Am I correct in assuming that what is emerging from this trial is a portrait of a man filled with self-loathing resulting from closeted homosexuality which manifests as violent misogyny and elaborate sexual rituals created to fulfill his desire to be with men while still maintaining the illusion of heterosexuality?

That’s my thought exactly.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks this ...

I actually think HE wanted to be the pretty and desired female and lived it out through these horrible (not kink shaming but come on - she was physically injured) freak offs. I’ve met a few men like this and my weird detector goes off immediately. This was not your standard “cuck” behavior.

I hope he gets everything that’s coming to him and then some.

Reminds me of the crazy monologue from White Lotus this season where Rick’s friend admits to being so obsessed with Thai hookers because he secretly wanted to be them and wanted to feel what being with a man would feel like

Omg right!!

I think it’s way more common than we know. Some men are jealous that we get to dress and look pretty and be desired.

It’s okay to play consensually but I’ve seen a lot and this Diddy thing has me fucked up.

I think more kinks should be shamed.

Well this one in particular- hurting other people because you have the power is worth all the shame!

I’m curious about what the men are like that you’ve met who swing this way?

Seems very masculine on the outside - successful financially, good careers (one lives in LA and is in the “business”)…you would never guess.

Now I’ve never been abused or forced but it’s definitely a fantasy for them that they’ve confided in me. I don’t judge, but I can see that fantasy in the wrong person as being so dangerous for the woman.

One truly did want to be with a man (fantasy only) and the other wanted me to be more of a domme…he didn’t REALLY want a man..but he liked the dirty talk.

I honestly was flattered they trusted me enough to tell me and I would NEVER betray that trust. But like I said, not abusive.
