Screen 4 of 27

Most of us don’t ponder the sexuality of the people close to us, like family, because we interact with these people in non-sexual ways. But the couples in your family do have sex lives, and if the women are as out-going and bossy as you say, and if they tend to marry submissive顺从 — willing to obey men, chances are these qualities are also expressed in the sexual realm. It just so happens that your family respects each other so much that they keep their sexuality hidden from each other, and that is how it should be.

I am sure there were a lot of invited male guests to your wedding that also got excited when they saw your husband on that leash牵引绳 — a lead clipped to a collar as you proclaimed your ownership of him. I bet most men envied him, even if they would never admit it. Sure you used humor, and humor is a great way to keep things light, but the meaning behind your family tradition is not lost. And that meaning is that the woman is going to be in charge of this marriage relationship.

Who knows? Maybe the next generation of women, your daughters, will further expand the family tradition. Just like you expanded the ball and chain tradition to a more humiliating collar项圈 — a band worn around the neck and leash牵引绳 — a lead clipped to a collar tradition, perhaps your daughters will expand the so-called humorous wedding ritual into something even more overtly FemDom女性支配 — female domination. Each generation of women may want to add to the family tradition. Best wishes!
