As Kinky as You Wanna Be - Your Guide to Safe, Sane and Smart BDSM

Millions of people got interested in adding the spice of kink into their lives thanks to the tsunami of books including Fifty Shades of Grey and many many more. A great many of these readers live far away from Good Vibrations or Babeland where the staff are all trained, sex-positive educators. Stories of hand-cuff related injuries and kink gone wrong are legion, and inspired author Shanna Germain to pen her "do try this at home" guide to going from vanilla to full-fledged BDSM babe.

As Kinky As You Wanna Be is not an instruction book. It won't teach someone how to build a crop, tie ropes around their squirming lover, or choose the proper lube. What it will teach users is something else entirely: how to be a kinky person who has safe, sane, and smart BDSM experiences. Like a tourist's guide to BDSM, As Kinky As You Wanna Be offers a road map to the kinky self.

This book will help users discover which kinky countries to visit, give tips and techniques on the language of BDSM, and help navigate the customs and rituals of being a kinky person in the community. With sections on discovering pleasures; talking about kink with a partner, family or doctors; staying physically and mentally safe; putting kinky dreams into practice; and dealing with difficult situations, As Kinky as You Wanna Be will serve as a guide, confidant, and expert resource. In addition to writing by author Shanna Germain, the book features informative interviews with BDSM experts such as Jay Wiseman and Lee Harrington and is sprinkled with stories from top erotica authors like Janine Ashbless and Rachel Kramer Bussel, that put everything into a deliciously kinky context.
