Il vantaggio

L’uomo è colui che desidera, la donna è colei che è desiderata. Questo è il solo ma decisivo vantaggio della donna. Tramite le sue passioni, la natura ha consegnato l’uomo nelle mani della donna, e la donna che non sa come fare di lui il suo oggetto, il suo schiavo, il suo giocattolo, che non sa come tradirlo con un sorriso, or della fine non è saggia.
Leopold von Sacher-Masoch

Cosa cercano le mistress?

C'era una volta lo schiavo tuttofare ma oggi sembra fuori moda, è caduto in disgrazia, ci sono frotte di schiavetti tuttofare a spasso disoccupati. In un mondo iperspecializzato anche le richieste delle mistress sono sempre più mirate (beninteso lo schiavo generoso e benestante va sempre di moda, magari gli si cambia nome chiamandolo moneyslave ma la sostanza che genera appeal resta quella di un grosso conto in banca, una grande villa sul mare, un grosso yacht).
Sarà la crisi e il ritorno al baratto certo è che da una veloce ricerca su google si trovano padrone che cercano avvocati, muratori, fotografi, webmaster, cuochi nutrizionisti e chissà che altro. In pratica tu mi ripari la lavatrice e io ti frusto.
A quando l'agenzia per il (sub)lavoro interinale retribuito in lividi&ceffoni? Giuslavorista schiavo cercasi.

PS per la mistress dell'avvocato: penalista o civilista?

Le donne cane di Malena Mazza

Un connubio fra moda, design, corpo, arte arredamento e mondo animale: Malena Mazza, bolognese di nascita e milanese di adozione, un passato come aiuto regista di Antonioni e dei fratelli Taviani prima di seguire la propria passione per la fotografia, presenta così le sue "Donne cane" in mostra a Milano dal 23 aprile al 31 giugno a Magic Moment (via Fiori Chiari 3).



Fotografa di moda e artista, Malena Mazza propone "donne così protagoniste e sicure che possono anche permettersi il lusso di scegliere di essere oggetto". Trasformandosi così "da padrone di casa in sofisticate donne cane". Il tutto giocato sul filo dell'erotismo e della provocazione.

Spanking 'brings couples together'

It might not look like fun, but spanking can make couples closer

New Scientist
30 March 2009

SPANKING is stressful at first, but it could bring consenting couples closer together. That's the implication of two studies of hormonal changes associated with sadomasochistic (S&M) activities including spanking, bondage and flogging.

Brad Sagarin at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb and colleagues measured levels of the stress hormone cortisol in 13 men and women at an S&M party in Arizona, before, during and after participating in activities. During S&M scenes, cortisol rose significantly in those receiving stimulation, but dropped back to normal within 40 minutes if the scene went well. There was no change in those inflicting the activity.

At an S&M event in Colorado, testosterone was measured in 45 men and women. It increased significantly in receiving women only. Donatella Marazziti of the University of Pisa, Italy, says the boost may help women cope with the aggressive nature of S&M activities, or that it could be another sign of stress. In both studies, couples who said the party went well also reported increases in relationship closeness (Archives of Sexual Behavior, DOI: 10.1007/s10508-008-9374-5).

It's important to note that levels of both hormones dropped back down in couples who enjoyed the experience, Marazziti says. "When sexual intercourse is consensual it is not stressful - even if it is extreme sex."

Richard Wiseman, a psychologist at the University of Hertfordshire in Hatfield, UK, adds that almost any shared activity is likely to promote interpersonal closeness. "It doesn't have to be tying up your partner or placing clamps on their nipples, it could be something as simple as cooking a meal together or even doing the housework as a duo," he says.

Nick Neave, a psychologist at the University of Northumbria, UK, says the results are interesting, but future studies should control for whether participants experienced orgasm, which is associated with reduced stress and an increase in hormones associated with partner-bonding and affection.

Patricia Waller, sadomaso all'uncinetto

Sado/Maso: Yarn, polystyrene, wire, wood; crochet, 10 parts, size variable; 2000

Patricia Waller’s career has grown steadily over the years. Today she’s a consummate artist still living in Karlsruhe, Germany where her first solo show some sixteen years ago began to provoke interest in her work.
It is a divine gift when an artist has an intense identification with a theme, a technique or a specific material. Or perhaps it stems from an artistic instinct. Either way, Patricia Waller picked up her woolen yarn and crochet needles early on. Can we, therefore, add her to an elaborate list of a multitude of women artists who use clothing and needlework or recreate a multi-faceted feminine world?


Exhibition at Gallery Deschler until 25/07/2009
Patricia Waller calls her new exhibition „Bad Luck“. Bad luck in-
deed! The falling flower pot struck an unsuspecting head, a dog
got his head stuck in a food can, another one was flattened by an
oversized bone. But not all of the objects depict cases of merely
passive bad luck, a lot exhibit a very active malice: Miss Piggy
stuck in the meat grinder, Bambi hacked to pieces, Bugs Bunny
speared by an enormous fork, Tweety in the soup, the cut-off
thumbs of thumb-sucker Conrad. The figures in these works –
anthropomorphized animals – span a historic selection, from fairy
tales to the 19th-century Struwwelpeter (Slovenly Peter) and fur-
ther to modern comics and Disney creatures. All, however, experi-
ence violence, and a lot of blood is shed. Waller’s crocheted fig-
ures raise discomforting questions regarding the way our society
deals with violence: the violence we experience, the violence we
exert, and the violence we love to consume. The viewer is torn
between malevolent gloating over the misfortunes of others and
empathy, between the pleasures of destruction – who hasn’t
wished for the wolf to finally devour Little Red Riding Hood? – and
compassion for these symbols of the helplessness we all experi-
ence in the face of destiny. The nature of the depicted violence as
internal and controlled by our drives is indicated by the impassive
faces of the tortured creatures. Like in comic strips and cartoons,
they rise again in a Sisyphus-like manner after each catastrophe,
only to face the next inevitable disaster, pitilessly to the tune of
that old maxim: “The show must go on.”
