ORIGINAL: AAkasha In my opinion, making anything a "femdom experience" has more to do with attitude than acts. Do you want to "pretend" to be the femdom while shopping, or do you want to be it? Do you want to make sure you are doing the things that "make him feel submissive" or do you want to feel empowered? People have suggested things like making him carry the bags and open doors. Vanilla men do that quite often also. Some people will suggest adding humiliation or fear play into the game -- threatening to or taking him into a ladies dressing room (with permission from staff and respect to the others present, which is tough), making him try on lingerie. But unless *you* get off on that kind of button pushing, it's not quite the same. Go back to what in your core makes you want to be dominant. What pushes your buttons? Making a mundane mall trip into a femdom experience for me could vary greatly depending on what "mood" I was in. I might make a guy keep his hair wet the entire time, because somehow that "look" was getting me hot, and I wanted to be perpetually hot. I might make him walk innocently with his hands behind his back at all times, so I could pretend he was shackled. I might go to the gourmet candy store and take the sample and turn to him and demand, "Eat this. Open your mouth," and get off on his immediate reaction. The carrying of bags and opening doors is mundane. If I want to feel empowered, I have to cater to my own lust. Akasha I think those things are only mundane if you and your partner believe they are. When Fox and I are together, there is no doubt in our minds that I am the mistress and he is the slave. He considers opening doors for me, including the car door, to be a service and carrying my bags a privilege that I can and have denied him in the past. We talk about what I wish and shop where I wish and he offers his honest opinions when I give him permission to do so. We may look mundane and even romantically silly but there is no confusion in our minds or in our language.
