The term "Dolcett" (pronounced "dol-SHET") has two intertwined meanings. Originally, it is the pseudonym of a Canadian comic artist who was active in the underground BDSM scene in the 1980s. His work, which consisted primarily of black-and-white line drawings, depicted extreme scenarios of female subjugation, execution, and cannibalism. Dolcett was part of a private network that exchanged extreme sexual fantasies through letters and BDSM magazines.
