I think both in DD and in Taken in Hand there is a view of women as childish and in need of correction. The women write a bunch of theory denying this is what it is about..but look at what the men say! In their minds it is ALL about correcting and controlling the naughty little childbride who now has no further right to object to their methods. You stayed up late? SMACK! You forgot to dust the knicknacks? SMACK! You bought something extra (probably with money YOU earned)? SMACK! Bad girl! Into the corner with you, panties down! (So he can drool at the view).
Doesn't work that way in your relationship? So you say! Check out the assumptions your SO is making about you, gal. If he's like a lot of the men on here, you have already been relegated to the second-class and minor child category.

Having little to say about it?
If your wife chooses to allow you to control her in this way, that's fine, but it is her choice. If she chose not to allow you to do these things to her, there would be nothing whatsoeve that you could do about it. To say that she has little to say about it is absurd. There is no legal or social reason for a woman in this day and age to allow a man any more control over her than she chooses, you and Noone are 'in charge' of your wives only because they allow you to be!

Because they WANT them to be
Louise, their wives married them partly because they (the men) were prepared to control them (the women). The idea that Stephen and Noone might want to force an unwilling woman into subjection when there are so many begging for it is insane!

Definitely doesn't work that way in my relationship. We're neither of us interested in viewing me as some sort of child. Nor do either of us view me as in need of correction. The control dynamics, on the other, are a major turn on for both of us. I am, so I'm told, a strong woman in my own right - and I'm attracted to men who are stronger than me. Fortunately, my husband is - but the difference is not great enough for me to be a complete push-over.
