~FR~ Below is a small sample of citations I got with a 60-second search of JSTOR.  I don't know you thesis so I don't know which of these would help you.  However, you should be able to look up the journals and/or authors listed.  Other issues of those journals might have the sort of information you need.  I'd also check the DSM-IV, Psychology Today, or other magazines that deal with sexuality, psychology, or gender studies. The Social Constituents of SadomasochismMartin S.

The sources I already had were "The Loving Dominant" and "Erotic Slavehood" both of which should prove to be very useful. I did find a couple books at my schools library on sadism and masochism, and I'm finding information online as well. Really, thank you all so much! I'll let you know how it goes. :)
