Honey and Sting

Though I`ve not got an agriculturally-inclined bone in My body I will confess to you all that in the last couple of months I have become fascinated with honeybees. Most notably because as I read more and more about hives and honeybees I am realizing that they are a great prototype for how to sustain a FemDom community.

Consider the following: The hive`s entire focus and raison d`etre is the Queen. She is waited upon by hundreds of attendant bees and nurse bees for the entirety of her life, and is the only bee in the hive who is fed royal jelly for the entirety of her development, a substance of incredible nutritional value that develops her sexual capacity. Guard bees, who protect the hive from intruders, are willing to put their lives on the line to defend the Queen, as are worker bees, who, after stinging a person out of self-defense, die.

The only male bees in the hive are called drones, and the only thing they have to accomplish in their short lives is to mate with and fertilize the Queen. Only one of them can do so, however, and the others are pushed out of the hive and left to die or fend for themselves. All is not peachy for the lucky drone, though - after mating with the queen his genitalia gets ripped out of his body and remains in the body of the queen. He he. Next time someone tells you that CBT is not a natural practice, you can use this example to prove them wrong!

It evokes a kind of mythical FemDom fantasy world...and I believe it would make an excellent plot for an erotic novella :-)

Travel Much?


Out of the goodness of my heart, I have decided to share some travel highlights that I thought might be of interest to various subgroups in my constituency.

First of all, if you look at the photo above, you will see Stiletto Palace, located in the Covent Garden theatre district. Built by Christopher Wren in 1776 as a cathedral dedicated to that most perfect and lust inducing of all objects ever discovered: the stiletto heel. Devotees can rent a room overlooking the cathedral's piece de resistance: a massive, larger than life, shoe. The shoe is kept shiny by a dedicated team of 200 shoe cleaners. 50 are in charge of licking the sole, 50 regularly deep throat the heel, and 100 are kept on as relief staff for when the other's tongues get tired.

Always full of practical advice and ready to share it with the world, Brits sell some of the most insightful souvenirs! At the left you will see a nice selection of t-shirts at a shop in Soho, printed with the slogans that got the British Empire through the war! What kind of momentum and motivation would there have been to fight the Germans if the British soldiers couldn't maintain their erections? Keep your peckers up, men!


A four day sojourn down to Spain found Me at the Salvador Dali Theatre Museum in Figueres. Now that was a kinky guy if I ever saw one! The next time I want to humiliate and objectify one of you little miscreants, I am going to make you sit naked in a corner while balancing a nice fresh hot baguette on your head. Drop it, and I'll skin you like the pheasants behind the bust and pin you to the wall using map pins. Just saying.

Gone Fishing

Will be back March 10. My email access will only be sporadic while away so if you must email Me, do so closer to My return date.

Room for you? If you act quickly...

Session slots are disappearing at a rapid rate over the next week, so if you'd like to see Me before I vanish to the cultural masterpiece that is London, England, do crawl forward sooner rather than later!

I am taking sessions up to 3pm on the 15th of February, after which you will be spanking your own rosy bottoms until I return on the 10th of March. Not the same, I know, but until I devise a way to fit you all in my luggage while evading suitcase weight restrictions, I'm afraid you'll all have to stay here.

Never having visited the UK, I am looking forward to witnessing first-hand the country that practically invented power dynamics, and whose public officials are more likely to get caught in a scandal involving sordid kinky sexual sheninigans than any other offense!

All tongue-in-cheek, of course - I have a soft spot for Brits.

Hope to see familiar faces before I leave, and if not, have a wonderful winter and I'll see you after March 10...

Whips and kisses,
Her Majesty Princess Shahrazad

Want a Treat?

NOW, NOW... DOWN BOY!

Sensual Control Versus Sadomasochism

"I fantasize a lot about being dominated by a sexy, powerful woman, but I am not really very much into pain."

Can you relate to this statement? Seems most people who contact Me can - about 75% of new queries that I've received in the last three months contained a variation of this statement, enough to make the social scientist in Me go "Hmmm".

There seems to be a popular misconception out there that Dominas are always sadists (people who get off inflicting pain on others) and that submissives are ALWAYS masochists (people who get off on experiencing pain). This myth is so pervasive that it makes potential submissives doubt themselves and their desires (ie. If they don't like being hurt, then can they still be a good or useful submissive...?)

The answer to that question is: Of course they can!

The term BDSM has a triple meaning: Bondage and Discipline (B/D), Domination and Submission (D/S), and Sadism and Masochism (S/M). Though S/M is only a third of what kinky play encompasses, it gets focused on by popular media because the experience of pain as sexual pleasure is controversial and can be easily sensationalized.

What happens is that the more sensual forms of playing with power, those that focus on administering sensual control or being sensually controlled, get swept under the rug. Things like bondage and restraint, foot/boot/shoe worship, slave training, strap-on play, orgasm restriction, coerced self-stimulation, role play, tease and denial, forced feminization, and sensory deprivation (to name a few) do not necessary involve pain and yet I can promise that you will feel deliciously controlled and overpowered by Me when experiencing them.

If S/M genuinely is your kink, then enjoy it! If it isn't, though, don't second guess your submissive urges. Not everyone is a painslut. As Rumi says, there are a hundred ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
