But this site is aimed at individuals who actively want a so-called ‘unequal’ relationship (in a sense, there is nothing unequal about it, in that it is totally consensual and the wholehearted wish of the alleged underdog). And for those individuals, giving up control can be both healthy and delightful.
Yes, there are risks. Yes, you have to be very careful to choose a man who is good, kind, and nice, not a self-serving narcissist abuser. Yes, you and your spouse are bound to make mistakes, some of which may be harmful to you and/or to your relationship. But for those drawn to the idea of a Taken In Hand relationship, there is not always another option. And I'd be willing to bet that if you took a bunch of Taken In Hand folk and gave them therapy to help them learn how to have the ‘equal’ relationship alleged to be the best kind of relationship, if they actually managed to cut out the power/control/discipline dynamics and each do 50% of the household chores and so on, most of them would be less happy than they are in their Taken In Hand relationship.
