Well written but none of the stories are too long. It was fun to fantasize about being in the stories myself and how I would react. Great book. Actually the sories that do go on the longest are the best. All those lucky guys. Touches on all aspects of D&S but is easy to read. Many of the stories are very erotic and aroused me.
Take for example the story of Jonathan who tries to be assertive to his girl just so he can participate in a three way with her and a friend or Henry who has fantasies of serving Loretta but is afraid the idea will scare her away from him, The there is Matthew who lives out his fantasy by working for Ms, Davis, his powerful boss, who makes him take care of the office and HER. There are plenty of situations here and all of the stories are great. Basically what the book does is show that pleasure best comes from the hand of the woman.
¡§Yes Ma¡¦am: Erotic Tales of Male Submission¡¨, Cleis Press, 2008.Female Dominance and Male SubmissionAmos LassenLet¡¦s turn the tables for a bit and read these 18 stories, all by different authors. Anyone who finds the idea of a sexy yet powerful top woman will find pleasure in these stories. Bussel, Rachel Kramer.
The cover of the book lets you know what to expect inside (and it is suitable for framing º). This is unlike anything you have ever read before and it is totally erotic. Here the women are in charge and the men seem to love it.
The women are assertive and powerful yet they love their men and have fun with them.
For those who are usually in the submissive position, whether male of female, these stories are highly relatable and capture the essence of longing to be and actually being controlled. A celebration of female strength, both inside the bedroom and out, Yes Ma'am is enticing and startling, particularly to the uninitiated. Whether you want to spy on boys getting dominated, or you want to share the experience of being a submissive male or sexually powerful woman, Yes Ma'am will arouse and provoke. The men of Yes Ma'am all have an unquenchable thirst to be subordinated by a strong woman.
This is one of the attributes that I appreciated as a reader, the fact that the book that it was not as "heavy handed" as other authors that have written on the subject. The least I liked was "Zero Sum Game". Does the authors deliver. I would say yes. In a nutshell: If you are not afraid on reading about those obscure corners of the human sexuality, You will enjoy these stories too. Being English my second language, I can also state that advanced ESL students should be able to read this book without too much trouble (ESL at the high school to college, keeping in mind the subject at hand).The stories in the book do tell different aspects of the "female domination" lifestyle.
1 IntroductionThe book is short stories anthology that narrates sexual interactions between men and women in which the common theme is the one of women assuming a dominating role (physical or psychological) upon submissive males. 2 Technical CommentaryThe book is well redacted with colloquialism restrained only where they were needed. In this case my favorite story was "Tea for Three". 4 ConclusionI would certainly recommend the book for people that might be interested in the subject because of the variety of situations that deal with the central subject. However my fears were put to rest after I kept reading through the book. The editor should pat herself on keeping readability up. All the stories narrate the story from the submissive male perspective. It is a coincidence that one of the books I have recently read were the Bradbury's Martian Chronicles.
In some cases there are no sexual situation to speak of because the story is dealing with the psychological aspect of domination rather than the physical one. I found it formulaic and laden with what you expect in a "dominatrix movie"; an odd choice for it to be the first story of the book. I personally think that It was witty and unexpected which is just what I look when I read a collection of short stories. However, be mindful that if you have morality qualms on the subject, you are advised to move along. The book expands from the customary imaging of the female domination theme by telling different types of male domination fantasies in which by doing so, keeps the the interest of the reader as it goes through the stories.3 Subjective CommentaryShort stories are also "like a box of chocolates (to paraphrase Forest Gump)".
Yes, there are explicitly sexual situations through out the book, but they are all tastefully written. Even though it is a well written piece of literature, I can assure you that you will certainly not enjoy it.If readers are looking for an anatomy class, this may not be the book for you either. Even though the subject at hand is different, all short stories share the same attributes of being, capable of delivering its message in a small number of pages, stories must be, in a way "memorable", and usually have interesting twist and turns through the story. I have to admit that I got apprehensive after going through it because it sets the expectation on how the rest of the book was going to be.
There's always the one you'll like and the one that you do not. for the most part. Thankfully, it does not constraint itself in describing the typical "dungeon dome" wearing leather with a full array of torture devices.
Overall, an interesting view into malesub desires and dreams, told entirely from the malesub perspective.Some of the stories were cool enough that they could have been much longer (and therefore that much more titillating)., like "A Different Kind of Reality Show." And some of them, like Alyson Tyler's "Flash," were perfect and perfectly wonderful as they were.Some of them definitely needed to be filed in the "Don't try this at home, kids." ("i 1t u 2 do sumfin 4 me") but reading about stuff that is seriously taboo like this made those particular stories even hotter.Certainly staying on my keeper shelf for those moments of relaxation.And I think a fascinating exercise would be to read "Yes, Ma'am," "Yes, Sir," "She's on Top," and "He's on Top," just to see the shifting tones and voices, turn-ons and hotness in the different perspectives. This was a great anthology of well-chosen and well-written stories.
