I don't think women are expected to be submissive, I think it's men that are the one's that are expected to be dominant.I think that's why fellow men lose respect for a man with a dominant wife and not lose respect for the woman for not being submissive. :')
I consider those men (who lose respect for a man with a woman who respects herself) to be really insecure. I know a lot of them in the extended family ... most of them are chronically and involuntarily single.

There's a difference between the two things you're talking about.
Pool is talking about dominance and submission. Irrational, you're talking someone having respect for themselves/ not having respect for themselves.
Dominance or submission aren't really definite indicators of self respect.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

In the west, people look at men like you as being very, very insecure about something. Maybe you have a tiny penis?
If The Flintstones have taught us anything, it's that pelicans can be used to mix cement.

First, to be clear, nowhere in that quote did I say that submissiveness implies lack of respect for oneself. Not saying that's how you interpreted it, but just saying.
Second, I think it's clear what pool means when he says "dominant". Read his prior posts.

Don't underestimate coral reefs.
I was actually trying to give Pool the benefit of the doubt.

Me, I want my woman to be my equal ... to be strong enough to take my force of personality and be able to tell me when I'm screwing up, to be smart and confident enough to tell me to fuck off when I'm being an asshole, compassionate enough to give me support when I'm down, empathetic enough to cheerlead when I'm riding high.
I'm not interested in a doormat. I don't need to step on someone else to feel like I'm rising, myself.

I was just replying to this post. I don't know what pool means when he says dominant.

Yeah, lucky him. I'm sure his future wife is so excited to be so submissive to a clear hunk like him. She's gonna love him for life.
