facials
Hmmmmm
*Once again, Wanda Kitty steps up and onto her soap (or is it a litter?) box.
OK, if is a porn thing, and I don't watch porn, why do I like them?
Yes, I've seen some porn, but I don't think I have seen a facial in a porn movie. I know that the man ejaculating where the camera can see it is important. "See? It's real". But I suspect facials are much, much older. They are just a variation of "titty fucking", which has been around forever. A more extreme "pearl necklace."
I did read that Bukkake (which I LOVE) came from Japanese porn, as they have to "hide" the man's cock in some way, but are allowed to show semen.
But coming on your partner is not just from movies. Yes, "marking" a woman with your semen (the man cums on your face, boobs, or bottom, you let it dry and wear it) is a D/s thing, (I happen to have practiced that as well) and I'm sure there is all kinds of interesting psych and sociology behind it. And when at university, we wore his pin, his jacket? That kind of "marking property" is different how? "Because it's yucky SEMEN!"?
So? I happen to like semen. Maybe it is popular because I know people who find semen disgusting. "It comes from the same place urine does, it's nasty, I'll never put that in my mouth!" - I have heard other women say all this. Cum in your mouth? What about swallowing? Not likely.
So what is done to show acceptance, even enjoyment of the taste and feel of a man's semen? We celebrate it, feed on it, (suck it down and swallow it) wear it and enjoy it. I rub it into my boobs. A facial. On boobs, ass or whatnot.
Bukkake, intense facials are among the most intense, rich, sensual, sexual experiences I have ever had. But I have always done it voluntarily. No one should ever be forced. That is sexual slavery. About the same as "ethnic cleansing"
You can go too far with reading comparisons between humans and animals. When Leigh brushes my hair, (something else I love) she is expressing affection, not practicing animalistic grooming rituals.
Is perfume our way of putting our scent on another to mark them? Look up the history of lipstick. It is about women drawing attention to our mouths. Why? We are attracting others by comparing our mouths to the redness of our "other lips" is the basic psycho- social reason. That the term "lipstick lesbian" is used in describing a sex positive feminist such as myself is very telling.
Besides, the argument that it just objectifies women ignores that a lot of us do it because we LIKE IT. And more importantly, it ignores the woman on woman form of the practice, called "glazing", (Self explanatory, I hope)and that gay men do it to one another as well.
If you find it repulsive, disgusting, or what ever, that's your choice.
If I don't? MY CHOICE. Women like Wendy Shalit and Ariel Levy do NOT speak for me.
But please don't drag out the "demeaning to women" point. I know lesbians who will not allow themselves to be penetrated vaginally in any fashion. Period. No toys, no tampons, not even fingers. Speculums? No. They have never ever had a "well woman" check up, a pap smear. "It's symbolic of man's historical demeaning and rape of women."
What IS demeaning to women?
During my last New Orleans Carnival, standing on a blacony, flashing my body, having fun, collecting beads as I have done a thousand times before, and hearing more vitriol than ever before. "Show it bitch" is becoming the standard yell, replacing the simple "show your tits" What else?
A woman is forced into porn or prostitution, things like forced marriage, "honor killings" sexual mutilation, archaic property laws, and the real, not symbolic subjugation and enslavement of women in our world.
*WW re-sheaths her claws*
It is my choice, I do it because I like it.
