Women and Submissiveness: What does that really mean?

I am often asked by men I meet do I have a problem with and do I know how to be submissive? My response is: Why do you ask? Now, I will admit I have a strong personality and I like what I like and I don't do anything that makes me uncomfortable. But others perceive that to mean I don't know what being submissive in a relationship entails. What does it mean to you? Do you know a woman who is so submissive that she can only do what the man in her life says to do and won't deviate from that without his permission? At what point can a domineering/submissive relationship border on being a parent to your mate? These plus other questions will be addressed. Are you ready?
