Have I mentioned to you lately that visiting Male Submission Art makes me happy every time?

‘Here,’ it says to me, ‘look, how beautiful. Porn that lights your fire! Thoughts that are close to your heart! Every post a message in a bottle from other humans who are sexually wired like you and your beloved, who cherish what you cherish.’

I just wanted to thank you. I am a young woman and even though I’ve known I was submissive for quite a while, I’ve had a hard time reconciling that with my strong personality. Your comments, though, have inspired me to go looking for a dom willing to work as hard for me as I’ll work for them. I’m pretty sure you’ve changed my life for the better and I sincerely appreciate it. Thank you.

[...] of those opportunities I want to pursue is continuing to develop the MaleSubmissionArt.com project. It began at the start of this year because there was a depressing lack of respectful erotic imagery of submissive masculinity. Today, [...]

Thanks, Freddy. I'm glad you find the site inspirational! To suggest images to me for MaleSubmissionArt.com, you can do one of many things: you can suggest photos directly from the site, you can send in an email, or you can suggest links on Delicious.com

Congratulations on your site, I am so happy to have run across you and your ideas about eroticism. I have been trudging through porn for years hoping for something new and exciting and I think I have just found it. Well done.

I presently have my own site but I am in the process of abandoning it in favor of producing original digital artwork. Unlike yourself, I am not so much about the representation of vulnerable men but the body language of dominant women and the visual aspects of story telling.

I have a funny feeling we will have a lot to talk about…again, congratulation on your site. I have been looking for something like this forever. I would love to send you a few images that you might find interesting…and as soon as I figure out how to do that I will.

Thanks so much, cheers.

Thanks so much for starting malesubmissionart.com.
I love the images of men tied to a bed with a woman teasing him. I know you have some issues with whether to include these images, but I’m glad you occasionally post them.

Cheers!

Just wanted to thank you for your honest and thoughtful site. There was a definite need for this; the exploration and the validation. I will be passing by regularly from now on. Such breath-taking beauty, how could I resist?

I’ve noticed that trans men (like myself) tend not to be included in collections of erotic photos of men, regardless of the other subject matter. It’s nice to see a truly trans-inclusive erotica collection which doesn’t rely on othering trans men, or painting us as “not really men.”

Interestingly, as a “cisgendered” man but not one that fits within traditional models of masculinity, I’ve been called “not a real man” more often than I’d like to remember. I was not explicitly thinking about transgendered individuals when I wrote that line, but I certainly had in my mind the idea that nontraditional masculinities, which I believe can be embodied by many kinds of people who identify themselves as the one of many genders commonly referred to as “male”, should be included. In other words, I was trying to write something that would be inclusive of myself. :)

I think this is quite a cool thing because it’s certainly a lesson in the power of language to be inviting or exclusionary. Go semantics!

We showcase beautiful imagery where men and other male-identified people are submissive subjects.

This is the line that got my attention. I’ve noticed that trans men (like myself) tend not to be included in collections of erotic photos of men, regardless of the other subject matter.
