But isn't it possible the roles can merge after a while so that there is no longer a distinction between bedroom role play and their roles outside of the bedroom? Like if one partner is used to playing the part of the dominant one, can this not confuse them so that they become unpleasantly dominant in real life?

Maybe you should think more about your desires and whether or not you and your partner want to express it more even outside the bedroom and in everyday life. If you think about it the ideologies that women and men should be either equal or unequal in a relationship is just that: ideologies. It is not dynamics that have been proven to be superior to each other. Having unequal roles in the bedroom or in a relationship doesn't mean that one role is better than the other, just being in an administrative position in a company isn't better than being an engineer, for example. They both need each other.

Just because equal relationships is the PC thing right now doesn't mean that it is the best solution for everybody.
