What I love about Dita Von Teese as a model is her ability and interest to reference the past—particularly American cultural history as it relates to the sexploitation/fetish era, which means both burlesque and what was then, in the 1950s, labeled as "bizarre," now simply called fetish.
Most often she's still referred to as a burlesque performer because the term "burlesque" in post-porn America has taken on a soft, even sweet, connotation; while "fetish"— still being associated with some form of mental illness, possibly Devil worship, in the minds of some—summons all sorts of mass market disapproval.
But for anyone familiar with the history of sexploitation/fetish artifacts, it's obvious to see where her real talent lies....

It's not scary. It's just play-acting. All "femdom" is that way. Just roleplay: as in "Okay, today I'm the top, you're the bottom." ;)

I really do get it. ( but, uhm,....no really,...its a more PERSONAL psychological response,.....SHE,...in particular, sort of scares me. She probably has strong thespian genes or something,....those thespian girls tend to sort of scare me,....I sort of get over it with personal prolonged exposure,......uhm,.....unless it proves justified. Those "stage folk" can have more than a hint of madness . )
