sb: Mistress Natalie, thank You VERY much for this exclusive interview for dickie virgin. Please tell us a little about your background.Where are you originally from?

MN: I'm a native New Yorker, born and raised in Queens. Since my first solo trip to the city, at 13, I knew where I wanted to live. I went to college in New Paltz, and spent my college years commuting to Manhattan on weekends to work. I moved to Greenwich Village permanently once I graduated.

sb: How Were You introduced to The Scene?

MN: I never would have sought out a career in Domination. College was preparing me for a more vanilla life. During my first year, a high school friend told me she was working in a role-play house. I was intrigued. I started hanging out with her at work on the weekends. I sat around, talked to the girls, inquired about sessions, asked for demonstrations of equipment, and tried on costumes. The owner asked me if I wanted to work for her.

Being shy at the time and in school two hours away, I declined her repeated requests. My declination did not stop me from spending all my extra time there. Finally on spring break, I took her offer to do a session. The client wanted two young girls to dominate him.

My friend and I embarked on my first professional S&M experience. I don't remember all the details, but I do remember the rush of excitement it gave me. I also remember my friend asking if I had done it before. When I insisted I hadn't, which was true, she could not believe it. She wanted to know how I knew what to do and how I was so creative. All I could say was it just felt natural. That was the beginning.

From that day on, I have been a professional Dominatrix. I have come a long way in the past eight-and-a-half years. I am now very secure in my position as a Dominatrix and love the power and control.

sb: i can sure see that! Where did You start Professionally?

MN: I got my start at Village Fantasies. I was there because my friend was there. I did not know of any other places. This was not something I went looking for. I soon became disgusted with the owners business practices, lack of personal hygiene and complete disregard for sanitary conditions and left.

After several interviews at local dungeons I started working for Ms. Nikki at Eastside Dungeon. The place was clean, equipped, and the girls were all very well trained. I knew I could learn a lot.

sb: Oh yes i know what a great place Mistress Nikki has. This might seem like a dumb question because You look so forceful and authoritative to me, but were you ever submissive?

MN: I think that a lot of women in this industry are scared to answer this question honestly. They are so caught up in the life as a Domme that would never admit to playing the submissive. When I first entered this scene I worked at Village Fantasies.

This was not a strict S&M house but rather a house of role-play. When I started I was very curious and very excited by the whole scene. I did all kinds of sessions including domme, switch, sub, fetishes and role-play. None of the sessions were particularly heavy. They were more fantasy. I never took any heavy corporal punishment, but I did play the sub. I actually cherish these sessions. They gave me a taste for variety. They helped me explore. They helped me figure out what I really liked. And today, in retrospect, they helped me be a better Domme. I know what it's like to be on that side, I know what my subs want.

sb: How old were you when you started Professionally?

MN:19

sb: What is your favorite type of scene?

MN: That's hard to say. I really enjoy something I can sink my teeth into, something I can wrap my mind around. I love playing the dominant teacher, boss, nurse, scorned girlfriend, kidnapper, etc. I want to know why I'm dominating you - Why you have been bad? What kind of punishment best suits your misdeed? Then, I can stand there with the appropriate weapon of choice and dole out excruciating punishment or start a long course of behavior modification. Those are my favorite types of sessions.

sb:Please tell me the most intense scene you ever did?

MN: I enjoy intensity. I try and bring a certain level to every session but one stands out right now. It was a realistic kidnap and enslavement in my reform camp for chauvinistic men. This was set up well in advance and required the assistance of Ms. Nikki. We lured him into our car, tied him and blindfolded him; I made him lie in the trunk.

We drove a very convoluted route over the worst traffic filled roads back to the dungeon where we dragged him blindfolded inside. I then kept him in severe bondage and mummification. I administered heavy corporal punishment, verbal humiliation and later raped him. For three hours I left him to think about his reforms. Before I would let him go, I took a picture of him and attached it to a contract that stated he now belonged to me and mandated that he visit me for continuous behavior training and punishment. This was a lot of work, but wow, how intense!

sb: Wow that sure is! Can you tell me the most humiliating thing you ever did to a slave?

MN: I think that would depend on which slave you ask but here are a few: I made one cross dressing slave go to Macy's and buy brightly colored nail polish, making sure the sales lady knew it was for him. Next stop, the clothing department so he could buy a little black dress, then the lingerie. He had to try every last thing on, too. And the salespeople all knew.

I purposely picked a non-fetish store making it all the more humiliating. He then had to go to a midtown Manhattan salon for a manicure, pedicure and facial. Then, he came in for a session - already dressed with makeup. Oh yeah, he was wearing a butt plug the whole time. I also remember a particularly naughty boy who didn't want to take his enemas. Just before he left, I filled him up with 2 quarts, put him in a diaper and sent him on his way. Talk about embarrassment.

sb: Boy i bet that punishment taught him a lesson! So You really enjoy public humiliation then?

MN: Yes. But since it's just two of us, I don't always have the opportunity. It's really fun, though. One time a slave from Europe came to town, and we went to a NYC Fetish restaurant La Nouvelle Justine and had the whole restaurant watching. I made him lick the bottom of my shoes clean while I ate my dinner.

sb: i bet he loved every minute of that! How about cross-dressers? Do you enjoy these types of scenes?

MN: Of course. I like to do full transformations. Wigs, make-up, lingerie, stockings, skirts, heels. I try to teach them to walk, sit, cross their legs and act like a lady. But I now in the heart of any cross dresser is a slut. Sometimes my sluts need to be punished and sometimes they just need to be dirty girls. Sometimes I like to put my slaves in panties or stockings just to embarrass them.

sb: Do you enjoy water-sports?

MN: Sure. I'm all for it. What better way to show My slave I own him than by marking him like a dog?

sb: Your legs and feet are absolutely exquisite. Do you enjoy foot worship?

MN: A slave who can give a really good foot massage will always be in my good book. I love foot worship and foot slaves. Break out the lotions and a pair of hands that know what to do and you can escape punishment for quite some time.

sb: Do You prefer taunting Your slaves in boots or open toe shoes?

MN: If I had to pick I'd say open toed shoes. That way my feet are easily accessible.

sb: Do You like heavy corporal?

MN: Yes. It does not have to be a part of my sessions but I do enjoy it. There's something about punishing a slave until he cries or begs for mercy that's such a rush. It's hard to explain but there is a real release when you get to such an intense level. Weather its part of a role or I'm dealing with a pure masochist, I feel very powerful and alive after a corporal session.

sb:What is Your favorite implement for this?

MN: I have two. The first would be my canes. I use several types: plastic, rubber and of course, bamboo. I love the patterns they make and the whooshing sound as you are about to strike. I also have a three-foot long single tail whip that i absolutely adore exercising. Again the beautiful striation of the skin and the sound it makes. I love to start with slow, anticipated strokes and move the pace slightly higher. I don't like anything to feel out of control. I like each stroke to be hit with intent. Any best of all is the look of pride in a good slave's eyes as I allow him to gaze at his punished ass.

sb: Please tell us about Your fabulous facility?

MN: I work with Ms. Nikki at the dungeon that she designed and decorated herself. It does not have a gothic or dark feel. It is warmer and more sophisticated. It's decorated with art, antiques and luxurious custom equipment. It's equipped with high-ceiling suspension, cross, horse, coffin, and endless numbers of toys.

There's a full medical facility with ceramic tiled floor, exam table, stainless steel medical cabinets, and equipment such as a stethoscope, a B/P gauge, an anal speculum, catheters, and enemas. The cross dressing area has a vanity with wall-size make-up mirror, dressing screen, and a wide array of clothes,lingerie, shoes, wigs, and make-up. I've received many compliments on the space's décor and meticulous up keep.

sb: Do You have any personal slaves?

MN: No, I no longer take on personal slaves outside of work. I like to keep my private life private. But, I have had personal slaves in the past, and I'm still knee deep in them all day long.

sb: Can a slave who scenes with you also are photographed if he wishes?

MN: Sure. We're always looking to take more pictures. I'm willing to screen all willing applicants. As long as the request is specified prior to an appointment and complete in details. I also want everybody to know that NO ONE is ever photographed without his knowledge and consent.

sb: What kind of slaves do You like the most and least?

MN: If were talking strictly slaves, not fetishists or role-play fantasies I like slaves who obey what they're told -- slaves who give themselves over COMPLETELY to my will. My favorite is a slave who can just let his guard down 100%, and let me do what I do best. My slaves have to trust me. My least favorite slave is one who doesn't know his place, and thinks I'm not going to do anything about it.

I also don't like it when a slave describes certain things that he can take as punishment, but when I administer them, he cries out his code word. Don't let me think that we have mutual interests and then when I do them you cry mercy. A slave who doesn't trust me is probably the worst. If he says mercy before I even do something, before even trying what I have to give that infuriates me. It interrupts my flow and my fun. It makes a session stilted and I can't get in my zone. Mercy has its place and I believe in using it when pushing limits but using in these circumstances is the worst thing a slave can do.

sb:What is Your favorite type of clothing?

MN: I have many favorite types. It all depends on the occasion. I love corsets. The way a corset feels against my body. I love high-heeled platforms. And, don't forget garters and stockings or thigh highs. I can go leather or lace, PVC or rubber. It's not the clothes that make the woman, but I do love them.

sb: What is the greatest thrill You get from Domination?

MN: When I'm dominating a slave or a client, it's so natural for me. It's always been that natural. I get to be the woman I've always wanted to be. That shy little girl who gets to do what was always in her heart, but she was too scared... My greatest thrill is that I get to act on and improve on the thing that I've loved doing for so long. And, it never seems to get old - well, I mean, sometimes anything gets old, but you work, and with this, the work always pays off.

sb: Do you session with novices?

MN: Yes. I don't hold it against anyone to be a novice. Everyone's got to start somewhere. As long as they are open-minded and serious about their interests. I think there is a real positive aspect to starting with a novice- I know they'll be trained correctly and to my liking.

sb: What is one of your favorite positions to have a sub in?

MN: On his back, legs high in the air, spread, bound to the suspension bar, and tied back forcing his knees toward his chest- leaving his entire rear end open and vulnerable. Arms should be bound to the bench over his head- leaving chest and sides accessible. He is immobile - ass, genitals, nipples, and face available for any torture or teasing.

sb: What is your favorite drink?

MN: I don't drink alcohol. On a daily basis, I drink water and have to admit to being a bit of a diet soda junkie. But if I had to pick a favorite drink, it would have been a strawberry smoothie, but I've become allergic to strawberries, so I'd have to say a vanilla milkshake.

sb: But you are much more than a professional and lifestyle Domina, perhaps you could share one or two of your other interests?

MN: You mean, other than shopping?... I really enjoy being creative. I like to do lots of crafts, knitting, sewing, and origami. I get bored easily and move from one interest to another. I find myself intrigued with human biology and psychology especially when it comes to sex or sexual natures. Like S&M this is an interest I have not lost.

sb: What are Your favorite types of gifts?

MN: Clothes. I don't really wear jewelry and I don't drink. Flowers are always nice. But any kind of fetish clothes or lingerie are my favorites. Shoes too.

sb: Do You play in Your personal life?

MN: Yes on occasion. There was a time in my life where I was surrounded by subs, went to all the fetish clubs, had personal slaves and worked as a pro-domme. It became too much. I stared to lose interest and get bored. For the first time work actually seemed like work. I've found it's much better for me to keep most of my fetish play to the dungeon. But there are never any rules to this so my private life is open to S&M play as well.

sb: What is a really kinky scene that You haven't done yet that You would like to do with a slave?

MN: I don't know. I'd like to see a really creative slave or fetishist come up with a great role-play and present it for review and revision. That's what I'd like to see.

sb: Do You also work with Women and couples?

MN: I love to and I work really well with both. All my experiences with couples and women have been fun.

sb: What other Mistresses do You admire in the scene?

MN: The Woman I admire most is the Woman who taught me the most and I've been with for most of my career is Ms. Nikki. She's the reason I'm still doing this on a professional level. Her determination to create a dungeon that is as private and sophisticated as this one is has kept me interested. She is always screening the clients, making sure they are up to par and that I share interests with them. She has helped me realize that this is something I can do my way and enjoy.

sb: Yes Mistress Nikki is really special. i know You have traveled extensively. What places have You found the most appealing?

MN: I love New Orleans.

sb:Do You plan to offer a member's section on Your website?

MN: Not at this time, although I plan on updating the photographs on my site very regularly and you can watch me on my free web-cam Monday through Friday 12-9pm as my schedule permits.

sb: Very cool! Do You offer e-mail training for long distance slaves? If so what techniques do You employ to verify obedience to Your commands? How about webcam sessions?

MN: I just began offering e-mail training - I have to see exactly how that evolves, but I may have my slaves scan receipts, pics, detailed journals, affidavits, and things of this nature. I also think I have a really good ability to sense b.s., and if for any reason I thought my slave was being untruthful I would terminate his training immediately. Web-cam sessions will be available within the next month.

sb: Do You also do financial domination?

MN: I decide everything on a case by case basis - if the right candidates present themselves I will consider it.

sb: You are without a doubt drop dead gorgeous. Have You ever modeled professionally?

MN: Thank you for the compliment. I have done two runway shows, but that's about it. Despite many propositions to enter a modeling career, I have not. The few times I was involved I was bored to death and hated that you could not do anything unless they told you to. You could not wear what you wanted or if you thought something looked terrible it did not matter, you had to wear it anyway. This was not for me.

More importantly, I've worked hard to look this way - I was blessed with my face and I work out for an hour every day, but I was extremely overweight my entire childhood until I was 16, so I don't enjoy anybody telling me to lose weight or that I'm not skinny enough. I work hard to look the way I do. I'm not perfect, and that's fine with me. I just don't think you have to be 5' 10'', 120 lbs, to be beautiful. And, I don't want anyone telling me that what I have to be - no thanks.

sb:Mistress Natalie thank You very much for this interview. Please tell everyone how You can be contacted for a session?

MN:I can be reached by email, although I prefer applicants to complete and submit the "profile form" on my web site before contacting me directly. I'm available for appointments Monday through Friday, 12pm through 9:30pm.

Weekends are occasionally available with advance notice and a 2 hour minimum. I encourage elaborate fantasy scenarios with as much attention to detail as possible - for me almost anything is possible - I'm in NYC with unlimited resources for fun.

sb: Very good and thank You again Mistress. This was really an honor for me!

MN:Thank you bruce, it's been a pleasure.
