sb: Mistress Valentina thank You VERY much for this exclusive interview for dickie virgin. Please tell us a little about Your background. Where are You originally from?
MV: I grew up in Orange County and had a very religious upbringing. As I grew older, I repudiated much of what I had been taught and started becoming the sexually liberated and free thinking woman I am today.
sb: How Were You introduced to The Scene?
MV: I started attending various clubs in Los Angeles, such as Vampiricus, Perversion, and Helter Skelter, when I was a teenager. At one of the clubs I met a woman who called herself "Mistress Isabella" (not to be confused with Isabella Sinclaire, the superb Dominatrix that I presently work with).While I quickly determined that she was not anyone I wanted to be associated with, she did introduce Me to Mistress Aves, who is still a dear friend of Mine.
sb: Where did You start Professionally?
MV: As mentioned above, I started doing sessions at the Hollywood dungeon of Mistress Aves when I was 18.
sb: This might seem like a dumb question because You look so forceful and authoritative to me, but were You ever submissive?
MV: While I know that many great Dominas have started that way, I am totally dominant and have no desire to submit to anyone.
sb: i didn't think so and i am known for asking at least one dumb question. :) Please describe Your style of Domination?
MV: My style is very psychological in nature. I do not have to rely on fetish clothes or toys to make men submit to Me.My mind and sexuality are all I really need.
sb: What is Your favorite type of scene?
MV: I get a great deal of satisfaction from scenes involving heartless humiliation, heavy corporal punishment, and any other activity that results in the mental and physical breaking of My submissive. While I do not expect every submissive to be able to play at that level, I certainly take great delight in torturing those that do.
sb: Very cool! Please tell me the most intense scene You have ever done?
MV: Well, at the very first play party I ever attended I enthusiastically joined Mistress Winter in a smoking torture scene in which We smoked cigarette after cigarette and extinguished them in the asshole of the submissive We were torturing. As you can imagine, if I was prepared to engage in that type of scene then, what I have done since has been even more extreme.
sb: Wow, i sure can believe that! Can You tell me the most humiliating thing You have ever made a slave do?
MV: Well bruce, thats all in the eye of the beholder, isn't it? To some a GS is a treat, but to others it is a punishment that they must endure in order to have the privilege of serving Me. I do not think of any activity as humiliating per se; the individual submissive determines what is humiliating or not themselves.
sb: How about public humiliation. Do You get into that?
MV: Any slave can enjoy lapping piss out of a dog bowl, being used as an ashtray, being dressed as a sissy, etc., in the privacy of a dungeon. But I take special delight in finding a slave willing to engage in these activities publicly.
sb: For sure! How about crossdressers? Do You enjoy these types of scenes?
MV: Very much so. I especially enjoy making them do it on a routine basis.Knowing that there are high powered corporate executives and lawyers all over Los Angeles going to work with pink panties and stockings under their business suits because I have ordered them to do so amuses Me to no end, as does the photographic evidence they send Me.
sb: i believe that! Do You enjoy watersports?
MV: Absolutely. I consider it marking My territory, so to speak.
sb: Do You enjoy foot worship?
MV: Yes, and I spare no expense in keeping My feet perfectly pedicured at all times.
sb: Do You like heavy corporal?
MV: Yes; nothing is better than finding a true pain slut who can take what I can dish out. Of course, while many have claimed that they could so, few have ever even made Me break a sweat.
sb: What are Your favorite implements for this?
MV: The heavier and more painful the implement, the more I like it. I like big,thick wooden paddles that bust both ass cheeks at the same time, the crack of a single tail before it cuts into flesh, and the whoosh sound a cane makes as it cuts through the air with a mini sonic boom before it connects.
sb: Please tell us about Your awesome facility?
MV: I am one of the independent Dominas working out of Mistress Isabella Sinclaire's Ivy Manor in Los Angeles, an elegant, well equipped studio with 4 dungeon rooms, a medical room, a crossdressing parlor, and a jail cell.
sb: Yes Mistress Isabella really does have a great facility! Do You have any personal slaves?
MV: Lets just say I am well taken care of and there is no shortage of submissives applying for My consideration.
sb: i don't doubt that! Can a slave who scenes with You also be photographed?
MV: Yes,upon arrangement.
sb: What kind of slaves do You like the most and least?
MV: I like slaves that communicate well and do not have hidden agendas. These slaves are the ones that can best accept My training methods and trust in My judgment without question. I dislike slaves that waste My time, are not respectful, or who think that professional BDSM is a subterfuge for sexual activities.
sb: What is Your favorite type of clothing?
MV: I love corsets of almost any fabric. I love the way I look and feel in latex - and I could wear black leather every day and night. When I go out in My leather pants, even totally vanilla people know I am a powerful woman.
sb: What is the greatest thrill You get from Domination?
MV: Knowing that I have systematically demoralized and broken the spirit of a pathetic sissy bitch and made them My toy to do with as I wish.
sb: Great answer! Do you session with novices?
MV: I prefer to play with novices who have at least done some research on BDSM etiquette and can properly communicate with Me. Some of My most rewarding relationships have been with those who started seeing Me as novice subs.
sb: What is one of your favorite positions to have a sub in?
MV: On his knees, head bowed, hands behind his back, and ready to give himself to Me to do whatever I want or feel necessary for his training.
sb: What is your favorite drink?
MV: Depends on how I am dressed. I like to drink Guinness when I am wearing motorcycle boots and jeans. When I am dressed elegantly I enjoy Kettle One Martinis with a twist (shaken, not stirred).
sb: But you are much more than a professional and lifestyle Domina, perhaps you could share one or two of your other interests?
MV: As much as I enjoy beating men in My dungeon, I enjoy beating them on the race track even more. I am not only completely obsessed with racing as a fan, but I am also a driver. While I enjoy racing of all kinds, I particularly follow NASCAR because of its American roots and the strategy and skill involved. I am a HUGE Dale Earnhardt Jr. fan and if he happens to see this, he is strongly encouraged to call Me. I promise to be very nice.
sb: LOL! i am sure he is a regular reader of mine. Do You have any videos for sale?
MV:I have done videos for a few different companies, but I have not produced any that I can sell on My website.That has been a popular question; check My website in the future for updates on that.
sb: What are Your favorite types of gifts?
MV: Of course I appreciate material gifts such as fetish wear and shoes;however, I really appreciate the gifts from the heart - the ones where subs take the time to express how much I mean to them and how much they appreciate Me. I have had poems, prayers, and odes written to Me. Anyone can open their wallet and buy something; that is the easy way to try to impress a Mistress.
sb: Are there other Mistresses You respect in the scene?
MV: I respect the Dommes who have been in the scene for a long time and have stayed in the scene through the good and the bad times because they truly love BDSM. I can still remember reading the ads in New Reality when it was the only major form of advertising in Los Angeles and seeing ads for Dominas like Sabrina Belladonna, Ilsa Strix, Isabella Sinclaire, Aves,Pandora, and Omega.
How many Dommes in Los Angeles can honestly say that They have been advertising for more than five years? I respect Dommes like Them as My professional peers who are in it because They truly enjoy what they do. They were among the major Dommes then and They are now as well.
Since the advent of Internet advertising the scene has been flooded with Women who seem to see being a Dominatrix as a quick way of making money. Their lack of intelligence, skill, class, and sincerity, not to mention safety and etiquette, are causing problems throughout the BDSM community. A Mistress should be a Woman worthy of respect and adoration, not someone doing a job because it beats asking "Sir, would you like fries with that?"
sb: Yes i agree totally! What is a really kinky scene that You haven't done yet that You would like to do with a slave?
MV: bruce, I am a very kinky girl (you know, the kind you don't take home to mother). There are way too many for Me to even begin to list here.
sb: Do You also work with Women and couples?
MV: Yes; with other women I enjoy scenes with more of an erotic flavor. Playing with women is quite different than playing with men; women are much more communicative and in touch with their feelings. I have had some great experiences playing with couples, especially when the female is the dominant partner.
sb: i know You have travelled extensively. What places have You found the most appealing?
MV: I definitely enjoy travelling and have visited over 30 states. I have had great times in both San Francisco and New York City and especially want to visit New Orleans. I am thinking about travelling to cities along the NASCAR cicuit, such as Rockingham, NC, and Bristol, TN, and meeting submissives who otherwise would not get to meet a quality Dominatrix.
sb: Do You plan to offer a member's section on Your website?
MV: I do not have plans for that in the immediate future, but I might do so at some point.
sb: Have You ever modeled professionally?
MV: I am not like most people living in Hollywood and trying to "make it big"; however, I do enjoy being in front of the camera and have been in magazines such as Rolling Stone, Hot Rod Magazine, Whap, and Barracuda, to name a few.
sb: Awesome! Mistress Valentina, thank You very much for this exclusive interview. i know how busy You are. Please tell everyone how You can be contacted for a session?
MV: You can check out My web site. I love doing double sessions with My good friend Goddess Sativa; We share another web site.
sb: Oh yes, i have talked to Goddess Sativa and She is very cool. Thank You again Mistress Valentina!
MV: you are welcome bruce.
