We each have a certain amount of masculinity and a certain amount of femininity in us. We need both, but one should always be dominant.
The most rewarding relationships are ones where the two partners balance each other out.
It used to be people were about 80/20. Nowadays however, it seems society has forced us into a more 60/40 split. Which leads to a lot of confusion (and in many cases a feeling of unhappiness). I can’t even begin to imagine how hard it must be for a 50/50.
The challenge is most people don’t know their own ratio and aren’t able to look for mates that complement them. They only look at the surface.
I myself am about 90/10. Trying to find a partner at that ratio is really hard. I’ve learned to calibrate myself to others, but it feels like I’m constantly swimming upstream. It’s exhausting.
The subs have brought me more in touch with my feminine side. They didn’t change my ratio, they made the current less strong, so it’s easier to swim upstream. It also helped me become more spiritual.
But to go on-topic, it would not surprise me if the subs are written to address the masculine and feminine parts of us individually without affecting our gender identity.
