Format:Paperback
Elise Sutton is a intelligent and a compassionate observer of the gamut of activities which take place under the name of Female Domination. This book is filled with first-person real-life accounts from many different couples. In a way this books is Studs Terkel for dominants and submissives.
Hearing the words of the many men and women for whom this life is fulfilling, affirming, and in fact loving, dispels the ugly distortion of the D/s lifestyle which is so prevalent in the mainstream media. In this book you hear from the real people for which Female Domination is a very positive way of life.
If you are a submissive man trapped on the threshold between acting your dream or staying in the closet forever, you really should read this book. If you are a dominant woman, or a woman who thinks she might be one, you might benefit from and enjoy this book as well.

For years I had wanted to confess to my Wife that I was a 'closet submissive'. I desperately wanted her to dominate me but was scared to approach the subject with her. I had bought many books on Female dominance but Elise Sutton's 'Female Domination' is by far the best. It was the only book I felt I could show my Wife in the hope that she might understand my desire. She was a little apprehensive so I asked her to just read the introduction, nothing more. Now she can't put the book down! She loves it and is really racing through it. The book explains why men need to be dominated. It also explains, from a Woman's point of view the advantages of being dominant, and there are many!. Thanks to this book, both of our lives have improved. It is the perfect 'ice breaker' for a potential submissive to give to the woman in his life and I cannot recommend it highly enough!

a little background: elise sutton is a female supremacist. she believes women are superior to men.
there are some good things about the book. she attempts to stress "loving female authority" rather than the cruel, unloving variety, which is always good, although as i will explain, i feel her form of love is shallow. the lifestyle she advocates enables some men with powerful desires to integrate their secret fantasies with their real lives, reducing their inner conflict, their deviousness and their shame.
however, i find the whole concept of female dominance as a 'lifestyle' quite depressing. what it basically advocates is that a person's entire life, psyche and belief system rearranged around their sexual desires. there is more to life! i think what this book has the danger of feeding into sex addiction, which is a very real disorder, like alcoholism, drug abuse and other forms of addiction.
also, whilst she stresses loving female authority, in many cases i think men's fantasies around this area are quite masochistic. they are based on self-hatred and feelings of inferiority, and the dom/sub relationship and S&M activities only amplify these feelings. there are deeper psychological issues that need to be resolved or managed, not amplified. the fact that sutton masquerades as a compassionate, loving psychotherapist who can see into your brain seems quite dangerous to me. what some men need is not to have their desires met, but challenged. by selling them some half-baked philosophy about female supremacy, just because it turns on the man and gives sutton a power trip, seems exploitative to me.
i also take issue with the idea that true service to a person (i.e. to females) is just pleasing and pleasuring them. this is an act of erotic love, not compassion. a person's real psychological needs are not to become controlling, dominant, egotistical or arrogant people - no matter how sexy that is - but for them to grow and develop as people. this includes encouraging them to be humble, to care about others and to serve others sometimes. genuine happiness, self-esteem and concern for others can only arise in this balanced way.
for myself, i want to keep a balanced life. i find female dominance a turn on, but it should stay in the realm of fantasy. i'm not eliminating it from my life entirely, but am prepared to accept paradox in my life and not to give up my deeper values, which are that people should love each other as equals and that there's more to life than eroticism.
