The chapters in this collection articulate some exceptionally important and profound ideas. The way the authors embrace their subjects as ‘kinked’ often leads to profound moments of recognition and realization, particularly when they focus on the most troubling sexually explicit material ... The wide scope of the volume overall is to be applauded, and demonstrates that kink studies must be open and inclusive, not merely restricted to tiresome analysis of heteronormative-tinged BDSM.
