Exposure to kink and kinky things normalizes the culture. It’s a double edged sword though. I’d much rather that my neighbors not call the cops when I’m being flogged by my lady, honestly. But Fifty Shades of Whatever the Fuck brought an influx of people into the dungeons that weren’t necessarily ready for the big time. The fad seems to have worn off at this point, so I’m not so judgy about the 50 Shaders that have stuck around in the scene. They want to learn…learning is good, especially when it comes to consensually beating people with various implements.
Jenny Jaffe is one of my favorite twitterers mostly because she’s crazy witty but also because she’s super intelligent. Her writing and creativity speak for themselves and that’s why I am so excited that she turned me onto her new BDSM themed IFC series, Neurotica.
Neurotica stars Jaffe as a Dominatrix named Ivy who lives in a small town in Upstate New York. Her clients love and accept her quirky neurotic behaviors (“Mouths are Icky,” is said more than a few times throughout the series). At the same point though, they are also looking to have some of their fantasies fulfilled that Ivy can’t help with because of her mental barriers.
Enter the Megadungeon.
Mega Dungeon is to Ivy’s basement business what Walmart is to your local family owned farmer’s market. You can get the same things there, and possibly for less money, but does it make you feel warm and squishy on the inside after you leave? Probably not. (Support your local farmers and businesses whenever you can, otherwise we’ll wake up one day and they’ll all be gone.)
There is tension, sexiness and, most importantly hilarity, in each of the episodes.
My favorite scene happens in episode 4, when Ivy tops her best friend Sabrina in a role playing scene called, “Unrealistic Dog and Scared Postal Worker Fantasy.” It’s endearing to see the hoops that Ivy will go through to please her best friend, though sometimes her phobias (in this case, claustrophobia) get the best of her.
The episodes of Neurotica are less than 3 minutes long, so you can binge the whole 6 episode season in less that 20 minutes. Here’s the first one, and I suggest that you head over to IFC to stream the rest of them.
