WARNING!
This book contains tempting descriptions, illicit photography, intriguing character studies, and genuinely useful tips–in case “vanilla folk” find themselves in any unusual roleplaying or kink-related scenarios. Self-described pervert Gates articulates these little-known fetishes with such skill that you may begin to reconsider your own proclivities…
About the Book.
Katharine Gates’ bestselling Deviant Desires: A Tour of the Erotic Edge—the classic exploration of niche kinks, sexual misfits, and DIY fetish—is now back, revised and updated!
Author Katharine Gates, curator of the year-long exhibition KINK at Museum of Sex, has added a new introduction, plus chapters on Cannibal Play (“Eat Me!”), Suburbs of the Foot Fetish, and more. The expanded book also includes a handy “kinkmap”–your guide to the erotic imagination (versions of this map have been used in university-level psychology textbooks).
Often imitated but never equaled, this book is required reading for those who understand rule #34 of the Internet: if it’s out there, someone is getting off on it.
