In what ways did you manage to improve your marriage or relationship by being more submissive and more feminine? When did you begin to notice a change and how did you work on yourself? Do you talk about such things with your husband or do you try to be subtle about it, by just changing your behavior?

I know this sounds like an obvious question but it's reassuring for me to know this behavior pays off and makes sense, so examples from your own relationship are welcome :)

It's also nice to know I'm not alone when facing criticism for my lifestyle. I wanted to post this in AskWomen too but I know they will not take me seriously this time either. Thank you!
