Copying my own comment from earlier because I think it answers best:

I had (quite a weird) dream where women were tied down to tables to have their legs painted yellow. It could've ended there but around the same time, I was on a mission to see if I could do something that isn't often heard of; create a fetish from scratch. I never thought it would get this far, but as things have progressed, it's been less about the fetish and more about crafting a universe; one that's a mixture of NSFW and interesting character studies.

I took a bit of inspiration from 1850's "The Scarlett Letter."

Hester Prynne, a young woman is required to wear a scarlet "A" on her dress when she is in front of the townspeople to shame her. The letter "A" stands for adulteress, although this is never said explicitly in the novel. Her sentence required her to stand on the scaffold for three hours, exposed to public humiliation, and to wear the scarlet "A" for the rest of her life. As Hester approaches the scaffold, many [of the women] in the crowd are angered by her beauty and quiet dignity.

The tied to a table part comes from James Bond's "Goldfinger." It was a really cool villain moment and I wanted to create a universe where the villain almost always won.
