/ Parenting / By Kathy Urbanski
In the past, men always took the lead in almost all aspects of life, including work, home life, and social relationships. Society has cemented this mindset, but times have changed. Women are stepping up, and many are doing an excellent job at the forefront — including taking a dominant role in relationships.
However, some men are not yet ready to accept the idea of a relationship where the female takes the lead. Some feel their egos will get crushed; conversely, other men openly accept the leadership of the women.
In this Preggy to Mommy article, we’ll take apart gender norms and define a a relationship that defies social conventions and the important rules that can make an FLR work.
What Is A Female Led Relationship (FLR)?
An FLR refers to relationships where women are the authority figure. Definitely a departure from the usual power dynamics in a heterosexual relationship! Here, the woman is the dominant partner, and they lead in terms of making major decisions. The man, on the other hand, is the submissive partner. That makes it the opposite of a traditional male led relationship.
Each relationship differs from another. On one hand, you may see a pairing with defined gender roles. In some households, the woman goes to work every day as the breadwinner of the family and makes all the financial decisions. The man takes on the cooking, cleaning, errands, and childcare. On the other hand, you might find partners that eschew gender roles.
The essence of an FLR is a different set of rules, not the roles themselves. It’s worth noting that communication is necessary for any relationship. It’s always best to communicate roles with your partner so you could grow and thrive together.
Types Of Female Led Relationships
The different types of FLR depend on the woman’s personality and assertiveness. We can break down these variations into four different types.
Type 1 FLR: Low-Level Female Control Relationship
In this type, the woman still has low authority, and both partners are involved in decision-making. However, it still grants the woman reprieve from traditional gender roles, as it lets her exercise authority in some instances.
The main point of this category is that the couple decides together most of the time. Authority gets passed between partners depending on the situation, and both partners might share the same job when it comes to some responsibilities.
Type 2 FLR: Moderate Female Control Relationship
In this type, the woman takes charge of most matters in the household and allows the woman to delegate tasks to her partner.
The woman doesn’t let her pride lead the way. Instead, she exercises her control to ensure the best results. Being a woman in an FLR, no matter the type of relationship, means having to assume responsibility alongside authority.
Since this type of relationship only assumes moderate control, the woman is open to suggestions from her partner. However, those instances are limited to matters that don’t overstep her role.
Having moderate control means relinquishing some control to the man. There are instances where they assume responsibility for that control, but the man may ask the woman to lead more.
It’s up to the woman to see for herself if she deems herself fit for the added responsibility. And, depending on how serious or major those additional tasks are, their FLR level may move up or stay the same.
Type 3 FLR: Defined Control Relationship
In this relationship type, the woman has taken over the traditional male roles in the relationship while the man takes on stereotypical female tasks, such as cleaning, cooking, and taking care of children.
Being in a Type 3 female led relationship can also entail kinkier sex. Women under this FLR type enjoy having a significant level of authority over their partners — including their roles in sex as well. Many of these women take advantage of this power dynamic by kicking bedroom activities up a notch. And me: you may enjoy the more extreme things your partner has in store for you!
Outside the bedroom, the woman also exerts control over other matters like finances, chore distribution, work aspects, and relationship concerns. The woman’s control is clear, hence the term “defined control”. Her areas of authority are defined and laid out to avoid any kind of confusion or overstepping.
Type 4 FLR: Extreme Control Relationship
Type 4 affords the woman the highest level of authority over her partner. It’s also the most non-traditional relationship out of all the four mentioned. The power structure here means the woman is the dominant force in the relationship; woman controls man. It’s not just a power play — unlike the previous relationships, her authority is absolute.
That extreme control extends to every aspect of the relationship, from the major aspects down to the smallest things, like what time he should eat or what he wears for work. It’s not for everyone, and it’s similar to traditional male led relationships from older times when women had no say.
If both partners don’t enjoy and agree to this kind of FLR, it may lead to power struggles or even separation. Excessive control can make one partner feel undervalued or worthless, similar to what many women experience in traditional relationships. For this type of relationship to work, the man should enjoy submission.
Rules And Components Of Female-Led Relationships
We, as a society, are slowly moving forward while shedding the notion that women should be confined to traditional roles — evidenced by the increasing number of female-led relationships in modern times.
By observation, men prefer living with women who exhibit Type 1 and Type 2 relationships. Sometimes, they go for Type 3 as well, but rarely Type 4. But then, very few people, male or female, enjoy total submission.
These relationships aren’t new but can be unfamiliar to many because of our deep-rooted notion of traditional relationships. Confusion is only natural; the FLR concept isn’t well-known yet. If you’re in a female led relationship or want to be in one, here are some rules:
Financial Management
In a female-led relationship (FLR), financial management often involves the female partner taking a proactive role in budgeting, investing, and daily finances. The key to successful financial management in an FLR is open communication to ensure that decisions respect both partners’ inputs. However, the woman still has the final say.
Effective financial management in an FLR also requires setting responsibilities tailored to each partner’s abilities. The woman may oversee the overall financial strategy, such as retirement planning and investment portfolios, while her partner could handle day-to-day expenses or specific tasks like managing bills or tracking expenses. Division of labor can streamline financial processes, ensuring that all financial activities support the couple’s long-term objectives.
Some couples may decide to look for outside help. Financial advisors and expert advice are generally an excellent way to keep the couple’s finances are in order. As with everything else in a healthy relationship, the female partner takes the lead when negotiating with an expert!
Financial Independence
Financial independence for each partner ensures that power dynamics remain equitable, preventing dependency and resentment. Simultaneously, shared responsibilities in managing finances, such as budgeting and savings decisions, foster a cooperative environment. This collaborative approach not only reinforces trust and teamwork but also aligns the couple’s financial goals and strategies, which is essential for a stable and healthy FLR.
Household Management
Household management may involved the woman organizing tasks based on each family member’s capabilities and schedules. She might create schedules for chores, meals, and family activities, ensuring that the household runs smoothly and efficiently.
Additionally, the female partner might implement systems and routines that support educational and personal growth activities for all family members. By managing these aspects, she promotes a balanced lifestyle that nurtures the family’s development and well-being, while also setting the standards for the household.
However, this isn’t necessarily true for all couples. More career-oriented woman may pass household management to their male partner, allowing them to focus on their jobs.
No Sex On Demand
Sexual dynamics in FLRs are different from stereotypical heterosexual relationships. Women in control disagree with sex on demand. It’s been a long-standing issue with traditional relationships that women should always be available for sex when their partners desire it. FLRs break these views.
Autonomy has been an issue for women for centuries, so expect that to come into play. Honoring a woman’s “no” is part of respecting her as a partner and as a person. As the authority figure in the relationship, saying yes to sex without being forced is part of her exercising control over the relationship and her body.
Toilet Seats Should Always Be Down
The toilet seat dilemma is one of the most consistent debates between men and women. However, putting the toilet seat down is important when you’re in an FLR, and especially in a female led marriage.
In the first place, leaving the toilet seat down is more hygienic. Why? Because everyone should flush with both the seat and the lid down to prevent the spread of bacteria due to flushing. Men should leave the seat down and only raise it when necessary.
Let Her Have The Last Say
The man is welcome to speak his mind in Type 1, 2, and 3 relationships. Women who are effective leaders know that it’s important to hear their partner’s side when making decisions. However, female led relationships entail men not overpowering women when it comes to the final decision-making.
A man in a female led relationship should trust their partner. That includes respecting her decisions and being confident of her ability to lead.
She Should Come First in the Female-Led Relationship
A woman in a female led relationship must be prioritized. That’s not to say a man’s world should only revolve around her. Instead, it means making plans with her in mind. It includes not acting like a single man without a life partner.
In female led relationships, men should deliver their promises, do their tasks, and follow through with agreed-upon plans. There is no part-time submission. The man and woman have to give their 100% in all they do to make sure that everything stays on track.
Be Ready For Punishments (And Rewards!)
A female led relationship can be seen as an action-consequence type of partnership. That means each good deed merits rewarding, while each bad act warrants a punishment. Being in an FLR requires commitment and respect from both parties, so it’s only fair to face appropriate consequences per action.
Needless to say, these punishments don’t involve being hurt. Harming a partner is never acceptable. Instead, expect a punishment that befits the misdeed. For example, if the man fails to honor a major commitment, expect the woman to be upset. It would harm the relationship if both partners slept in the same bed while she is upset. Sometimes it’s healthier for the man to give a woman space, including in the evenings.
Likewise, when the man honors the relationship, his partner will most likely reward him. That reward could be material, like a new watch or gadget, or something else he desires.
Trust Her Completely
Most of the decision-making will be done by the woman. With this in mind, men should remember to trust their partners completely. They’re welcome to ask questions and give opinions, but they should do so respectfully and mindfully. Men should respect the relationship structure and trust that she has the best interests of their relationship at heart.
An even greater level of trust should be present in female led marriages. After all, the woman decides not just for her and her partner, but the kids as well. But don’t worry, because as the saying goes, mothers know best.
Do Not Hide Anything From The Female-Led Relationship
Wives know everything their husbands do. That’s a simple fact, especially for a female led relationship. Women often question men about their actions or companions. And sometimes, women do that even when they already know the answer.
This isn’t a helicopter relationship. Instead, it’s a way for the woman to know if the man is being honest.
Honesty is important in any relationship. But it weighs more in FLRs because of the history of women brushed off in relationships. Men should be nothing but honest and straightforward when talking to their partners — and that’s how it should be in relationships anyway.
Honesty also covers finances. If a man wants to buy something, respect the woman’s authority and be honest. Men shouldn’t keep women in the dark when it comes to money, especially in FLRs. By relaying purchases and transactions to her, the man is supporting her in keeping track of important household matters.
This then leads to another issue: Men should always tell their partner everything related to women. If he’s developing a friendship with another woman, he should tell his partner. That’s an important step in reassuring her that the man is loyal and committed to their relationship.
Trust is non-negotiable in FLRs. A relationship without trust will fail.
Study And Anticipate
One major peeve that a woman may have when the male counterpart takes the lead role is the lack of partnership. The traditional male role involves working and providing for the family. However, with the power given to men before, they often fail to fulfill the intellectual aspect of their authority. They work, but they let women handle the expenses and household affairs. When men get home and only help when asked, they’re not even acting as assistants.
A woman takes full charge of everything, and she expects the man to keep up with her. She takes everything into consideration and plans accordingly. In addition, she expects her partner to uphold his fair share of the intellectual load. He should remember what she says to show her that he respects her.
The man can’t just be a blank canvas that needs to be filled in every time there’s a task of him. Instead, he should proactively do what needs to be done at home and in the relationship.
The man should listen to the woman’s instructions and be proactive. That shows that he pays attention to her and he’s willing to go the extra mile to make her happy and comfortable. Studying and anticipating is tedious and demanding, but it’s worth it because it sharpens the man’s skills and elevates the relationship.
Navigating Female-Led Relationship Rules
It’s not all about complete control. The label focuses on how women take charge in the partnership, but it’s more than that. An FLR is a different kind of love.
It’s important to understand that women have long been suppressed in relationships. FLRs give them the freedom to express their love freely and realize their full potential in a partnership.
FLRs can be difficult to navigate, but that’s what these rules are for. However, it’s important to note that they’re not strict standards. Instead, they’re tips to guide men and women who choose to break free from gender roles. FLRs are also for those who realize that typical relationships aren’t for them.
Handling the Social Dynamics of an FLR
Navigating public interactions and social settings requires a thoughtful approach to communication and mutual respect. It’s important for both partners to discuss and agree on how they will present their relationship dynamics in public. This includes deciding whether to disclose the nature of their relationship structure to friends, family, or acquaintances, and how to handle questions or comments that may arise. Establishing a united front and supporting each other’s roles in all settings can help build confidence in the relationship.
In social settings, it can be beneficial to set boundaries about what aspects of the relationship are open for discussion. Partners should ensure they are on the same page about how much they are comfortable sharing to avoid discomfort or misinterpretations. A calm and assertive clarification can help guide the conversation away from intrusive or judgmental remarks. Over time, consistent and respectful responses can educate those around them and possibly influence broader social perceptions.
Lastly, it’s crucial to be adaptable and supportive of each other, recognizing that different social environments might elicit different reactions. Partners in an FLR should remain attuned to each other’s comfort levels and step in to redirect or support as necessary. This kind of teamwork not only strengthens the relationship but also solidifies the partners’ roles in ways that are visible to others, fostering greater understanding and acceptance of their dynamic.
Getting Closer — Emotional and Physical Intimacy
Emotional and physical intimacy in an FLR involves open communication and clear understanding of each partner’s needs and desires. Both partners should frequently discuss their feelings, preferences, and boundaries. This ongoing dialogue ensures that both emotional and physical connections remain strong and satisfying. Recognizing and affirming each other’s emotional states fosters a deeper emotional intimacy, making it easier to maintain a fulfilling sexual relationship.
For the male partner in an FLR, there are specific actions that can enhance both emotional and physical intimacy:
-
Active Listening: Engage in active listening, showing genuine interest and responsiveness to the woman’s thoughts and feelings. This builds trust and emotional closeness, which are crucial for a deeper connection.
-
Express Appreciation: Express appreciation and admiration for her leadership and other qualities. This can strengthen the emotional bond and increase her confidence.
-
Initiate Comfort and Affection: Take the initiative to provide comfort and affection according to her preferences. This could include physical touch, like hugs and holding hands, which reinforce a physical connection without necessarily leading to sexual activity.
-
Support Her Decisions: Demonstrate support for her decisions in the relationship, including those related to emotional and physical intimacy. This shows respect for her leadership and contributes to a harmonious relationship dynamic.
There’s no shame either in seeking external when it comes to intimacy, especially with how an FLR shakes up traditional gender norms. We know, it can feel embarrassing to talk to someone else — but the experts are experts for a reason. Looking for a family therapist or a certified sex therapist can help both partners create a fulfilling relationship together, whether through better emotional intelligence or even spicing up the couple’s sex life!
Challenges And Benefits Of Female-Led Relationships
A progressive relationship type like an FLR comes with a unique set of challenges and benefits that can significantly affect relationship dynamics and personal growth. Understanding these aspects is crucial for partners considering or currently navigating this type of relationship structure.
Challenges of a Female-Led Relationship:
-
Resistance to Non-Traditional Roles: Partners may face societal pressure or personal discomfort with deviating from traditional gender roles, which can lead to internal or external conflict. This resistance can come from family or friends with traditional views.
-
Overburdening One Partner: If not balanced properly, the woman in the relationship may become overburdened with decision-making responsibilities. Regularly reassess the distribution of responsibilities to ensure that the relationship remains sustainable.
-
Communication Issues: Ensuring open and effective communication can be challenging, as it requires constant effort and adjustment to make sure both partners feel heard and valued. Misunderstandings can escalate if not addressed promptly.
Benefits of a Female-Led Relationship:
-
Enhanced Communication: These relationships often encourage better communication practices, thanks to clear discussions and understanding about role distribution and decision-making.
-
Increased Relationship Satisfaction: Many couples report higher relationship satisfaction due to clear expectations and defined roles, which reduces conflicts over decision-making.
-
Empowerment and Confidence: The leadership role can empower women, boosting their confidence and assertiveness both within and outside the relationship.
What A Female Led Relationship Means For A Woman
These relationships are mainly for women with dominant personalities. The woman acts as the head of a partnership or marriage, and she’s in charge of most major decisions. If she’s married or she has kids, she acts as the female authority for the entire family.
Most women in this kind of relationship lead and make decisions that would benefit them, their partner, and their kids, if any. In some cases, an FLR can also mean full authority. After all, in a Type 4 FLR, a man may give the woman all the power.
What It Means For A Man To Submit To A Female Partner
For male partners, being in an FLR means assuming a traditional female role. It also entails dedicating himself to his partner and shedding relationship ideals riddled with toxic masculinity.
The man takes on a submissive role and does things usually expected of women. A few examples include the man raising children, taking over household chores, running errands, and the like. However, it also runs deeper than that.A man being in an FLR means he’s ready to fight all sorts of expectations set for him by society. Men are expected to act tough and nonchalant. However, in an FLR, men should become more mindful and responsible. They can’t continue being responsible for only themselves. The moment they enter an FLR, they’re expected to fulfill their role and trust their partner.
Some men may feel pressured by the expectations of society. It’s only natural to become affected by what everyone has to say. However, relinquishing control doesn’t mean a man is any less of a man. It means he’s assured of himself and his relationship to the point that he’s not insecure about being in control.
How To Make A Female Led Relationship Work
Mutual respect is the number one reason why female led relationships work. Anyone who enters an FLR must be ready to trust their loved one and be trustworthy enough to be respected back. If you enter an FLR, you only have one partner and you should make them feel your love, respect, and adoration at all times.
Clear communication is important too. It’s necessary so partners can establish boundaries. It also cultivates mutual understanding and results in less power struggle. Although the woman has the final word on most decisions, it’s important for both men and women to take responsibility for their respective roles. It’s not enough for only one person to make a relationship work. Both parties should give their all if they’re in an FLR. Relationship responsibilities should also be taken more seriously when it comes to family life.
Clarity, Dialogue, and Boundaries
Clarity and open dialogue are foundational elements that ensure the relationship thrives. Clear communication helps both partners understand and respect each other. This transparency is crucial in preventing misunderstandings and conflicts, especially given the unconventional power dynamics in FLRs. Open dialogue enables ongoing negotiation of roles and responsibilities, adapting to each partner’s evolving needs and circumstances. It also allows both partners to establish healthy boundaries within the relationship:
-
Initiate Conversation: Begin by openly discussing the idea of boundaries. Set aside a dedicated time to express thoughts on what boundaries they believe are necessary and why they are important.
-
Define Boundaries: Clearly articulate and agree on what each boundary entails. Whether it’s about personal space, financial decisions, or how to handle external relationships, defining these limits clearly is crucial.
-
Document Agreements: Writing down agreed-upon boundaries can help solidify them and provides a clear reference for future discussions. This can be as formal or informal as suits the relationship, but it should be accessible to both partners.
-
Regular Reviews: Set regular intervals to review the boundaries. This allows both partners to discuss what is working and what might need adjustment. Life changes, and so might the needs and comfort levels of each partner.
-
Enforce Consistently: Consistency in enforcing boundaries is key to maintaining respect and trust. If a boundary is crossed, address it promptly to discuss why it happened and how to prevent it in the future.
Perspectives on Female-Led Relationships
The reactions to an FLR vary widely depending on geographic, cultural, and social contexts. In many traditional societies, FLRs may be viewed with skepticism or disapproval because they challenge long-established gender norms about male dominance. However, as gender roles become more fluid, there is growing acceptance in many parts of the world.
More progressive or liberal societies might see FLRs as a positive evolution toward gender equality, where the focus shifts from prescribed roles to suitability and personal preference. These societies tend to celebrate breaking gender stereotypes and support the empowerment of women within their personal and professional lives. Media representations in these contexts might portray FLRs positively, highlighting the dynamics of partnership and mutual respect rather than dominance and submission.
Despite these advancements, couples in female-led relationships can sometimes encounter subtle challenges. Couples may find that friends, family, or colleagues make unwelcome and inaccurate assumptions about their personal dynamics. Over time, as societal perspectives continue to shift towards greater acceptance of varied relationship models, these challenges may lessen. The future may hold a more inclusive understanding of partnership and leadership within a relationship.
Why Do Women And Men Seek Female-Led Relationships?
A relationship in which the woman makes most of the major decisions creates a unique relationship dynamic that many people might find more appealing or suitable to their personalities or identities. Female dominance can empower women by giving them more control, which both partners can find satisfying.
-
Increased Relationship Satisfaction: Both men and women might find greater happiness in a relationship that reduces conflicts over responsibilities and decisions.
-
Empowerment of Women: Women may prefer an FLR as it allows them to assert control and influence over their personal and family lives.
-
Balance in Skill Sets: Men and women might recognize that the woman has stronger organizational, financial, or interpersonal skills, making her the logical choice to lead in certain aspects of the relationship.
-
Enhanced Communication: Such relationships often require and foster open communication, as clear discussions about expectations and roles are necessary for the dynamic to work effectively.
-
Reduction of Decision Fatigue for Men: Men might appreciate feeling less pressured to constantly make decisions, allowing them to focus on other aspects of their lives.
-
Shared Responsibility and Partnership: Even though the relationship is female-led, the model often encourages a sense of equal partnership where the couple respects and supports the other’s contributions.
-
Adventure and Experimentation: Some couples are drawn to this relationship type for the novelty and adventure of going against traditional ideas, or even trying out sexual fantasies.
The Role Of Female-Led Relationships In The Kink Community
In the kink community, a female-led relationship (FLR) is not just a personal relationship dynamic but also a form of power play that aligns with many aspects of BDSM (Bondage, Discipline, Sadism, and Masochism). This kind of relationship often emphasizes the consensual exchange of power where the female partner shows extreme dominance over the male partner, extending from daily life decisions to the specifics of their intimate and sexual interactions.
For many in the kink community, power play can provide a structured framework through which they can explore their desires and fantasies in a safe, consensual manner. This might involve various BDSM activities where the dominant-submissive roles are clearly defined, enhancing the emotional and physical connections between partners.
Within the kink community, FLRs are often celebrated for their ability to invert traditional societal norms and explore deeper levels of trust and communication. These relationships require explicit discussions about limits, safewords, and consensual agreement on the activities involved, which exemplifies the high level of communication necessary in any BDSM relationship. An FLR is not merely about control but about finding balance and harmony in a relationship that openly acknowledges and embraces these dynamics. This open acknowledgment can lead to a greater understanding of self and other, as well as a more profound emotional intimacy between partners.
How A Female Led Relationship Breaks Traditional Gender Roles
To put it simply, an FLR is a non-traditional relationship. It’s a way for women to take the reins and introduce a fresh perspective when it comes to partnerships. It shuns traditional roles that were founded on patriarchy and the oppression of women so prevalent in the western world.
In typical relationships, women don’t have a say in important things like finances and sex. An FLR lets women be more proactive about those topics. As with any relationship, it’s important to communicate your boundaries and expectations with your partner.
FLRs also open the path for a more loving and compassionate union. When men lead, they do so thinking they can’t afford to show any sign of weakness or emotion to their family. But it’s different when it comes to an FLR. Such a relationship allows both men and women to show their emotions, strengths, and weaknesses openly. That way, they can make the best decisions for their partnership.
Final Thoughts On Female-Led Relationships
Female led relationships are way more than just letting a dominant woman lead in a partnership. It seeks to free women from oppressive traditional roles and it’s rooted in the fight for women’s rights. Women have been silenced for a long time. FLRs and their rules are a testament to the steadily rising success of gender equality.
In a woman led relationship, female empowerment is present. But unlike with a traditional relationship, a man being in an FLR doesn’t mean he doesn’t have a say anymore. What it means is he now has a chance to explore other roles that otherwise would have been impossible for him to assume. In a way, FLRs allow men to be soft without being judged. Likewise, FLRs also encourage women to take charge without being mocked.
If you’re in an FLR or you want to learn the FLR rules, more power to you! Don’t let society drive you away from exploring it just because it’s not yet considered a normal relationship. Do what makes you happy. After all, what matters is you have trust, communication, and respect in your partnership.
