Tied Rocks

Beauty comes to us in intricate ways

Bondage can be art. Karen Okino Butzbach and her mother Shizu Okino create 'tied rocks', using traditional Japanese knotting techniques. Mother and daughter explain on their website how:

"We use traditional Japanese basket making techniques to transform rocks into art – art that invites quiet contemplation, peace and serenity.

We use rattan or cane to wrap and tie the rocks with ornamental knots used in Japanese ikebana basketry. The stones are individually selected for shape, color and pattern. The knots are selected to complement the size and shape of the stone. The result is a fanciful, decorative piece that, we believe, projects a sense of peacefulness and tranquility."

Their creations are sold at the Asian Art Museum in San Francisco and several gift shops in the San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles. If you live in the area and wonder what to buy for the mistress who has it all, why not a tied rock?

Just one thing. I'm itching to turn them over and see how the backs are done, aren't you?

Men Who Are Afraid of Dominant Women

Ask yourself, what are you really looking for in a dominant woman?

From before I threw out my bucket list, German pro-domme lady Pascal. Because she has that enigmatic quality. Her smile doesn't hurt either.

One thing that has always surprised me is just how young the average pro-domme is. Despite the fact that too many life stylers in 'our community' rage against pro-dommes - while demanding 'tribute' before that first, initial contact - the dislike is disgusting. Never understood.

Modern Clickbait Classics: Female Police Officer Stuffs Her Panties in His Face

Come for the clickbait, stay for the crap journalism.

Come on, it's a story about clickbait. What'd you expect? (Image Daily Mail)

The other day somebody sent me a link to an article about a female cop who stuffed her panties in the face of a fellow male officer. No doubt a dream come true for many, but to me it sounds boring. A quality clickbait newspaper such as Britain's Daily Mail can do better I thought. Below are 11 random 2018 Mail Online stories dealing with kink, femdom, fetish and BDSM one way or another. Not 100 percent accidental of course, I ingored the worst of the worst. Please excuse me for not reading each and every story.

"Mistress, I Love Everything About Your Outfit and Toys"

Mistress Alina's smile is definitely 10/10. Very impressive, even, if you, like me, live in a 11/10 smileverse. (Image: Tumblr)

Life is all about the three I's: me, myself and I. Not even Steven Jobs could change that. The other day I ran into a post on Tumblr with this caption:

"Mistress, I love everything about you - your charming and dangerous smile, your beautiful and oh so stinging whip, your boots that I long to kiss, and the very nice bench where you will beat me black and blue"

The guy who wrote it never realised what he just said. It's kind of silly and made me laugh out loud. I'm all for women born with a smile on their face, so yes, I'll give him that. Mistress Alina's smile is clearly intoxicating. Unfortunately our boy is getting a little over-excited when he ponders just how "dangerous" her smile is. Next you know it is all about whips, boots 'n' benches and "me". So funny.

Mistress Sidonia's Champagne Gag

Gags and mistress' champagne go surprisingly well together in a deliciously devious and highly creative English Mansion video clip.

Happy mistress, happy slave. Femdom at its finest at the crossroads of creativity and wickedness.

It's always risky to confess your love of gags, even if you need them purely for practical reasons. People immediately begin whispering just how suspicious it is, Dutch writing posts featuring images of gagged female submissives, even when it's appropriate writing an article on quack science and women wearing gags. Gags also look better on female submissives. And no I'm no closet male dom, it's just that we men are the uglier sex, which also means we are the lucky ones.
