Q&A Forum - January 2013 (Best of Elise, 'Wanda' edition)

Screen 1 of 28

Q. Dear Ms Sutton: Congratulations on your new book, "Searching for Wanda". I’ve read all three of your books and I’m a subscriber to Predominant. I think “Searching for Wanda” is an exquisite piece of non-fiction but if you don’t mind me asking, I would love to know your motivation for writing this book.

The reason I ask is because when I was about half way through reading “Wanda”, it became obvious that this book had more of a cautionary tone than your other two books. Am I safe to assume that “Wanda” is your attempt at a ‘market correction’ when it comes to female domination?

A. The answer to your question is contained on the back cover of my book. It says, “In her third book, Elise Sutton strays away from the more common lifestyles of FemDom女性支配 — female domination practitioners who pursue relationships based on the principals of loving female authority, and instead she takes an honest look at men who claim to be seeking ‘unloving female authority’ at the hands of a sadistic woman.”

My first book looked at the most common lifestyles under the big FemDom女性支配 — female domination umbrella, including a chapter devoted to mild forms of female sadism and male masochism, which I entitled “Leather Sex”. My first book was all about exploring the male desire for loving female authority and how the female domination lifestyle can be healthy and the ultimate win/win relationship as long as people stay rooted and grounded in reality.
