Fourplay Fetish Feature: Dommes & Submissives by Billierosie

Please be sure to check out our interview with Billierosie, as part of the Fourplay Fetish Feature.

Whether you are talking about the literary genre or the lifestyle itself, female domination isn't a simple fantasy/fetish niche. It is an umbrella term for a wide range of experiences, which can range all the way from affectionate spankings to cruel torture and humiliation. Some of it can be quite shocking, but it is important to remember that one person's punishment is another's passion.

And that, I believe, is what sets Dommes & Submissives: A Femdom Anthology apart. Billierosie certainly explores the darker, edgier, crueler side of female domination - sometimes to the point of making me squirm in my seat - but never loses sight of that fine line between pain and pleasure . . . between punishment and passion. These are not stories of games or recreational fetish scenes, but of a lifestyle commitment, and both parties know what they are in for.

There is a lot of psychology and philosophy to the stories here, which I found fascinating. Getting inside the heads of Dommes and submissives alike is always interesting, and Billierosie paints a vivid picture of precisely why they choose to partake of such extremes. There is definitely an element of female superiority to some of the stories, especially with the globalized secret society of the Coterie, while the men have an inherent need to be owned. While it is not a collection without its moments of affection, the first story especially makes it clear how the lifestyle can fail when it is not separated from traditional ideas of love.

Personally, I enjoyed a lot of what is on display here - erotic bondage, forced oral worship, aggressive pegging, orgasm control, and even the public humiliation. Some scenes were a little too cruel for my tastes, and there was some talk of degradation that crossed a line for me, but overall I enjoyed it. Billierosie is a talented author, with a genuine flair for portraying powerful women, making this a solid read for Dommes & Submissives alike.
