Locker Room Surprise
I have issues with the usual assumptions about “violent” porn. There’s a lot of rapey porn out there, in which the sex is rough and (in a fictional narrative sense) non-consensual. The common unexamined assumption is that porn like this is by men and for men; women viewers aren’t anticipated, and such women who do happen to view it are expected to be disinterested, repulsed, angered, or worse.
That’s never made a lot of sense to me, because it’s a truism that both men and women are often known to enjoy a good rape fantasy. In the usual narrative, the men who enjoy rape fantasy are just rape-minded pigs who haven’t been caught and arrested yet, and the women? The usual narrative tries to pretend they don’t exist, despite magnificent piles of evidence that they do. (Here I gently gesture at the existence of an entire subgenre of literature for women that gets referred to by the phrase “bodice ripper”.)
This dynamic was demonstrated in microcosm when I blogged here about a sex comic featuring a woman surprised in her shower by a scary hooded bondage rapist with a huge erection. Although I acknowledged in the post that this was an equal-opportunity fantasy that some women would enjoy, I nonetheless concluded that the scenario probably fell into the “unwelcome surprises while showering” category.
It was just a snarky little throwaway post and it attracted precisely one comment, from a regular ErosBlog commenter with a female pseudonym: “I know I wouldn’t mind one bit…” The implication being that my disclaimer was over-cautious, as least as to the one reader whose attention was engaged to the point of feeling moved to comment.
I was reminded of all this when I saw a recent locker room “surprised in the shower” photo shoot called “Take One For The Team” from Sex and Submission. Despite being in a genre of porn that’s typically assumed to be by-and-for men, the actual scenario struck me as likely to have broader appeal, especially during the substantial portion of the photoshoot before they broke out the usual ropes-and-gags that defines the Sex And Submission porn niche.
It all begins so innocently. Model Nicki Blue (yes, the infamously-marketed recently-sort-of-virginal one) is teasing the hunky men in the locker room after a coed soccer game:
Then she traipses off to take a shower, alone:
Splish, splash, takin’ a bath, Saturday night, all that soapy jazz:
And then, suddenly, ninjas appear!
No, wait, that’s a different movie.
Not ninjas, no, but overmuscled jocks, jocks with sex on their mind. (The one they share between them?) Ms. Blue summons an appropriately melodramatic expression for our viewing pleasure:
Of course they grab her and throw her to her knees. This is actually a fairly lengthy and drawn-out process, with much roughhousing and grabbing and hair-pulling and slapping and insincere struggling; the shower scene in the photoshoot has almost 70 photos in total, of which maybe nine are between that last one and this one:
For some reason I find that last photo utterly hilarious. Intentional or not, it makes fun of jocks in a huge way. These two beefy dudes have invaded a girl’s shower, scared her, grabbed her, thrown her to her knees, and now they are holding her by the hair on the back of her head while they, what, have a jovial conversation in which they try to figure out what to do with her?
Try to keep up with the program, jock dudes! The porn logic has already passed your conversation by. Everybody (except you) already knows she’s going to suck your dicks now, while displaying varying (but mostly declining) amounts of faux reluctance. Stop delaying the game!
So, of course, she does. And then they move out into the locker room, for a couple of scenes in the more-typical-for-this-site ropes-and-gags genre:
So, do I have a point? Nah. I just wanted to show you Nikki’s excellent “surprised in the shower” face, and then I got to blathering even worse than Jockface #1 and Jockface #2, above.

It seemed trivial to mention the first time; but, after a second post and some discourse on women enjoying this sort of thing, I thought I’d mention that both posts have made me smile :)
[…] How about Nikki Blue, surprised in the shower and grabbed for rough bondage sex? […]
I’ll be the first to throw the “agreeing female reader” bone out there. I’ll admit to being turned on by rape fantasy in a minor sense (I’m not into all the slapping and degrading talk, but a little rough-and-tumble is okay by me).
It falls a bit into the masochist category in that my close circle of male friends and a few past boyfriends have been very passive. I always feel like I’m the one making decisions, planning things, etc. and they just sit back and listen. Sometimes I like to feel like someone else is in control of what’s going on and all I do is sit back and take what’s given.
So maybe I’m not a total rape fantasy chick, maybe I just like my guys a little more dominating. But I assure you that if a guy suggested we do a little role play involving a helpless co-ed and a burglar breaking into her dorm room I wouldn’t say no.
Women who like rape fantasy exist, it’s just still somewhat of a taboo, so you don’t see them openly admitting it too often.
Found your blog this morning, and loved it.
Nikki’s surprised look is not at all that bad,she manages to pull off the ‘Psycho’ shower scene convincingly enough.
Best wishes,

I find the rape fantasy very exciting, although it depends how it is played out. I’m not too interested in just watching the action unfold; what I find sexy are the emotions, power-struggle, mind games and the psychology that fuel the fantasy. That is difficult to find in porn.
There is a old black & white film called The Bridge, where five local German youth are conscripted to protect the village bridge from on coming American forces (tanks). Leading up to the tragic end, we see the boys go through their final days , including one who gets (rape) the sexy young German blond PE teacher while she showers in the school. What’s guy to do. He knows he’s soon to die, so…
