What's wrong with feminist and submission?

Why do feminist have a problem with submission. Honestly, submitting doesn't mean doormat. You still be an individual and be self empowered. You can be a CEO of a company and submit to the man you trust. As long as there's understanding a mutual respect in kind of submission a man and women discusses there shouldn't be a problem? Yet these so against the notion. So I want to know why.

    Feminists do not have a problem with submission.

    They have a problem with not having the choice to decide whether to be submissive or not.

    I think some feminists think that it would be anti-feminist to be submissive, because that's kind of the opposite of what feminism is all about. I think as long as there is mutual respect, and partners are open to communication, there is nothing wrong with being a self respecting feminist and enjoying being submissive. I see myself as a feminist, yet still enjoy being submissive. Inside the bedroom only though, because outside of the bedroom,

    I'm the boss. (;

    I'm pretty sure that's with the more wacky ones. Some people like to be submissive in all aspects of their life. Others like it in the bedroom. There really isn't a problem if both of the people want it.

    What are we talking about - the bedroom, or all aspects of life?

    The former obviously varies with the couple, and the latter is a perversion of a love relationship.

    Nothing. You can be a feminist and still be into D&S.
