Rating:
Summary: Synopsis
Review: "In Hazing young men write about their rites of passage, tests of their ability to endure physical abuse, pain and humiliation in order to become members of an elite, a fraternity, a team, the inner circle of a tribe...

This book is about true stories and is definitely a good read for those interested in male bonding and the rites of passage. Covers both fraternity, farm and military initiations."

Summary: Cheap stories about bondage
Review: It should be noted that this book is a compilation of personal tales involving male on male bondage practices. The Publisher's Afterword gives probably the best description of the book: "All of the accounts of school, frat, team and club initiations in this book originally appeared in the reader-written male bondage magazine, Bound & Gagged, and in two of its special publications, Pledges and Paddles Volume 1 and Volume 2."

If you are looking for poorly written male on male bondage stories, you might want to read this book. However, if you are looking for any sort of academic discussion about hazing in contemporary America, do not waste your time.

Summary: Very Interesting Book
Review: Very interesting book. The stories are outrageously intense. The editors closing statement must be kept in mind when reading. These stories come from submissions to a male bondage magazine. Nonetheless, it is still super interesting.
