Read some of the real non fiction books out there like The Loving Dominat, Different Loving, or The Wild Side of Sex.

I remember something about it from 10 years ago when I started.... castle relm (sp) or white shaddows or something like that....  I had it on my old PC but the new one is only a year old.....

Status: offline 		CastleRealm is in disrepute, to say the least.  The site no longer functions, and a lawsuit stated that the slave Jade never existed.  Much of CastleRealm has been preserved in various archives, but I will not provide links because I don't trust the site and the authors.  You are best served by reading stuff by people who don't make shit up.

Status: offline 		A book about the lifestyle when your a newbie is a far better investment than a choker collar
Personally I would rather buy a book and learn, understand some of the concepts before hand instead  rushing into in a frenzy  thinking it is all fun and games as there is a possibility of getting hurt physically and emotionally, if I don't know what to expect and what can go wrong ...... and later on earn a  collar

Status: offline 		Collarme has some great resources and you can keep reading the postings for occasional links to other articles.

Try searching with more specific keywords on search engines because that always helps narrow things down for you.

Check bdsm directories for other good sites.

Watch bdsm movies like Exit to Eden and Mercy because they can be entertaining and educational.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

I like his column here, "The Myth of the Old Guard"
http://www.leatherviews.com/kinkyinfo/9930.htm because it echoes my views pretty much. I think he and I are of similar ages. (not implying any other similarities) I think many of those who go on about "Old Guard Protocols" and whatnot should go back to worshipping Klingons at the Trekker conventions.

Status: offline 		one peice of advice I am suprised I have not seen: DO NOT LEARN FROM PORN that stuff is fictionalized over dramatized wank fodder, they are paid to take insane abuse.

I agree that you are on one of the best sites to learn from, if you are having problems asking questions, there are hundreds of pages of questions already posed in the "comunity discussions" section, it will keep you busy for months.

Dayum.  I flit back into the boards and find myself agreeing strongly with you twice!

Mistress Steel has, for example, put forward lies about the Old Guard use of collars.  Hippiekinkster did all newbies a big favor by giving a link to that myth article.  There is sooooooo much BS online, and in BDSM in general.  That's part of why people are suggesting these forums.  If someone says something, ah, lame, other people are willing to set the record straight.  Articles by "experts" with credentials you can't check are not worth too much.
