A Submissive Male Can Still Be a Man
» Emotional Health

I found these words by Laura Goodwin in an old usenet thread:
Beautiful. That’s exactly what I was talking about. Men and women don’t stop being men and women just because they are femdom people who like the woman to be on top. What you accomplish is largely the same, but the difference is in how you go about it. The differences are revealed often only upon close inspection.
Dominant women generally aren’t aggressive and obvious, but that’s because they are women, and women in general aren’t aggressive and obvious. If a man wants to know what pleases his lady, he may have to ask.
What’s wrong with that? Men and women have been like that since we have been male and female. It’s not deliberate. Thank hormones. Hormones are a fact of life. …
Subs: Do you like not having to initiate it all/be in charge?

Laura takes a lot of flak for being very “out there” in the community, as do other people with big egos in other venues. But I’ve had several chats with her over the years, and frankly, as a person I like Laura Goodwin. I tend to agree with much of what she has posted over the years, and I find that she at least gives some thought as to who she is.

I’d dimly known of Laura Goodwin for a couple of years. But lately I’ve been digging in the usenet archives when she Laura Antoniou and Janet Hardy were all posting frequently. Soc.subculture.bondage-bdsm was an exceptional forum back then.
