My possibly overly-judgemental feelings. But first, two bits of context:


  • There are recovery groups for findom clients (or victims). You don't find that anywhere else in femdom, for the most part. If there's a foot fetish anonymous, I haven't found it. But there ARE such groups for clients and former clients of findom. The language they use often reminds me of 1. recovering alcoholics and drug addicts, and 2. victims of spousal abuse. The language makes it clear something isn't right in parts of this activity. Those in recovery are traumatized.
  • Go find yourself a forum that's focused on, for example, camgirls, or strippers. I've read some, and find that discussion of how to be a findom is very common. These girls are major hustlers, and they're interested in findom as a quick hustle. The toxic language use and contempt with which they discuss clients is pretty eye-opening.


So, putting those things together, you'll understand why my basic impression is that much (not all) of findom is an absolute cesspool, of clients who are often addicted to the point of being self-destructive, and the toxic repulsive women who seek them out to exploit them.

Note, that doesn't mean I don't think findom play can be a healthy form of femdom. I've met any number of dommes who add it in responsibly. But to me, there isn't a split between femdom and findom. There's no femdom/findom split. The split is within findom itself. Some methods of findom are practiced responsibly and can be the healthy celebration of female domination that any other femdom practice is. And some methods of femdom are exploitative and toxic, basically the worst toxic people seeking out, manipulating, and exploiting men who aren't in control of themselves.
