eruthrosOne of the things thingswithwings and I are trying to do with the ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
kink_bingo wiki is to expand the fandoms, and more importantly the types of fandoms, that we depict in the images that accompany the text. The examples I come up with are almost always from my fannish history -- I can think of a Buffy example for anything -- and TVtropes is not always descriptive enough to be helpful.
So, in the interests of expanding the fandoms, I have some questions for you guys! I'd love to hear about examples from comics or live action tv or anime or movies or things you know I've seen or things you know I haven't seen. (Episode or issue names/numbers/plot summaries/some other way to find things would be helpful but isn't necessary.)
1. Animal-people! People who turn into animals, people who have animalistic features, people who wear animal outfits, people who act like animals a la Wolverine.
2. Bondage! Bondage is so easy to do that I always go "oh, whatever, any scene I've seen on tv," but really I ought to expand the fandoms. We'd love all kinds of bondage: straightjackets, handcuffs, chained up, complicated rope bondage, hogtied, tied to chairs, tied to someone else, anything.
3. Mind control! Or hypnosis or amnesia or anything similar.
4. Sensation play type stuff -- people brushed with needles or fur or enjoying their silk shirts or whatever. Or blindfolds! Blindfolds are good.
5. Anything that your fandom is really good at! Like, Star Trek TOS is hugely into mind control, and Veronica Mars is all over voyeurism, but I'd never have known that without watching those shows, so what am I missing from your favorite show?

Date: 2010-02-25 03:13 am (UTC)Bondage: Um... I noticed Fiona got tied up and tossed in a car trunk last week on Burn Notice while pretending to have been abducted. That was ep 3x14 "Partners in Crime." I'm sure I could come up with more comprehensive examples, but it looks like people are coming up with plenty, so I'll stick with the recent one.
