And how intensely misogynistic most of it is. It’s like an image of female power from a patriarchal society and so like what femdom is and looks like is pretty interesting in terms of what it can tell us about the patriarchy. I have a vicious headache right now, but like I feel like a lot of it is interesting in what it reveals about the patriarchy and ideas about power
Off the top of my aching head:
The obsession with strap ons is like dudes being obsessed with the idea that penetration = dominance
Cuckolding is about insecurity over masculinity and also “if a woman can dominate me I must somehow be inadequately male, but also I want to see her get fucked by a “proper” man, the she’s supposed to”
Sissification is again “if a woman can dominate me or I want to be dominated by a woman I must not really be a man”
There’s also this whole uncomfortable clothes = ULTRA DOMINANT on a woman, like corsetry and pointy fucking heels are dominant IDK? I mean like I love my corsets and never wear flats but like ???
Alternatively “role reversal” shit where a dude sub is in traditionally feminine attire and the lady dom is in traditionally masculine attire is all wound up with notions of masculine power
Fin-domme is just like fantasizing about the shitty stereotype about gold diggers and the idea that women can make men irrational/unable to control themselves with lust
Smoking fetish is like “yeah it’s so dominant when you do something that’s actively harming you”?
