ABOUT A KINK
Each month Mestra will look at a popular kink. This month it is – BOOTBLACKING
Bootblack can be defined as ‘one who shines shoes’, but that hardly does this particular kink justice, particularly in light of the enthusiasm we witnessed at our recent Bootblacking skillshare.
Bootblacking (as a kink/fetish) seems to have it’s roots in leather and military culture. It includes the cleaning and shining of leather (particularly boots) and can also include sensory play, impact play, spitting, licking, boot worship, stockings, biting, leather fetish, the smell and taste of the polish, protocols, rituals and service.
Here are a couple of things I learnt:-
– there are international Bootblack competitions
– the act and art of bootblacking is not just for submissives, but can also be practiced as a Dominant.
– polish comes in a variety of brands and qualities and can be reheated if it starts to dry out and crack.
– water, spit, or even pee can be used as part of the bootblacking experience.
– Bootblacks take their bootblacking kit very seriously.
– The bootblack has the opportunity to position the receivers feet and legs in a variety of different ways including on their chest, breasts or spread apart.
– Pre-negotiaion is incredibly important
– There is a lot more skill and knowledge required than I’d anticipated.
– Boot lacing can be an art/kink as well.
We will be looking to post some links in the webinar section to provide more information for those interested. If you have more to add or have experiences to share, please drop me a message.
