Q&A with Fetish Model Venus O’Hara

Q&A with Fetish Model Venus O’Hara

Photo by Andrew O'Hara   Last month I posted the short film Love Me Like You Hate Me, directed by Swedish filmmaker Erika Lust and staring fetish model Venus O’Hara in seven different kinky roles – including strict teacher with a ruler and a lazy student in French class.   As luck would have it, the website Spanking Starlets has just published an original interview with Venus that showcases... [Read more]


Kink. Art. Advertising.

Kink. Art. Advertising.

Erotic imagery is used to market everything from beer to boner medication, so it’s no surprise that the liberated folks at The Stockroom feature some racy photos in their gigantic online catalog of fetish gear and “sexual technology.” What is a little unexpected is how remarkably tasteful, artistic and sexy the product photos are.

Have Strap, Will Travel

Have Strap, Will Travel

If the playroom was on fire or the morality police where breaking down the door, and I could only save one implement from my ridiculous collection before scooting out the window like a thieving raccoon, it would have to be the beloved Canadian Prison Strap from Ian, the London Tanner. (Not to be confused with the Arkansas Prison Strap from the same artisan.) At 25” x 3”, the heavy CPS is the nuclear... [Read more]


Video: Love Me Like You Hate Me

Video: Love Me Like You Hate Me

  I haven’t seen it posted anywhere else, so I thought you might enjoy this strange little movie from Swedish filmaker Erika Lust exploring the dynamics of female/female dominance and submission — including spanking. The first half of the eight-minute production touches on domestic servitude, bondage, confinement and verbal abuse – which may or may not be your thing. But then it segues... [Read more]
