DaddySir's Library Page

 

 

Well this page is basically a listing of some people and readings to help speed you along the leather highway to ecstasy.

PEOPLE: One of the best ways to make contact with people on the web is, if you can, view their home page and see if what they present appeals to you. Most homepages have an E-mail opportunity for feedback and most guys are quite responsive. There is a multitude of ways to do this. Use the links sites provide such as Club 80, Men on the Net, or Leathernavigator, or use search engines such as google, dogpile or yahoo to search out topics that appeal to you. (Try out the leather section, very extensive!) Lastley and probably easiest is to follow the "rings", Leather ring and the Gay S&M Ring. Unfortunately many of these sites have recently ceased to function for various reasons or have changed location. A search should find them for you. There are many different rings linking sites of similar interest. You can start exploring at WEBRING.

 

Just remember that just because you are honest in your descriptions of yourself and your availability not everybody else is and even if they are, they may be half a world away. Don't be daunted, just a reasonable dose of caution is recommended.

READINGS: This is probably where its really at if you want a real understanding of where you're coming from and possibly going to. Again use the links and search engines above to find on-line info but more in-depth understanding may be had from digesting writings and studies some of which, the more well recognised and accessable, are listed below.

Also use the media page to access some on-line journalism on leather, gay, lesbian, S/M and other topics.

(Yes these references have an Australian/US bent, live with it!)

My favourite sources are The Bookshop, Darlinghurst, (Sydney) and A Different Light Bookshop (ADL) on Castro St San-Francisco. These three outlets have postal order services.

(I realise that references below are scant, mail me and I'll give you as much info as I can)
