The Liberation Of Kink

I was fascinated to read the kinky femdom artist Sardax reminiscing about his first view of the internet, and his instant grasp of its liberatory effect for kinky artists:

The first time I saw the internet was a complete revelation.

One summer’s day around ’96 I was at the seaside home of an erotic writer, who also happened to be a pioneer of the web. He had invited me to see his new Apple Mac – “his wonderful machine” and the astonishing ‘Internet’.
Through a fug of heavy cigarette smoke I gazed at his magic lantern, at something called a ‘website’!
“Surely they can’t show that ??” I gasped as we looked at some dubious page.

I was reminded of the famous lines of Keats poem, ‘On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer’ :-

Then felt I like some watcher of the skies
When a new planet swims into his ken;

I could see that the rules had all changed. We could now write and depict virtually what we wished. Oh, sure, the webhost was in between but they were usually quite liberal, hippy and unintrusive . And kinky art was liberated, as was a lot more. No longer did I need to worry whether my drawings would be published because I could be the publisher.

Cinching Her Crotch Rope

The crotch rope looks pretty tight, but I’ll be we can get it a little tighter if we give it a sturdy yank:

This looks to be from the enormous and gritty corpus of John Blakemore’s infamous HOM/Cal-Star movie loops and related magazines.

This helpless chained damsel is about to get mussed, I think:

Handcuffed For A Cold Shower

Her dom finally found a creative solution to the “how do you punish a girl who likes pain?” problem. Long cold forced showers. Warming her up afterwards is fun, too:

Bondage Buyers Guide & Almanac

How would you market a bondage magazine in 1977? That was a whole different media world, but apparently putting a half-page paid advertorial in High Society magazine was one way:

I can’t find much information about the Bondage Buyers Guide & Almanac title online, but apparently it was the first magazine ever published by Harmony Publications, later to become famous for the long-running title Bondage Life.

All I can really say about this photo is that before the evening is done, she’s really gonna need to wash her hair:
