In a galaxy far, far away…

Apologies in advance. This is a somewhat self-indulgent post that’s low on femdom content. I’m sure regular service will be resumed tomorrow.

It has been a Star Wars heavy weekend for me. I finally got around to watching the Force Awakens on Friday and on Sunday caught Rogue One. I enjoyed them both, but what really grabbed my attention was the strong female lead characters. Rey (played by Daisy Ridley) and Jyn (played by Felicity Jones) are both stand out performances. The Rebel and Empire forces are still sadly about 90% men, but for me it’s the female characters who are memorable.

The feisty and acid tongued Leia was a key part of the original trilogy. Star Wars nerds tend to salivate over her metal bikini scene, and I’ve never really understood that. You’ve got this kick-ass princess who can banter and shoot with the best of them, and you like the bit where she’s chained up to a giant slug? Anyway, after the disaster of the prequels, it seems they’ve got the franchise back on track. I can only hope there’s a lot more heroic ass kicking and a total absence of slave girl outfits in Rey’s future.

Underneath the Mistletoe

Overwatch is a big thing in gaming these days. It’s not really my big thing, as I’m not into shooters, but a recent Christmas promotion event did catch my eye thanks to one of the characters unconventional approach to kissing under the mistletoe. I’m not going to burn all my bandwidth hosting the the associated animated gif, but you can check it out in this article. Less kissing, more punching and sneering.

What I found particularly amusing was all the responses the article listed after the gif. A lot of fans (both men and women) seemed very happy about the idea of being beaten up by Widowmaker underneath the mistletoe. I already knew Overwatch had kinky players (see this previous post), but apparently there’s a lot more out there than I thought. Even if they don’t always seem to know it themselves.

A Cat Continuation

After featuring cats in yesterday’s post, it would be entirely out of character if I didn’t use that as an excuse to follow it up with a Catwoman themed post. In this case the great Julie Newmar.

There have been a number of interpretations of the character in movies over the years, and they’ve all had a number of things in common. They’ve featured talented actresses, in slinky constumes and who were all cursed with terrible scripts. The early shows and movies with Julie Newmar, Eartha Kitt and Lee Meriwether were fun but campy nonsense. Michelle Pfeiffer looked great in Batman Returns, but the movie itself was a big letdown after the first Tim Burton Batman. Similarly, Anne Hathaway was great in the role, but stuck in the terrible Dark Knight Rises. And the least said about the Halle Berry Catwoman film the better. It’s really amazing how Hollywood can squander so much talent and money, and yet still not give us a good Catwoman movie. Let’s hope I’m not writing a similar thing about Wonder Woman in 12 months time.

Kinky Kitty

What makes people submissive and/or masochistic has been long debated. Is it genetics, environment or some combination of the two? Now some Czech scientists have a new theory – cats.

As this article describes, kitty poop can contain a parasite called Toxoplasma gondii. If that makes it into the human body, its effect is to screw around with the fear and sex related circuits of the brain. That in turn can lead people to seek out more scary and sexually risky things. So one day you’re emptying the cat litter box, and the next you’re hanging upside down while a lady in a catsuit beats you with a rubber hose.

However, before you start blaming all the freaky stuff you’ve done in the last few years on Mr Snuggles, I should point out the original paper suggests that- “Toxoplasma probably only slightly increases the tendencies of infected subjects to be sexually aroused by BDSM stimuli”. So it’s only a very small part of a much bigger and more complex picture.

A post about cats seemed the perfect one to feature this lovely image. Scratching is such a sexy and intimate way to inflict pain. Kitten ears aren’t strictly needed, but a nice bonus.

I’m not sure where this image is from. There’s a watermark, but even magnified I can’t figure out what it says. As usual, please leave a comment if you can help me attribute it.

Bigger is better

Some days I struggle to think of a good post topic. On other days they pretty much write themselves. Today is one of the latter cases. It was pretty much impossible for me not to feature this story: Women prefer slightly larger penises.

The good news for all you small penis humiliation fetishists out there is that the desirable length is 6.3″ (16cm), while the national average is only 5.2″ (13cm). That means 97% of men have a dick smaller than the desirable size. So you might have thought she was just roleplaying when she said how small and unsatisfying you were, but actually she was just being honest with you. How hot is that!

For those not into being humiliated about their genitals, and not in the top 3%, take heart from the fact that the survey was about preferred rather than minim size. And that survey didn’t ask women to rank the importance of size against other male attributes. So look on the bright side. There are no doubt dozens of other equally important metrics for you to be measured as totally inadequate against. Don’t get too hung-up on this particular one, when you’re probably also failing against lots of others that are just as important.

It’s hard to know exactly what the lady below is thinking about the erection before her. Possibly – “I need to go find my tape measure before I can decide if this is hot or not”.

I think this is by the artist J. Wayne Higgins based on this tumblr post.

Dominatrix Drive

Most countries are actively anti sex work. If it’s not actually illegal then, at the very least, it’s denigrated and hidden away. Politicians typically work to make life harder for sex workers – when they’re not secretly visiting them of course.

I was therefore happy to see the German city of Hamburg taking quite an unusual step. They’re going recognize a famous local sex worker by naming a road after her. Domenica Niehoff initially started as a prostitute and then opened a studio as a dominatrix. At the same time she campaigned for legalization of sex work, as well as founding an organization to help young workers and drug addicts (from her wikipedia page). I’m not going to hold my breath for the US to do something similar, but it’s nice to see some parts of the world getting it right.

Judging by the background this was shot in England. Maybe Cynthia Payne Plaza? I believe this is from the CFNM TV site.

Priorities

A week or more back I put up a couple of posts on how to initially communicate with a dominant woman. Although strictly speaking I didn’t really do anything, other than posts some links to words from smarter people than myself. One post was on communication in a professional context and one was on initial communication in a lifestyle/regular context.

On the face of it the advice given in those two contexts is quite different. Much like an opening email to a doctor or a lawyer is very different to the opening email to a potential romantic partner. However, there was one commonality that struck me: In both cases kink and sex came a distant second. For a professional the first thing is figuring out are you a sane, reasonable person, with a sensible request, who isn’t going to waste the dommes time. For a lifestyle interaction, the first thing is much like regular dating. i.e. Will you add something positive to the domme’s life? What do you bring to the table? Are you interested in the her thoughts/opinions/feelings? Is their chemistry?

So I guess the lesson here is that if you want to get kinky with someone, start by deprioritizing kink. It’s a bit like wanting to have kids. That might be important to you, but if that’s the first and primary topic of conversation with any potential partner, most people are going to run the other way.

I’ve no idea what image best fits a post about not talking about kink. So here’s a somewhat random image I liked from the show The Americans.

Big Bang

Personally I’ve never been a fan of the sitcom ‘Big Bang Theory’. Despite the title it lacks sufficient geek humor for me. However, if you are a fan, and ever fancied the idea of Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco in fetish gear, then today is your lucky day. Thanks to a very short dream sequence scene you get to see them in what they call a sex dungeon. I’m actually impressed with the set design involved. In the short video clip it looks pretty well equipped, using furniture they must have borrowed from a real play space.

Losers are losers

I found this recent study on online social dynamics fascinating. Researchers looked at people playing an online videogame (Halo 3) and measured success against their behavior across the genders. It turned out the men were generally complimentary to other male players. Successful men were also complimentary to female players. However, unsuccessful men tended to be nasty and rude to female players. So they were losers in all sense of the word.

This researchers conclusion was that a change in existing social dynamics – in this case an influx of new female players into a previously male dominated area – was a bigger threat to those near the bottom than those near the top. The lower status players had more to lose and hence reacted in an angrier fashion to those they perceive as responsible. This is a conclusion that fits with a lot of my personal observations of life. In a work environment it’s always the confident and expert individuals who are most open to being challenged and debating alternatives. People who are less sure of themselves see each challenge as a direct threat and react accordingly. One could probably do a similar analysis about economics, social classes and the current politics of America.

In the wider world it’s hard to know what the answer to this problem is. Anger from losing out when it comes to economics or social influence can be understandable. But when it comes to online interaction, whether it’s gaming, discussion forums or social media, there’s no excuse for being a douche. If you can’t not be angry then walk away. And if you see someone behaving obnoxiously then call them on it.

Doing it right

Excuse me while I indulge in another celebrity post. This time it’s Kendall Jenner in an outfit that makes for a nice contrast to Megyn’s one in yesterday’s post.

The fashion pages horribly overuse the term dominatrix when it comes to outfits. If any female celebrity steps out in any random black dress or sightly racy boots they call it dominatrix inspired (for example). However, I have to give Kendall Jenner credit here, this is a pretty good domme get-up. She would not look out of place in a dungeon attaching nipple clamps to horny sweaty men.

Of course that’s not say that you need to dress in leather or latex to have kinky fun or top someone. But I do think if newspapers are going to push the cliche of the dominatrix and her outfits, they should at least reserve it for people who have made some effort in that direction.
