Q. Ms Sutton, what is the correlation between a woman who wears glasses and domination? I find attractive women who wear glasses to be dominant. I see the same attractive woman and I am sexually attracted to her but when she puts on a pair of glasses, my desire turns more toward submission.

I have begun collecting pictures of women wearing glasses on my computer and it has developed into a fetish恋物 — a strong sexual focus on one thing. I find when I view these pictures, I feel submissive顺从 — willing to obey. I also have a thing for female news reporters on television who wear glasses. I find women who wear glasses to be sexy and dominant and that makes me feel weak and submissive顺从 — willing to obey.

A. You feel submissive顺从 — willing to obey when viewing a woman wearing glasses because it is an image that portrays to you that the woman is smart and intelligent, and thus superior to you, and you find that thought to be both sexually arousing and submissively stimulating.

A person who wears glasses has long been stereotyped as being studious and smart. This goes back to when it was thought that a person who read too much developed eye strain and thus they needed to wear glasses. Obviously that is not true but the “book worm” stereotype is that of a person who wears glasses. Therefore, a woman who wears glasses gives off the imagery that she is very intelligent and that imagery touches your submissive顺从 — willing to obey nature.
