Beyond Bettie Page : Sexploitation, Fetish and Femdom Kink!

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"A must-have for all retro-kink fans ... it all began here with EXOTIQUE, published from 1951 to 1957 ... it's fascinating; the femdom fetish style and vamp fashion wear and exotic artwork."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"This is also important. It features the collected self-published work of John Willie, who was an amazing and unique artist, an influence on Irving Klaw, Bettie Page and Eric Stanton and many others."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"I recommend this book of John Willie's BIZARRE work (really his personal art project). John Willie was like the Leonardo Da Vinci of bondage art -- best known for "Sweet Gwendoline.""

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Try to get the 2nd Edition of this (2001, 368 pgs). The Sweet Gwendoline artwork collected into a single, beautiful book. John Willie's illustration work is amazing. This is absolutely worth owning."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"For many this will be the introduction to Bettie Page and her involvement with fetish pioneer, Irving Klaw. Bettie Page cheerfully played a submissive or a domina (dominatrix) as a fetish model."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Speaking of her work with Irving Klaw ... Her Klaw 8mm loops are included here. (It's not complete however.)"

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"For Bettie Page fans this is a must-have book. It's awesome. It's absolutely PACKED with lovely pics and well written -- and put together with Bettie Page's involvement."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"This is a reprint, mostly of Eric Stanton's post-1980s work, although it does include some of Stanton's early Irving Klaw work (from the 1950s) & his serial "Deborah," originally produced for Exotique"

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"This huge coffee table book is one of the greatest fetish art books EVER. It has personal pics of the artist and all kinds of cool stuff in it. Tons of art, covering Eric Stanton's unique life."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Joe Shuster did a lot of fetish artwork. Interesting that both Joe Shuster, co-creator of Superman/Clark Kent, and Steve Ditko, co-creator of Spiderman/Peter Parker, both had double lives."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Semi-autobiographical femdom related pieces by the fearless writer, Stephen Elliott. He mentions buying the Eric Stanton coffee table book in it -- a reference that made me smile. This isn't erotica ."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Elliott's most recent also ventures into femdom territory. This is less of a "true crime" book and another rare investigation into male vulnerability as a (part-time) male submissive."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"My all-time favorite BDSM erotica, THE IMAGE by Jean de Berg. (I highly recommend it.) Radley Metzger's adaptation of the novel, originally called "The Punishment of Anne.""

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"I see Dita Von Teese as an important link to fetish history, not only  burlesque."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"The title says it all. A compilation of her work with German publisher Marquis."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"More of Dita's fetish work and retro glamour. Very nice."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"This is a very cool book by Eric Kroll. Worth owning. His best book, in my opinion."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Get the 260 page version, not the mini book (which is still nice). Much like FETISH GIRLS, but even better in my opinion. Early Richard Kern stuff is bad*ss."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Richard Kern directly influenced the Suicide Girls phenomenon. Anything that re-examines and re-defines or challenges traditionally held/accepted views of beauty/femininity/masculinity is valuable."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"SuicideGirls: Beauty Redefined. A quality book worth owning if you can appreciate the re-definition of beauty which pulls from the fetish/primitive aesthetic."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"I love this book. And that includes the cover. ;)"

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"One of the very few substantial books on the subculture relating to "femdom" and its related fetishes -- not just cheesy socio-porn. It's really interesting and generally fun to read"

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"Fun book. Well written, if not just a little short. It's actually a collection of a bunch of related "scenes" or scenarios. Like, "Shoe Salesman" and "New Job" -- roleplay."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"The original and still the most compelling expression of what I like to call fetish-noir (other will call it femdom). A cautionary tale, to be sure."

Der Verfasser der Liste meint:
	"I humbly submit my own "fetish-noir" or femdom themed "girls on the lam" novel. It's not "erotica" -- it's a pulp neo-sexploitation novel and a black comedy of sorts, set in NYC’s East Village."
