Summary of Matthew Larocco's Dom's Guide To BDSM Vol. 1

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 BDSM, which is short for Bondage, Domination, Submission, and Masochism, has been around for as long as human beings have developed superior intelligence. It is based on the master-slave dynamic, which is still present in many relationships today. #2 BDSM, while it is a voluntary relationship today, still retains the appearance of total domination by the master.
The master's unquestioning and absolute power is the basis for this relationship, though of course, the dynamic today is a little more complex than Nero or Caligula demanding everyone strip naked for their amusement. #3 BDSM is just the latest in a long line of practices that involve pain and pleasure, and it is not a perversion of royalty, but a PLEASURE for both the slave and the master. #4 BDSM is a modern behavior that stems from 18th and 19th century sexuality.
It is clear why the master enjoys it, but what about the slave enduring the emotional and physical abuse.
