Why would "submissive" persons (especially women) be more vulnerable to exploitation and abuse?

Question

Is this really a trick question, dya think???

Discuss.

Answer 1

Nah it's not a trick question.  The basis of the submissive is to please. Many say that they would fight against such things; however, I don't see how. The point of beng submissive is not to fight back; to always agree in order to avoid confrontation.

Edit: Don't you jump down my throat!!! I told you what I know and who in the h**l are you to cut me down for it?!?! Lady you are a number that's for sure!!! All right smar alec the only way one would be more vulnerable to abuse would be to get beat into submission.  Personally I know of a couple of women who have been beaten into submission.  Nowadays when their husbands, so as much as, look at them cross-eyed they literally shake in their shoes; and that is no joke.  While we're on the subject don't be shocked to hear that they fall in love with them during the process; I've seen that happen, too. Also, don't be shocked when confronting these men by telling them they treat their wives like c**p; and they come back with, "Yeah, your right.  We do treat them like c**p.  They know where the door is. We don't see them using it, so they must like it."  These men are completely indifferent. Most of them treat their wives like c**p; having no regard for them whatsoever. These women know that, so why do they stay?  I know of one where it was rumored he gave her the best s*x she ever had; plus he's loaded.  She'll even tell you he treats her like c**p; then in the same breath tell you that she loves him.  Yep just as I thought.  You don't know what you want.  I've just shown you the ways as to how they are and will be inclined to abuse and exploitation.  Sorry I didn't kiss you butt. The h**l I am! As for the exploitation as in making a profit off of them; sell them into prostitution.

Answer 2

I disagree with your remark "especially women," but that's another topic.  IMO, submissive people are more vulnerable because their dominant behaviour is to "please," therefore to be accepted thru this type of behaviour.  It is a learned behaviour therefore it can be unlearned.

Answer 3

Women need to get more spine. If somebody tried to beat me into submission, they'ed it didn't work. I'd get revenge on their arses, no matter how long it took, they'ed regret it.

Answer 4

Hmmm, good question. Do you mean *especially* vulnerable to exploitation and abuse, or *more* vulnerable or *as* vulnerable?

In any case, I'm thinking that someone who was submissive MAY be inclined, for various reasons, to accept unwelcome ill treatment and to find it difficult to protest against it in an effective way.
