Sensuous Magic

Califia-Rice, Patrick
Sensuous Magic : a Guide for Adventurous Couples
New York : Masquerade Books, 1994
isbn: 1-56333-131-4
Renowned erotic pioneer Pat Califia provides this honest, unpretentious peek behind the mask of dominant/submissive sexuality - an adventurous adult world of pleasure often obscured by ignorance and fear. With her trademark wit and insight, Califia demystifies 'the scene' for the novice, explaining the terminology and technique behind many maligned but misunderstood behaviors. Focusing on the real, positive experiences of dominance/submission - either as a lifestyle or simple 'sexual spice' - Califia proves invaluable in dispelling the negative, oppressive mythology built up around S/M.

De Sadeaanse vrouw

Carter, Angela en Leonoor Broeder [vertaling]
De Sadeaanse vrouw en de ideologie van de pornografie [The Sadeian Woman]
Amsterdam : Contact, 1986
isbn: 90-254-6644-3
In de Sadeaanse vrouw geeft Angela Carter een originele interpretatie van de twee bekende romanfiguren in het werk van de beruchte pornograaf de markies de Sade (1740-1814): de deugdzame Justine en haar zuster, de slechte Juliette. Carter beschouwt de markies de Sade als een schrijver die seks gebruikte als metafoor voor de wanverhoudingen in de maatschappij; niet de liefde en genot staan bij hem centraal, maar macht, uitbuiting en geweld. In de virtuoze stijl die ook haar literaire stijl kenmerkt, toont Angela Carter in dit polemische essay aan dat in het werk van Sade bevrijdende elementen voor de vrouw te vinden zijn. Zo rekent ze af met de vooroordelen over Sade en over de pornografie in het algemeen.

 

Sadomasochism in Everyday Life

Chancer, Lynn S.
Sadomasochism in Everyday Life : The Dynamics of Power and Powerlessness ; 2nd printing
New Brunswick : Rutgers University Press, 1994
isbn: 0-8135-1808-3
Lynn Chancer advances the provocative thesis that sadomasochism is far more prevalent in contemporary societies like the United States than we realize. According to Chancer, sexual sadomasochism is only the best known manifestation of what is actually a much more broadly based social phenomenon. Moving from personal relationships to interactions in school, the workplace, and other institutions, Chancer uses a variety of examples that are linked by a recurrent pattern of behavior. She goes beyond the predominantly individualistic and psychological explanations generally associated with sadomasochism (including those popularized in the 'how to' literature) toward a more sociological interpretation. Chancer suggests that the structure of societies organized along male-dominated and capitalistic lines reflects and perpetuates a sadomasochistic social psychology, creating a culture steeped in everyday experiences of dominance and subordination.

 

Stiletto

Cox, Caroline
Stiletto
New York : Harper Design, 2005
isbn: 0-06-074813-3
Stiletto spells sex. Nothing else creates the erotically taut, arched foot or come-hither posture with breasts and bottom thrust out quite like the stiletto them. A highly charged symbol, the stiletto suggests a multitude of contradictions. It can be elegant, vulgar, submissive, aggressive, subversive, conventional. The stiletto is phallic but supremely female, it makes the wearer at once vulnerable and in control. Six decades have seen the stiletto in vogue around the world with an ever-changing, kaleidoscopic clientele of classic ladies, Hollywood stars, fetishists, punks, princesses, power- dressers, cross-dressers, A-list celebrities, and the girl next door. For the first time, Stiletto attempts to uncover the compelling lure of the needle heel.
