[Poll #85561]
Dear Heloise -
Date: 2002-12-20 11:39 am (UTC)I would probably prefer that I not have to take charge of things outside the bedroom (I like it when other people plan my social life for me), but I end up feeling the obligation to step up and take control of things (the same with my place of employment). In the bedroom, I like to be in charge, feel most comfortable in that situation, but at the same time want to be able to yield up control.
My point merely being - I have no idea how to answer your poll.
Signed,
Befuddled in Dulles

I know.

Date: 2002-12-20 12:41 pm (UTC)i'm a 50/50 split on this subject. I have no problem taking charge in both areas, but I also love it when the girl is also able to take charge. Especially in the bedroom.

Date: 2002-12-20 03:11 pm (UTC)And too late now, but it would have been cool to have an optional question for meyers-briggs type for people who knew it. (Of course, that's the same thing I said about my poll today, realizing just a second too late that I should have added another question...)

Date: 2002-12-20 03:17 pm (UTC)Oh, and another thing I would have added to your question: I would split "outside the bedroom" into two halves: Interpersonal, and Professional. Based on context, I know you meant interpersonal, but I still would answer those two differently.
