Book Review: Another Guide For Spicing Up One's Love Life
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is exactly what the title claims. It's definitely for newbies looking to add a little spice to the bedroom and or basement. The author recommends that readers "take your time to learn what gets you hot and bothered and rest assured that just because you like a little bit of 'tie me up with some slap and tickle' in the bedroom doesn't necessarily mean you will give up your day job and start wearing leather 24/7." The sex educator author of this tome, further "wants to encourage others to explore their sexuality in a safe way without fear of reprisal, guilt, or shame either with one partner, or several, or solo. Flirt with your urges and explore."
The author, Morpheous, who is also a Toronto-based fetish photographer/artist has illustrated this beginner's guide book with many of his own pictures. Those images are more relaxed than most fetish photography in that the models are all having a good time; smiling, giggling, smirking and enjoying their role playing. This is a big improvement over the usual images that are designed to illustrate and reinforce the erotic aspects of fantasies of pain, punishment, fear and suffering. This is also a more realist portrayal of the activities detailed in this volume. The writing style has a touch of Toronto to it and that's a good thing. One of the more unusual chapters is a step-by-step guide for the reader and his partner to safely visit a professional Dominatrix or "Domina" as well as exploring the non-professional scene. This is an excellent guide for those people who will quickly discover that they only want to add a little kink as a form of foreplay to their normal sexual relationships. There are so many kinds of kinky activities including theatrical role playing and a whole universe of desirable, very sexy fetish fashions to collect that people in long-term relationships will greatly enhance their traditional love life. Practicing a little fetish adds some spark to what may have become routine.
It provides lots of opportunities throughout the day for planning and dreaming up the next exciting fantasy session(s). It encourages new forms of creativity and communication. That kind of full-time anticipation makes the love making itself infinitely more satisfying. A little hidden bruise, hickey, scratch mark or extra tender nipple from an earlier love making session provides constant reminders of the previous night's bliss.
