Summary: Best book ever written on the subject
Review: I bought this book when it was first published by Berkana Press. It had the best information on female domination anywhere. Lorelei presents the subject with seriousness, practicality, good nature and convincing argument. The chapter on why is priceless. Her classification of fetishes is very scholarly.

Summary: Early Intro to D/s
Review: If your lover has asked you to engage in BDSM or erotic roleplay and you've never really had an interest yourself OR you are the lover and you're looking for a little intro book to help out your would-be-domme, this book could be helpful for you. The author has put in considerable effort to explain the why's and how's of Dominance/submission - and tries to make it seem okay/"normal" to someone who may be nervous or concerned about engaging in BDSM or erotic roleplay.

However, if you have even the slightest dominant inclination, interest or experience, this book will be a waste of time and money. If you are already into BDSM and feel good about it, then you've already passed this book by.

Summary: Excellent with a smile
Review: In a lot of ways, this is simply a reprinting of an earlier guide self-published back in 1994. Its sad how few things have changed. The target audience of the book are monogamous and het couples who practice role-playing where the woman is the "top" and the man is the "bottom". Role-playing is the key here; the book will not tell you how to do 24/7 or switch or even just be yourself. The book contains two apparent contradictions: the fantasies discussed are "male" but women are told to do only what makes them feel good. Frankly, I don't think the five main fantasies (nursemaid, governess, queen, Amazon, and goddess) are necessarily "male" and realisticly if the focus is time and again on figuring out what the man wants, how can a woman figure out what she wants. The fact is that Lorelei is correct: relationships take compromise but that doesn't equal sacrifice from either party.

Summary: A great guide to the world of FemDom
Review: Lorelei has written a number of excellent books about Female Domination. I also enjoyed "Charm School for Sissy Maids".

Lorelei and Elise Sutton (author of "Female Domination") seem to have a great comprehension about the submissive desires of males. Female Domination is a common male fantasy but at some point, a man might want to make it a reality by discussing his desires with the woman in his life. This book would be an excellent book to give to the novice woman as she begins her journey into the fascinating world of Female Domination.

Summary: Not Just a Good Read, But a Beginner's Reference Manual
Review: Many books will show you how to be a dom, but few will tell you why. This book accurately explains some of the psyches of the sub. When you understand the motivations behind your scene, the enactment is much more enjoyable for both parties. It is a great beginner book, but also a good read for mid-level doms (and subs) as it is articulate in explaining the emotional state of the submissive in different contexts.

Summary: From a full-time slave
Review: This is so accurate to my desires as a slave that I cannot believe this is written by a woman.Is this a pseudonym .In the beginning of the book it says "do not let your slave read this". As if a male slave can stand up to a woman even if we know her secrets.When my dom cries she has me crying even though I know woman cry often to gain an edge over men.I think every man should serve a woman.It would be a better world.with no wars. It is so gratifying ,after 14 years of being trained ,to finally be at the point of total submission. My dom can make me do anything.In the beginning this was a temporary game.Now we are near full-time dom sub.The only thing I disagree with is the book makes it sound like it is a make-believe game.Even if it is,I guess it started as a game for us,good behavior is bound to spill over into real life.My wife gets more gifts out of me as a result of this training. I worried in the beginning that if I submit that my life will get tuffer and tuffer (and I would never be free) .I do my chores but I smile as I think of our agreement "I get to cum for total obedience "(I thought I would get intercourse,But I have given up control of when and how I get to cum) and this is all the motivation a man needs to be enslaved.As far a freedom goes I don't want it .I wouldn't trades my life for any other. ...

Summary: Excellent introduction to the world of female dominance!
Review: Without getting too personal, I was drawn to buying this book because of some personal growth and realizations about myself and my sexuality. The fantasies and thoughts in this book, some of them already existed somewhere within my subconscious, but reading this book gave them some release. This book is well-written and very detailed. The first chapters deal with the psychological/emotional aspects of wanting to be a dominant woman or having feelings of domaninance as a woman in society. (Nice girls don't want to hit men, right?) The book details the five archetypes of dominating women (Nurse, Teacher, Queen, Amazon, and Goddess) and how each has different fantasies and scenes. The scenes in this book are excellent, and I would recommend that you take a little bit from each and tailor them to suit your (and your partner's) needs. I would definitely recommend this book to any woman who is drawn to the BDSM lifestyle and wants to learn how to top effectively.
