FETISHWEEK – What about Female Dominance?

[info_box]FETISHWEEK covers the best BDSM News and most interesting fetish links of the last week.  I am actively accepting news, press releases, personality profiles, and review items for both FETISHWEEK and The Fetish Show.  I am particularly interested in topics related to BDSM/kink/fetish, but also alternative art/photography/modeling, sex, burlesque, fashion, relationships, events and more.  I can get your story out to a much wider audience in a way that is positive and respectful.  Contact me now:   dirk@dirkhooper.com [/info_box]

I want to use this opening section in this edition of FETISHWEEK to guide you to a story that ran on The Huffington Post.  The story is Continually Seducing Consent: ForteFemme by Midori and it mentions how there’s been too damn much attention paid to women who submit since Fifty Shades of Grey hit the public consciousness.  What about the other side of the coin?  What about female dominance?

Besides hopefully enticing curious vanilla women to explore dominance, and besides the fact that this is a positive article about BDSM at a major media source, the article features the lovely and talented Midori.  I had the pleasure of meeting Midori at the San Diego Comicon in the mid-nineties and even got to see her put on a great demonstration at a charity fundraiser later that evening.  Midori is first class in every way.

So, please take a moment out of your day and check out an article that’s provocative and gives female dominance the respect it deserves… or you might have to spend some time in the naughty corner.

Dream hard,
