Preface
WarriorPrincess Submissives. I love them.I really and trulydo.
Myfascination with them is likely rooted in my twenty years ofmilitary service, some of it assigned to special operations units.I saw up-close and personal what happens to people who dont fightfor what they want out of life, people who relegate the battle forjustice to others.What, you may betempted to ask, happens to them?
Nothing.
Awholelotof nothing. Nothinggood, anyway.
I love andadmire warriors of all stripes,whether or notthey are submissives. The fact that awarrior may be a submissive, too, is just icing on the cake. Andyes, Dominants like to have their cake and eat it, too. Thatspretty much what being a Dominant isall about.We like to think we can have itall,do itall.Thereisonething, however, that asubmissivewill always be able to do better than anyDominant on Earth. What is that onething?
That onething isthe ability tospeak as a submissive, for submissives.
You may notknow it yet, but thats why youre reading this book. Thats whyIwrotethis book. You and I, were going toaccomplish somethingbigtogether,whether you reallywantto or not,whether youre awarrioror not.Isnt that just like a Dom?I dont evenknowyou and, yet,here I am telling you what youre going todo.
I canpredict the end result because, as Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. oncequipped, A mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains itsoriginal dimensions. You cantunreadthis book, orunknowwhat you will read on these pages.Imcountingon thatand on the fact that you will be changed by it. If were lucky,certain societal perceptions will also be changed over time, aswell.
There is apernicious notion held by many that being a submissive means beingavictimor adoormat. Theso-calledFiftyShadesphenomenon givesthis repulsive lie some very long legs, spreading it far and wideand giving it unwarrantedcredibility. Thisfallacy must be exposed for what it is. It is adespicableliethatmischaracterizes and tarnishes millions of good people living ahealthy and enjoyable lifestyle. At the same time, it underminesthe feminist cause, promotesrape culture, andultimatelyrevictimizestruevictimsof the very realproblems of sexual abuse and violence in thiscountry.
Were goingtofixthat, you andI.
Lets get toit, then.
Petrocles: Some people consider methe king of sweet-talk.

Gabrielle: Ionce talked a Cyclops out of his dinner. And I was thedinner.
Petrocles: Italked Xena intomarryingme...
Gabrielle:You can keep your crown.

How to Read This Book
I am toldthat a preface, a how to read this book section, and anintroduction each serve a distinctly different and necessaryfunction. Consequently you, dear reader, are stuck today with oneof each.
I typicallydespise the condescending practice of telling people how theyshould read a book,anybook. If youreanything likeme, youre going toread this book however you damn well please. Igetthat. I reallydo. I dont likesounding like abook-reading-instruction-nazi.There are, however, some compelling reasons for the advice that Iam about to share with you, which I will share with younow.
WhenDomination & Submission: The BDSM Relationship Handbook - ahefty tome ofpages - waspublished, there were some readers who would reach a passage,topic, or chapter in the book that did not interestthem,and would simplystop reading the book altogether.They apparently did not understandthatthis was not anovel. It was a lot morelike areferencebook. It didnt need tobe read in any particular sequence. You reallycouldjust skip ahead to the next chapterwithout missing anything critical to your appreciation of the workas a whole. You could probably start with thefinalchapter and work your way back to thefront without any problem at all.
Heck, itmight even readbetterthatway.
As long aswere talking about the back of the book, I would also like topoint out that after the final chapter there is a glossary ofterms, some random silly Michael Makai quotes, and a short authorbiography. For those of you who sometimes find myverbiagechoices a little toohoighty-toity, theglossary can be an extremely valuable resource which really shouldbe referred to often. For many, the glossary can be an entertainingread on its own.
There weresome readers of the previous volume who had read to the last pageof the final chapter and then put the book aside, without eversuspecting that there were almost fifty more pages of some prettygood stuff tucked away back there. I would advise you to just keepreading until you find yourself at the beginning ofmy
