I’ve seen that many times:

• I love pantyhose, but what will [parents|friends|girlfriend|neighbours|people somewhere] say? I will wear pantyhose, when they are accepted by “them”.
• I would love to wear pantyhose with shorts, but I’d better wait until more men begin to wear them.
• I’m dreaming about the time when it would be normal for men to wear swimsuits openly.
• Yes, i know that pantyhose look and feel better on hairless legs, but shaving legs… What would my friends say?
• and so on…

We are not getting any younger. What would look perfect on a young body more likely will not look as good when the body gets old. Yes, I know there are exceptions. But this is why they are called “exceptions”.

Don’t wait until it’s too late. Play safely and be tolerant. Amen…

… and Aurora.

Patterned latex suit worn over lycra zentai. Sounds impressive, does not it? But I would say a bit less impressive than “purple semitransparent latex mummy bag with built in hood”, or “leotard lined purple catsuit with straight-jacket capabilities” (see Approach No1).

But please note the time you spend staring at this or that photo. Can the time be considered a good “personal criteria”?

Jerome Gouvrion (Paris, France) stays behind well-known fetish sites: captiveculture.com, latexculture.com, ladyfemdom.com (no affiliation). Recently I came across his blog. The reason for that was the photo on the left. Retro-like, sepia-toned pin-up photo featuring Anais. I’m not very familiar with Jerome’s works, but having seen quite a few of images published on the above mentioned sites, I would say that the “bucolic shot” (like Jerome called it) is a bit different.

Excited I began to browse through all 66+ pages of his blog. But (to my surprise) little could I find (see below). Great lighting, astonishing quality, beautiful models, exquisite fetish clothes, elaborate bondage, perfect minimalism, but … The photos do not work for me. At all. Even the selection I managed to squeeze out of the pictures posted in the blog can’t be considered as 100% “working” but rather “ok to be saved”.

Of course, I’m talking about myself. Tastes differ, but in my humble  opinion the works lack substance. They lack something what makes you believe, what makes your mind and imagination drift beyond the flat pictures, what allows you to tell plastic from flesh.

I would be happy to be proved wrong. What Jerome’s photos do work for you? I’m just trying to understand why something works and something does not despite the same set of attributes.

Just stumbled upon this photo made by Lithium Picnic. Let’s return back to the same old question about why this fetish photo works and this one does not. This one looks very simple. Apnea is not wearing anything unusual or extra “fetishy”. You can even close the left three thirds (with stockings, chain, etc) with a piece of paper or a palm of your hand, leaving just her face.

The teeth, the lips, the gag, the closed eyes… You feel It.

Check Apnea’s website for more.

The first ChristopherT’s work I stumbled upon was the one with two figures mummified with inflatable latex bodysuits and connected to each other with a latex trunk. My first thought:”Someone made a photo in the style of heavy latex catalog by DeMask”. However, the trunk was something new I had never seen before.

Some things are predictable. E.g. leggings will be (already are) back. Or, for example,  people will be wearing latex. Check, for example, this post.  And it looks like latex indeed is making its way into everyday clothes. Just watch this video (you don’t need to speak German to understand what they are talking about):

So, we are getting there!

She looks like a girl from Eric Stanton’s cartoons. Fetish artists tend to exaggerate or emphasize fetish objects, but this Russian swimmer is real.

BBC wrote a tutorial on how to walk on 6″ heels. The original text is here. I do like the wording and how accurately everything is formulated.

Sexual Desire

Extreme high heels can be an object of sexual desire in themselves. They change the posture of the wearer and lengthen the legs, emphasising the calf muscles. The curve of the arch and the naked ankle are vertically penetrated by the slender stiletto. Buckles and straps tying the foot into the shoe can imply sexual bondage. Feet point during orgasm, and high heels mimic this, high heels to extreme.

Foot movement, and even movement of the entire body is restricted in such high heels, meaning that the wearer can be considered to be in the power of her partner, as running away is impossible. They can also make the dominatrix superior to her partner, as she suddenly towers over him, making him feel small and powerless.

Hello. I’m back. The  very busy “vacation” is over and guess what? I will spend  the next four weeks “home alone”.  Sounds exciting, but I haven’t yet recovered after the illness (overworked and caught a cold, also see here). Nevertheless, the preparations are underway: new DIY ideas are swarming in my mind, 5 ice locks and other interesting stuff are cooling down in the freezer, the hair below the waist level is gone, cotton bed sheeting is replaced with latex, new [fetish clothes] orders are waiting for the final clicks, and the “home alone” rules  are almost finished (please, feel free to add/change/modify/delete):

1. I must wear fetish clothes (latex, lycra, etc) 24×7
2. full encasement during the nights
3. I must spend 4 hours (average) a day gagged and 8 hours plugged.
4. Every second night I must sleep bound, every fourth - inescapably with time locks.

Average means: if I’m not gaged for 24 hours, next day I must be gagged for 8 hours.

What holding me off is my illness: stuffy nose and dry cough do not mix well with gags and cold latex.

Lips. Just red lips. And a bit of teeth (pun intended).

Speaking of fetish photography, minimalism and imagination. Can it be any simpler and more seductive? And it works.
