Nigel, I have to disagree with you and state that I believe you are over-simplifying rather stark biological realities. The instinct to socially rank ourselves is ingrained and develops throughout childhood. When we socially interact with others we (mostly) subconsciously seek to figure out if can we assert ourselves over this person, should I defer to this person or do I see us as peers? This behavior sets the foundation of what some of us choose to observe as D/s. It’s part of us – some of us are just lucky enough to see it for what it is.
Where I might agree with you is the notion of females not being dominant. In biological terms, this is true for most all mammals of which we are a part. Societal pressures have resulted in both males and females who outwardly portray dominant traits while not being dominant because a) that’s what society expects and b) law and social conformity make it possible.
