Part of me wanted to write an effort piece on this, but decided against it because it’s porn.
But damn a lot of femdom stuff is creepy. Like the use of slurs and racial tropes is ridiculous. And I’m sure that power thing that’s portrayed in the fantasy is the reality for how some men see relationships, just all power and transaction. I feel like the right actually take this stuff literally.
The whole “cucked by” [non white] men thing. Research shows that right-wing men are way more into that fantasy. I just imagine that after the fantasy is over, they go back to hating brown men as they have legit fears of their women being stolen.
Fetishes in general are strange things, they can often overlap with things that people hate or fear, or with traumatic experiences. There’s a lot that goes on there, and unfortunately, some people use their fetishes as a means of reinforcing their own worldview.
(I won’t go into too much detail, but I do fetish commission art for people and a common theme for some people is an idea that everyone else “secretly” has their same tastes/ideas. It’s just “fantasy” in the commission, but someone who consumes too much of that sort of stuff and doesn’t hear dissenting opinions will probably start to believe it.)
Huh. That would actually make a lot of sense, if their only understanding of “feminism” is watching porn.
