Important note: Somebody on Amazon left “Natural Slave” a negative review, claiming (erroneously) that it had technical problems. If you are so inclined, and if you enjoyed “Natural Slave” or any of Bob’s other books, please consider leaving a positive review! He sure would appreciate it!

New eBook available from Bob Wingate: Natural Slave

“Natural Slave” — out today from Bound & Gagged magazine and New York Bondage Club founder Bob Wingate — consists of ten powerful true-life accounts of sexual slavery, written by real slaves and real Masters. All of these stories originally appeared in the pages of Bound & Gagged

Becoming a sexual slave to a dominant Master is one of the strongest currents of desire of men into bondage. So if you need to submit, or be submitted to, you will find a lot to satisfy your fantasies in “Natural Slave,” especially since fantasies are all most of us have to sustain us during these difficult, self-isolating times!

This is the second recent eBook available from Bob Wingate.

Issue 2 of Bound & Gagged magazine

It’s impossible to describe the amount of excitement receiving a new copy of Bound & Gagged magazine in the mail in its discreet brown envelope caused me, every other month, back in the day. In addition to providing endless hours of jackoff material, this magazine literally changed my life. Learning about the existence of a bondage club with weekly meetings in NYC was a huge incentive for me to move here! And I met many men through the bondage club and in the Bound & Gagged personal ads — several of whom I am still friends with to this day.

To my great delight, Bob Wingate, the editor and founder of Bound & Gagged and also the founder of the New York Bondage Club, recently revived his personal blog — located here — and he’s also started publishing eBooks — available here — with some of his magazine’s greatest hits.

“Spreadeagle Tales includes 18 tales from the newsletter I put out for the New York Bondage Club, which I founded in 1984, plus eight more great stories from the magazine — readers’ favorites and my own. It also includes an introduction by me about how the club and the magazine came into being,” Bob said in an email announcement. “A second eBook, ‘Natural Slave,’ will be coming out in the next month.”

You can get on Bob’s mailing list by writing him at bob@boundandgagged.com with the words “Put me on your mailing list” on the subject line. You can also write Bob at that address with any questions.

This is a really good book

I recently finished “My Leather Life: Early Years” by Peter Fiske, narrated by Thomas V. Peterson, and I can’t recommend this book enough!

It’s available for purchase on Amazon.

Peter Fiske book review

 

Peter is one of our most passionate and loving of leather elders, who is well known in gay s/m circles as an expert in flogging and whipping. For anyone interested in learning more about this topic — as well as anyone who wants to understand more in general about who we are as kinky folk and where we came from — this book is highly recommended!

Peter shares personal stories of growing up in New York City and discovering a sexual interest in bondage and spanking at a young age. He also tells of serving in the military in the segregated South and finding leather sex at a dirty movie theater in Times Square. All of this takes place pre-Stonewall! Speaking of Stonewall, Peter was also a patron of this famous bar and tells of being present at three different raids before the famous rioting took place in late June 1969.

Peter was also active in the leather scene in San Francisco, meeting many of the “old guard” leather men of the day and joining a back patch club and attending leather runs. Peter later became active in brotherhood organizations, including The 15 Association, the Chicago Hellfire Club and Delta.

“‘My Leather Life’ reads like porn, but it is my life,” Peter shared in a recent posting on Facebook.

“All of our stories matter. Mine is no different than any of my readers,” Peter continued. “I have been lucky to live at the center and to find love. If you take one thing from my book, it is that it’s in your power to live authentically and to find your love and your friends. Drag queens told me that in the 60s. Be real. You can be real too. All it takes is courage and a glad heart.”

The group picture shown in this blog posting is in the book and is also from Peter’s Facebook page. The caption states that it is from the Folsom Fair in San Francisco in September 1991 and shows, from left, Shadow Morton, Coulter “Colt’ Thomas (who was the fifth International Mr. Leather and Peter’s lover), Sky Renfro, Peter himself, and John.

I absolutely loved reading this book. I’m inspired not only by Peter’s passion for leading an authentic life but also of his stories of standing up for those being discriminated against, including men of color, drag queens and those who are transgender.

But for me the most moving passages were those in which the author describes the way he plays. When Peter flogs or whips a bottom in a leather scene, he does it as an act of love.

We should all be more like Peter.

Good book: ‘Discovery’

This book, by Derrick Andrew Richter with a cover photograph by Conor Sathre, is available as a paperback or as an eBook:

Derrick Andrew Richter with a cover photograph by Conor Sathre

Barron and Cody, partners of two years, begin to explore an alternative lifestyle. Cody readily jumps at the chance to try new things. While Barron, the more dominant partner, is initially more shy about exploring his fantasies. Together they learn the joys of new experiences. Cody quickly embraces the role of pup. But it takes a stronger hand, to help push Barron into acting on his deeply hidden desires. This story is a sexually charged, exploring roleplay, fetishes and consensual humiliation.
