"Is submission to the husband a cultural imperative for your species? I do not believe there are many other of your kind here. Unless you choose one of them, you can safely discard that notion. Or is it a physiological imperative instead?"  She thought about this before answering, the information she does have on this topic is all second hand, and a male of her species would have more knowledge on the subject, but she would tell him of what she knew.<br/><br/>"It is a common belief outside our culture that it is strictly confined to our society, and that in general we could overcome such tendencies.  But from what I gather, it goes beyond just cultural laws.  It is a physiological imperative that draws us into choosing naturally dominant males.  I have...heard of instances when a female was paired with a relatively submissive male, and the woman in question would refuse to mate with him, the idea of breeding with him became abhorrent.  I even heard that she went as far as laying with another man to breed proper off spring."  She paused at this point, not only because she had no more knowledge on the subject, but because they had made it to their destination.<br/><br/>"Ladies first"<br/><br/>She inclined her head in thanks, and when the door slid open, she entered the office.
