I think I'm more dominant but only by a hair. She thinks of herself as submissive, but we have established over time that the term we should use for her is agreeable. I like her submissive in the bedroom (most days), but a good partner outside
Depends, I'm a born leader.. But so is he.. I like taking the lead but sincerely don't mind when he flips me on my back and puts his hand around my throat and then dominates my world
I think we are both! It depends on the issue or subject. however, if it is something for around the house/everyday stuff, I am more dominant. if it has to do with family/major decisions he is more dominant. and I'm ok with it all :)
Technically speaking, he is my Master and I am his pet. In a lot of ways, he is in control, but that control is something I give to him as an equal partner (I am submissive but not inferior). I think he's quite happy to fill that role. ;D Emotionally speaking... I think I have a bit of a dominant streak that sometimes comes out to play. ;3
Depends at terms and condition. We tend to treat each other equally.. I was a dominant person before i was with him and i realised that it wasn't really that great to be like that, it's not comfortable for our partner.. :) i tend to listen to him more tho. I think.. So i think i'm quiet submissive but not to the point where i am inferior.
I choose to be submissive I think the man should have control over certain things and vice versa
Submissive in bed, but I think I'm more dominant in other aspects of our relationship. I like being submissive and dominant in those respects. :)
Yeah you are submissive in bed

I'm both... In relationship and in bed... All depends te situation and my mood
I think of myself as more submissive, although it might seem the other way sometimes. I don't mind submitting to his will, just so long as it's my choice and I am treated well.
I am pretty sure we are very close to a tie, but I think I am a bit more dominant. I try to be more submissive, but I am usually the one with the ideas, actions, and plans. I try to give my man more control, but it's hard. however, I do wish he was a little more dominant in our relationship, in a non jerk kind of way.
It varies; I let her 'drive' most of the time, but will pick a few key opinions to hold and insist upon. Lesson: opinions are expensive.
Dominant, feels like always cause I always am
We are equal.
My wife and I do a great job of sharing the responsibility so we both lambs and tigers. I think it is quite effective.
I think we are both equal which is good because if a guy is dominant then it's a bad relationship and it's no different if the girl is more dominant
