Intelligence and Submission.

[damyanti]

I don't equate intelligence as something where dominants have sole or superior claim...just look around at all the smart(assed, lol) submissives here.

I don't see honorifics as necessary, because I think that which is given easily isn't very valuable and carries little meaning. When I address someone as sir (other than in jest) or master it has a deeper meaning....but thats just me.

As for other people. I don't particularly care either way, but I do sometimes find posts with all the little "i" and "W/we" and no punctuations exasperating because they are difficult to read.

I myself am strong personality, so strong personalities are a huge turn on. I have little interest in someone who is weaker than myself.

Do you equate proper dictation with Dominance? Why, or why not?

No, Dominance is personality trait, not a product of education. An illiterate could be Dominant, and I am sure there are submissives who have a Ph D in English.


Do you see honorifics as a necessity? Why, or why not?

They are not a necessity. Submission is a gift bestowed by a submissive to a Dominant. The fact that the gift is bestowed once does not mean that all others are entitled to partake of it.


Do you find a strong personality to be a turn on or a turn off? Why?

A strong personality is essential. It is an indication that the gift of submission is bestowed by choice, not due to need or force of circumstance.
