Feminization in ancient Greco Roman mythology.
Hermes sold Herakles to Omphale, the queen of Lydia, for a price of three silver talents. Hercules enslavement was necessary to expiate murder and sacrilige.
… there are many late Hellenistic and Roman references in texts and art to Heracles being forced to do women’s work and even wear women’s clothing and hold a basket of wool while Omphale and her maidens did their spinning, as Ovid tells:[8] Omphale even wore the skin of the Nemean Lion and carried Heracles’ olive-wood club.

It often surprises me that femdom artists rarely play with myths and legends.

And then there’s Faunus, the satyr.
“According to [Ovid's] Fasti, Faunus, a woodland satyr and follower of Pan and Dionysus, tried to rape Omphale. When he entered her bedchamber at night and lifted the silk nightie he took to be the queen’s, he was amazed to feel a hairy bottom. Still, unfazed, as satyrs are wont to be, he tried to penetrate the sleeping form. That woke up Hercules, and he pushed Faunus off so hard the satyr couldn’t get up. Torches were called for, so Hercules and Omphale could see the intruder. In the light, they laughed at the satyr’s plight. So embarrassed was Faunus at being tricked by a nightie, afterwards he made all his followers come to his rites stark naked.”
I couldn’t find any painting depicting Faunus and Heracles.
