Researching The Sheik made me realize how much the contemporary criticism of the book and film echoed modern criticism of the books and films of the Twlight saga and Fifty Shades, mostly for reflecting the masochistic fantasies of women. ContraPoints, aka Natalie Wynn, has posted a video exploring the Twilight series and the issues of hetero female masochism.
Every so often, high fashion borrows from fetishism. For Fall/Winter 2024, it’s all about gimp masks/hoods, as shown in this Hypebae article.
Maxim Lupin has a video on the History of Trans Men in the Leather Community.
The Betwixt the Sheets podcast interviews the authors of the new book Kink in the Rennaissance, who have a lot to say about defining “kink” in history.
The Dirty Sexy History podcast has one episode on the myths attached to corsetry, and another on the history of adult toys.
The student news site of the Iowa’s Grinnell College covers the Kink Gardner event, which was previously run by SHIC (Student Health Information Center) and is now run by QPOC (Queer People of Color) to make it more race and gender inclusive.

CSI S04E05 “Fur and Loathing”: The Celluloid Dungeon

Celluloid Dungeon No Responses »

Mar 142024

The notorious “Fur and Loathing” (aired October 30, 2003) episode of CSI is supposed to be about the furry subculture, but it actually demonstrates the investigative procedural’s particular view of sexuality and identity.

A routine traffic accident leads Grissom and Willows to what they at first think is a coyote but is actually a dead man in a raccoon fur suit. This leads to PAFCon (Plushies and Furries Convention), which the deceased, Robert Pitt, attended.

Roman Scandals (1933): The Celluloid Dungeon

Celluloid Dungeon 5 Responses »

Jan 252024

Roman Scandals is a 1933 American musical comedy, pre-Hays Code film. Eddie Cantor stars as Eddie, an oddball handyman in the present-day, corruptly governed town of West Rome. Without explanation, Eddie is transported back to ancient Rome and gets tangled up in a plot to kill the corrupt Emperor.

For our purposes, it’s noteworthy for two of the musical set-pieces, both designed by Busby Berkeley, famed for his production numbers involving vast arrays of women in identical, often fetishistic costumes.

The first is an elaborate dance number set at the Roman slave market. Women, naked but for long blonde wigs, are chained to walls. Other, brunette women do synchronized dances in scanty outfits on a tiered display like a giant wedding cake. Reptilian-looking men in the crowd eye the captive women. One of the brunette women is dragged to the top of the display, and then jumps off and dies, ending the number.

Police Woman S03E21 “Bondage”: The Celluloid Dungeon

Celluloid Dungeon No Responses »

Jan 152024

Police Woman S03E21 “Bondage”, aired March 1, 1977, dir. Arnold Laven, wri. Irv Pearlberg & Frank Telford

Police Woman was a 1974-1978 cop show that starred Angie Dickinson as Sgt. “Pepper” Anderson, set in Los Angeles. Episode “Bondage” involved Pepper infiltrating the porn industry.

The opening scene is set in an old-timey looking room, with a woman tied up by the wrists, standing. A maid (in a completely ahistorical uniform) comes in to help her “Countess”. (The background sound of a camera whirring betrays that this is a performance.) A man in period-ish wig comes in, dismisses the maid, and rips the back of the Countess’ nighgown. (No actual nudity, of course.)

KFS (Kinky Fetish Sex) TV has a couple of interesting videos.
- Tim Woodward talks about the history of UK fetish magazine Skin Two
- A documentary about the 1992 Skin Two Rubber Ball
The micro-controversy over the “Conservative Dad’s Real Women of America 2024 Calendar” (showing conservative women in mild pinup poses or casual outfits) shows a fracture line in modern conservatism. The divide is between anti-porn neo-puritans on one side, and libertarian-hedonists on the other. The phrase “real women” in the title is the giveaway that both sides are anti-trans.
The Gay News Ephemera tumblr has a couple of scans from Christopher Street
- A 1979 pamphlet urging peaceful protests against the filming of William Friedkin’s film Crusing (1980).
- A 1979 editorial providing context about the filming of Cruising.
Just found there’s a film biography of Percy Grainger, an Australian composer who was also involved in BDSM in the early 20th century, called Passion (1999).
