USA – MANY fetish cultures have been becoming more mainstream since Christian Grey graced our screens in 2015, including findom.

Findom is a fetish where a submissive will give extravagant gifts and money to their financial dominatrix.

What is a findom fetish?

A findom fetish uses the submissive/ dominant relationship dynamic of many other fetishes.

The submissive is usually well off or fincancially stable, although they do not have to be, and give gifts and money to a financial dominant.

These submissives are sometimes called finsubs (financial submissive) or money slaves.

While the relationships often involve other BDSM practices, there is no requirement of intimacy in a findom relationship.

Although this is similar to a sugar baby or other monetary fetishes, those are often not a dominant relationship whereas this is based on a total power exchange.

In extreme dynamics, the finsub might grant all their money and other aspects of their autonomy to the dominant.

Why is it called findom?

The name findom comes from the blending of the two key aspects of this fetish – financial domination.

In fetish communities, dominance and submissive relationships are the basis for a lot of other fetishes.
