30 Days of submission: Day 12

Do you include financial submission within the definition of your own submission and if yes, how does it manifest itself? If no, is there a particular reason why? Are you familiar with the concepts of financial submission? Do you have an opinion about financial submission in general?

No.  No.  Yes.  Not for me. 

I like to give gifts.  I have never been with a woman that would have asked this of me.  I could see myself giving up control of finances if that was a suitable/wise option in a long-term relationship (e.g. marriage), but I have not been in a relationship that would have worked in for a very long time.  

I guess I just don't like the idea that the "quality" of my submission is measured in dollars rather than in love, devotion, obedience, and trust.

  1. I find financial submission very distasteful for the same reasons you give. My friend Clarice would heartily disagree, of course.
