Is it any accident that Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin both had an obvious femdom appeal in addition to their portfolio as effective, and strong, female politicians? We think not.
Hence it’s no accident that Michele Bachmann has surged to the top tier of Republican Party candidates in the U.S. presidential nomination fight.
Bachmann’s previous comments about “wifely submissiveness” have drawn attention, and some fire, from feminists, and rightly so. But taking them in context, we don’t think it’s a show-stopper.
And it’s clear that Bachmann is the power in her family, given her career — and, what’s more, is aware of her own appeal as a dominatrix figure, and uses it — both to overcome the traditional image of women as soft, and to reach out to that 80 percent or more of the male population that is latently submissive.
The fact that she, like Palin, is attracting support in the more traditional/conservative U.S. GOP only adds to her potential to help build the Cruellan Revolution.
1. Jennifer Lopez. Her destruction of Marc Anthony began more than a year ago, but the last few weeks have been especially enjoyable for those who enjoy a good public humiliation. J-Lo’s ride on top of this male ponyboy continues, and probably isn’t over yet.
2. Angelina Jolie dominatrix. Angelina’s disciplining of Brad Pitt for becoming a boring slave through pot-smoking would normally have put her at #1. Only a strong crack of the whip by J-Lo has resigned Jolie, for now, to the still-coveted second spot.
4. Jane Fonda. Dispensing advice on senior living, including sex (the source of femdom power), in her aptly titled new book Prime Time. It used to be that women over 40 years old needed a special category to dominate the male mind. Now they’re on top as well (see Helen Mirren, above.)
5. Michele Bachmann. “Queen of rage,” raves Newsweek, and after victory in a U.S. straw poll in Iowa, a major player in power politics. Naturally we didn’t care for those 2006 “submissive” comments raised prominently in a recent Republican Party debate. But as long as she’s dominating Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney, she’s femdom enough for Celebrity Dominatrix.
6. Melissa Febos. Her book Whip Smart captures the public eye and at once explains and demonstrates the growing rise of womanity — witness, e.g., her recent ABC interview, here.
7. Claudia Schiffer. Apparently feeling left out as the fashion world surges onto the Age of Femdom, Claudia graces the cover of German Vogue with a combination Catwoman and Mistress T. (See image nearby, with Claudia’s Vogue cover on top, Cindy Crawford — # 11 on our countdown — somewhat tired Bazaar image underneath.)
8. Cameron Diaz. Slipping a little as she plays nursemaid to the fast-fading Alex Rodriguez, but A-Rod is so lame, you almost have to hold him up to punch him.
9. Anne Hathaway. It only takes one publicity photo of her as Catwoman to vault Anne Hathaway into the Celebrity Dominatrix Top 10. Catwoman is that powerful, Anne Hathaway is that powerful, and the soft leather suit, criticized by some, looks good to us.
10. Cindy Crawford dominatrix. The Bazaar cover nearby seems a little less than riveting, but it’s a hopeful step in the right direction.
And the next ten:
11. Lady Gaga. How many of those Twitter followers are male submissives? Hard to say, but we’d like to see a poll.
12. Katie Holmes dominatrix. Still in the Top 20 on the strength of an uber-sexy Vogue España shoot. We liked her as Lola to Tom Cruise’s submissive Joe Hardy in their charity benefit recreation of “Whatever Lola wants” from Damn Yankees. But she needs to take a page from some of the celebrity femdoms above and assert her rule over Tommyboy more affirmatively and publicly.
13. Rihanna. Quietly establishing herself as a regular presence in the Femdom Power Rankings, with occasional trips to the #1 spot.
14. Britney Spears. A relatively quiet August so far as the Femme Fatale tour continues. But we expect big things from Britney at the MVT Video Music Awards (August 28), as you can see from our post previewing the VMAs, and looking over their femdom history, here.
15. Nicki Minaj. Fingers crossed that she’ll be part of what could be an epic performance at the VMAs this month. Minaj is widely credited with “raising the bar” for the whole Britney Spears tour, and rightly so.
16. Taylor Momsen dominatrix. Celebrates her birthday fortnight by pulling a Delilah, shaving the head of one of her crew members. What will she cut off next?
17. Kate Beckinsale. Total Recall is shooting and set for 2012 summer release. But you can expect some publicity-minded photo leaks from the set at any time.
18. Katy Perry dominatrix. Another celebrity femdom to keep your eye on come August 28 (the VMAs).
19. Kate Moss dominatrix. Quiet much of this year, but we liked her Gatsbyesque wedding shoot in the summer of Midnight in Paris.
20. Megan Fox. Back to work, Megan. Vagina Power likes to be used. Don’t worry: It’s like riding a bicycle.

Maya Fox has already pretty much taken over Clips4Sale.
Now she’s out to dominate America and the world— and you, of course.
Find out what founding-femdom Maya has in store as we post part 2 of our profile of a woman who probably would have put Thomas Jefferson in a CBT (after he signed over control of his estates, of course).
Morgan Fairchild’s appearances on Search for Tomorrow (see captures, left) brought her the attention of New York television and Hollywood movie producers alike.
She played Jennifer, a confident, scheming girl who knew how to get what she wants with a gun or just a smile, but often, both.
Already visible was the knowing Fairchild sneer, with which she seemed to regard both women and men — but especially men — rather like a piece of sushi… something she could consume at any time at her caprice.
Essentially, it was a vixen-vitale version of many of Fairchild’s later roles, from Flamingo Road to Time Bomb, which made her the femme fatale fetish icon of a generation.
Like so many males, the Search for Tomorrow role was only one of several stepping stones under Fairchild’s lovely heels. We’ll review some others in part 3 as our Morgan Fairchild dominatrix series continues.
LIKE SO MANY Disney-style brats gone bad, Lindsay Lohan morphed from lovable twin to worn-out cliche by the time she was old enough to be tried outside of juvie. At least, that is the facile criticism leveled by flash-poppers and e-zine critics — none of whom, come to think of it, have as much talent as Lohan does in her toenail clippings. Welcome to pop modernity.
In fact, however, she’s demonstrated a real resiliency, and more than a little spunk, in recent years. We’re prepared to say Ms. Lohan is becoming one of our favorite girlydoms this side of Megan “whoever has the vagina is in charge” Fox.
Here’s five reasons we just adore femme-dominatrix Lindsay Lohan:
# 1. It’s trendy to trash her.
For our money, she’s nevertheless made mostly good choices about the movies she makes — Mean Girls is a classic — and accepts the weasels she has to deal with graciously. “It’s flattering that people want to know so much about me and want to take the time to make up that many things about me.”
Nor does she engage in that now-fashionable Hollywood pastime of bashing others to deflect attention from herself. Compared to Britney Spears unfavorably as another pop star allegedly falling apart, Lohan stuck to her guns. “How can you not like Britney Spears?” Similarly:
# 2. She doesn’t take herself too seriously.
We loved Lohan’s femme fatale pose on the cover of Radar Online (upper right) several summers ago, poking fun at herself by modeling with tommy-guns and other instruments of death while declaring war on the paparazzi that have hounded her since her Parent Trap days. At the same time, it was dead sexy — a Denise Richards hairdo together with a bit more saucy attitude and taut legs and tush.
And if you thought the cover was hot, you should watch the video of the shoot. Lohan vamps as if she’s quite at home with the gun, and seems quite comfortable with the idea of dispatching multiple males.
Also with Radar’s permission, we’re posting a clip of the video to the left, and will archive it against the possibility that the YouTube Nazis later decide it doesn’t merit space on their prestigious and intellectually rigorous site. (Constantly plagued by the vagaries of YouTube, we’ll do our best to keep these videos up and running.)
# 3. She dates well.
According to multiple reports, Lohan’s latest love interest is supermodel Indrani — half of the respected lens duo of Markus Klinko and Indrani. Indrani, 36, is un homme serieux, a Princeton grad, and a young lady with serious political and social ideas. Leave it to Fox News to belittle the Indrani as Lohan’s “cougar girlfriend,” but we think its a nice match.
And as the matchup also suggests…
# 4. She doesn’t need men.
As she reportedly told a friend who works at one of entertainment shows, “men are superfluous.” All the more reason, of course, why so many men find her irresistible. The male species always wants what it can’t have, and what it can’t have, since the invention of modern birth control, high heels, cock-lock devices, and stockings, is woman.
This reprise (see right) of the classic Bardot pose from Lohan’s 2006 shoot says it all — the pantyhose, the crossed arms and legs. Everything combines to block male access and frustrate the male orgasm, or at least, rework it into a useful tool for use by intelligent females.
# 5. She enjoys herself. BMFD.
A world with more Lindsay Lohans would be a world with more beauty, more parties, and more servile males, serving at the feet of the beautiful women who are partying on top of the servile males.
In the words of Paul McCartney, “and what’s wrong with that?”
