Monique von Cleef

Screen 6 of 7

I said I am too old for mash notes, and I doubt if they are so rare in your life as to have much meaning. But believe me when I say I desire you intensely. I desire to be once again on my knees before you and over yours and to do your bidding to the best of my ability. And I desire much more. Happily and hopefully yours.”

When interviewed in 1977 about her lifestyle Monique said, “I think we are born this way, maybe a little more is added in childhood and as we get older, but we are absolutely born with this - uh - variation.”

When asked if she subscribed to the theory that in order to become a good Mistress女主人 — a woman who leads a submissive partner, you must first experience how to be a good slave奴隶 — a person kept in total obedience. She sharply and forcefully said, "Absolutely NOT!"

When asked about some of her observations about submissive顺从 — willing to obey men, Monique said “Over the years I have seen many slaves奴隶 — a person kept in total obedience and I’ve noticed that most engineers want to be feminized. Eighty percent of the transvestites, maybe 90% of them, were engineers. That's interesting.”

According to the New Jersey authorities, Monique’s confiscated card file listed the names of 15,000 persons from across the nation and at least four foreign counties who paid $50 or more for an hour's session with the blonde Dominatrix女支配者 — a dominant woman. Her clientele included screen and stage actors, politicians, and professional athletes.

Overnight, Mistress女主人 — a woman who leads a submissive partner Monique von Cleef became a household word and she gained internationally fame.
