		<description>***this is our culture whether we like it or not.*** &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;is this dual subjugation?  yes, the women are being &lt;i&gt;serviced&lt;/i&gt; but oddly enough the &quot;mandigos&quot; are being directed to direct. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;this convoluted power play where those who experience social privilege take a vacation from their assumed command and venture into subjugation, do so only under the premise that they will get their power back.  i say this because, if they are uncomfortable in any way they will quickly assume their privilege again. affluent women, and men–participating as agents of prowess–seem to concede to this orientation. whether they see it as a networking opportunity, sexual exploration, or simply sexual get-back, each understands someone is allowing them access. in this case art hammer is the gate-keeper.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;recognizing this power/privilege dynamic for what it is the sex-men seem to participate in the game of role play as a way to find access, to an existence not readily available to them in their day lives. it reminds me of a thrill ride (yes, like a  roller coaster or haunted house). however, what doesn&#039;t change is that thrill rides don&#039;t offer anything beyond momentary pleasure and restricted access.  neither of the two is  enough if expectations for role play are located beyond the &quot;thrill.&quot;</description>

		<description>Even though it was here, I assumed this was a joke; an early April Fools&#039;, perhaps?  I mean, &lt;i&gt;this can’t be real.&lt;/i&gt;  But it was easy to find, and on the &lt;b&gt;Details Magazine&lt;/b&gt; website, no less.  Call me a prude, but to say that I literally felt sick as I read it doesn’t even &lt;i&gt;begin&lt;/i&gt; to describe how this makes me feel . . .</description>
