Ugh, that is disheartening. Maybe it is because I am older and have a lower BS tolerance. However, I never saw anyone as my enemy.

I am Domina of the World! Source: My butt. (It's a nice butt.)

I've just returned from a Halloween walk in Parc de Saint-Cloud, which was awful. Sigh. The Christmas walk was magical. This was Spirit Halloween clearance level. Halloween has not quite made it here.

It's not a thing in Romania either. You would think it would be with the whole Dracula thing. I live about 40 minutes from the castle and you wouldn't even know it was Halloween here.

Look up the name in ICANN:

This gives you a mailing address:
Kalkofnsvegur 2, Reykjavik, Capital Region, 101, IS

If you google this mailing address you get lots of warnings including a link to an interesting article in the NY Times, with a picture of the building:

I'd be careful about visiting the femdom-awards page if you don't have the latest patches in your browser you may may catch something nasty.

Whoa. Good work

Having Withheld for Privacy doesn't necessarily mean everyone who uses it is sketchy. It just makes it easier for sketchy people to remain sketchy.

But, I do agree with being careful. I'm always suspicious about things with no name behind them. Even though there was apparently a FemDom Awards last year and there are photos of known people with actual awards.

"Withheld for Privacy doesn't necessarily mean everyone who uses it is sketchy..."
Absolutely agree! I do it with my websites, domina.ms does it...
But we associate with different partners.

Maybe femdom-awards are just naive about whom they work with..
I'd be very happy if I were wrong!
But if your address is "Kalkofnsvegur 2" the burden of proof is on your side.

(Funny enough, I stood in front of this building just this summer. It's at an intersection you cannot avoid as tourist in Reykjavik)

Well, it looks like they used namecheap as their registrar. Who handles privacy protection is the registrar's decision. So, femdom-awards.com guilt is having used (icky) namecheap. Popular because they're, well, cheap. (I had a bad experience with them years ago and don't recommend them.)

I'm more suspicious of the lack of transparency about who the heck is running this operation. How do we know it isn't the people receiving the awards? Is this another Dominatrix Hall of Fame?

It's always a combination of different red flags, agree!

What is "Dominatrix Hall of Fame"? And why aren't we in it? lol
