I think that's just a social norm. Men are still expected to ask the girl out, to be the ones who make the first move in general - they're thus expected to take the lead in the bedroom, too.

Plus I think most women probably do prefer slightly dominant men, at least in my experience. I'm comfortable being in the minority, you know? There are still tons of guys who like girls who take charge, so it's not like you end up woefully undersexed if you stray from the norm. But as a result it's going to be more common in media, because it's more common RL.

(It does bother the shit out of me when it's laced with hypocrisy, like calling a man who won't take the lead a loser, whereas they're not a loser if they don't feel comfortable leading - only men!)

No one here is going to believe that.

Idk why should they, it's just conjecture and anecdotal evidence on my part. It's not like I have hard evidence to back it up.

I think it might depend on what you mean? People assume that strong men are always dominant. I have a type that is the type of man that many would assume are dominant because they are take charge in their regular life, but actually are submissive in bed. I like imagining characters like Thor really like to give up control in the bedroom. So some might say I prefer dominant men, but I actually prefer bedroom only submissive men.
