Book Reviews of Story of O
Book Review: "A change of lifestyle book!" by Chris McDonald.
Summary: 5 Stars
I read the Story Of O when I was in my early twenties, ( I'm now 46). It was to change the whole way I thought about myself. Since I was a child I had been fascinated by stories involving war and, more specifically, torture. I looked for that theme wherever I dwelled in fantasy story-telling land. I had always thought of my appetite for pain and suffering (in others, as I am a true dominant) as being sick, depraved, non-conformist(?) evil. Then I read " O " It taught me that pain and pleasure can, and do, exist side by side. That love can, and often should be, physically painful. That: because it is sexually stimulating to whip, or bind, chain and humiliate the one you love it does not mean that you hate them, or wish to somehow make them suffer for pain that you have felt; but rather that you love and trust them enough to share your innermost desires.
I have been fortunate enough to teach the secrets of dominance and submissiveness to the woman I love and we now share that most precious of gifts: Trust. She knows that for every stroke of the whip or crop, there will be a lingering kiss, a breath of passion to quench the fires of stinging pain. All because I read The Story Of O. Thank you Pauline Reage.
