There are those
out there that still see England as a green and pastoral
land, filled with sexually repressed people who are at their
happiest discussing the weather whilst listening to Test
Match Special on Radio 4. Just once in a while though,
something comes along which shakes those views to their very
foundation. Allow me to introduce you to Mistress Sidonia
Von Bork and The English Mansion.
An
independently run BDSM site that approaches many
areas of the genre with intelligence and a serious approach,
this is a site for serious fans of the genre. This probably
isn't the place to start if you're looking to ease yourself
into the genre gently, you would probably be better off
starting with something a bit tamer. But for fervent
followers, this is a remarkable site that is one that you
should really take seriously.
The videos
are split in to 5 different areas - dungeon, barracks,
boudoir, clinic and office, with the photo
galleries also arrive in many different types of BDSM
content. Mistress Sidonia stars in many of the galleries and
videos herself, but there are fairly regular accompanying or
stand-alone appearances by other mistresses too. Mistress
Sidonia shows no sign of standing aside though as this site
grows, with her personal touches including regular diary and
forum posts regarding her members' questions.
It's this
attention to detail and general fine touches (even extending
to letting you know what time of the day the daily updates
will go live depending on where you are in the world) that
immediately impress you about The English Mansion.
But of
course, it's the actual action that is the main talking
point here, and what an absolute treat The English Mansion
is. The action is expertly performed with the occasional
pinch of black humour with photo galleries imaginatively
used to tell a story rather than just be a set of poses.
The
presentation of the site is also worthy of the highest
praise. The videos download really quickly and are very
user-friendly in their organisation. The categorisation of
the content is fabulous, whilst the use of a symbol key
system that tells you exactly what to expect from each
video is invaluable and I bloody well wish that every site
would use it. The general information and background here is
wonderful too - it's a real education if you want to learn
about the subject, and you really couldn't have a better
teacher.
It is
slightly more expensive than many sites out there, but
rarely will you see one that so completely lives up to its
worth. The English Mansion isn't BDSM content knocked
out by a network who just wanted to have a bondage site on
their books - this is bondage by people who know exactly
what they're doing for people who know exactly what they
want.
You even get
a guide on how to become one of Mistress Sidonia's
slaves. It has all angles covered!
