So are YOU the kind that prefers a women that is more dominant in the relationship?

It's a matter of personal choices and attitudes, when you want to keep harmony in a relationship sometimes you ought to give up some space or a few of your choices in behalf of mutual understanding, ie:if she doesn't like one of my friends I won't dump my friend but for sure I'll never bring him home or have him join us for a dinner out. Some of these "negotiations" could be seen by some people as controlling.

That's why I asked, where you draw the line. This is a good example.
There are definitely different levels of control. Some want to be dominated by their mate.
I was just curious as to the opinions of the men and women here.

I concur, the owner of the business I work for is a prime example of a controlling person. I was looking more towards relationships between a man and woman though.
BUT, I so agree with you.

(jk I'm not active) Nah, I'd hate that relationship. Plus from the relationships I've seen control never works it worsens the relationship.

That's a very intriguing question.
Most would not think of a partner who said, "Dear, will you take the trash out?" as being "controlling." More would call "controlling" a partner who said "I don't like it when you talk to your ex on the phone." Yet in the first case, the partner is explicitly trying to control your behavior, and in the second, merely expressing displeasure.
So where, or how, would I draw the line? If her demands, or requests, made me feel frustrated and torn, that's where. Not seeing my friends was one of the problems with my first ex-wife. The friends won.

I have zero tolerance for controlling people, no matter who they are. My first response is "please don't do that", the next is "don't do that", and the last is, "there's the door".
You get controlling people in work situations, too- usually people who need to be taught a lesson that such behaviour isn't acceptable.
Example- as a musician, you get people who think that because they've hired you, they can talk to you any way they like, and tell you to do whatever they want. The "clap their hands and expect people to obey", or the constant "yelling into your face" thing. The latter are unbelievable. If I worked a regular job where someone tried that, I'd videotape the s.o.b. and head straight over to Labour Relations.
In those situations when I'm playing a gig, I just smile blandly, direct the guys to pack up their gear, and we leave.
Kind of how my marriage ended . . .
