Dalla seconda/terza di copertina:
o his 24/7 live-in slave Patrick, and five years in service to Master Lynn, Jack Rinella is pre-eminently qualified to write the first book that fully describes the process of realizing and creating a master/slave relationship. Going well beyond the myth of fiction and the impracticality of cyber-advice, Becoming a Slave is a complete, authoritative, and well-documented book on the process of finding and submitting to the dominant of your heart’s desire. Beginning with a description of terms and the characteristics to be found in a master and in a slave, the book continues with how one realizes and understands their own desire to submit and serve, proceeds to the process of advertising, searching, meeting, and interviewing prospective partners, and ends with a great deal of practical advice on submitting, serving, and satisfying a dominant in a healthy and practical way. While recognizing the unique characteristics of individuals’ relationships, Jack gives down-to-earth advice that will lead the reader from theory to preparation and practice and into the real relationship that they seek. Though written with the slave-to-be in mind, dominants, too, will find a wealth of information to guide them in their search and selection of their sought-for submissive. Becoming a Slave is based on Jack’s intimate experience of seeking a slave, of having been a slave, and of being Patrick’s master for nearly ten years. Also included is the wisdom and practice of more than a dozen men and women active and experienced in mastery and slavery whom Jack interviewed for this book, thereby assuring guidance that fits all genders, orientations, and desires. A valuable addition to the library of both submissives and dominants, this book debunks the myths that make an M/s relationship seem impossible with a myriad of examples that illustrate exactly how and why M/s relationships can and do work. No topic is left untouched: personality traits, advertising, arranging meetings, negotiations, sadism, masochism, and sex, living in either a 24/7 or a part-time situation, finances, health issues, the meaning of service, surrender, authority, and commitment, employment, safer sex, and much more. Each chapter of the book is enhanced by heart-felt personal reflections on slavery written by slave Patrick and workbook activities that will prepare a submissive to seek and serve his or her master.
