Reminder: Submissive Guide Meet Up This Friday, Des Moines, IA

Hi folks! I had planned a video post for today but I’m still getting over a cold and am coughing quite frequently so that wouldn’t work out too well for a video. I’ll record it when I’m feeling better. In the meantime, I wanted to remind you that I will be in Des Moines, IA [...]

From the Submissive Guide Newsletter 2-4-12 If you can’t get out to munches in your community or conventions held around the world the next best thing is a website focused on kink education. I have nothing but praise for Kink Academy and the quality educators and topics that they cover on Kink Academy.  Here at Submissive [...]

lunaKM’s Weekend Reflections

lunaKM’s Weekend Reflections

It’s Tax Day here in the US, which means (since it falls on a Sunday) that you have until midnight Tuesday night to file your taxes or they are late! Extra days rock when you procrastinate. We mailed ours just yesterday and now we are even poorer (self-employment sucks for taxes). How did you do? [...]

Don’t Be a Shelf-Sitter

Don’t Be a Shelf-Sitter

There is a problem that is more commonly within online submission that I refer to as shelf-sitting. I have experienced it and am slowly seeing it happen to others that I know from online communities. It is sad that this is occurring but perhaps I could shed some light into what it is and perhaps [...]

[Video] Can I Access Subspace Too?

We talk about subspace a lot in our descriptions of play and scenes we may get into. As an experienced submissive I tend to forget that moment early on when I wanted so badly to experience subspace but had absolutely no clue how to get there or if I would know I had reached it [...]

The Real Truth Behind the Fear of Topping from the Bottom

There are a lot of things on the internet talking about topping from the bottom as being a bad bad submissive thing. It’s made people terrified that everything they do could be crossing that terrible line. It’s not true. I’ve mentioned it before and I’ll say it again. Bottom topping isn’t as bad as it is [...]

Where Do I Start?

This is a video post about how to get started once you decide you want to explore submission. I’d have to say that the most common question I get from people who contact me via email is “where do I start?” and I’d have to agree that it’s an overwhelming feeling when you are facing [...]

When Does Punishment Go Too Far?

This video post answers a question I got recently about the line between punishment and abuse. A year ago I did a post about BDSM and abuse and in it gave you an idea of what the difference was between consensual BDSM and abuse. A couple weeks ago I was asked if there was a [...]

[Video Post] An Epidemic: Bottom’s Disease

You and I are submissive. We desire to serve someone else in some way but that is about all that is common between the two of us. We are different. We see our personal submission taking separate roads; parallel perhaps, but separate. I hope that in our submission we make sure to continue to look [...]

Review: Ambrosio’s BDSM Site

One of the very first BDSM related websites I encountered when I was learning about it myself is still in existence and has barely changed. It has gotten bigger though. Ambrosio’s BDSM Site is a single person developed website created in 2000. Ambrosio is from Texas and has worked hard to develop and build his little corner [...]

Review: Tickle My Tush: Mild-to-Wild Analplay Adventures for Everybooty

I talk about all sorts of things on this blog, sex being one of them that needs more coverage I think  - I am also all about sharing new books with you. But you may know that already seeing as I’ve reviewed over 20 books so far.  So when the folks at Tickle Kitty contacted me to [...]

Review: TakeninHand.com

Website reviews are going to be a little different than the book reviews just because the media and content is presented differently. The first website that was suggested to me for a review on this site is Taken in Hand. In fact it was the only suggestion so those of you who have a favorite [...]

Review: SM 101

One of the most comprehensive books on BDSM activities has to be SM101 by Jay Wiseman. It’s not your usual general BDSM reader, but a detailed safe play primer with so many ideas on what you can do with your partner that I even had new fantasies to bring to KM’s attention. SM101 is one [...]
