Chicago – Eva Oh, aka Mistress Eva, breaks down the cultural realities and stereotypes of the BDSM lifestyle in Zoe Marshall’s latest podcast episode of The Deep.
In the new episode, ‘The Mistress’, the highly-sought after lifestyle domme explores the roots of her profession, and how, as a child, Eva’s strong, supportive familial environment influenced her adult personality.
“The women in my family were a very powerful, knowing presence, and that probably laid a lot of the groundwork, especially for how I take steps in the world, take action and how I communicate,” she says in the hour-long interview.
Eva’s strong sense of self ultimately brought her to the “pathway to the only sector of our current humanity that says it’s actually very attractive to see a woman really speak in such a direct way and ask for what they want and what they need.”
She also notes that her many personal proclivities and penchants serve her quite well when working with clients. “I like to have my own room, and it always has to be bigger than theirs… they can only sit on my right, I don’t want them to sit across from me, they can only walk on my right three steps behind me…
“I might make them do something silly, like they have to hold something on their head for the entire duration,” Eva adds. “There are a lot of ways to integrate play into your daily existence.”
