I'll also observe the opposite problem: being perceived as overly submissive may be a turnoff for some women, too.

"Some" is an important word here. Some women like their boyfriends to come pre-domesticated, especially for long-term-relationship purposes. If one can pull off "domesticated" without it turning into "spineless loser", that can be made to work.
