What perceptions of what behaviors led to the allegations? 5. Have many people had the same perceptions? 6. Is there an OVERALL PATTERN in the behavior of the alleged dominator(s) --- which supports the suggestion that there is in fact therein support of "The Domination System"; which is: overt, tacit, passive, active and/or covert? 7. Are there aspects of the alleged dominant people's behaviors which are inconsistent in a major way with the allegation that they are supporting (overtly, tacitly, passively, actively, or covertly) "The Domination System". 8. What indications are there of an OVERALL PATTERN of actions and relationships which is as a PATTERN indicative of tendencies towards domination --- versus tendencies towards personal and communal integrity within truly loving relationships? 9.
