Format:Paperback
I don't usually gravitate towards the dominance side of bdsm but I did have a lover at one time who wished to explore his own submissive nature. This book is an excellent education for any woman or man, for that matter, who is interested in experiencing female dominance. This is not a simple overview of female dominance or bdsm techniques but a true manual that takes you through the evolution of becoming a Mistress and the enacting of fantasy with your male partner. If you are new to the concept of female dominance this is an excellent book to guide you through the pleasure and pain of being the ultimate Nursemaid, Governess, Queen, Amazon, or Goddess. The book is broken into three main sections: Becoming a Mistress, The Mistress in Action, and The Five Archetypal Fantasies.

Becoming a Mistress brings light to idea of female dominance and the pleasure that can come from command while also discussing the psychological aspects of dominance and finding a partner to explore your fantasies. I enjoyed this section immensely since so many factors concerning personal guilt and relationships are addressed in regards to female dominance. If you're new to the sensual art of dominance you will gather a great deal of self-awareness and understanding in this section concerning bdsm and female dominance

The Mistress in Action begins the real sexual play of dominance between you and your male partner. From the language of dominance to the ties that bind you'll learn some basics that you can expand on with additional reading. This is an excellent book for the novice domme. Once you and our submissive discover specific items that are enjoyable I highly recommend SM101 by Jay Wiseman to explore more techniques and in-depth understanding of BDSM.

The Five Archetypal Fantasies are The Nursemaid, The Governess, The Queen, The Amazon, and the Goddess. Each archetype is outlined from elements of the fantasy, skills needed in the fantasy, enacting the perfect scenario, and variations of each fantasy. If you're unsure how to begin this section will eliminate all doubts. This is a step by step how to from what you should be thinking to create the fantasy to what to wear.

Another great part of this book is that conflict between fantasy choice between you and your submissive is discussed and addressed thoroughly so that everybody wins so you can move on to the sensual art of female dominance. As I mentioned I don't gravitate to dominance but if I ever needed to help someone fulfill their fantasy to be dominated by a Nursemaid, Governess, Queen, Amazon, or Goddess I know exactly how to take control now that I've read The Mistress Manual.

An excellent start 7 May 2001

Format:Paperback
Having fantasised about having a girlfriend properly understand what pleasures a mistress/ sub relationship holds it was refeshing to find a book that sums it up so neatly. I tentatively bought it for a new girlfriend and, taking heart from what I read (the style and content are wonderfully well written) gave it to her. Once over the initial surprise we read it together and now have some fantastic mistress/ slave scenarios. She testify's to the books persuasive nature and loves the in-depth descriptions of different scenes. My bottom testifies to that!

This book is only useful if you happen to have a partner who fits the stereotyped male submissive that Lorelei has based 99% of her book on. She appears to base most of her assumptions off of those who pay for Mistress services or vague anecdotes that she doesn't back up with any kind of reference. My partner does not desire to be turned into a sissy maid, feel at all inclined towards fetishistic transvestism nor does he want to be dressed up as an adult baby. That just about rules out using the Archetype section. We have absolutely no inclination to make up scripts, get outfits and make stage sets to play out little games either, which seems to be the brand of Dominance being peddled here.

There was no real discussion about submissiveness, why men feel submissive (plenty about why they SHOULD be submissive) nor was there particularly practical advice on female dominance. I could have assumed I can be however I want to be without paying for a book to tell me that.

This is a book about role play, fetish psychodrama and fantasy. It's not about Dominance, submission or of any practical use in the relationship sense.

I'm not even going to bother keeping it. I'm sending it back for exchange for something better.
