Well, as someone who has spent waaaaaay to much money on BDSM books, videos, DVD's and the likes, I will say that some were not worth the price I paid, some were pure unrealistic hogwash, some where mere attempts at porn charaded as BDSM, but some very enlightening and useful!! Some light fodder, some very useful for the beginner, some even producing food for thought for an old leather-codger like Me!! So, here's are some of My favorties: Books: SM 101 by Jay Wiseman Screw the Rose, Send Me the Thorns by Miller & Devon Different Loving by Dr. Gloria Brame To Love, To Obey, To Serve by Viola Johnson Videos/DVD: The Pain Game by Cleo DuBois (I worship at the alter Cleo - any video by her is a treat and chock full of enlightening knowledge!!!) Alternate Loving featuring excerpts with Dr. Gloria Brame, Master Doug and boy bob (a treat of a documentary featuring real-time lifestylers - very candid interviews!!) Anyhoooo, just a few of My favorites!!! I also highly suggest reading online info, but do take much with a grain of salt - as My motto is 75% of what you see, hear, read and even people you meet in the BDSM world are full of shit! *chuckles* But, it's that good 25% to be weeded out that are so worth the effort. Also, the suggestion to attend munches is the BEST advice for newbies!! I host a local munch here and I can attest to how valuable munches are in speaking with others who live the lifestyle, and being in a discrete environment allowing the optimum in comfort for those just starting out in BDSM.
