Take your passion, and make it happen

Ah… the 1980s. What a feeling. Back when we worried about a Republican President of the USA being too hostile to the Russians. Many things have changed but some, like my tastes in music and femdom, have stayed frozen in time. Another affectionate tribute to that time when you got your porn from a magazine wrapped in a paper bag, when women were women and men – just like today – were worms. But worms with really dubious mustaches.

Letters to the Editrix

Most Superior Goddess-Lady Lucia

Although your magazine is truly wonderful, one of the best female domination publications around, [‘one of’?? G-L. L.] I believe the author of the article Madam Miranda’s School for Husbands, focused on the efforts of that good lady to assist couples experiencing relationship difficulties, may have painted an unduly harsh portrait of this institution.

I recently returned home after a three-week stay at Madam Miranda’s and I can assure you that I have nothing but good things to report about that fine lady and her extraordinarily dedicated team of assistants.  Her ‘school’ is just that: an educational establishment and I can honestly say that I learnt more about being a good husband in those three weeks than you could in a lifetime of reading self-help books and magazine articles. I also managed to lose 7 pounds in weight and improve my housework skills.

The school does, obviously, employ corporal punishment techniques but no more than is necessary to help a trainee learn, when he has been at fault, to help him learn. In my case, I was frequently at fault, so it was often necessary, but I can honestly say I will never forget the lessons I learnt thanks to this educational technique.

 In short, I am immensely thankful to Madame Miranda and her staff for their vigorous and effective tuition and to my beloved wife for sending me there. Difficulties in our relationship are a thing of the past; we have not quarrelled or even had more than the most ephemeral difference of opinion since my return from The School, nor will we ever while the memory of my stay there persists. Our relationship seems to me to be perfect, but as my wife says, it is always possible to do better, so perhaps one day I will be lucky enough to renew my acquaintance with Madame Miranda and once again benefit from her wisdom and guidance.

With the greatest respect

An appreciative husband

I have passed your letter to Madam Miranda, who says she remembers you and that you were not always so appreciative. Males often don’t know what is best for them and you are lucky (as I am sure you often admit) to have a wife with the vision to understand your potential. The good lady tells me that her school motto is Flagella facit homines obedientes. My secondary modern didn’t teach Latin, so I don’t know exactly what that means, but it sounds like the right approach. G-L. L.

Divine Goddess-Lady

As a boot fetishist, I was wondering whether you have a preferred technique when having your boots licked clean? I find it hard to achieve a properly clean upper, especially, without recourse to a cloth.

Yours in worship

Bootlover

My technique is simple: I tap my crop on the boot, command it to be licked clean and beat the living crap out of the slave if he fails to do it to my complete satisfaction. It seems to work. G-L. L.

Exalted Goddess-Lady Lucia

I was wondering, what do you feed the office slaves who work on your wonderful magazine? I find the idea of being made to eat a disgusting meal, suitable for a lowly worm of my status wildly exciting. I fantasise about visiting two dominant ladies and being ‘treated’ to a three course meal. This begins with a steaming bowl of stinky sock soup, made by peeling those garments from my hosts’ feet at the end of a long working day and boiling them up in a pan, then squeezing carefully to ensure all the sweaty goodness is transferred to the soup. The main course is simply a healthy salad of raw vegetables: carrot rind, potato peelings, onion skins and cabbage, all as fresh and uncooked as the day they came out of the earth they grew in, much of which still clings to their sides. I of course gobble up every mouthful, naked and kneeling in front of the bowl in which it is all deposited, riding crops merrily cracking down should I hesitate. For pudding, a simple elegant used tampon, which is popped in my mouth all in one go but must be slowly chewed to open up the layered tissue to enable it to be swallowed piece by piece. Sometimes the ladies add a cheese course, having set aside some stilton or camembert in a warm spot some weeks before. No crackers being available, I lick the pungent stuff off the soles of their shoes.

I find the idea of eating dog or cat food exciting too, Goddess-Lady, but so nauseating that I think I might be sick. Is that your experience? I have also heard it may be unhealthy for human consumption.

In rapturous servility

Dustbin

You are quite revolting but also right, dustbin: dog or cat food can easily induce vomiting, especially in those not used to it. I don’t see any problem with that, as long as any such vomiting is done outside and the mess rapidly cleaned up – as in my household, it always is, of course. I too have heard that pet food is not fit for human consumption, which is why I feed it only to slaves.  None have died yet and in any case, I am confident that any health dangers to them of eating the nasty stuff would be far outweighed by the health dangers of refusing my order to do so. G-L. L.

Dear Goddess-Lady Lucia

I am a wife relatively new to the activities your magazine covers, but I wanted to write to let you know how much it has helped me since discovering my husband’s ‘stash’ of magazines and books. The majority of the publications merely featured images of young women in wildly uncomfortable clothing, often engaged in sex acts such as fellatio in which I have no interest. However, the stories and articles in Empress were far more informative and explained much that had puzzled me about my husband’s behaviour.

He was mortified when I confronted him, but calmed down when I explained that I was prepared to try out some – but by no means all – of the activities depicted. Not – needless to say – the fellatio featured in some of the other magazines, nor the bizarre rubber or leather outfits in which the young ladies in those magazines often unconvincingly posed. However, several of the stories in Empress featured looks such as a white blouse combined with a medium-length leather skirt, stockings and high-heeled (but not absurdly so) shoes or boots. I had already purchased a few such outfits when we had our ‘little talk’, so soon reappeared in front of him ‘dressed the part’ and I can say it went down extremely well! We had a thoroughly satisfactory evening of sexual intercourse, including some spanking, and I can honestly say he has never performed as well! The next night, I tried him on oral sex – which I had previously not felt I could ask for, since I was not prepared to carry out the same service – with even better results.

A week or so later, I visited a shop in Soho that advertised in your magazine and bought a cane, a tawse and some leather restraints, I was tempted by some chastity devices but thought it best to take one step at a time and in any event, some seemed unsuitable for long-term wear. It was when I first tried caning him that I encountered a problem: as he sprang up after only the first stroke, tearfully pleading that it was too painful.

Your wonderful magazine came to the rescue! I recalled Mrs Simmons’ approach in A Domesticated Husband and calmly informed him that the cane would be put away and not appear again – oh, and so would the boots, the leather skirt and all the other items in our little collection. And then I waited a few days, making clear that ordinary sex was on offer, if he liked, but nothing more. I did somewhat regret at that point not having tried a chastity belt, as he was obviously masturbating in the bathroom and I was sure the contest would have ended with my victory more quickly had he been unable to do so.  However, after nine days he ‘cracked’, so out came the outfits he liked so much and the cane he hated with equal measure – and the leather restraints with which I secured him on the bed, to help him ‘take’ the caning that I administered without mercy. I also discovered the importance of gags, after a series of howls that I thought would have the neighbour call the Police on us! Recalling Mistress Maxine’s approach in your excellent Maxine’s Maxims series, I slipped off my knickers, and stuffed them in his mouth, then tied a stocking around to hold them in. This both excited and quieted him, while also leaving me liberty to resume the thrashing without fear of discovery.  I did enjoy caning him, not sexually exactly (that came later, his tear-streaked face between my legs) but I do like the feeling of power.

After that, readers of accounts such as that of poor Robert in A Domesticated Husband will have little difficulty in guessing my husband’s trajectory. Having experienced the cane once, he was naturally keen to avoid its application and so things progressed most satisfactorily. Chastity – of course – and it did indeed require us to try a few different kinds of apparatus before finding one suitable for everyday wear, but now he does indeed wear it every day. A regime in which all the housework is his was easy enough to implement, as were restrictions on his lifestyle outside the house. Perhaps unsurprisingly, financial control proved to be the hardest thing for him to give up, but repeated use of the cane over an extended period of chastity did the trick and now he is, indeed, domesticated. There are several degrading activities depicted in your stories that I have no real desire to try, mostly involving bathroom activities, but also cuckoldry – his tongue is very well-trained by now, so why would I want some undomesticated male to take its place?

Obviously, he no longer has any need of your magazine, dear Goddess-Lady but in tribute to its role in transforming my marriage, I do require him to buy every issue. As he gets very little pocket-money, I am delighted to say that it accounts for around a quarter of his total expenditure – and locked in chastity as he is, he gets little from it. Indeed, he rather fears bringing it home, as we peruse it together looking for at least one punishment, humiliation or restriction that he has not yet experienced – and so far, you have never let me down, my dear!

Yours in gratitude

A Satisfied Wife

I am delighted to see the practical tips occasionally provided here for improving husbands being put to such effective use.  If his tongue is all you require as sexual service on his part, might I suggest you also consult the story ‘Nurse Eliza’s Private Practice’ in Volume 3, Edition 1? It sounds to me as if your husband is quite ready for such treatment, and it must be tiresome for you to have to indulge even occasional releases from chastity.  G-L. L.

Most magnificent Goddess-Lady

If I might ask … have you ever been tempted to ‘switch’ roles? Are you at all curious as to what it feels like to be on the receiving end of the treatment you so relish doling out?

Fascinated

Eric

What an impertinent question! Certainly not. Being under my lash looks and sounds to be a thoroughly unpleasant experience – why would anyone subject themselves to that? Except the male fools who read this magazine, obviously. And perverts beguiled by my beauty. Perhaps one day we will be lucky enough to meet and in-between screams you can gasp out to me an account of exactly what it feels like; I shall take a keen interest.  G-L. L.

Most Superior Goddess-Lady

I have been a reader of your magazine for some time and stories featuring ‘male maids’ are something of an obsession of mine, so I was excited to see the teaser for your tale of the downfall of the ‘Honourable’ Peter Cuthbertson and his housemaid Molly, in an earlier edition.  The full story in your last issue did not disappoint!

Oh, what a fool young Peter was! But how easily I can imagine myself being led down to the same path to destitution and servitude! From the moment he took the proffered petticoat in shaking hands and tried it on under her smiling supervision, Peter was doomed. How pleasant it is for me, as it was for Peter, to think of the delightful pleasure of flouncing around in a lacy maid’s uniform, layers of soft petticoats swishing deliciously around my stockinged thighs! And then to carry out a few light housework tasks under Molly’s supervision? Well, that merely adds to the sensual pleasure of playing out this scenario. And of course there must be punishment for any naughty or lazy maids who don’t work hard for Mistress – perhaps with her loving but firm hand, applied to my naughty bottom as I wriggle helplessly and shriek with pleasure and pain across her lap.

But then of course it only makes sense to start taking things a little further.  If Molly is to play at being the lady of the house, then of course she should have fine clothes, she should sleep in the main bedroom and be waited on at table!  And she will have little time for her former housemaid job outside this role, so of course Peter must do more around the house – and perhaps it’s time to swap that frilly nonsense for a more practical, hardwearing outfit. All of this merely makes the fantasy more compelling, does it not? And after Molly has instructed him in some of the more demanding aspects of a housemaid’s role, it is only fitting that any necessary correction emphasises more the pain than the pleasurable aspects of discipline. There is still a sensual thrill to be had, even in the onerous task of scrubbing floors or in carrying heavy baskets of laundry to be hung up.

If Molly – Lady Molly, we must now call her – is to play her part of the Lady of the Manor to perfection then of course she must have some control over the finances of the estate, so she can pay tradesmen or buy things for herself, without needing to break the spell of this fascinating performance the two are playing out. It’s not as if Peter – or rather, Petunia – has time for such matters, not with the beds to be made, the linen to be aired and that big pile of ironing awaiting her in the laundry room, is it? Not with that horrible cane awaiting her if she should fail to complete all of her allotted tasks, to the complete satisfaction of the Mistress of the house!

And so to the last scene, in which Petunia awakes at five in the morning as usual, in her cramped and chilly attic room, washes carefully in the cold water in her bowl, then puts on her uniform to begin her fourteen hour day of servitude, while Lady Molly sleeps peacefully and happily in her soft warm bed, the little bell on her bedside table ready for her whenever she awakes.

So easy to imagine myself slipping easily – almost willingly – down the same slope. And although some of the ladies featured in your stories often strike me as implausibly cruel and domineering [Nonsense. Women are crueller than you know – I certainly am and so are some of my dearest friends. G-L. L.], if anyone is likely to relish the role of an exacting taskmistress over a domesticated male, it is surely a former domestic servant herself!

The story seems so complete, I can only regret that there is unlikely to be a sequel. But if I might humbly suggest one, perhaps young Petunia could attempt one last, woefully belated, act of rebellion? Either overtly or perhaps through an attempted escape? How crestfallen she would be, to discover that all Master Peter’s clothing has long since been donated to local charities and that thoughtful Lady Molly has had the word put about that the young Lord of the Manor has fallen victim to a regrettable congenital lunacy and needs to be humoured, but then forcefully restrained and returned, should the poor lad be discovered wandering the vicinity!

With my deepest curtsey

Maid Felicity, Whippingham Hall.

Arrogant aristocratic males have – tragically – run this country for so long that stories in which the tables are turned appeal particularly to me, too. I myself was born on a council estate in Peckham because my parents moved to London, but my own ancestors, right down to my dear Nan, spent lifetimes scrubbing the floors of the stateliest homes of England. It therefore gives me particular pleasure to whack the backsides of some of the more inbred public schoolboys who so often seek such treatment and – foolishly – think they can remain in control. I always give them at least one extra for Nan: a particularly hard one, Goddess rest her soul.

Your idea for a sequel will be considered. G-L. L.

Dear Goddess-Lady Lucia

What do you think of women’s lib? It seems to me that many of these harpies shrieking about their ‘rights’ don’t really understand how much power an elegantly dressed lady can have in our society. If they only smartened themselves up a bit, shaved their legs and put on some make-up and high heels, I am sure the more attractive among them could find themselves with far more power than they can ever achieve through ‘consciousness raising’ or waving silly placards about.

Yours

A puzzled lover of femininity

I have allowed this filthy missive to be printed in case any readers need reminding how males truly ‘think’ (if I can dignify it with that term), when they are not fantasising about strict mistresses. Pay attention, ‘puzzled’: only morons like you find it hard to understand why women need more rights after centuries of oppression. A lifetime of domestic drudgery, under the command of an abusive partner – believe me, you’d soon be ‘shrieking’ if subjected to such treatment, just as my males do. I myself dress for sexual power, many women’s libbers prefer to dress otherwise… who are you to decide what women should wear?  Perhaps you need to spend more time in tight corsets and ill-fitting high heels; with little padlocks in case you are tempted to try to remove them. I myself believe the women’s lib movement mostly does not go far enough – Valerie Solanas’ Society for Cutting Up Men is an honourable exception – but they are sisters to me in spirit and right to focus on oppression. I just believe in oppressing right back: a few centuries at least with the boot firmly on the other foot (and kicking hard and repeatedly into the male groin or face) is required to even the balance, that’s all. We cannot be truly free until men are enslaved but there are many paths to that. G-L. L.

Dear Goddess-Lady Lucia

I adore your magazine but I must confess myself simply revolted by the letter from ‘Mummy’s Boy’, a few issues ago, suggesting you print fewer stories focused on use of the cane.

I am a professional disciplinarian but my work is also my passion as I simply adore caning; no other disciplinary implement comes close to it, for me. It is the combination of its simplicity and its roots in ordinary educational life until very recently, on the one hand, with its sheer brutality on the other. For me, ‘spanking’ implements are simply too mild and playful, while whips of any kind are too exotic, redolent of fantasy.

I apply the cane mercilessly. Very few men can ‘take’ the cane although many fantasies about it – I believe around one in four of clients I see ever return for a second dose.  Fewer still enjoy it. My ‘repeat’ clientele is therefore from that thin sliver of male society who both fear yet crave the cane. However, this is acceptable, as they pay handsomely for the privilege of being thrashed.

Let me describe one such client, whom I will call ‘Steven’. Steven first contacted me two years ago, received the shockingly painful treatment I always administer to first-timers and left, seeming most unlikely to return. Yet every three months or so, I receive a nervous call booking another session. Steven’s voice is hoarse and rushed as he makes the arrangements: I suspect he has been agonising for days or weeks, and has decided to ‘get it over with’. I imagine he puts the phone down and is instantly appealed at what he has done. On one occasion he called back in the period before the appointment to cancel – and I cooly informed him that he was entitled to do so, but that if he did not go through with any booked appointment, he need never contact me again. He rang off on that occasion but called back two days later desperately begging for the appointment to be reinstated – although not as desperately as his cries when I later had the opportunity to explain with the cane how rude his behaviour had been. He has not repeated the attempt.

Steven always arrives promptly, of course and is well-dressed. I imagine he is something in the City or some other well-paid profession such as the law or medicine. I take little interest in my clients except as canvasses for the works of art I create with my cane.  He hands me the fee and removes socks and shoes. I then tell him exactly what I have planned: quite often it is six across the trousers, then a further six on the bare. I always provide the traditional multiples of six and have given up to twenty-four strokes in a single session but it is normally between six and eighteen. Six of course is relatively light and is handed out on very rare occasions to ‘regulars’ only because that way they have some faint hope of avoiding twelve; hope that is almost invariably dashed.

I usually apply the first six across the trousers and do not often start on the bare – although I always end up there – as I believe there should always be worse to come. It might seem that the cloth protection makes this initial caning less severe – and it is, but it is also subtly different, creating more of a widespread bruising effect than the slashing thin welts produced on the bare.  I use a heavier, less flexible, cane across the trousers and although all of my clients know full well that the later use of a whippier implement on their flesh will be a special kind of agony, they are still usually pleasingly (to me) shocked by the intensity that a caning across a cloth-covered seat can impose. Of course those later whippy strokes will be still worse for overlaying these horribly sore bruises.

I occasionally require counting or thanking me for each stroke, but only for those who need extra encouragement to experience fear from the relentless pace of the caning.  Steven is not among them – his fear is palpable and, for me, thoroughly enjoyable. To have a terrified man at one’s mercy – and to show none – gives me the most exquisite satisfaction.  My punishment room is soundproofed, of course. On the very rare occasions on which I have caned on ‘client premises’ so to speak, I always deploy a gag and I find it deeply unsatisfactory. I have also just occasionally gagged clients who – whether through foolishness or simply driven mad by the pain – have called me offensive names. I prefer not to hear that and although I suppose I could force silence with the promise of further strokes, I do not like to vary the punishment once commenced.

For a set across the bare, I often give Steven a version of a ‘cow and gate’ pattern, where an initial set of parallel, horizontal strokes, is then supplemented by slashing diagonals that overlay the previous ones. The simplest such gate has five parallels and one – awful – diagonal connecting them all, but I find a four plus two pattern to be more painful and thus preferably. Not only is the ultimately-painful diagonal doubled, in this way it must be experienced than anticipated and re-experienced, which is far worse than ‘taking it’ just once.

I know Steven will cry out with every stroke will be sobbing by the time we finish. Most satisfactory.

The caning complete, I put away the cane, unstrap one of his wrists and leave the room, going upstairs.  I prefer not to engage in conversation after a beating: I used to, but the clients would try to make light conversation, even comment on my technique. The change in mood was always jarring, so with trusted clients like Steven I simply leave them to make their own way out.  With one hand free, he can eventually unstrap himself and ease his battered and sore body off the bench. Every movement agony, of course.  I hear him take a shower: necessary, as he has sweated and cried so much.  Then I observe him heading across my front garden and down the road, walking slowly and stiffly.

I know he is thinking “never again – never again!”. He will be in great pain for a couple of days and sore for at least a week, during which he will swear over and over again nevermore to subject himself to this ordeal, never to forget how awful the reality of the experience is, no matter how compelling the fantasy.  But then his cravings will start to build up and in a couple of months will seem to him as unbearable as the pain he has felt today. And I will get another anxious, pleading call.

Some men desire to lick the boots of a girl brandishing a whip… or want a ‘Mummy’ like your wretched correspondent – and I don’t doubt there are ladies who will supply that service. My clients simply need to be beaten and I am very, very happy to oblige.

Yours sincerely

Governess Charlotte

Yes, the ‘fearing but craving’ male is my quarry too. Although I myself do go in for boot-licking and the use of a leather whip, I prefer to enslave males who find themselves hating the treatment and needing it, all at the same time. It is odd how men can be so complicated and yet also so very, very simple.  Keep up the good work!  Perhaps you could inform Steven on his next visit that, in thanks for providing the material for such an interesting account for my magazine, I have requested you give him double?  G-L. L.

To the majestic Goddess-Lady Lucia

Your uncompromising approach to femdom makes me tremble in awe. I was wondering: have you ever accidentally killed a slave?

Humbly

Lucia’s acolyte

Accidentally? No. G-L. L.

Simply irresistible

Resistance is futile.

You may well find that your opinion is not firmly held, while you’re firmly held and hearing hers.
I’m naturally suited to SPH too. Just lucky that way, I guess.
’tis. But sometimes its better to receive than to give. How to decide? Fortunately, I never have to, so that’s not a dilemma I face.
Poor thing. Women sometimes have to work so hard – my SO, bless her, is absolutely tireless and relentless in how hard she works herself to make sure I’m performing at my absolute best. I’m very grateful.
Of course, no subbie is going to love a movie as much as one his goddess appears in.

Don’t worry, she’s not going to hurt you

…without good reason.

Boundaries are important in a D/S relationship. For example, my SO sets rigid boundaries for what I am allowed to do, think or say and in return, she has agreed never to do anything to me that she doesn’t want to.
Sadly, it’s not anything healthy and natural, from Goddess Nature’s good brown mud. It’s something that some thoughtless boorish littering male discarded, without a thought as to the harm it might do to any poor dumb creature that eats it.
He’ll be brokenhearted if she rejects him, as alas the great majority are rejected. Of course, the successful ones have their hearts broken too, albeit more slowly and painfuly.
I expect she’ll get to the bottom of it.
Let us all pray for more of those three, in this terrible world.
That’s the right sort of apology to make when something offensive and sexist – or just plain thoughtless – has been said: quick, heartfelt and complete. Males who aren’t lucky enough to live in female-led relationships just don’t have the practice to be good at apologising – really, really good, I mean.

Art is born of humiliation

And so is unoriginal, mediocre crap like this.

Adapting your behaviour’s really easy. In fact, if you just go with the flow, she’ll adapt it for you. [P.S. Don’t you love her t-shirt? I wrote the caption, for which the image was already perfect, before I’d noticed it.]
There are many things he’d like her to do. He’s learnt to cope with disappointment, though.
One fact-checking organisation did give Contemplating The Divine a 7% rating for truthful reliability, but that was focused on a few posts in which I’d exposed and deprecated my own sexual and other inadequacies… a more representative selection of posts would probably put it about 1%… maybe 2.
You could say no…. even to Sven. But imagine that disappointed face, hmmm?
The most important part of the session – handing over the tribute – went without a hitch, so anything else is best regarded as an extra.
Her predictions usually come to pass. She’s brutally honest with them, too: doesn’t hold back from giving bad news.

This image (and associated Femme Fatale movie) is of a truly historic event, in featuring Mistress Eleise de Lacy and Lady Sophia Black together. Two of the most beautiful, talented and creative dommes ever. Servitor has had the extraordinary honour of serving both wonderful ladies in person, but never together… that, I think, would have made my head and probably several other body parts explode.

Good boys always follow

As Ms Harry said, and I don’t think there’s any arguing with that.

I’m just relieved that the pins all the bridesmaids were issued with are for symbolic purposes. I’d imagined… well, it doesn’t matter, does it?
Males have difficulty sometimes in following through the logical consequences of their own statements. It’s not really their fault, they’re just morons.
Her company takes bullying very seriously. So does she.
Part of the reason the Kerbside Sexist Service is so popular, of course, is the generous rebates of up to 1000% on the subscription fee, paid by the sexists themselves. It makes ‘peace of mind’ very affordable.
If you do mind, she doesn’t.
Yeah, weird that. Mine are mostly for locksmiths, for reasons I’ve never understood, but at least that’s not something my SO could find objectionable, I suppose.

The brutal reality

As the little disclaimer to the left there states, this blog makes no claim whatsoever to realism. Over the years, this has served me quite well as a catch-all excuse, when certain commenters – anonymous or otherwise – point out small inconsistencies, minor plot holes or blatant and wildly implausible attempts to ignore the physical laws of the Universe in one caption or another.

But just for a change (but not for the first time, or the second or even the third), we’re going to be focused on reality in today’s post: the truth about femdom. How it really is. Because that’s reality. Because. That. Happens.

Don’t worry, we’ll be rejoining the unreality-based community in the next post, on Tuesday.

One of my regular dommes agreed instantly, when I asked her for a gentle, slow-paced four-hour boot-worship session, but things got a little difficult when I turned up and she realised I’d hoped she’d be wearing the boots during the whole time.
As long as there’s something soft nearby to break her fall if she topples over, maybe?
Anyway, the bowl doesn’t have to go through the bars, does it, he can just stick his head out and… hmmm… Oh well. Ella can be Kross with me whenever she likes and it’s all good.
Cruella especially has perfected the photographic genre of ‘domme standing in stiletto heels on a hard surface surrounded by muddy countryside – with no clue how she got there or how she’s going to get away.’ It’s a minority interest, obviously.
More a comment on this blog’s approach to images of lesbian joy than the general reality.
Too right. I was watching Penance and Repentance for the Naughty Nympho Nuns yesterday evening and they got the words of the catechism completely wrong -spoiled the whole thing for me.

Spare the rod and spoil the marriage

Don’t worry: these ladies won’t.

Some wives are actually quite liberal in extending ‘permission to ask’ – one of my SO’s friends lets her boys beg whenever they like, says she rather enjoys it.
Especially when you’re wearing the pink one.
Of course, if you don’t enjoy it, you can always just wait until she orders you to argue or complain, then you can tell her all about how you feel.
For non-British readers; if a domme ever accuses you of ‘taking the piss’, she’s not referring to your impressive swallowing technique during toilet-play, she’s probably quite cross with you (‘pissed-off’ even).
If she holds her hand in the right place, they won’t see the leash, either.
One of my SO’s former girlfriends was an ears, nose and throat specialist. It was quite a relief when I discovered she specialised in removing tonsils, not ‘tonsils’.

… and as an extra, here’s a sweet little femdom video if you like that sort of thing.

In a plain paper bag

Yet another post in which I lovingly, pointlessly, artlessly recreate a letters section from the magazines of my mis-spent late youth, such as Vixen and Mistress. I find it strangely satisfying… perhaps one day I will produce an actual fully faked mag, as a pdf. Or not. The stories were a little samey… then Cruella came along with better production values and wilder stories and blew my head away for the second time. Then OWK came along and did it all over again.

The title of course refers to the way the mags were wrapped after being taken to the counter in my shaking hand. Not plain brown paper, oddly enough, it was usually some kind of pastel shade or even flowery paper. I wonder if those bags had any use other than wrapping porn?

Anyway, I’m not here to witter on. Over to the Editrix herself, Goddess-Lady Lucia, back in the saddle (and digging her spurs in) after the one-off edition guest-edited by her mum.

Editorial

Male filth. Some of the less moronic of you, reading the last issue rather than merely ogling the pictures while engaged in revolting masturbation, might have spotted that the third page of the story Lady Ursula’s Riding School made little sense, in that Lady Ursula and her young trainee Rita leapt straight from racing carriages around a track, into bed with one another, then seemingly back to the race track again, all in the space of three columns.

It was, of course an error; and like all errors, the cause was an incompetent and lazy male. Empress is produced using a modern ‘linotype’ system (combined with an old-fashoned system of slavery), in which text is ‘typeset’ in a machine which then spools out each story as one long column on photographic paper. The column is then cut to length with a scalpel and then ‘pasted up’, together with the photographs, using hot wax. All of this, obviously, is done by slaves. Magazine slave 7 pasted the columns in the wrong order, the moron, and Magazine slave 2 who was supposed to check it, failed to do so. Because of this male incompetence, the error was left uncorrected by the time of printing.

But it was vigorously corrected afterwards, believe me! The hot wax used in ‘pasting up’ gave me an idea (actually, the scalpels gave me an idea first, but I did not want any trouble with the law). Magazine slave 7 is rather hairy…. well, he was. Now he is smooth (actually rather pimpled), and very red, all over. I took particular pleasure in pouring unusually hot wax all over his groin, then pulling his pubic hair out in big, satisfying, agonising handfuls. Magazine slave 2 is already hairless, being something of a sissy, so instead he wrote a 2000-word essay on ‘What a fucking useless piece of shit I am’, type-set it, spooled it out and then proceeded to eat the entire article, with a side-order of hairy wax from 7. They were then both caned and permitted to beg piteously to keep their (unpaid) jobs.

If any reader spots the slightest flaw in what should be a perfect magazine, he is commanded to write to me. I shall not be so lenient next time. G-L. L.

Letters

Dear Goddess-Lady Lucia

You have published several articles and letters from dommes describing their strangest clients; allow me to add my ‘Boot Boy’ to the collection.

Of course, boot and shoe worshippers are ten a penny (although they pay a lot more) but Boot Boy takes it to its purest essentials. He is a very easy client, although a certain amount of pre-session preparation is required, as I will explain. As the name suggests, I wear boots, sometimes of the stiletto-heeled fetish variety, but more usually ‘ordinary’ riding boots, for good reason as I shall explain! Our sessions are in his own house, as an ‘outcall’ (for which he pays extra) and either on the way there or earlier in the day, I make sure to get the boots good and muddy by walking through a muddy field – the squelchier the better.  On arrival, he greets me wordlessly, I sweep into the house trailing muddy footprints and once he has removed my coat, I head for the living room.  There, he serves me a drink then gets down on his hands and knees and carefully removes my boots.  This done, I tie his hands behind his back.

He must now take the boots off away the hall, just outside the living room, and get the mud off. Obviously, with hands unavailable he has to carry the boots and then clean then with his mouth. It is actually quite difficult to clean anything just by licking and swallowing, if you think about it, as mostly the tongue just moves the dirt around. So, they are not by any means perfect when he has finished, but the large masses of mud should have been removed and swallowed (as should any bits that fell on the hall floor), leaving only a light sheen of muddy saliva.  When he says he is done, usually after about an hour, he brings them in his mouth for inspection and if I am not satisfied, I slap his face (just once, but hard) and send him back to continue.

After a slap or two I am usually ready for him to move on to the next stage, in which I untie his hands, he goes off into a corner and applies himself to the boots using a more conventional kit of brushes, cloths and polishes. He generally does a pretty good job of that, to be honest, although I sometimes slap him and make him do it again even so.  I try to be reasonably fair: if he knew that I was always going to reject his first attempt with a slap, it would become routine. All this time, I have a drink and some snacks that he left out and I usually have a book or magazine with me. So it is a very easy afternoon – but he pays for every minute!

When I have finally approved the boots, I indicate that he should put them back on my feet, which he does reverentially. I take one last, careful, quizzical look at both, turning my foot and leg to inspect his work. Then I either say “Very well: you may” or I slap him one last time and say “Not this time” and I get up and leave. If it is the former, his hand goes straight into his trousers and he masturbates.  It is very quick; I can usually hear him finishing before I have my coat on and am out of the door. But I do not look back. If my final opinion is the negative one, he does not masturbate but just remains kneeling and still, while I go (no doubt he masturbates later).

And that’s it!  I speak four or five times, deliver two or three hard slaps and have a pleasant afternoon catching up on some reading over a nice glass of wine! As I said, if there is any work involved, it’s in the muddy walk on the way, but that’s easy enough. There was an occasion one August when everything was too dry for mud and I had to ask a rather startled gardener if he would mind watering a mound of earth for me!  But he is one of my favourite clients (I do hope he does not read your magazine!): no trouble to anyone and weird but harmless!

Yours muddily

Mistress Severe

Thank you for that fascinating account, Mistress Severe. I know that a lot of men enjoy licking boots, but even so it gives me great pleasure to watch the filthy pigs abasing themselves and performing this demeaning activity. Males are smelly, dirty, disgusting animals but some of them occasionally forget how they appear to us, the superior sex, so it is a good idea to remind them of their true nature. Even if your boot boy is getting perverted pleasure from the experience, he is at least paying for it. Can you imagine how your teenage self would have felt, at the thought that in a few years’ time men would be paying to lick the mud from your boots? They say that if you love what you do, you’ll never have to work a day in your life, and that has certainly been my experience and I hope it is yours too. G-L. L.

Most superior Goddess-Lady

Like many submissive men, I am abjectly grateful for your wonderful magazine. Like most of your readers, I suppose, I am obsessed with being controlled, punished and abused by a woman. I believe I can trace the development of this obsession to my early childhood.

When I was just five and six, we spent two summers in Scotland with relatives and it was there I met my distant cousin Elspeth. A fiery redhead one year older than me, she was in charge from the start and I loved it. There was obviously nothing sexual in our games. Nor, I think, can they be considered ‘bullying’ but they usually ended with her sitting on me, or even with me tied to a tree (playing cowboys and Indians, or spies… or almost anything really – we were on a farm and there was plenty of rope around). 

Then after two glorious summers (as I remember them through the rose-tinted spectacles of nostalgia but it was Scotland so there was probably a lot of rain) we started holidaying elsewhere and I did not see Elspeth for twelve years although I often thought of her. Then, when I had just turned eighteen, there was a family gathering to pay respects to my great-aunt, who had reached her eighties, and I was startled to hear a Scottish lilt behind me saying my name, turned around, and there was Elspeth.  I suppose she was nineteen and she was stunning.

We escaped the elderly throng and walked off through some nearby woods. My heart was pounding, but we talked of inconsequential things and reminisced. At one point she said “I’m afraid I was pretty cruel to you when we played as kids.” To which, without thinking, I blurted out “Oh no – I liked it!”.

After a very brief moment, she gripped my hand tightly and led me off the path into the woods, until she found a patch of grass in a secluded spot. There, she pushed me to the ground and laughingly lowered herself onto my heaving chest.

“Did you like it when I did this? I’m heavier now, mind.”

I could hardly breathe, but I gasped out my assent. She giggled, and shuffled back until her weight was supported by my groin. Crushed as it was, my penis responded forcefully – I was sure she must be able to feel it and I was horrified by the thought that I might even ‘go off’. It was hard to imagine anything more embarrassing.  She giggled again, drew up her legs (somehow further focusing her weight on my straining groin) and took off her shoes. Then she stood up and started to wriggle out of her woollen tights,

“I don’t think we should do that here” I said, for some reason that for now completely escapes me. Possibly fear: I was still a virgin.

And would remain one for the moment, as it turned out, because she just laughed and said “Filthy-minded boy!”. She pulled at the tights between her hands, testing their strength and their give, and murmured “No rope here, is there?”

Soon I was tied to a tree by my wrists, just as in our childhood games. Unlike those games, she then proceeded to undo and pull down my trousers and – over my plaintive objections – my pants.

“Filthy, filthy little boy!” she said again, as my engorged member bobbed free. As I stammered out apologies, she reached out and detached a thin green shoot from the tree.

“Where you beaten much in school?” she asked, her eyes trained on the branch from which she was stripping the leaves and twigs,

“No, never” I replied. “The school didn’t really believe in it. Two boys got the cane once for being caught in town out of hours but…”

She was now flexing the switch and when she saw me looking, smiled and swished it through the air with a whirring sound.

“What are you going to do with that?” I asked stupidly,

“Whip you, of course” she replied. “Whip your naughty bottom.  You know you need it. I expect you play with yourself, don’t you?”

“No!” I gasped.

“No, you don’t play with yourself or no, don’t whip me?” she asked, coolly.

“Don’t whip me!” I gasped.

“Ohhh… so you do play with yourself?” she laughed in that delightful Scottish lilt. “Well, then, you certainly deserve a good thrashing. But if you really don’t want me to whip you, just say so, I’ll untie you and we can go back to the house.”

I said nothing, my mind a whirr.

“All you have to do” she said “Is say, I don’t want to be whipped, please Elspeth, let’s just go back to the house.”

I said nothing again, accepting my fate.

“Right then” she said, grinning with delight. “Turn around and face the tree!”

“No!” I shouted.

“Fine, don’t turn around then” she shrugged and raised the switch as if to deliver a cut right across my waving member. I hastily turned around, just in time to receive the first slash across my buttocks. I cried out.

“Shh!” she said, sounding really concerned. Not for me, but for fear of being discovered, I imagine. “If you can’t keep quiet, I’ll need to gag you.”

“OK Elspeth, I’ll try” I mumbled and was rewarded with another slash which made me scream all the harder.

“Wimp” she said in disgust. “Right…. what can I gag you with… oh, of course”

The cotton knickers stuffed into my mouth were wet – and I didn’t understand the significance of that at the time. But they did the job and I was able to ‘take’ the rest of the thrashing with my teeth clenched, emitting muffled groans as she cracked the branch across my poor buttocks.

Eventually it was over (possibly because her makeshift implement was disintegrating, rather than any sense of mercy on her part) and I soon found myself once again lying face up on the ground, she first towering over me, then settling down again on my groin. The difference this time being that neither of us was wearing underwear.

Obviously, I came almost immediately, to my shame, and I was still stammering out my apologies when her skirt enclosed my head and I was given a lengthy opportunity to make amends. When that was done, I was erect again and she shifted back and this time it went better. Except that when I was fully in, she leaned forward and started steadily slapping my face, back and forth, hard, until I came. Then my face disappeared under the darkness of her skirt again and this time she turned around, so she could face my lower half – to slap at my thighs and – horrifically in that post-orgasmic state – occasionally my cock and balls.  With Elspeth pain – my pain – and pleasure were obviously intimately connected.

Soon after that, we had to finish and we made our way back to the house. I offered her her knickers back, but she wrinkled her nose at the saliva sodden mass of cotton and let me keep them. She put her woollen tights back on, though, for appearances’ sake, which must have been a bit uncomfortable, without the cotton underwear. But not as uncomfortable as my stinging bum and aching genitals!

She and her family left that night and to my horror I learnt that they had only been there as a good-bye before moving to Australia, where she was to attend university. I cried for months. I won’t say exactly what I did with the knickers… but I kept them, of course. I still have them today.

And that’s… really it. I am now in my late forties and I have never again met a girl – or woman – who enjoyed these games the way Elspeth did. So I visit ladies whom I pay to act these scenes out and that’s… OK.

I met her just once again.  It was another family event – perhaps even the funeral of the same great-aunt, who had lived to a ripe old age (strong female genes in our family). Elspeth was there but I only got to speak to her in a circle of nattering relatives. She recognised me and smiled that smile that had haunted my dreams and then, just when I was about to suggest we go somewhere to talk, she said “You must meet my husband, Paul.”

Paul was a pleasant, unassuming man. He was a little like me, I later thought. I didn’t really have the chance to get to know him, though, as they had to leave early.

“Come along, Paul. Get the bags and we’d better head off” she remarked without looking at him.  He hurried over to the corner and picked up a couple of bags, then somehow got engaged in conversation with an elderly relative.

“PAUL!” she snapped, from the doorway and his head jerked upwards in shock, his eyes wide in what I can only describe as fear.

“Coming dear, sorry dear” he stuttered, and hurried over to the door and off they went. There was some amused discussion and I distinctly heard the word “henpecked” from several quarters.

Fools: how could they fail to see that Paul was the luckiest man alive?

Yours longingly

Gerald

That was actually rather sweet, Gerald. Good boy. I hope one day you find a woman who treats you the way you deserve. Oh dear me, am I going soft? Better go and find a slaveboy to beat. G-L. L.

Dear Goddess-Lady Editrix

What is the most important quality you look for in a slave?

Respectfully

Humbled

Slaves don’t have important qualities, idiot! G-L. L.

Dear Empress

I run a tattooing business in London. Lately, I have begun to specialise in the femdom ‘scene’, despite that not being my own ‘thing’, so I bought a few issues of your magazine in order better to understand my clients and their interests. I thought it might be of interest how femdom couples use tattoos, in my experience. [And, no doubt, you hope to drum up trade for your sordid little business. But this is interesting, so I will allow it. G-L. L.]

When I was first asked to tattoo a ‘slave’, accompanied or not by his ‘mistress’, I had some concerns about consent. Although sometimes the man would be arranging his own tattoo as a gift to his dominant, some were clearly carrying out her wishes (and in some cases were not even aware of the precise content of the pattern they were due to receive). However, it became clear to me that they had all ‘consented’ in a sense, a deeper sense, and so they are asked to sign the form like any other client and that is that.

I would say there are three ‘levels’ of tattoo a submissive male might receive. Level 1 is a ‘normal’ tattoo as might be worn as a sign of commitment by any vanilla client: the lady’s name, perhaps surrounded by flowers or within a heart, messages such as ‘Devotedly yours’ and so on.  Although such motifs are outwardly innocuous, I have no doubt that it is of very deep submissive significance for the man I am inking to bear the name of his dominant in this way.

The second level is a discrete but unambiguous statement of the man’s role in the lifestyle. There is no simple dividing line: a snaking whip or pairs of handcuffs might replace the flowers and hearts, for instance, as a very light-touch signifier of status. More usually, however, I consider it a level two femdom tattoo if it includes the word ‘slave’ or ‘property’ or similar. It is obvious that getting such a tattoo is a powerful symbol and statement of a man’s submission, and my male clients often seem to be in a state of rapture as it is applied and on first seeing the end result. Accompanying ladies usually also seem to regard it as a significant occasion and there is usually some touching scene involving kneeling, boot-kissing and suchlike. In general, I try to gently indicate that a tattoo shop may not be the best place for that.  However, on one occasion I was asked to apply several ‘level twos’ in a club as part of a ‘collaring ceremony’, along with other parts of a ritual such as vows, the collar itself of course and – finally – a whipping.  Not for me, any of it (especially the last part) but I’ll confess I found the ceremony oddly moving.

Examples of such second-level tattoos might be simple statements such as “Slave X, property of Mistress Y” or “House Slave No. 3 in Lady Y’s domain” to the more ornate “Slave X, formerly [Name], freely and wholly offered to Mistress Y on [date]” this last being the inscription on the ‘collared’ slave I described earlier. Such motifs are usually placed high on the buttocks or on the chest above a nipple, or both. Another common place is the lower buttock, just above the thigh – and I always ask whether this is intended to be viewed with the male standing up, or bent forward (as the skin stretches in the latter position, so it is important to know). Thus far, I can report 100% responses indicating the latter, although I still always ask! Many dominants like to sign their slaves’ tattoos, although this is usually best done on a piece of paper for me to ink in, the tattooing pen being a little tricky to use smoothly without practice.

A level 3 is much the same but usually a larger and more blatant declaration of slavery. By far the most common place for such a statement is the lower back, typically right across the width of the two buttocks below. Generally, the lettering is large and somewhat brutal… no one changing at the swimming pool could miss the letters SLAVE blazoned across the lower back with the typical level 3.  One lady has had three of her disciples tattooed with the rather officious “Property of Mistress X, not to be used for sexual or any other purposes without the explicit permission of the owner. Please report any misbehaviour to “– and it provided her phone number. Many use numbers and letters as slave designations, or insulting names such as “Bootlicker”, “Moron” or “Cockroach”.

Incidentally, having mentioned buttocks I have to remark that many of those in front of me seem to be in a pretty bad condition! Reddened, bruised, whipped, flogged with a cane… even if I do see something in the devotional aspects of the relationship I cannot myself understand the appeal of subjecting oneself to this. But each to his own. Sometimes it matters for the tattoo: on one occasion the man in front of me removed his pants to reveal a criss-cross of raised fresh weals from a cane, right where I was supposed to be recording his love for the lady who had presumably inflicted them. I had to explain that I could not reliably tattoo over such ridged flesh, as the tattoo would distort when the skin healed and returned to normal. I could also have added that the buzz of the tattooing pen on what must have been a painfully sore area would be pure agony – but judging by the lady’s demeanour, I doubt she would have seen that as a reason not to go ahead!

Of course, there are other places a submissive can be tattooed… especially in the groin area. As a heterosexual male I am never comfortable working in such close proximity to the male sexual organs… especially as so many of these clients clearly get very excited during the process. However, the clients presented to me for work in this area often raise (ha ha) no such concerns, as their penises are usually locked neatly away in a device. Such clients are often quite effeminate ‘sissies’ with perfectly shaven pubic areas. Little pretty hearts, fairies or stars are usually the order of the day here, although quite often I am commissioned to write short insulting pieces of text concerning the properties of the organ below, or its unavailability. One memorable tattoo involved a large, colourful image of an erect penis, in glorious reds and purples, emerging from the plastic ring securing the tube in which the real thing was locked, extending about nine inches up the ‘sissy’s’ front and labelled “So much better!” Assuming the poor chap is occasionally unlocked for some kind of sexual relief, he can presumably see his actual organ standing up as far as it might in some kind of direct comparison.  I doubt it is a flattering one.

There are things I will not do. No tattoos to the face (no reputable shop will do that), no ‘explicit’ tattoos to any part of the body that is generally visible outside day-to-day clothing. [Almost the entirety of my slaves’ bodies is generally visible outside their ‘day-to-day clothing’. G-L. L.]  I do not carry out ‘piercings’ although obviously many other places do and some of the requests for that are pretty wild [Oh don’t be coy. Are we talking about a permanent chastity fitting? G-L. L.]. And perhaps I could take this opportunity to state for the record: no, I will not ‘brand’ your slave with red-hot iron! It’s not a common request, thank goodness, but I have had several couples arriving with long metal rods whose ends are worked into letters or simple designs. On one occasion, the lady had brought her own blowtorch and seemed most disappointed that I was not comfortable with the idea of using it to heat her “LS” brand to flesh-searing temperatures, then inflicting third-degree burns on her slave. [Oh, I would be. Very comfortable. G-L. L.] I have to say, on every single occasion, the accompanying male has looked mightily relieved at my refusal to carry out such activities, although one swiftly changed that to a thoroughly unconvincing expression of disappointment under the angry glare of his dominant. I don’t envy his lot.

So, there you have it! I hope you will not object to this slightly self-promoting letter. [If you were one of my slaves it would be classed as ‘permitted but punishable’, G-L. L] It is important to choose a reputable and safe tattooist and while there are many of those, few are experienced in meeting the… particular needs of your readership. I hope to see many of them in future.

Yours sincerely

Robin Attwood, Inkerman Tattoos, Little Compton St, London W1.

All of my slaves are tattooed and pierced and your letter reminds me that it is really about time I had them branded. Typesetting this response and getting this edition ready for printing is the first notice they are getting of this, so I hope their hands are trembling in fear!Mistresses and slaves with experience of branding are particularly encouraged to write in.  As for you, currently unowned male Robin, pay for an ad next time. G-L. L.

Dear GL

Do you think your magazine could please, please feature more lesbian discipline?

Sapphic admirer

If, as I suspect, you mean women punishing women for your viewing pleasure, the short answer is no. I cannot really give you the long answer, because you are not chained to a whipping post in my dungeon.  The magazine features lesbians enjoying each other, features lesbians disciplining males, features males being disciplined by lesbians, and in my exalted opinion (which is the only one that counts – in this magazine as in life) those seem to me to cover the only relevant topics. G-L. L.

Dear sister

I have seen several accounts in your excellent magazine of ‘toilet training’, ‘golden rain’; and the like from males but none from the female perspective. As the dominant partner in our marriage, I thought you might be interested in how my husband Simon and I became involved in this activity.

It was my idea, not his. Indeed, he didn’t know it was coming. We had been married about two years and our relationship had developed well beyond the ‘playful spanking’ stage into a more serious exploration of subjugating the male. But I was well aware that it could be taken a lot further and I knew that my friend Janice and her slave husband Robert made use of this humiliating technique, so I arranged to go over to their place for dinner.

Simon was well aware that Janice’s disciplinary regime was rather stricter than ours and was on his very best behaviour. So when she peremptorily ordered him to accompany her to the bathroom with a snap of her fingers, he quickly glanced at me and on my nod of approval, scurried after her.  “You can use the one upstairs if you need it” she smiled at me on the way out.

Upstairs, I tried my first experience of using a male as a receptacle and I found is so odd that I couldn’t bring myself to produce more than a dribble. Robert of course had been perfectly attentive and tried his best to relax me but it just wasn’t going to happen.  I pulled my knickers back up and we headed back downstairs, Robert asking nervously whether I was going to tell Janice what had happened. I imagine he was terrified she might think it was his fault and I was about to reassure him but then remembered how much Janice liked to keep him on his toes, so I said nothing and let him fret. Neither Janice nor my husband were anywhere to be seen in the drawing room, so I went into the bathroom to be greeted by a sight I’ll never forget.

Janice was standing there, knickers off and leather skirt up, holding a riding whip.  Simon, on the other hand, was on his knees immobilised into some kind of frame that held his arms and legs and bent his back into a tight curve, leaving his face pointing nearly upwards. From that face protruded a large plastic funnel, its spout firmly jammed into his mouth by a strap buckled around his head.  On the floor near him were several puddles of what was clearly urine and one of his thighs was striped with savage crop-marks. These, Janice told me with mock severity (but clear enjoyment) were connected: the crop on the thighs being her standard remedy for ‘spillages’.

On seeing me, Simon began to gurgle and try to form words around the funnel, rocking slightly from side to side to the extent his restraints permitted, which was not much. Janice raised the crop menacingly and he went instantly silent, quivering slightly, his eyes gazing up at the two of us. Suddenly, I felt a terrific urge to ‘go’.

Is there a limit to how wide eyes can open? Simon’s had already been round and staring when I entered the tiny room, but they grew appreciably larger and rounder as I worked my panties down, then – impossibly – larger still as I manoeuvred myself into position and looked straight down at him. And then I peed into my husband’s mouth. It was… wonderful.

It was also a mess. He gurgled and shook and drops of urine flew about. The funnel was filling much faster than it was emptying, so it became rather full and, towards the end, his shaking movements caused a major spill.  When I had finished, Janice silently handed me the crop and I learned over to deliver a crack across his other, unmarked thigh. It was appreciably less red and angry-looking than the marks she had produced and although he yelped, I got a distinct sense that he was relieved it had not been worse. So I lifted the crop again, gave it my all and really thwacked the leather loop onto his soft inner thigh. This time there was a distinct scream – it was the hardest I had ever hit him at that time. Well, he was experiencing a lot of firsts that night. I gave him another three or four just the same way.

I did wonder whether, once released, he might rebel and tell me this was too much., After all, our relationship had only recently progressed beyond sexy games and if he had protested, I wasn’t really in a position to force him – we didn’t use the word ‘slave’ habitually back then. But he did not. He was very subdued on the way home and rather quiet the whole week. Neither of us mentioned the activity…  Then the weekend after, I left a funnel in the bathroom and ordered him in.  When I strode in, he was looking at it in dismay. I showed him the brand-new crop I had bought during the week and he hurriedly got on his knees and put the funnel into his mouth.

And we’ve never looked back!  Oh, the first few weeks were horribly messy. I never rigged up quite such a rigid frame to hold him as he had experienced that first night at Janice’s so we had a lot of spillages. But this just gave me an opportunity to use the crop frequently and hard, taking the disciplinary side of our relationship to a new level, which I think it had needed for some time. Eventually, Simon learned not to spill and even to do without the funnel. Indeed, these days I rarely pee into the toilet at home, instead simply clicking my fingers and settling forward in my chair for him to scurry over, get down on his knees, remove my knickers and get to work. Sometimes I pull my skirt up, so I can watch him gulping and swallowing, other times I like to let the skirt fall right over him, so his entire upper body is invisible: my handy receptacle. When I am finished, he licks me clean and I usually have an orgasm.

One funny thing is how quickly it changed our relationship. Up until then, we had behaved as near-equals when not actively engaged in BDSM. But I remember one day over breakfast, reading the paper, and he ventured a remark about the latest political scandal and I just burst out laughing. My toilet was expressing his political opinion!  It was simply too absurd. Men take themselves so seriously, but how can anyone be taken seriously after you have peed in him?

Yours in sisterhood

Gemma

Dear Gemma, I couldn’t agree more!  I’ll never go back to cold lavatory seats now. It is also a solution to the problem we ladies often encounter of inadequate public facilities for us (something that will be addressed – and retribution exacted – when we take over).  Men are ludicrously proud of the fact that they can pee in the nearest bush. Fine: we can pee in the nearest man. G-L.L.

Most exalted Editrix Lucia

I am writing to ask your advice, since I cannot mention my ‘lifestyle’ in any more conventional public forum. My wife and I have long made use of spanking and other disciplinary games in our sex lives. Gradually, these activities have extended more into our day-to-day lives too as she took control of the family finances and started occasionally giving me a ‘real’ punishment, unrelated to sex. On one of these occasions, she produced a cane and gave me a few strokes with it, which I found to be of a completely different nature from the pain produced by any of the implements she had used before: hairbrushes, belts and the like. I told her that the cane was too much for me and she (rather reluctantly) agreed never to use it on me again.

I have long been locked in chastity and she has occasionally brought men home for the night; a night I typically spend out of sight (but not, alas, out of range to hear what is going on) in an attic room. These have normally been one-night stands or occasional; short flings – nothing serious, merely physical, as she likes to say, knowing perfectly well how maddening it is that this merely physical pleasure is unavailable to me, except on the increasingly rare occasions when she decides to produce the key and I am ‘rewarded’.  However, recently she has taken a lover, Arthur, in a relationship that is more serious, and she has made him aware of our lifestyle.

Naturally, I find Arthur’s presence objectionable, but as I serve him and my wife their dinner before he leads her giggling upstairs, I am in no position to object. I do find it difficult to conceal my feelings, though, and my wife has had to speak sharply to me – and apply some firm discipline – on several occasions. We have an agreement that she does not punish me in front of other people, so this has always been after Arthur has left the house.

The other evening, however, everything changed. After dinner, my wife told me to fetch the cane from our ‘play cupboard’, where it had hung unused for some years. My head was in a whirl, but something in her voice told me it was better not to object. When I returned and handed her the horrible thing, though, I started to stammer out objections until I was struck dumb with horror when she handed the cane to Arthur, who proceeded to bend and swich it approvingly.

My wife coolly explained to me that she had been thinking and that although our agreement prohibited her from caning me, or in any way disciplining me in front of Arthur, there was nothing that said she could not ask him to cane me – and that was what was going to happen. I hardly had time to process what was going on, before I was bent over the table, my wife using her weight to hold me down – and a few seconds later I was screaming and begging frantically for mercy as the bamboo cracked hard across my trouser seat. I suppose I should be grateful I did not have to remove my trousers, but it was a horrific experience nonetheless.  After the traditional six, I was allowed to stand up (I staggered) and thanked him, before they went upstairs – my wife looking even more aroused than usual. I tidied up, my poor bottom finding each movement agony, then went to cry myself to sleep, face-down of course.

Although the next time Arthur came round, I was not caned, I was ominously warned as they went upstairs that my behaviour was acceptable ‘this time’. Clearly, my wife intends this to become a standard part of our disciplinary regime – which has turned from a sexy dream for me to a nightmare! In fact, just the other day I woke up in a cold sweat, gasping in terror, after a dream in which Arthur was methodically beating me with the cane, with my wife looking on and laughing.

Goddess-Lady Lucia, I need to say something to my wife, to Arthur, or to both of them, about this. I can see that our agreement does not explicitly cover this situation, but it seems utterly unfair of her to exploit this loophole, taking advantage of my trusting nature. But I thought I would ask a second opinion, and as I can hardly talk to colleagues at work, I am asking yours. Do you think this is fair?

Anxious, Yeovil.

No, Anxious, I don’t think that sounds fair at all. It is really horribly unfair, in fact. I love it! I hope Arthur beats you savagely, the next time you misbehave. I would so like to be there to watch! Then afterwards, perhaps you could plead with your wife to rescind all these ridiculous ‘agreements’ with their pettifogging restrictions on what she can do, and she will cane you herself. Don’t imagine she will be any easier on you than he is, though: my guess is that after all these years of treating you more leniently than you deserve, she will want to make up for lost time. I know I would. G-L. L.

All bad poetry springs from genuine feeling

With grovelling apologies to anyone with even the slightest taste, it’s a special OWK poetry day! You see, I – no, come back! Really, it’s not that bad, and anyway at least there are pictures of –

Hello?

Anyone still here?

Oh well, just you and me, then. OWK poetry, anyway, all based on the kind of traditional British canon I learnt (but perhaps suprisingly given my interests did not actually have beaten into me) at school. More difficult than it looks, even done this badly, especially as there is essentially no one-word rhyme in English for ‘kingdom’, or for that matter ‘Owk’.

Just in case any of you are interested, puzzled or just entirely short of better things to do sitting there, as you are, in front of a computer with your trousers down around your ankles, the actual poems these are mangled from are, in order:

  1. How do I love thee?
  2. Jabberwocky
  3. The Tyger
  4. The Waste Land
  5. Elegy written in a country churchyard
  6. To his coy Mistress

Treat you with a vengeance

From a song by the lovely Toyah. She once interviewed the strange, rather disturbing but oddly exciting Miss Martindale, of Aristasia fame, you know.

Images are unrelated, unless they’re not.

You might want to keep it handy; I sense it’s going to be one of those days.
Keep calm, she’s a professional, she does this all day.
Hope you like dust.
The key is to listen to both sides of the story, then ignore whatever the male said. After that, it should be easy enough to get both sides to agree who was at fault and on the appropriate course of action.
The easy way was difficult, but this is – oddly – going to go a lot more smoothly. She’s quite determined, so that’s that.
Don’t be such a wimp. Don’t you trust her?
