What's in a name? That which we call...Dominatrix Mermaid


I feel like I should address the name of my blog: Dominatrix Mermaid. 

It all stemmed from this one swimsuit I have had for a couple of seasons from Target. When I put it on I said aloud to myself, ‘I feel like a dominatrix mermaid’ and voilà.


First of all, I would like to make known that my obsession with mermaids runs deep.  Mermaids  are majestic creatures of folklore who embody grace, beauty and seduction.

I believe it is important for women to embrace their sensuality and chalk it up to a sense of empowerment. This is not to say women are to solely be viewed as sex objects. I would not call myself a feminist because I don’t believe women are equal to men - I believe women are superior to men :)

By any other name would smell as sweet
