Who is this voluptuous young maid who has unfortunately lost most of her clothes?
She’s Maghella, an Italian comic strip character from the nineteen seventies, the sort of comic that fourteen year old boys would secretly buy to wank over, only to have it confiscated by Father who would take it to his study, lock the door, carefully and disapprovingly examine it for a good hour and then masturbate over it. (Yes, as you can see I’m an expert on the subject of self pleasuring. Boys wank, men masturbate .That’s all you need to know. What? Us girls, masturbate? The very idea!)
I’ll be coming back to Maghella in a moment, but as Sexuelle is aimed at sophisticated adults rather than dirty minded adolescents, let’s move on, temporarily anyway, to images which were aimed at a more grown up audience. Long pre- dating Maghella, Alberto Vargas was penning pictures of, here we go again, lush, slim, full breasted temptress for Esquire magazine and then Playboy.
Like Maghella, his females tended to either be wearing so little there was hardly any point to the few wisps draping their extraordinary bodies or were totally naked. (He had a big weakness for the see through night dress, and I will be re- posting an article on that shortly.)
Superficially there was little difference between Maghella and Vargas’ bedroom fantasy females as their sole purpose would have been to make the target reader horny, and of course they both had the sort of bodies that men would dream about on warm nights, in particular being in possession of the sort of pneumatic breasts that a girl can only get by having copious quantities of sperm rubbed in them. (What? You mean I shouldn’t listen when my various boyfriends tell me that? Oh well!)
Anyway, moving swiftly on, on examination, the differences between the two soon become apparent.
Maghella seems to have spent her entire time running through hostile forests and up castle stairs in a desperate attempt to escape some ever more lurid fate worse than death. This is why the poor girl’s clothes have been ripped off her, and no doubt she really would have rather been curled up at home in a nice woolly cardigan catching up on the Leveson enquiry. Instead of that she is instead almost permanently on the verge of being ravished,
Maghella is the ultimate sado masochistic fantasy female whose purpose in life is to feed the imaginations of those whose idea of a nice quiet evening in with their girlfriend includes a little light torture.
Despite the bodily similarities, the Vargas female however was an entirely different creature; they weren’t running anywhere. Way ahead of their time in their sexual liberation they were not planning on escaping from any sexual experience that might come their way, and indeed were positively inviting it in.
I have little doubt that both Vargas and the artist who drew Maghella must have spent most of their working time in a state of priapic over arousal and that by the end of their careers their poor willies must have looked like burned out Roman candles as a result of endless hours of masturbation.
Despite the clearly sadistic overtones of the Maghella stories, I do not know of any pictures of her being given a proper spanking, (shame, just imagine her lush nakedness struggling over your knee as you peel her kickers down, but no doubt some of you have already been doing that!) but on one occasion at least her adventures find her in some schoolroom situation on the verge of having her lovely Italian bottom about to be caned.
Clearly Vargas was clearly not into spanking despite his giving us an endless stream of the exact sort of provocative little hussies that I suspect all of you consider would benefit from a good smacked bottom. That being the case, in a few cases I have added captions of my own which I’m sure you will appreciate.
And now, having done my duty by you I think I’m now going to slip most of my clothes off and have a quiet lie down, carefully forgetting to lock the bedroom door.
Who knows what will happen next, a gentleman caller who will not be able to resist my come hither look, or some fiend who will tether and imprison me for his filthy diabolical pleasures. You decide!
Liz,
ReplyDeleteExceptionally well done post Liz. I really enjoyed your comments about the contrast between Vargas and the Italian cartoon character.
You decide. Hmmm. I envision a gentleman caller in formal attire who is surprised that you are not yet ready for your evening with him of dinner and dancing. His look is angry, yet taken by your beauty.
You are soon over his knee as he spanks you with his bare hand warming your bottom to a nice shade of dark pink. He lifts you and begins an erotic dance with the seductive Liz.
Hugs,

While I am guessing that the artists were drawing for an almost entirely male audience, I can see how both are very appealing to lady readers/viewers as well and perhaps even more so to the female readers of your site.
ReplyDeleteWe see Vargas depiction of the sexually confident seductress and can readily imagine what reactions such poses will inspire, or at least hope to, in the man that we are playing temptress to should we be found in the same state that he pictures. After all surely such provocative behavior would warrant a good spanking before he can't help but finally give in to the lust and passion that we were after.
Then there is Maghella. The damsel in peril is probably the most prolific scenario in the romance novels that some women enjoy. Which makes sense. Who wouldn't want a big strong brave hero rescuing us from distress. And it is well known that danger is an aphrodisiac, so it only makes sense that the hero after riding in at the last minute to slay the villains and monsters, should carry the half naked damsel off and then in their adrenaline fueled lust, he ravishes her as she implores for more.
Of course in the case of us reading your site, we would be saying that she needed a good spanking first for getting herself into such a situation. And a while over the hero's lap for her carelessness or naughtiness would further ignite the passion and lust of the players.
Great post Liz

Thanks. Glad to give you something to get your imaginations working.
ReplyDeleteAnd, Amber, I was concerned that it was a bit male orientated, but pleased to see that you seemed to get got lots out of it.
