleasure. There is also some supply and demand at work at least at my age. I am 64 and according to many men, there is more cock available than there is pussy. Being a good capitalist, I hope to take advantage.
 
I think it can be, but doesn't necessarily need to be. It depends on the dynamic.

When my wife is on top, there's nothing submissive about it.
 
The woman's role in sex can be submissive or dominant or neutral or whatever she wants it to be. But it isn't intrinsically any of those things. And as a general comment (as others have said) women hold most of the power in sexual relations, so I start from the premise that whatever transpires it is because she let it transpire.
 
Can't speak for women but IME status exists in all interactions and there is always a dominant and submissive - this can shift in an interaction several times.

As for the act of sex itself, you've already got several perspectives, it is what you decide it is. Two people can even simultaneously imagine they are currently the dominant one. The beautiful thing about (consensual) sex is it usually finds its own balance, I don't see it as one party holding power over another. Besides, nobody can have power over you if you are willing to walk away.
