yes and no, things like gimp masks are “sub” attire because they outwardly signal submissiveness as by wearing it, you give up part of your personality (your face)
well, if you view skirts as a form of gender expression maybe, but everyone wears trousers, think of it more like business attire, your cashier in a normal store is not going to be wearing a suit, but a banker is not going to come in to work wearing surfer boy lounge PJs, these things generally signal something
This is patently untrue. I participate in fear play, and frequently use masks in my play. My favorite is a full-face mirror that looks a bit like Cobra Commander’s faceplate. Whole point is, the only thing my sub sees when they look at my face in a scene with that mask is their own face. I have a number of other masks, each with their own “flavor” that helps to set a headspace for that scene.
Each Top does their own thing. To assume masks are purely Bottom attire is pretty presumptuous.
Edit: I may have to use this as a costume idea for an upcoming play party. “Meatball Dom”. I like it.
I wasn’t talking about all masks but gimp masks specifically, and yes I agree that things can have multiple uses/meanings based on context, but this is also somewhat of a uniform
