Are women turned on by dominant men ?

Women are attracted to confident,self assured and capable men.They are also attracted by their skills, abilities, and achievements. They maybe dominant in their chosen fields but for a long term relationship,women find it unattractive as they could be domineering in the household.

The women want someone whom she can respect and admire but who have a weak spot for them . He can protect her from outsiders or walk over them .In essence they want to have control over him .It can be so subtle that he is not being aware of it.

Men are expected to be dominant in the marriage.It has been the norm since the ages.There are dominant as well as submissive men and the same goes for women.It is finding the right type that suits you or attracted to you . Opposites may attract.

You cannot have everything in life and sometimes you have to submit to each other.Being submissive all the time can be depressing. There is no freedom and you can chaff under the yoke. It would be better if you can compromise sometimes and meet each other half way. It may not be the most ideal situation but at least it makes both of your satisfied.Give and take some .

Sometimes the women maybe the dominant partner but in the back of her mind , she may fantasize being dominated by the men.It will only remain a fantasy unless the men are pushed or received a kick in their butts.

They want dominant men but are turned off by domineering men.This sounds paradoxical. Men have a bigger ego and they do not want to lose out to their women.

Women want to be loved and cherish by strong and amicable men . A dominant men may attract her at first but if he does not know how to temper his dominance, he will lose her in the end.

If you are a submissive or vulnerable women , you would naturally be attracted to a strong and dominant man.
