Writing my last post about BDSM professionals and switching made me think of my first domme – Lady Lydia McLane. That’s not because she was a switch. As far as I know, she was a stone cold top in private life. However, as a professionally hot and kinky person, she did do a bunch of modelling work in all sorts of roles. For example, kink.com has some scenes she shot for House of Gord. I’m therefore periodically disconcerted to stumble across an image of her in a sub role. Given how I knew her, it’s always pretty odd to see.
I was disconcerted in an entirely different way when I spotted the .gif below of Lydia on tumblr. My first thought was – “Is that me?” It’s not, but given I got spanked and caned exactly that way on that couch multiple times, it did give me pause for a moment. This was filmed in the entrance room to her Seattle Dungeon. I have so many happy memories of sitting on that couch and doing either pre-scene discussion or decompressing after an amazing session. Now it has all gone – razed the ground and replaced by condos. Such is life.
While this isn’t me, there a bunch of my scenes with Lydia documented in the early days of this blog. For example, here, here and here.


I had a hunt around but couldn’t track down an attribution for this image. If you know the photographer or the people featured then let me know via a comment and I’ll update the post.

Not sure where this image is from, but seems like a fun way to read a book for all concerned.
I’m afraid I don’t have a source for this. Despite my curmudgeonly take, I do like it, so if you have a pointer to its source then let me know via a comment and I’ll update the post.
I’m not sure who the domme is, but I do like her energy. Playfulness is a much underrated virtue in kink.
If you can help me attribute this then please let me know via a comment.
