Submissive Eye Candy - Zineboys Poohbearing it

There are days when running a magazine devoted to Female Domination calls for serious discussions about relationships, power, service, and what submission actually means. Then there are days when somebody looks at Winnie-the-Pooh, notices that the silly old bear has been wandering around for decades in a shirt with absolutely nothing covering his bottom half, and thinks: we should make the Zineboys do that.

Naturally, we did.

Welcome to Poohbearing It, another of our For the Ladies Only adventures in finding entertaining ways to put submissive men on display. The concept could hardly be simpler. Each boy was told to choose a shirt, remove everything else, and give us two photographs: one from the front and one from behind. Shirts on. Pants off. Underwear off. Bare bottoms out. It is fashion according to the Hundred Acre Wood, with a decidedly FemdomU interpretation.

The funny thing about Poohbearing is that wearing some clothing can make a man look much more exposed than wearing none at all. There is something wonderfully absurd about a perfectly ordinary shirt ending at his waist and then, quite suddenly, boy. His legs are bare, his backside is bare, and from the front there is no question about what he neglected to put on that morning. The shirt almost seems to announce, “I was getting dressed, but a woman apparently intervened.”

We also discovered that our Zineboys make a rather charming collection of bears of very little brain. Some appear perfectly pleased with their pantsless predicament. Others manage to look as though they have only just realized what they agreed to. Either way, once the instructions have been given, there is little for a good submissive bear to do except stand where he is told, turn when instructed, and allow the ladies to enjoy the view.

And perhaps that is what makes this particular gallery such fun. There is no need to pretend that every act of submission must be solemn, intimidating, or dripping with profound symbolism. Female-led play can be ridiculous simply because a woman finds ridiculously entertaining. A submissive can demonstrate obedience by accepting that today his important contribution to the Magazine is putting on a shirt, taking off his pants, and showing women his bare bottom.

So wander into our little corner of the Hundred Acre Wood and meet the Zineboys who accepted the challenge. There may not be much honey waiting for these bears, but there are plenty of ladies looking, and not a pair of pants in sight.
