dominance and submission dynamics

Dominance and submission refer to social or relational roles where one individual asserts control or authority (dominance) and the other accepts or yields to that control (submission). These dynamics are common in various contexts, including animals, workplaces, and personal relationships, and can influence behavior and decision-making. Importantly, they are often consensual and based on mutual understanding, allowing for trust and stability. Recognizing these roles helps in understanding interactions, promoting respectful exchanges, and fostering healthy boundaries where appropriate.
