MadeiraDarling -> Feminine Masters or Male Doms? (4/1/2010 6:42:59 PM)

I was wondering why there aren't more of these (I do know they exist as I've been with a few), personally although I generally identify as a lesbian I find feminine appearing dominant men to be incredibly sexy, ala Jareth in the Labyrinth. I mean we all know that femininity doesn't automatically equal submission and masculinity doesn't automatically equal dominance or vice versa, and I do see some butch-er dommes out there... it makes me curious.
To me, feminine men have always seemed kinda dominant (maybe too many childhood viewings of the labyrinth hehe) because in my mind it takes a helluvalot of balls for a man to be feminine or pretty, and as well there's a sort of rebel quality about a certain style of femininity, not to mention I've always thought of a lot of more sexualized items of clothing as sort of... powerful, high heels, and corsets, their power to draw desire makes others obey. Similarly it's interesting how characters like this often appear in movies, from the comedic camp of Tim Curry's Frankenfurter, to David Bowie's exquisitely cruel goblin king.
Something in that androgyny as well escapes the typical arrangement of male as pursuer and women as pursued, femininity seems to grant the power to make them come to you. To me there is something otherworldly in such men, they recall Shakespeare's Oberon, and are masters of masculine strength and feminine manipulation.
Femme-doms are so often called goddess, because we think of femininity as otherworldly, as mysterious, and isn't that almost supernatural quality one that can be associated with dominance, with power, we almost never call male doms god, and yet looking into the eyes of a past lover one night drunk on vodka and cranberry juice from mason jars, my back pressed up against my front window as we had passionate sex, I swear I saw Diyonisis in his eyes.
