When the topic of submission is raised, some women always come up with the argument that a man should earn it. But the truth of the matter is that submission is not a badge of honor to be earned. It’s just a decision one makes before entering a relationship or while in one. In other words, submission is a choice you make as a woman. This shows why men are attracted to submissive partners. The reasons are as follows:
Peace of mind: Every man craves peace of mind and only a submissive partner can give a man that. Imagine coming home after a stressful day to meet a chaotic woman. Your blood pressure will rise. Your heart will skip a beat. Sometimes, you will be confused whether to return home or not. It’s typical for a man to desire peace of mind because a man has a lot of responsibilities on his shoulder. He requires calmness and mental clarity to focus and tackle them. A man will be attracted to a submissive woman because such woman comes with peace of mind as a bonus.
Trust: A submissive woman is trustworthy. She is someone a man can trust with his money and home. Men generally want to build family with someone they can trust. A woman that is submissive will trust his husband’s ability to make wise decisions and sound judgment. A submissive woman will also respect his husband’s decisions, even if they are not too convenient for her. Trust is an essential part of every relationship. A man tends to trust a submissive partner more than a dominant one.
Less Drama: Every family is a place of safety and love. It’s not a place of drama or chaos. Men are usually attracted to submissive partners because they have less drama compared to the ones that crave equality or domination in the relationship. The truth is that a lot of woman who are not submissive are just walking timed bomb, waiting to explode and wreck havocs on people around. Every man seeks a submissive partner so as not to fall victim to someone who has refused to heal from her trauma. A man would prefer a home filled with love and laughter to a home filled with noise and drama. The truth is that drama drains the energy of a man. It causes one the inability to think straight. It beclouds vision and clarity. A dramatic woman in a man’s life will make the man to lose focus in life.
Humility: Submission comes to a humble woman naturally. Men are attracted to submissive partners because those partners are down-to-earth. If you see a submissive woman, you’ve seen humility personified. Please note that humility is not timidity. It’s not even a show of weakness or a sheer act of cowardice. It’s the mindset that put other people first. A humble woman see things from the other person’s point of view. A humble woman is empathetic. She does not talk down on her husband at anytime, whether the husband is present or not. A humble woman tries to cover her husband’s shame or weakness. This is why men are usually attracted to submissive women because everyone has weakness. The wise thing is to find someone who can put up with you and cover up the areas you are lacking. A submissive woman through her humble attitude does this perfectly.
Cultural Belief: According to many cultures, especially those in Africa, a man is seen as the head of the family, and a woman is expected to be under the authority of a man. A man is attracted to a submissive partner because she fits into this picture of a woman under the authority of a man. No man wants a competitor as a partner. The belief that a man is the leader of the home is ingrained in some men’s psyche that they would do anything to defend it. In line with this belief, they will seek a submissive partner because that would uphold the existing belief system. Some traditional African men would want a submissive partner because of the patriarchal system. The patriarchal system believes that it is a man’s world and women are expected to submit to the authority and leadership of men.
To Boost His Ego: Due to the feeling of pride and sense of self-worth, a man would get attracted to a submissive woman because such type of woman would massage his ego. A man wants someone who will make him feel like a king. He wants to lead in the relationship and will like to have a faithful follower in the form of a partner. It must be noted here that every masculine man has an ego. Hence, their desire or attraction to a submissive woman. This act of submission tends to bloat the ego of the man. It supports the narrative that a woman is part of a man’s wealth. Little wonder that some people in different cultures practice polygamy because it supports the system of keeping many submissive women as it shows wealth and personal pride. Many people view women who are not submissive as being unfaithful to their husbands or partners. This particular assumption does more harm than good to the husband or partner as it will crush his ego and sense of worth.
Obedience: The fact that a lot of submissive women are obedient to their husbands’ words or advice makes them attractive to men. Who would not like someone who listens? A lot of marriages or relationships are in pieces because the woman refused to adhere to the instructions or the advice of the man.
Respect: Some men can do without love but the greatest need of every man is the need to be respected. To a man, respect is even synonymous with love. You can dislike him all you want, but don’t disrespect him for any reason and you guys will still be okay. Disrespect is where he draws the line and it is only a submissive woman who knows how to keep this boundary. A submissive woman is very respectful and that is what makes her attractive to men.
