Product Description
How to Capture a Mistress is a light-hearted, but aggressive approach, to mining that rare jewel, a Dominant Lady of quality, and figuring out what to do once you've found her. It will take time and dedication, but those special ladies are waiting to treasure, lead, play and discipline as necessary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rethinks the way you present yourself, December 30, 2006

By	Bill Cunningham (New York) - See all my reviews

Power exchange is at the core of most BDSM (kinky) relationships. Many men seek relationships that can safely (without personal threat) transfer power from them to a woman. However, as Ms Martin points out, there is a vast difference from a Mistress and a Bitch. This book explores those differences while it also outlines steps a man can take to re-shape himself in ways that will be more appealing to a woman who is, in her own right, seeking a submissive man.

There is another advantage to this book: Ms Martin points out that people who fill out lists of kinky activities that may or may not interest them rather limit their playing field. I'll leave it to you to buy the book and read this section on your own, but I assuure you that despite extensive reading in this field, I have never before seen such a compelling reason to re-think the process of identifying common play areas with a potential play partner. Very creative and useful.

5.0 out of 5 stars VERY EXCELLENT!, January 12, 2007

By	D. D. Durbin "Red Headed Wiccan" (Round Rock, Tx) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Ms. Martin states that you don't have to be a complete spineless male to be a submissive just that you have to feel safe and have such a level of trust that is beyond "normal" comprehension. This book also explains that being a "submissive male" doesn't make you weak just a man that is "man enough" to let go and trust a woman on a level that on the Mistress/slave can udnerstand. I have been in the BDSM scene for over 10 years and never have I read such an excellent book since "Screw the Roses" by Molly Devon.

5.0 out of 5 stars So-o-o Useful and Funny, February 3, 2007

By	Kunda Lee Wicce (Texas) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is my first review of a book. In thinking about how I would start, I found myself thinking about the author, that I would describe her as caring, intelligent, thoughtful! one of the sharpest tacks in the box, and funny! I recommend anyone looking for a mistress put themselves in her hands, throw themselves into the book, follow her instructions, do as this mistress says. It will help me (your future mistresses) notice you and see your attractive qualities! While I bought the book to learn what her advice was to men, I found myself engrossed, and learning how to be a more discerning person. She gives us all utter permission to be our better selves and have more satisfaction from it. What a fabulous book!
