Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2017

One of the few BDSM books I've bought online and loved.

People new to the scene will find a lot of useful information about impact play in general. This book covers the basics of consent, escalation, aftercare, etc.There are narratives going over different ways a scene could play out and how to deal with it. I'm not a complete novice, but this was a great presentation anyway- very comfortable concepts and discussions leading to less familiar ones as it got more to technique.

As for the flogging-specific information, it's pretty thorough. If you have no idea where to start with actual implements or flogging someone, you'll find some answers. That said, reading this book isn't a replacement for experience- no book could be. I don't say that as a PSA exactly- just that I realized after reading this book that there are many, many things I"m going to actually have to work up the guts to try out at a play party before I really understand them. But this book has given me much more confidence to try that out!

I don't know how more experienced players will feel about this book, but if you think you have something to gain form a book about flogging, you probably do.

Great for those new to the art of flogging...

Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2011

There are not really many books on the topic of flogging and, basically, it seems to be that flogging is a staple of the BDSM community. It is because of this deficiency in the M/s, D/s or BDSM lifetsyle community that books like Mr. Bean's "Flogging" are excellent tools for those who want to explore this practice and possibly incorporate it into their lifestyle practices.

The book is thin and can be digested rather quickly; the author does well to introduce the reader not only on certain techniques of flogging but on the important support aspects as well such as care for your tools, addressing needs and care for your subject, and the psychology and practice behind pre-scene, the scene itself and the aftercare after the scene.

I would recommend though that if you are considering this book because you have an interest in flogging or incorporating flogging into your lifestyle practices or you just want to explore flogging as a new way of playing with your partner, you may also, at time of purchase, obtain Mr. Bean's companion video training system titled "Flogging: The Basics and Beyond (SMTech Educational)" which can also be ordered through Amazon. The DVD will provide you with the visual tools necessary to get the written instruction you obtained in his book down properly.

Good for beginners

What do you expect from a person who is doing flogging for 3+ decades? You expect some hints, "secrets", details. Don't tell me that it's impossible to explain these things in writing. People in Russia (where BDSM is much younger as subculture!) can and I don't believe that the language of Shakespeare is poorer. But what do you find? Some general info about flogging. Finding a partner, negotiations and all the stuff that is described much better in many other books. When it comes to flogging itself, probably only 1/4 of a book is devoted to the topic. It's a pity. But 3 stars is not for this. At least nobody promised the book for an "advanced user" (though I don't think I am the one). The fact is that the book is somewhat clumsy in general. Appendix B repeats some info from the book itself and from Appendix A. The explanations are based on 4 different scenes of which only one and a half describe flogging itself, not cleaning devices by a slave or arrogant but useless Top-woman. Etc...

In fact if you have some fantasies but know nothing about flogging the book will be useful. If you have at least some knowledge, don't waste your time.

Not really knowing much about properly approaching this subject and needing advice on furthering my knowledge on this I was pleasently surprised at the content of this book. The scenarios presented were deverse and enlightening. I was impressed with the knowledge and resources of the author. This book has helped my wife and mines "adventures" on the subject.
Thanks.

Needs a good copy-editing job. Other than that-it's a great read. Engaging, and clearly informative. A great reference of the curious, or general principle set for the frequent players and more serious practitioners. Organization could be better, but it is clear enough.

No DVD

I have not read the book although it looks like it may be good. I just wanted people to know that this DOES NOT come with the DVD anymore. I would return it but it's not worth it since I do want the book. It just sucks that so many mentioned it has the dvd only to order the new expensive book hoping it would have the dvd and to not get it.

This short book is the best discussion of the art of contact play I have seen. It is a sensible and informative foundation for the novice flogger or flogger.

Flogging by Joseph Bean

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 7, 2010

Verified Purchase

As a relatively experienced Domme I enjoy flogging, as do most BDSM (Bondage and sado- masochism)- practicioners. I bought this book looking for new tips and inspiration, and boy, did I get some! This book has plenty of helpful facts and ideas from beginners to experienced players.

It includes a few scenarios (Both gay and straight) and uses them to explain different techniques, possibilities and helps you prevent making beginners mistakes. I wish I had this book when I started experimenting with BDSM, I would have come a lot further in less time.

The writer frequently urges you to get experience and practice techniques to become the best Top you can be for your partner and I think that`s great! Practice is key to flogging, and it will be fun for the Domme or Dom to see his or her progress as they get more and more accurate and get better control of their whip or flogger.

The book includes some heavy scenes, and someone who wants to use flogging as just a small way to spice things up their love life will probably think the book is too long and includes too many details.

I found the book to be inspiring and packed with useful facts. I would reckommend it to anyone interested in flogging. Even though it is mostly aimed at the tops, bottoms will also benefit from reading it.
