Last night, I watched Secretary. For those who haven't heard of it, this is a movie about a woman, recently released from a mental hospital where they tried to teach her not to cut on herself when life got rough, and a lawyer who looses all his secretaries after he spanks them. When the masochist in her meets the sadist in him...well, it's like a match made in heaven. Or it would be if they weren't so caught up in feeling guilty and wrong for their feelings. I watched it a saw a very romantic love story with an extra layer of kinky to make it more interesting. Mikey was a little more disturbed by the whole thing.
I understand where he's coming from...in another situation she would be an abused woman and he would be an abusing man. But they are both getting exactly what they want from the relationship. Not only that, but they are both more capable of living the rest of their lives in a wholesome, mental-healthy kind of way when their partner provides what is needed to keep balanced. At least that is how I saw it. Like I said, others disagreed. I would be interested in hearing what you thought if you have seen it (or see it in the near future).
