Mathilde Friis - Purity, Monstrosity, Her PhD and Slut Shaming

In the second episode of the #teakink Power Miniseries, Eva Oh examines the existence of the Dominatrix—not just as a profession, but as a cultural phenomenon. Why is female power so rare that it becomes fetishized? What does the Dominatrix reveal about society’s relationship with female agency? And how can one navigate this space without reinforcing the very dynamics it critiques? Eva dissects the contradictions, the intrigue, and the deeper implications of wielding power in a world that still struggles to accept it.Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/evaohMore on Eva Oh: https://eva-oh.comHIGHLIGHTS:Here are the timestamps for the episode.

In the first episode of the #teakink Power Miniseries, Eva Oh unpacks the nature of power through the lens of domination and submission. What is power, really? How does context shape who holds it, and what happens when those dynamics shift? She reflects on how her time as a Dominatrix reshaped her own sense of power—both in and out of the dungeon—and how others reacted to that transformation. With power being both intoxicating and treacherous, Eva explores the risks, the artistry, and why true power demands self-investigation.Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/evaohMore on Eva Oh: https://eva-oh.comHIGHLIGHTS:Here are the timestamps for the episode.

Meet Jane Grey, Dominatrix and Co-Founder of the Scene and Unscene events. Listen in as Jane opens up about how validation, agency and recognition, drivers behind her acting career, influence her approach to domination; about her plans for the Edinburgh Fringe Festival; and how acting school shunned female sexuality. Eva Oh and Jane discuss the place of acting in a session, if they might be able to submit and how they've tried to escape the ego through the names that they've chosen.
