@BNE , I was once 1000% against the likelihood of being submissive to any man. It was because of my one-sided definition of the term. Submissive in my description of submissive behavior was losing my identity, having no opinion, unworthy, incapable, and restricted of doing anything outside of pleasing your man, house duties, and bearing children. I pretty much related the characteristics to slavery. So I'm thinking, "Never...ever...ever...EVER will I be anybody's slave. DF?"
My stance has changed only because I decided to become a little bit more open-minded and educated about the idea. I've learned that submitting to your man isn't a sign of weakness or discontinuing who you are as a person. It only means that you let the man lead, you allow him to make decisions, and just stand behind those decisions. Pretty much let him be King, but remember you are also the Queen. If you trust his movement, he treats you like the Queen you are, and respects you as a woman, what would be the reason for rejecting that role? I believe it's all about your views and what you're willing to accept and not accept, honestly. Everybody's relationship is different.
So I guess becoming more conscious of where I want to be and why has significantly changed my approach on the subject. Also toning down my stubbornness has permitted me to becoming vulnerable to the idea. I have no issue real issue to why I would decline not taking my husband's last name. We become one and we're building our own family. That's dope to me.
