Financial domination (also known as money slavery) is a fetish lifestyle, in particular a practice of D/s, where usually a male submissive or money slave, pay pig, human ATM, or cash piggie will give gifts and money to a financial female (or male) dominant (also known as money mistress, findomme, money domme, "cash master", "findom").
The relation may often be accompanied by other practices of BDSM and female domination or male domination, like erotic humiliation, but there may be virtually no further intimacy between the individuals. The relationship between the 'slave' and the 'mistress'(or 'master') may take place solely via online communication, but it is not uncommon that the 'slave' may accompany his mistress while she (or he) is shopping and paying with his (or her) money.
Such a relationship between individuals may be similar to, yet clearly distinguishable from, relationships based on Total Power Exchange. In the latter one, the submissive may grant all his or her money saved and earned to the dominant, in addition with much more aspects of his or her autonomy, but it is not uncommon that both partners have an intimate relationship as well. The fetish of financial domination fetish should also be distinguished by Sugar daddy/Sugar babe-like relations between individuals, where the male may spend gifts and money to 'his' girl, without explicit elements of female domination.
Financial domination is a paraphilia stemming from a devotion of financial slavery or to be dominated in a financial way. Many[who?] pro-dommes and femdommes found this to be a natural extension for any professional dominatrix who is already being paid for fetish services, and began to exploit it with clients who shared her fetish. Some domme clients were aroused as much by giving money to a dominant woman, as they were by any fetishes they may have been coming to see her for. The dominatrix may also be aroused from being financially worshiped.
For example...dude slathers up in miracle whip...then calls.
