She doesn't want to be dominated by force but she wants to be dominated by her own choice. She wants to have a regard for the man such that she is pulled into his influence and control. And in this way she doesn't even realize he is dominating her. Certain men do bring this out of woman and it's ultimately what both men and women desire. You have many relationships where this doesn't occur but generally speaking neither the man or the woman is truly getting what they want but it works due to some sort of mutual benefit that makes it easier to stay together than separate but at a fundamental core emotional level there is something lacking to these relationships.

Just remember that dominance doesn't mean the other person is a slave with opinions and values that don't matter to you. It just means who ultimately has the authority. The more competent the woman overall, the more she'll "win" on things but when an incompetent woman is demanding she have 50/50 says in a relationship despite the man having superior decision making ability for example, that often leads to disaster and conflict.
