I am fine with others finding feminism where I don't. I did notice the discrepancy between how a sub was treated in Helen's story and how a top was treated. The big difference was I didn't find enough evidence in the story to convince me that was the point. I dismissed it because it seemed highly inappropriate to assign feminist issues about our society on a fictional D/s culture. It leads to all sorts of inappropriate responses because it was referring to another story in which it had nothing whatsoever to do with such a topic. I still don't understand the purpose in bringing that other story up in the first place. I concentrated on the relationship because that is how I related to the story since it in fact did bring up another story in which the relationship was the key issue.
