As requested, an assessment of the Dollbreaker Tumblr blog
“Thoughts on the dollbreaker blog? I’m not trying to start drama or anything, I just spent a few minutes scrolling through and now I feel sick and really bad about myself. Guess i just want reassurance that not all older men think like that? I’m never goibg to fit the mold of lean and petite with perky breasts.” — Anonymous Ask
So years ago I was listening to a panel of child-development experts and television programming and the moderator mentioned that they couldnât stand Barney the TV dinosaur. One of the panelists expertly dragged him, saying âthey donât make it for you.â
A few years later my infant son was sitting in my lap, sick with a cold, while we watched TeleTubbies. At some point they did⊠something or other⊠and my son laughed like an adult. Not the nervous or silly infant laugh babies often do around grownups, but a deep in the belly âheh heh hehâ laugh of appreciation.
Thatâs when that original panelistâs remark sank in. TeleTubbies wasnât for me. But it sure as hell was right on the money for an 18-month-old.
So thatâs how I feel about dollbreaker. Iâd never taken a close look till you mentioned it â Iâd bump into their reposts from time to time but, no surprise, itâs not for me!  After taking a close look Iâll say the author is very good at a particular kind of topping that, based on his engagement, seems to appeal to Subs with an equally particular humiliation/degradation/inadequacy kink.
Iâm going to be hyper generous and say that whether accidentally or on purpose, their seemingly random posts of very young, very slender women deepens that sense of erotic inadequacy for their followers.
But looking at their follower engagement the author is ironically very accommodating. They either donât receive or at least donât reblog comments from the usual misogynist/red-pill/incel, legitimately anti-feminist you see elsewhere on Tumblr. And based on their occasional meta comments I donât think the author supports that kind of bullshit in real life.
In other words I get the impression they clearly distinguish between their and their userâs kink vs actual real-world misogyny, gender degradation, and humiliation. And thatâs very different from a lot of the legitimately misogynistic stun-porn xxxtreme âbondageâ porn sites like Kink.com that cater to primarily vanilla-male-spectators consumers.
After reading 50 or 60 of their posts I get the strong impression that dollbreaker caters to women subs. I donât like it. Like you it makes me feel queasy. I can see how it makes you feel bad about yourself. And if your kink isnât based on those bad feelings about yourself then, yeah, I can see how it would make you feel sick too.
But hereâs the deal about that: there are huge numbers of people out there, including other kinksters, who think the whole D/Lg kink and all its practitioners are equally sickening, patriarchal, regressive, etc. My assessment is that dollbreaker and their followers are in a similar position.
Iâll just echo what that panelist said so many years ago: dollbreaker doesnât make it for us.
Iâm so willing to be made wrong about this. But thatâs my honest, admittedly generous assessment after a first serious look.
p.s. If my assessment is correct then I could do without the whole âsorry feministsâ lines they occasionally toss in. Itâs not because itâs ânot for me,â itâs because it comes across as lazy signaling rather than creative topping.
