The BDSM powerhouse got the nod for Fetish Studio of the Year, Progressive Web/Tech Company of the Year,  Adult Site of the Year – Membership (Multi-Genre) and Specialty/Alternative Site of the Year.

“Of course, we are delighted and honored to get four nominations this year,” said Colin Rowntree, Wasteland founder.

He added, “After our sweep in 2011 of some of the major awards from various news outlets, I had thought that we might give the younger lads a chance this year. But, here we are again. I suppose our hard work and thinking outside the box since 1995 helps a lot, and we are again humbled and honored to get this sort of recognition from the industry that we have worked so hard to foster and help develop over the years.”

John Stagliano’s ambitious, scalding, kink-drenched, epic-like The Fashionistas arguably is the best adult film of the year. Clearly the pinnacle of Stagliano’s illustrious career. The Fashionistas is the finest hardcore-meets-BDSM story-oriented porn production ever. ~ AVN, Mike Ramone

There is a risk. If she falls, she WILL break her ankles. While you can easily prevent that from actually happening be securing her to the ceiling with a rope, that will not take the fear away. Besides, since any movement will immediately hurt her ankles, that fear is re-enforced several times per minute!

If you plan to have a session with footstocks you MUST make sure her body is sufficiently secured so she cannot fall and her legs can never make a fatal angle to the stocks themselves. The potential risk of broken ankles and legs is VERY serious and you may cripple her for life if you do not secure her. Especially any action that will create contact between the board and the front of the legs is extremely painful. That may very well spark counter reactions that are entirely unpredictable, hence securing is a must.

Even if you are a hard sadist, don’t think that securing her will take any of the cruelty out of the situation. It will not. In fact, it will signal that she, although safe, is probably going to be in this demanding and humiliating position for a long time, which – to her – will only make things worse. Her genital area is fully exposed and ready for either torture or sexual stimulation. both of which will trigger movement and as a result: pain.

And there is another thing to consider: it more than a little likely that the skin will be chafed. Lining the hole with leather will prevent most of this, but bruises are likely to be the result no matter how hard you try to prevent them and the ankles and legs will be sore for several days after, especially if it is going to be a long session.

The final thing bear in mind: standing for a longer period of time may invoke fainting. That is not what you want to see happen to a slave in footstocks, so observe your slave at all times. Secondly, standing with the legs apart may be very demanding for people with (previous) back and hip injuries.

Now, it is a fact that many of the people that I have played with were not “in the scene” when I first met them. However, for those who had an interest it was easy for us to communicate our mutual curiosity without being too obvious about our negotiations. Thus, either of us would be able to back out without anything being said that might later be a matter of regret.

For example, a provocative, bratty attitude on the part of your new love may be the consequence of poor upbringing, or it may be an opening move.  Do not get exasperated; stay calm and centered, and suggest that “there would seem to be a public spanking about to happen here very soon”.  Watch her eyes.   Do you detect a gleam, instantly repressed, perhaps?

Later, half-undressed, poised in those numinous moments between suggestion and consummation, pleasure one nipple and gently but insistently apply pressure to the other between finger and thumb. Is she open to the conflicting sensations, uncertain perhaps, yet allowing herself to explore the experience and her reaction to it?

When lust engages and engulfs, when hormones and exercise have opened the doors of intimacy, try shielding her sight with a hand over her eyes.  Pin her wrist to the pillow with the other hand, restrain her with one leg artfully cast over her body with your knee placed precisely where she can rub her most erogenous zone against it to best effect.

Once the earthquake has subsided and Pussy has been rekindled with sweet kisses and licks, flip her over and initiate a private preview of the public discipline alluded to earlier.  Lightly spank the underside of her delicious buttocks, the “sweet spot”.  You may well be encouraged to continue, and are thus well on your way to a satisfying BDSM relationship, without questions that may trigger automatic denial, without setting out scary toys that provoke anxiety and doubt about your intentions, without making it all seem like a set-up.

When approached in this way, any inclination that a shy partner may have towards sexual exploration will be encouraged. By taking the lead in a manner that offers her interesting alternatives yet always gives her control over her situation, you will arouse her curiosity as to what else you have to offer and reassure her that you are someone to play with, not someone to be afraid of.

See you at the next party ?

The facts are, everyone is different, and everyone has their own preferences. I personally greatly enjoy topping my girlfriend, and also greatly enjoy submitting to her. Some people _are_ tops in every play situation, just as some are bottoms in every play situation–but I know people who top men but bottom to women, people who sometimes switch roles multiple times within one date, and every other spectrum of possibility!

People who top are called “tops,” people who bottom are called “bottoms,” and people who switch back and forth between topping and bottoming are called “switches.” A switch can be a top in one scene and a bottom in another. Some people switch back and forth often; others switch only between scenes, but retain one role throughout any individual scene; others switch only very seldom with people that they trust very deeply; and still others never switch at all.

If you do switch, and you’re not sure which role you want, you can play with that question in itself. Whole scenes can revolve around the “who’s on top?” question. Maybe you can have a wrestling match, and the person who gets pinned first will wind up being tied up. Maybe you can set a timer, and when the timer dings, it’s time to switch positions! There are as many possibilities as your imagination can dream of!

Then again, maybe only one side of the balance holds any appeal for you, and in that case, you’ll want to play with folks who have little desire for _your_ side… it takes all kinds, and all kinds are out there.

It is also the case that there is no necessary relation between whether someone is dominant or submissive in everyday life and whether they are a top or a bottom. Some of the most domineering executives secretly love being abased and abused… it’s a chance for them to lose control, to give up responsibility. And some of the most quiet, meek, shy-looking people you’ve ever seen turn into demonic geniuses of pain and pleasure when given someone to play with.

It’s not at all unheard of for someone who’s done only one thing (for example, bottoming) to one day start feeling the urge to top, or vice versa. People change, preferences change, it’s nothing unusual. This, though, leads into the next question….
