Kink's Maitresse Madeline Gives Women Control of 'Gangbangs'

SAN FRANCISCO—Kink.com performer/director Maitresse Madeline has taken the reins of the studio's Hardcore Gangbangs line with an eye toward making it over as a sex-positive portrait of female empowerment.

“Women are sexual creatures. Women have all sorts of fantasies that men would never imagine,” Madeline said. “But you have to ask them what they want.”

When she was first approached to take over Hardcore Gangbangs last month, Madeline wasn’t sure it was for her. Not only did she have a solid shooting schedule as head of Kink’s femdom line (Divine Bitches, Whipped Ass, Electro Sluts), but as a domme, she wasn’t sure her vision as a powerful woman meshed with the material.

After some conversations with interim director Lorelei Lee, however, Madeline changed her mind. “Lorelei showed me that just because a woman is the center of a gangbang, doesn’t mean she shouldn’t be in total control," she explained. "I want my women to be in control of the scene. I want them to own their sexuality.”

And so a site that had been previously known for abduction scenarios is taking a different tack: putting the scene design almost entirely on in the hands of the female performer.

“The first thing I have them do is write out what would turn them on, almost like erotic fiction," Madeline said. "It could be a few short sentences or something long and detailed. I ask them to choose the male talent they’d most like to work with. I ask them what they want to experience sexually, what turns them on. And then I start crafting it.”

Kink.com productions are known for their long checklists of likes and dislikes, from hair-pulling and name-calling to specific sexual positions and requests. Once Madeline has all of this, she designs the scene.

“I want to bring in female performers who might not have thought about doing this kind of shoot before," Madeline noted. "We’ve been very blessed with fantastic subs who are often really involved in the BDSM community, and understand how to control from the bottom. But I think a lot of other women might look at it from the outside and think, 'Oh, that’s not for me.' I want to change that.”

One example of Madeline's new vision for Gangbangs is an upcoming shoot with Ella Nova. Ella made the request, “I want to channel Michelle Pfeiffer in Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

Madeline crafted a script involving elf-men and an arranged marriage, with herself making a guest appearing as a fairy godmother.

“To be quite honest, it’s hard to organize a gangbang, even when there aren’t cameras rolling," Madline admitted. "This was a unique opportunity to really create something authentic that would redefine the traditional gangbang from a woman’s point of view.”

Those interested in living out a gangbang fantasy should contact Madeline directly, or fill out the application on the Kink Model site.
