So what’s the position on women in the Amish?

In Fiji at the tribal meetings only the men are permitted to speak. Their wives sit next to them and they tell their men what they want to be said. The men decide whether or not they will say it, depending on whether they agree.

The tribe meetings have another rule. No man may speak if a women is singing. So if the man decides not to say what his woman wants, she starts to sing. All business stops. In support, other women join in the singing. You can see where this is going, can’t you?! So now who controls the meetings?

Sounds like the man who told me in a BDSM relationship, the submissive has the control….but she can’t say “no” to him.

I think BDSM is a cult too. More male dominant bullshit.
