Yes there may some submissives that are, or feel insecure but i for one am happy with my life. i have yet to meet a dominant lady in these circles but have never had any problems being controlled in the wide world outside here. Just the opposite in fact. i have found them to be more descisive in their actions more often than not and this is what i find exciting and in a way comforting in that although i have a part to play someone else caries the can. even submissive men like me have to make leadership descissions in everyda life and find it a nice change to reverse roles so to speak. So i would say the person who wrote the article may want to have a deep look at his/herself to see what makes them tick, i might have it as a guess they are insecure and paint a picture through personal experience rather than what is outside their life.
