From The Introduction: "Perhaps you reached for this book because you've been having fantasies of being tied up and you wondered if you should really "do something about that." Maybe you've found your partner has been looking at some rather intense BDSM websites and you'd like to understand "why." Or maybe a lover has asked for you to spank them and you didn't have a clue as to how to reply. All you have right now are questions... starting with "What is BDSM about?"
This book is not yet another primer on the practice of BDSM. There are many fine publications dedicated to the subject of BDSM ~ should you decide that's how you want to proceed with your sex life...
Our goal here is not to 'get you into BDSM' but rather it is to enlighten, to promote understanding, about BDSM."
This is a collection of articles, some original and some previously seen at Sex-Kitten.Net, on the topic of BD/SM. Far from a 'how to' manual, the anthology aims to give an inexperienced reader a taste of what BD/SM culture looks and feels like.
"How do you decide if and when BDSM is right for you? Do you really want to be tied up? Is now the time to spank your lover's behind? Or should these acts remain fantasies for masturbation?
We can't tell you what your answers are, or what they should be ~ but we can tell you what we know. And we trust that you are smart enough to figure out what is right for you."
