I know I was shocked that 'The Secretary' was shown on basic cable here  -- but when I happened to see it, it was in the evenng on channel with a 'rep' for being 'adult content'.
 
But Lifetime  -- the queen of cheesy chick-fliks channel -- just ran a movie adaptiion of "The Story of O'   here during the day.  I didn't get to watch it myself cuz I hadda run out, damnit, but I can't imagine it's not going to have a plot from the book by the same name.
 
Everyone knew it was a 'sick, twisted' book back in the day, like the works of Marquis de Sade  So I have to ask myself, what the f**k?
 
Maybe we are more accepted.and known about by 'society at large' than we here into D/s sometimes suspect.  Maybe we're just considered and rejected' as an option for expressing the average joe's  sex life.. Apparently not every man is into bjs, after all.  Some find it a big snooze I guess.
 
This community recently had one of the politicos swept up for jail in Ohio was 'discovered' to have had 'sado-masochist' porn on his home pc.  The newspaper here ran stories about it -- you'd think he'd been caught slaughtering chickens or something. The DA wanted to back out of his plea agreement, for the love of Mike, even though if I recall this guy was caught embezzling, not sexally harrassing other workers, etc.
 
I'm going to suspend belief till I happen to hear  'vanilla' people' in Cleveland commenting on the movie "The Story of O' -- I'll keep you guys posted.  What happens in Cleveland stays in Cleveland, however.-- I'd be interested in hearing what your 'community standards' about 'what's obsence' may have changed to suit those of us 'into D/s'.

As Horrible a job as they did converting the Book to a Movie..... Don't you remember Exit to Eden?

Truth of the Matter is Female Empowerment Movies have always been accepted and I am sure people saw the Story of O as a Woman who goes from being Property to being a Mistress and the rest of it gets ignored into the idea of Female Empowerment.

This doesn't surprise me at all..... Now when they show Caligula (The Hustler Version) on Prime Time Basic Cable then I will be Shocked.
