Submission Is...

Frequently, people mistake submissiveness for weakness or stupidity. Nothing could be further from the truth in most cases. Some exhibit a diminished capacity; at times, conditioning is the cause, as they are merely a “persona” they adopt, and others imply a natural fact. However, on the whole, experience has shown that many powerful and intelligent people adopt a submissive lifestyle in settings where they are not in a position of authority, as a release from the pressures of decision-making or simply as a form of catharsis. Psychologically speaking, there’s nothing at all wrong with the “true” type of submissive.

The “True” submissive is:

They are never allowed to say "No" to their dominant.
Never allowed to be dishonest with anyone.
Frequently inexperienced, untaught and looking to please by being perceived as useful.
Trainable and can be educated to exhibit the behaviour desired by their dominant.
Often shy, under-spoken, docile, servile and entirely willing to do anything asked.
Needs encouragement, emotional and social support from a decisive dominant figure.
They need some guidance, structure, and discipline to flourish.
Usually aware of the wants, needs, and expectations of their dominant.
They are not as concerned with their wants, needs, and expectations.
Allowed to want, need and expect things as any other individual would.
Willing to serve anyone in a dominant role.
Confused at times by bad advice from an unworthy dominant or an online submissive.
Needing discipline from anyone claiming to be dominant.
