bratty sub

[Euryleia]

I've got a little issue with how acting feminine makes for a good submissive but that a digression for another post. It sounds like she's just testing you. If you let her get away with it, she will just continue questioning you and will never respect you as her Dominant.

You need to clearly communicate what you are seeking in a submissive generally and what you expect from her in particular. Let her know that things will happen on your timetable and at your whim and that her actions are not acceptable. Be specific about what you are talking about (for example, seeking clarification of a command is okay but questioning your orders is not). True disrespect of your authority should not be handled with a spanking (she might enjoy that) but by a withdrawal of your attention--put her in a corner with her nose against the wall and ignore her. It won't take too long for the message to sink in.

I must admit I do encourage minor, bratty behavior in my sub but, then again, we both like it when I take her to task. You need to find a level that works for you--a broken sub is no good to anyone and a little fighting spirit keeps things exciting.

Yep. Different levels of "free will" to be reeled in. As far as fighting spirit, I just prefer it in forms other than bratty... and I would certainly never put up with the disdain apparently being shown as described above.

I suspect, neither would you.

Digressions to posts are fun
As a guy I totally get why he wants her to act feminine. Acting feminine is doesnt have anything to do with being submissive. It is more to do with him being a guy and wants a girl to Dominate. Not sure why that should be strange even if you are gay but please enlighten me


To the OP. Hormonal issues or some other issue might play a part in her acting. Otoh you might need to put your foot down and be more firm. Not sure how you are doing things but since you are new to the "lifestyle" then you most likely have things to learn to get her "under control" so to speak.
Perhaps the greatest advice from me without knowing you more and your situation is to talk to her. Sit down and talk a good long open talk and learn what she wants and why she acts like she does.

Good Luck to ya
btw just like Oz. I wouldnt either put up with her acting like that.
