I have to show this to you. It has me salivating in the brain. I'm obsessed. It's a thong from an outfit called lingerie au lys (http://lingerie-au-lys.fr/index.php?contenu=bijoux) and it's called "L'Ouverture". Erotic and seductive as hell, isn't it? But I also think it's an article of tremendous symbolic and semiotic importance, maybe one of the most important articles of erotic fashion since the brassiere.
Take a moment to just study and appreciate it and then meet me below for a little ranting and raving...
Now... There are several reasons I'm so taken with this elegant little devil of a device. First of all, look at what it does: it's a dam, that's all. Just a little ring of metal (I assume it's metal.) No clips or clamps or inserts or tape or stickum. It merely holds back the flesh that normally protects the clitoris and allows the little Queen of Soul to emerge from her usual hiding place. We see her in all her splendor, exalted. For a device to accomplish that alone is worth the price of admission, but to accomplish it with the elegance and delicacy and sheer simplicity of L'Ouverture is something bordering on genital genius. Throw in the fact that it just makes the clit look so stunningly good, like a pearl in a setting, and you've got a true aesthetic masterpiece. You rarely ever find good taste mixed up with the world of hot sex but you have it here. L'Ouverture is just simply beautiful and it makes the clit beautiful too.
Secondly and more important, L'Ouverture brings the clitoris right into the game at last. Oh, of course she's always been there, but with this little thing, she's now definitely a fully credentialed player that even oafs like me and my other man friends can see and not someone hanging back on the sexual sidelines who we only hear rumors of - "She says she likes it when you do this. She says she doesn't like it when you do that..." This is a statement of arrival. It's (and I apologize for the expression) "ballsy" and (and I don't apologize for this one) "in your face". I'm a clit. I'm here. Deal with it.
And then, what would wearing L'Ouverture do to the wearer's perception of the world in general and sex in particular? Well, not having a clit myself, I could only guess, but I'd have to imagine it would make you a lot more sensitive, a lot more "out there", a lot more aware. It would be like having a little antennae down there, unshielded and ready to receive any sort of stray vibrations that might waft your way. You'd be constantly semi-aroused. It would be almost, in a way, like having a penis! Hey!
And that's the last point, because looking at this photo, I couldn't help but think of the old biological truth that the head of the penis and the clitoris are morphologically similar; they arise from the same kind of tissue as they develop. Seen in this way and using L'Ouverture and a little imagination, a woman can almost be seen as a hermaphrodite, equipped with both a pussy and a little dick, and isn't that an interesting picture!
I don't know about you, but I find that as erotic as hell and quite a new way of looking at things. And all due to this little circle of brass.
I won't even get into the poetics of the thing. I looked at the picture for a long time before I noticed that the hand on her thigh was a man's. (It's French, and as I recall, French men wear their wedding rings on their left hands?) No doubt he's admiring her. I know I would be. She's gorgeous (and probably embarrassewd as hell, as I would be too if someone sat around staing at my dick with a dreamy look on their face.)
I started thinking about the clitoris as metaphor for woman's sexuality - the "hidden nature" aspect of it, the way their sexuality, like the clitoris, traditionally "needed" to be exposed, which gives rise to all those reluctance and non-consent fantasies, whereas the man's always walking around with this pole stifcking out in front of him... Would you find those kinds of reluctance & non-consent fantasies among women who were L'Ouverture wearers?
By the way, I've already written a story using it. I expect that soon we'll be seeing this thing popping up all over. The erotic possibilities are staggering.
