Some people gain sexual pleasure by getting spanked, whipped, tied upon and by dripping hot candlewax on their skin.Some enjoy losing control and shifting the power to their dominant partner, to obey orders and maybe get punished for their misdeeds - and sometimes for no apparent reason. Some are aroused by being verbally or physically humiliated during sex, and others enjoy playing the role of a pet, a fictional character, or a slave. All of these BDSM desires and the psychological basis behind them are explored throughout this book. This book consists of two parts: The first contains personal narratives from self-identified BDSM practitioners, based on interviews the author have conducted with these individuals. Throughout this section we will learn of their sexual desires, how they developed those desires, whether or not these desires were acted upon and in what form and type of relationships, and the challenges they faced. Every story is accompanied by detailed illustrations. In the second part, the current state of knowledge available on sexual sadomasochism and the scientific literature of this field will be reviewed. In this section, we will get acquainted with some of the main definitions and theories of BDSM. It also gives the reader references to resources they can explore in order to learn more about the topic.
