Amazon.com Review
If you are kinky, male or female, straight, bi or gay, and you don't have this book, you need to get it. Written as a storm was raging about feminism, SM, and being lesbian, this offers honest and explicate discussions of how lesbian SM worked. There's advice on how to do some activities, discussions of the politics of SM, and also some very in-your-face theory about being kinky and defining relationships. It's a book I've read several times. It is very short, mind you, but so worth the price to get your hands on articles you just can't find any more.
