Clothespin Torment

Of all the ways to remove clothespins from sensitive parts of the body, having them gently tugged off by a mistresses mouth has got to rank among the sexiest. There are definitely nastier alternatives. I can personally attest that having them kicked off is an attention grabber. Particularly when that last stubborn one really doesn’t want to come free…

Clothespin TormentI think I found this via tumblr, but it’s obviously originally from the always excellent men in pain.

Contrasts

Often I find the best images are the ones that use fetish elements sparingly. Like a lot of things in life, it’s the relative change rather than the absolute value that’s important. This image for example has a beautifully composed lady, wearing a light summer dress, sitting in what looks like a normal room, while sporting a giant veiny black strap-on. That’s so much more erotic in my mind that more usual leather, buckles and boots.

Strapon With SundressFound on piotrushka’s tumblr site.

Bruised Slave

This struck me as an unusual image. When body marks are shown in femdom artwork (or in any BDSM artwork for that matter), it’s usually the stereotypical cane or whip stripes. It’s rare to see actual bruising or more general signs of physical harm. The contrast in this case between the composed elegance of the mistress and the battered appearance of the slave is quite beautiful.

In terms of the backstory here I’ve no idea what the original artist intended. But with the careful pose and the photographic studio style backdrop, it comes across as a formal portrait session. Perhaps she’s preparing the shot for her annual Christmas card?

Formal mistress and bruised slaveI’ve no idea who the artist is. It looks like something from renderotica and has some similarity to xrenderer, but I don’t think it’s quite his style. It’s an amazing piece of work, so if you do know the artist then please drop me a line.

Happy Faces

After the oddness of this post, I thought some more straightforward artistic Japanese femdom might be in order.

I love this image for the expressions on their faces. She has a wonderful smug look, and is clearly enjoying every moment of his torment. In contrast he’s balanced between pleasure and pain, enjoying the momentary pleasure of her foot, but anticipating the worst…..

Grigbertz

This is an image taken from the Grigbertz fetish gallery. There’s a whole host of fun images there, and it’s well worth checking out, although there’s clearly a lot of context and subtext around the characters and scenarios that I’m just missing. But regardless of the who/what/why, this image really caught my eye as a very sexy femdom (plus mouse!) scene.

It’s titled ‘In the basement’ and is from this Grigbertz gallery.

Dewey Decimal Domination

I’m constantly amazed by the quantity and quality of the erotic artwork that comes out of Japan. Browsing any of the archive or chan sites will show a multitude of talented artists producing some really imaginative work. And sometimes it’ll be so imaginative, I’m left wondering exactly where the inspiration came from….

This image is taken from a collection of drawings entitled Bizarre Nightmare, by ‘Annmo Night’. It’s a beautifully drawn series, with lots of buxom women doing wonderfully sadistic things to weaker men. Most of the drawings are based on fairly conventional femdom themes, with added daliesque twists to represent the nightmare element. But this one is particularly puzzling. Who fantasizes about being attacked by books in a library? And what exactly is the role of the woman here? Is she controlling the books? Or are the books trained to attack men? Or are they all just swirling in a vortex beneath her? I can’t say that I find it erotic at all, but it’s certainly striking.

(Amusing side note on the title to this post. Having come up with what I thought was a fairly unique phrase, I googled it just to see how rare it really was. Not only has it been used before, it’s actually the title of a blog. The blog of a librarian and dominatrix no less, which sounds like my idea of heaven. Sadly it looks like it’s now dead after a very short life).

Exchanging bodily fluids

The exchange of bodily fluids is one of the key parts of most pornography. But where in US and Europe it’s normally confined to the standard ‘money-shot’, the Japanese tend to get a lot more creative. In the femdom realm anything goes, from spit drinking, through the more graphic toilet functions (for example this kind of thing from the yapoo market series), all the way to the infamous school girl vomit videos (citation and reference definitely not needed).

Of course you can also find those kind of things in the Western market as well if you look hard enough, but it seems far more niche. With respect to Japan, I’m not sure if it’s a specific cultural hot button that gets fetishized, or the result of a generally more creative approach to porn, or just another unintended side effect of their curious censorship laws. But whatever the reason for it, I’m a fan when it results in photographs like this one.
