Something that often struck me when I was reading the FLR themed blogs was how often the woman said that she’d never entertained the concept of ruling her husband until he introduced it.
Understandable. Liberal humanists tend to think of pure gender equality. Socially traditional people want the male to be an aggressor. And fundagelicals like Mike Huckabee think the Mrs. should submit herself to the Mr.
Another proof that lust keeps the world spinning on its axis. Much better to accept that than to pretend we are genital-less Ken and Barbie dolls.

It has nothing to do with gender equality or equal opportunity generally in society or the world. There is no set of roles which are “best” for most people. Each couple should have the relationship which makes them the happiest, whether that is male-led, equal, or female-led, and iwthin those catagories, there are infinite variations. A FLR can be one in which the female totally controls only certain decisions, or one in which she has total control over every aspect of the relationhsip. If it’s going to be a true FLR, then in my view the female should have permanent total control, but some would regard that as extreme.
