While offering a crucial account of the marketing and funding structures underpinning the event, Pyne also offers an interesting index of the kinds of consumer attracted to the event (stratified along several cinematic subcultures that include cross-over neo-burlesque fans, early cinema fanatics, London gay community members and burlesque performers).

As Perks notes, ‘in the FTM porn film we learn that transmen prefer to handle their clitoris differently, they “jill off” exactly as if they were handling a miniature penis’. Through these scenes, as well as a range of vignettes in which Buck Angel is represented as both ‘penetrator and penetrated’, the performer’s works point to the plurality of subjectivity positions at play within his narratives. In an important expansion of these debates, Perks draws on psychoanalytic notions such as the archaic mother to explore pre-Oedipal alignments between Angel’s character and the ‘Black Queen’ depicted in Richard Kimmel’s avant-garde Schwarzwald (2007), which both the author and the star discuss in the accompanying interview.

Noting a repeated pattern of infantilisation of the male submissive by the female dominatrix, Barrett argues that with the ‘kind of language used in dominatrix porn, “little girl”, “bad body” and so forth, the power relationship that is performed is close to that of mother and child’. This familial matrix is further confirmed by ‘enforced’ thumb-sucking, spanking and other regressive activities that Dom narratives focus on, leading Barrett to conclude that the female dominatrix reproduces the figure of the phallically empowered pre-Oedipal mother, who is able to oscillate between the figures of ‘gentle mummy, then cruel matriarch’.
