I also enjoy the way Mistress Misery uses men against each other, manipulating her hapless puppets like pawns in her diabolical games. Exposing the fallacy of male solidarity, the way she uses them against their own gender exposes the fragility of brotherhood and the natural inferiority of the male sex.

And of course Mistress Misery’s predatory delight in systematically devouring her prey is profoundly erotic. As always she is the embodiment of the Femme Fatale archetype, the manifestation of the dark goddess to which all men are helplessly drawn.

I think these themes of female superiority and power are at the heart of this kind of fiction so it’s always wonderful to see them expressed in clever premises like Call of the Collar.

The slave was so enthralled by Mistress Misery’s picture and voice that he had no choice other than to submit to her control even though he did not even know her name or even meet her in person.

I liked how she laughed when he sent her the picture of him begging to be collared and leashed. I imagine her with a fishing rod and bait, watching the slaves nibble at the bait and laughing when she hooks them and pulls them out of the pond.

Mistress Misery seems to be really into male tears in the last few stories, telling her slaves that she wants pictures and videos of them crying.

She also seems to really enjoy manipulating slaves into recruiting additional slaves. Almost as if she is running a pyramid scheme or marketing scheme, where slaves that recruit other slaves can reduce their burden slightly.
