Excerpted from a long essay by Madam A on American Boundoir:
[Mistress Marlene’s] pet peeve about what she calls the ‘Instant Domme Syndrome’ that, according to her, she has been watching develop all over the world and in essence is the downfall of Femdomhood. According to Mistress Marlene, this Vanilla Domme beliefs that too much book learning and fantasy and not enough hands on reality before claiming a title that should be bestowed by one’s peers has largely contribute to this phenomena.
Mistress Marlene claims the the Vanilla Domme is bored one day and decides to recreate herself into one of the most powerful personas on earth. This vanilla imposter adds the title of Mistress in front of her name and begins the lie. This vanilla popsicle’s ego fools her into believing in herself and the vanilla Domme jumps into displaying what she thinks a Domme is. In her quest for importance she does not even recognize the difference between dominating and domineering. Of course, neither does the submissive until his heart and soul are caught in her web of deception.
According to Mistress Marlene, using a title is misrepresenting domination via title and content and is not a wise entrance into a new dream.
