A question

Personally I think (as Ozme does) that it's because dominants naturally tend to be more confident, and are less likely to admit that they too need guidance and training (perhaps more than subs, in reality).
Subs potentially chat more to blow off steam, perhaps. Not to say they get stressed as if they have a job, but because it can generate some intense personal feelings that otherwise can only be shared with their dom. And who doesn't like the occasional chat with like-minded people?

See, to me this is self-contradictory. I do not think that doms are nessecarily more confident, because if they were, they would dare to ask if they needed info. It is the responsible thing to do when to are you the one with the responsiblity - and we all need info.

And a lot of subs are confident. Contrary to what is said here often, I do not think subs are a class of fragile little flowers ;-)

And there are posts here and there that points towards this being a problem for a number of doms.

ehm - doms? ;-)

Actually I said we're expected to be more confident and therefore act to that expectation. A world of difference.
