Yet somehow I managed to get past the totems of taboo and indulge long pent-up desire. Getting there is half the fun, the saying goes, but how much the better for me and others if I had been able to count on the type of reliable insight offered in the following pages by Joseph W. Bean.

One of the things I know now i didn't know then, is that entering the realm of leathersex is really about coming into one of the most vibrant communities of men and women around. It took years before I could trust the integrity of my instincts or be honest about the need locked in my fantasies. Those twin demons of guilt and shame had conspired well to keep me from knowing others who had explored radical sexuality and had lessons to teach.
