..from 2003 a list of mainstream (available through Amazon) BDSM videos and dvds
~for example
link w/links to more explicit vendors
~It cheers me to see in the movies that BDSM is for those involved more often than not a liberating experience. There's no such thing as BDSM date-rape.
You can't make and distribute a movie (through Amazon or any retailer) about the sadistic or masochistic joys of rape without inviting criminal prosecution. I imagine the reality of most BDSM experiences are not anything like what's portrayed in these films.
Then again "You've Got Mail" is not typical of how people hook-up via the internet, neither is "Pretty Woman" a documentary about prostitution.
These movies might be useful as 'marital aids' not for individuals wondering what to expect from the BDSM scene?
