[A great set of articles about BDSM issues from Veteran BDSM Player, Wizdomme]
From WizDomme….
This is a collection of text files, many of which were originally posted on AOL message boards at various times over the years.These files have been gathered together and added to over time into this D/s “newbie pack” and similar versions that have been widely distributed to those seeking information.
This “newbie pack” was first posted on this site in 1997. Since then it’s been updated and revised, and hundreds of web sites have posted similar versions (or just copied from here, often snipping author credits for some reason…) While this isn’t proprietary content, it is protected by copyright of the respective authors and Wizdomme Pages. Please feel free to link to this site, but don’t take stuff without asking, thanks.
Many of these posts are written using male or female terminology,
but the concepts apply to all genders and orientations equally.
