Almost a decade ago, the first Bottoming Book taught tens of thousands of people that bottoming – being a submissive, masochist, slave, “boy” or “girl”, or other BDSM recipient – is as much an art as topping.

Since then, the growing popularity of BDSM, and the blossoming of the Internet as a source of information and connection, have created a whole new universe of possibilities for players. Now, the completely updated revised New Bottoming Book gives even more insights and ideas, updated for a new millennium, about how to be a successful, popular bottom!

New sections on dominance/submission play, bridging the gap from on-line to real-time relationships, the four stages of a scene, and more.
