The concept of submission is to some people a provocative concept. It becomes even more provocative is you talk about submission in a context that is outside the sphere of BDSM.
Shanel Cooper has done two interesting video posts about submission in ordinary relationships and how it can empower women. I find these post very interesting as the ideas presented in them can be applied in relationships based on D/s. The only difference in D/s relationships is that there are no gender issues connected to being a submissive as both men and women can take on the role as a submissive part in the relationship.
Take a look at her videos.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for posting this. They are my opinions exactly, but expressed in a far better way than I ever could. I am so glad I am not fighting for this cause on my own!
Also, where can I find Shanel's blog? I would love to read/watch more of her stuff.
I’m not sure if she has a specific blog – The only thing I’ve found is her site http://stilettosinthekitchen.com/
You can also find her on Facebook.
She seems to be spread across all the different social medias that are available out there.
