One of the interesting things about fetishes and kinks is that their erotic focus often isn’t where you’d expect it to be. Think about worship scenes, for example: while the spotlight is ostensibly on the dominant partner themselves (or their breasts, or feet, or whatever), what really makes those scenes hot is the act of worship – something that comes from the sub. In an entirely counter-intuitive way they, and their actions, are that scene’s real erotic focus.
In a fantasy like the one we’re publishing this week, the reverse is true. On the face of it, this erotic audio recording seems to be all about the listener: you’re being addressed in the first person, and everything the narrator describes is happening to or within your body. Scratch the surface, however, and a very different story emerges. What turns people on about this scene is the Mummy figure herself – stern, nurturing, taboo. The power of this power fantasy is in the knowing self-gratification of its domme.
Understanding where a scene or a fantasy is focussed can be an incredible way to start untangling what turns you on and what that arousal might mean to you. In a scene like this one, that plays with taboo in ways that certainly aren’t for everyone, it can also be an important way to figure out where our boundaries need to be.
We’re releasing a new free kink education video alongside this film that discusses some of these questions in more depth. If you’d like to think more about some of the topics fantasies like this can raise, it’s well worth a look.
