New Article: Whither Bondage In The Mainstream Media?


Pamela Anderson makes an ordinary damsel in distress scene from her television series V.I.P. look like glamor bondage. What ever happened to these lighthearted scenes? Image source: vidcap from Damsel Land.com, where you can find many of the more light-hearted damsel in distress scenes. Check 'em out!

Some fans over on Brians Page put up some posts a few days ago about the fact that they're losing interest in mainstream bondage scenes because they've become too dark and violent. The sense of lighthearted fun that characterized damsel in distress scenes in mainstream media is gone. It's gone largely because you no longer know that damsel in distress are safe, with TV's emphasis on dark edgy dramas leading to them being beaten, tortured, raped and murdered, and an increasing tendency to let the viewer watch.

Seems a lot of bondage fans really don't care for that sort of thing. So I wondered in what direction mainstream media are moving and wrote an article about it for Bondagerotica: you can check it out here.
