So a great thread on Domspace, thanks to all the contributors. I do hope we were able to add insight to those seeking more information.

This time we are going to discuss education in a BDSM context. If you are new to BDSM, thats great, tell us your goals, if you have 99 years in BDSM, thats outstanding, please tell us of your trek through the lifestyle. My goal to this education thread is to compile everyones educational resources, where they learned what they learned. Did you get your education from Dominants/submissives you dealt with? Perhaps you got your education strictly from books, perhaps you got it strictly online. Wherever you got your education, help us expand our resources.

There are a few obvious places to get education that I will start with.

For online:

Aesop's Tips For Beginners

Castle Realm

From the book store:

Different Loving by Author Gloria Brame

Screw the Roses, Send Me the Thorns by Authors Philip Miller & Molly Devon

People are into BDSM for a wide range of reasons, many are into it because their particular fetish crosses roads with aspects of BDSM. Regardless of why you are interested in BDSM, or what level of education you have for BDSM. I would love to hear what you have learned, and where you got your education. What bad experiences you have had, and what good ones you have had.

I now turn this thread to you, please educate us!

V/R (very respectfully)
