In “he duchess of LA”, Jane Delynn describes a leatherdyke initiation. She opposes it to a heterosexual sadomasochistic sexuality by describing it in a different space outside the domesticate and conjugal one. In this, the pleasure is the realization of a desire determined beforehand. This desire defines the identity and the self-consciousness of the subject. In a lesbian sadomasochistic club, the pleasure is an enjoyment, which is in excess with the self-consciousness of the subject. His identity and the consciousness of his desire is then performatively produced. The issue is understanding what produces an orgasm and feeling it.
