Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

The word Dominatrix now makes sense to me. It's such a neat word. I never thought of the male equivalent being simply a Dominator.

I don't think a dominatrix is for kids though.

Kristanna Lokken is: The Terminatrix

Yeah, she was called that in the movie. Summer Glau never was, but that's probably because they never actually said "Terminator" in that show due to rights issues, always calling them "machines" or "metal" or referring to them by model number.

So they were only allowed to use Terminatior in the show title?

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah. IP rights agreements are weird.

Neat call out, but what other modern examples are there?
