** So was the former. Remember, this was the song where [[PlayingToTheFetishes the keyboardist wandered on all fours in a gimp outfit]] and [[HoYay the singer pretended to sodomize him]]. They've been arrested for it in the US and ''Buch Dich'' doesn't appear on the ''Live aus Berlin'' DVD.

* ''White Poem I'' by XJapan. Both the music video and the live performance are BDSM scenes featuring YoshikiHayashi as the sub. The live performance during Dahlia Tour is unique because it is an actual domination scene with Yoshiki being actually blindfolded, cuffed, whipped, and kicked around for real... and definitely enjoying every moment of it.

** Making it a case of DidNotDoTheResearch on the singers part as there is nothing misogynistic or anti-feminist about bondage and BDSM and numerous feminists are into the lifestyle.
** Hmm. This troper always took it as an attack on tendencies to slot people into roles in life, and how this tendency screwed over women especially ("Some people think little girls should be seen and not heard, but I think -- ''oh bondage, up yours!'').

*** Well, in the late 1970s most feminists did publicly and routinely denounce BDSM as the ultimate form of misogyny, as at that time the feminists who liked it weren't speaking up. Saying anything more detailed will invite InternetBackdraft.
