Nah, I don't mind. I was actually just rewatching the video to unpack my first reactions, and I think several factors play into this:
- Gaga is dressed in lingerie the color of her skin tone, versus the male partner in leather or latex, so she seems more naked/vulnerable. - The bed/dance moves remind me of wrestling, and she's (likely) physically weaker. (Which... if this were two men in bed or she was with another woman, I don't think it would stand out to me.) - The snippets when she's on top seem more sensual and less combative. At one point, the guy holds her down by the upper arms, and anything that feels like a non-con vibe squicks me. (Though she's not distressed or anything.)
Penetration has little to do with it; to me it's just the posing. I mean, I'm on the bottom all the time when I do it.
(I pretty much don't have a lot of sex-discussion boundaries, really. :D )
I wonder if I can get my husband to shave his legs and buy some patent-leather pumps. Hmm.
