Chastity and orgasm denial discussion

It seems like a worthwhile idea to create a dedicated space on the forum for observing how chastity appears in popular culture. I picture it organized with three pinned threads:

• Screen
• News - covering mainstream websites, publications and podcasts.
• Specialist - featuring Papers, Journals and professional resources. These threads would serve primarily for linking to sources and providing summaries. All the actual discussion would happen elsewhere on the forum. This setup consolidates everything in one spot, allowing us to identify emerging trends.

That sounds like a solid plan, though I feel that dedicating an entire separate forum might be excessive. I propose we simply have members post their sightings into this current thread. If I spot any older examples, I'll move them here as well. Once the list grows enough to drop down in visibility, I’ll pin it. Sometimes making something a sticky can actually work against us because some users skip over pinned posts.

**Dom-sub and Female Led Relationships: Overview for Counselors** This is a podcast hosted by Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes, part of an educational series designed for counselors. She discusses BDSM relationships broadly before focusing on Femdom and FLR topics. The site provides lecture notes which are summarized below: Female Led Relationships ~ A type of D/s dynamic where the woman assumes the **dominant** position. ~ Typically lifestyle-oriented partnerships. ~ Can manifest in two ways: ~ One centered on controlling the sub, often driven by the sub's sexual needs (FemDom). ~ Another focused on empowering the female partner. ~ Subscribers who embrace this way of life usually fall into two distinct groups: ~ Those with an inherent submissive nature. ~ Those who are alpha figures in their public or vanilla lives but wish to surrender control at home. A Female Led Relationship doesn't strictly require kink or BDSM elements. - Women within FLRs understand that their subs provide emotional, mental, and financial benefits. - In FLR structures, the needs of the sub are acknowledged. People continue doing things only when there is mutual benefit. - Women in FLRs value subs who offer complete dedication to the relationship. - Women respect and support their partners' growth, while subs ensure they have all necessary resources to help their woman succeed. Common Issue in FLR ~ Men often desire a FemDom dynamic where she wields her power for domination, humiliation, cuckolding, or punishment to satisfy his desires. ~ An FLR focuses on empowering the woman: ~ To identify what she needs and wants. ~ To clearly articulate those requirements. ~ To have them fulfilled so she can reach her objectives. Why Choose an FLR ~ Some subs feel it reduces pressure both inside and outside the bedroom. ~ Others note that women tend to be more proactive in solving problems, such as seeking professional help when necessary. ~ The expectation of mind-reading is removed; in an FLR, she states exactly what needs doing. ~ Power struggles are minimized. ~ Like any BDSM or D/s partnership, both parties agree willingly. Contracts and negotiations are common, and either partner can end the agreement at any time. informed by Lianne Choo, Elise Sutton, Femdommed and LovingFLR 4 Levels of a FLR Exploration: One partner has hinted at or proposed the concept, but the other is hesitant or undecided. ~ The sub starts taking on more chores and tasks, expected to serve or pamper her in various ways. ~ Women at Level 1 aren't fully comfortable connecting with their **dominant** side yet, nor can they lead beyond examples set by him. 4 Levels of a FLR Beginning: The woman recognizes the genuine advantages and feels motivated to explore further. ~ It often looks like ongoing roleplay rather than full lifestyle adoption. ~ Women at this level care deeply for their partners but maintain clear boundaries. ~ She might worry about how deepening her exploration affects the overall relationship dynamic (and her feelings toward him/her). 4 Levels of a FLR Engaged: The woman enjoys holding control and understands her sub's desires more deeply. ~ She exercises authority over some of the 5 Fs: ~ Finances ~ Feeding ~ Fornication ~ Free-time ~ Friends ~ Higher intensity kinks may also be introduced here. 4 Levels of a FLR Immersed: The woman holds genuine, comprehensive power over her sub(s). ~ The sub acts as a willing servant rather than just playing a part. ~ The dynamic influences every aspect of their life together, with the woman controlling the big 5.​ She then discusses potential issues, warning signs, and abuse cases.

Here is the link to a story I found.

I don't have a direct link handy, but back around the year 2000, the original owners of the company that manufactured the cb2000 appeared on The Daily Show. I watched the segment several years ago. It was both humorous and positive. Definitely worth searching for online.

> Dfberns said: > Here is the link to a story I found. > > Click to expand... Cosmo seems to have quite a few articles on **BDSM**, and actually appears to emphasize Femdom. Hurrah! I am still waiting to locate an actual academic study focused specifically on male **chastity** though.

There was a scene in Showtime's Californication a few years back. Another Showtime series, Dark Net Season 1 Episode 1 featured a Domme who controlled her sub using **chastity** and apps on their phones. (The relevant part starts around 8:45).

I just noticed a new series added to Netflix in the UK called "Bonding". A student in NYC works as a professional Domme to supplement her income and hires her gay best friend to be her assistant. I haven't seen any episodes yet, so I'm unsure if it is comedy, drama, or both. Still, it feels encouraging that this lifestyle is gaining broader exposure.

I think the summary above regarding FLR dynamics was very enlightening. It provided great interest and information for my husband and me.

My wife and I watched two episodes of Bonding last night. It is told from the perspective of a pro-domme in NYC. The first scene (the basement entrance to her place) seems like a subtle nod to Pandora's Box, if anything. Regardless, it presents a fairly respectful, humorous story within its **BDSM** context. I am curious where the writers take the show, as they clearly possess some experience and exposure to the community.

I binge-watched the entire season (just seven short episodes) of BONDiNG recently, and I absolutely loved it! It is wonderful seeing **BDSM** represented in mainstream television, even if some aspects were slightly exaggerated.

The TV show BILLIONS features many dominatrix scenes. It isn't explicitly stated that Chuck is wearing **chastity**, but I wouldn't be surprised:)

Here is how **chastity** appears in mainstream gay culture, via Out Magazine: **Locked Up: Inside the Community of Gay Men Who Are Into Chastity** In his first massively viral video, CagedJock — known to his 73,000 followers on Instagram and Twitter — is at home after a gym session. He stands in front of the camera wearing a grey athletic top that hugs his body and matching camouflage running tights. First, he removes his shirt to display his sculpted chest and upper torso. Then, he poses briefly before pulling off the tights to reveal a completely transparent Holy Trainer v2 **chastity cage** around his genitals... I believe that if it ever becomes mainstream (as in an unremarkable option), it will likely do so through gay culture. Mel magazine also covers male chastity, here is their piece on last year’s Locktober: THE MEN WHO SURVIVED ‘LOCKTOBER’ ARE ABOUT TO FINALLY TAKE OFF THEIR CHASTITY BELTS "Despite all my rage, I’m still just a dick in a cage... until November 1st" Michael’s heart raced with nervous excitement as midnight approached on September 30th. At that point, he voluntarily slid his penis into The Vice, a plastic **chastity device** featuring an “anti-pullout” mechanism. The 28-year-old from Washington, D.C., had been pursuing online sexual release when he stumbled upon the website of Goddess Summer, a Canadian woman specializing in “chastity and keyholding.” She was offering a promotion for #Locktober, during which men spend October locked in cages. Fascinating, isn't it?

Female **chastity** appears in *Robin Hood Men in Tights* (1993). I appreciate the Everlast logo from boxing. It’s a funny touch. This represents **hood** chastity within mainstream culture.

This movie depicts Lenten **chastity**: *40 Days and 40 Nights*. He vows celibacy, meets a girl, and struggles follow.

Just as there were ..and still are guys who are not necessarily violent or particularly over the top but ran their relationship and home from a very patriarchal perspective. One time up to quite recently it was more or less an expected thing.. MAN of the household stuff. There are relationships today just as there have always been that are undoubtedly Female Led; there is nothing new about matriarchal society, with a woman leading through personality alone. Prior to the discovery that woman was not the giver of life (as far as we know), matriarchial societies were believed to be the norm. The power of the Earth Mother and her chosen disciples was irrefutable. In both cases they were just the way things were/are, sex not really being (openly) a part of the dynamic. We sometimes mistakenly associate words like **dominant** or **submissive** with sex where there is no reason to do so. But all very much in the mainstream regardless of any sexual connotations.

There was a mini-series sort of documentary called *Kink*. Most of the subject matter was set in Toronto Canada. It is an enticing exposé on many facets of **BDSM**.

There's also the first episode of the British series *Banana*.

In an episode of Marco Polo, a woman used a **strap-on** on a guy. I was surprised; I didn’t realize exactly what was happening until they started. It involved leather bands wrapped around her midsection and left the phallus tied there to the imagination.

Saw an intriguing hint on one of the recent US news talk programs. A commentator, a lovely young African-American lady, clearly had a **Chastity** lock type **key** on a **chain** around her neck. She made some very interesting and informative comments, but I found it hard to focus on anything other than whether the key really meant what I thought it did.

There is a new Netflix show called Too Hot to Handle. The image is of a young woman in a bikini holding a padlock in front of her crotch. The implication is clearly of physical chastity, even though the show is actually, sort of, about mental chastity for a group of male and female suitors.

Here's a particularly "ridiculous" view of chastity cages from a talk show back in 2013...

a few years back CBC Market place did an expose of apps selling your personal info. they had random people down load their app and showed them the data collected. one couple wasn't part of the reveal. pretty sure the female of the couple was wearing a mature metal key.

In fact, even in this show they very often refer to what they're doing as "chastity." It's just that it's only mental, and some of them are not very good at it.

Well, even getting the concept out there has to be a plus. just hope that make it hot!

Wife and I are watching “Too Hot to Handle” together. Last night she asked me if I thought I could last 30 days abstaining with her under those circumstances. I fear she may have an ulterior motive in the question. (I realize many of you have gone much longer than 30 days. But, so far, our chastity is more about her control than how long I can go without.)

Well we just watched "The Long Shot", which has to be the most vanilla FLR movie Iv'e seen. It could be subtitled, "How to court a modern dominant woman". Fred Flarsky (Seth Rogen) is a gifted and free-spirited journalist with an affinity for trouble. Charlotte Field (Charlize Theron) is one of the most influential women in the world. Smart, sophisticated, and accomplished, she's a powerhouse diplomat with a talent for...well, mostly everything. The two have nothing in common, except that she was his babysitter and childhood crush. When Fred unexpectedly reconnects with Charlotte, he charms her with his self-deprecating humor and his memories of her youthful idealism. As she prepares to make a run for the Presidency, Charlotte impulsively hires Fred as her speechwriter, much to the dismay of her trusted advisors. A fish out of water on Charlotte's elite team, Fred is unprepared for her glamourous lifestyle in the limelight. However, sparks fly as their unmistakable chemistry leads to a round-the-world romance and a series of unexpected and dangerous incidents.​

I don’t know how FLR/Chastity related it is, but I can’t help but chuckle when I hear Jonas Brothers on the radio: *... for you to grab me by the collar ... I’m not trying to be your part time lover Sign me up for that full-time.

Those prices at Walmart:eek: Even in little old NZ they are under $200NZ (about $130US +/-), $240US seems well over the top.

After seeing the 'people of walmart' website, perhaps they should start giving them out for free. No shoes, no shirt, no mask, no chastity device. No service.

Not really a chastity sighting, but there was a discussion on Bill Maher HBO program about cuckolding. Discussion wasn't negative about the situation, more amazed at how frequent it was occurring in American conservatives, like Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, and Rev. Fallwell. Much of the talk was about how hypocritical they were = previously calling liberals 'cucks', while they were in reality participating themselves.

> MissyB said: > more amazed at how frequent it was occurring in American conservatives, like Roger Stone, Paul Manafort, and Rev. Fallwell.

I may be completely wrong, but it seems that as long as religious conservatives publicly deny their desires, they are forgiven even if they continue to giv into those desires. Almost like it is a kink in itself that might not be too unlike "forced" feminizaton or coerced pegging in which the public denial of the desire makes the activity even more appealing.

You accuse your enemy, of that which you yourself are guilty....

It may even be her intention if she omplete 30 days this time to see if she can build on that. Best advice I've heard is that one should always go longer than you think you can do. So instead of trying 60 days next time perhaps she ought to bite the bullet and go for 90. Not sure what you will be doing whilst she works on this but I'm sure you'll think of something.

The security/privacy issues around the Quiu Cellmate made it to a mainstream security site! We haven’t written about smart adult toys in a long time, but the Qiui Cellmate chastity cage was simply too interesting to pass by. We were tipped off about the adult chastity device, designed to lock-up the wearer’s appendage. There are other male chastity devices available but this is a Bluetooth (BLE) enabled lock and clamp type mechanism with a companion mobile app. The idea is that the wearer can give control of the lock to someone else. We are not in the business of kink shaming. People should be able to use these devices safely and securely without the risk of sensitive personal data being leaked.​

If any CM users use the device, I encourage you to follow the link and read the actual article.

More pertinent to this thread, the story is spreading out into mainstream twitter. I think this may be our 50 Shades of Visibility moment! We made the UK Sun!

Also spreading around other chastity sites. Maybe this'll motivate the seller to clean up their act (hope so, the concept shows huge promise).

The article made is sound like there was a security update to the API, but the device would need to be unlocked before applying the update.
