Say Please
Sinclair Sexsmith presents a cornucopia of lesbian kink — tantalizing tales rich in variety and saucy details of girls put in their place — and held there firmly. A girly-girl reaps a sweet punishment for refusing to mess up her oh-so-pink lipstick and a well-equipped top takes charge. Whether readers dream of surrendering to a lover or of taking control, Say Please offers plenty of erotic inspiration and gives readers exactly what they want! In "The Cruelest Kind," Kiki Delovely's naughty narrator gets her just desserts from her butch girlfriend with some fierce back alley bondage while D.L. King's domme makes her submissive strip before un unseen audience, binds her to a bench, and gives her a good strapping in "A Public Spectacle." Anna Watson' bored housewife gets more than she bargains for in "The Keys" when she follows a lesbian animal trainer out to a queer bar and anything goes in Xan West's sexy "Strong" when a transgender butch and genderqueer sub engage in some very tough love.

Woman on woman sex is alluring. The images of women bound, struggling, suckling, licking and perhaps some sexy fisting pop into mind. Surprisingly, not much of these types of sexy scenarios occurred. My knowledge of lesbian scenes is perhaps tainted by the patriarchal society’s popular sexualizing of women for their pleasure. I have no lesbian friends who share with me their fantasies or even what they like to do with their lovers. I do have my own personal bisexual female fantasies. It seems my desires for being with a woman are tainted by societal influences because they do not match what is in this book.
This anthology is very well written. The stories are all tightly woven and fast paced. The way lesbians relate in an erotic BDSM scene is surprisingly close to m/m erotic stories, even down to calling the Top – Daddy and the bottom – boy. There were many hot scenes of strap-on sex which was a delight. These stories weren’t gentle sweet sixty-nine and cooing. Instead, the reader is treated to some rough sex with whimpering, begging and juices a dripping. Where is the signup sheet?
Every type of lesbian is showcased this anthology. The varied types, sexual interludes and writing styles will appeal to all kinds of readers. Two authors that specifically stood out due to previously exposure to these authors are Dilo Keith and Elizabeth Thorne. Both ladies wrote some tasty smexy stories. They leave the readers wanting more. Ms. Thorne is an author I’m keeping my eye on. Her particular writing style and the sensuality she infuses into the story pulls me in. Her story, “unworthy as I am” is in the pimp spot, last story in the book. The hot D/s scene in it is tastefully done and generates submissive yearnings. This collection of lesbian BDSM erotica is a great read recommended for f/f lovers who enjoy a bite to their erotica.

Butch top...Femme bottom...the end. Yawn. (with the exception of a couple of stories that didn't follow this pattern...)

Butch Doms. Femme Doms. Leather Daddies with Harley's. Genderfluid girl/bois submitting to their Transgender Dom. Whips. Canes. Chains. Collars with locks. Private scenes. Public scenes. Strap-on femmes. Butch bottoms.
These multiple spicy, sexy, sometimes cringe-y tales had me on the "edge" all the way through to the end. There isn't much to say other than if you love kink, D/s, BDSM, explicit, consensual sex, then pick up a copy of Say Please.
*My favourite tale was 'First Ride' ;)*

This book makes sex between women seem boring. I consider it an insult.
Sure, some stories are great, but I'd rather clean my house than read this collection again.

I’ll be the first to admit that of all the myriad sub-genres of erotica, lesbian BDSM has long been the favorite on my list, first as a reader, and now as a writer. When I saw the call for the blog tour, I knew that I had to be on it, as I’d missed the call for submissions. Given the choice between an ebook and a print version, I gleefully chose the paper version; I don’t have an ereader, but besides that, there’s just something about a hard copy of dirty stories, like the Nancy Friday books I read to tatters ages ago, that makes me feel so deliciously naughty.
I dipped into Say Please: Lesbian BDSM Erotica almost as soon as I ripped open the paper shipping envelope, taking the burgundy-carpeted stairs to my third-floor walk up two at a time. I only had a bit of time before work, but I devoured the first few stories right away; I like to tease myself sometimes by deliberately getting turned on right before I have an engagement elsewhere. The things a single girl has to do! I finished the book on a bus trip, relishing the public debauchery of it, like eating a whole cake in front of starving orphans. If I were a queen, I’d be beheaded for this.
As much as I honor print books, I just had to mark the stories that I particularly relished; they number nine in total. I know it’s a thing, a popular thing apparently, but I just can’t get into anything where they use the word “Daddy” -- it’s just a huge personal turn-off. On the other hand, “Sir,” packing, spanking, and cruel-yet-loving D/s really gets me going.
I was surprised to see that the majority of stories were in first person. One notable exception, which was another favorite of mine, was The Keys, by Anna Watson. While so many of the other stories had levels of love and commitment, even romance in the midst of pain, this one was straight-up smut. The writing conveyed a feeling of seediness which enhanced the plot, and I thought it was a bit of genius to have a dolphin trainer playing with water sports. The Keys was a story which, in an alternate kinky universe, you could take in an English class and break down to see all how all its glittering parts reflect the larger picture.
One excerpt that will stay in my head (and other, lower regions) for a very long time is this amazing passage from Strong, by Xan West:
I’m not ashamed to admit that this is something I’m going to have to incorporate into my sex life and I’m slightly annoyed I never thought of it before myself! Erotica is of course all about getting into the mind, and this illustrates my point beautifully. The elegance with which the author has the genderqueer submissive submit first as a girl, then seamlessly as a boy was a joy to read. I’m looking forward to reading more by Xan.
In Gigi Frost’s Housewife, 1950’s gender roles are subverted and turned into pleasure for two role-playing lovers. There is love here, and concern for each other; and cruelty is kindness when it’s so lusciously consensual.
I’ve had those fantasies, too – just from the other side! The writing was juicy, hot, and was vivid in my head. The only complaint I had with this one was that it’s too short, and I wanted to get to know the characters better.
To me, BDSM is most appealing when it’s so beautifully integrated with love and romance that there is no discernible place where one stops and the other begins. So it is with editor Sinclair Sexsmith’s Not Without Permission. The love and respect each has for the other is beautiful to see on the page, and while the sex is very, very hot, I think that’s the part that really does it for me. Coming on command is such a sexy thing, but it’s the most meaningful and powerful when emotion is involved. The writing was vivid, easily painted in my mind’s eye, and I really cared about the characters. Another one that I wished was longer!
Say Please: Lesbian BDSM Erotica is a great look into contemporary erotica. The variety of themes and plots was interesting enough to not be repetitive, yet they flowed together beautifully. This is definitely a book you’ll want to keep on your nightstand to keep coming back to, again and again… and you don’t even need my permission. Sinclair Sexsmith

One excerpt that will stay in my head (and other, lower regions) for a very long time is this amazing passage from Strong, by Xan West:
It’s a rule of mine. When she’s my girl, she is required to keep her thighs apart. They never touch in my presence. It makes her constantly aware of her body, the position she’s in. She is always conscious of her cunt. Exposed just by her own awareness. With this one simple rule, I claim ownership of her body, her cunt, her focus. From across the room I am inside her, spreading her thighs, exposing her cunt, deep inside her head.

Last night, lying with my head on her shoulder, she told me about her childhood fantasies, rescuing princesses and then ravishing them.
“The princess really wants you to fuck her, but you sort of have to make her,” she said.
I love being her princess.
I’ve had those fantasies, too – just from the other side! The writing was juicy, hot, and was vivid in my head. The only complaint I had with this one was that it’s too short, and I wanted to get to know the characters better.

I am really picky about erotica, and while I really loved a handful of these pieces, the rest just weren't my style as far as the writing itself went. It was also very butch/femme and I think I would have enjoyed a bit more variation there, but I was really happy that there was still a good deal of gender stuff even if it wasn't quite what I was looking for. Overall I think the writing style wasn't to my taste, but it was still an enjoyable read.

BDSM
A woman ties another to a bed. Then lightly hits her with a tie, based on the reactions (first time she's hit her), she proceeds to hit her with a baseball cap.

Rachel Kramer Bussel: A Slap in the Face
Public Display of Kink; Public; Pain/Impact Play
I have a tendency to over or underrate short stories, especially if they are 'kink' or just, for that matter, erotic. I was on the edge of giving this a higher rating, then bumped it down. So I might have either over or underrated this one here. As in, I might have underrated it by knocking it down just because I know I have this tendency, even so, I still might have overrated the story.
An apparently well-endowed woman stands in a bar wearing, if I understand correctly, upper clothing that is see through. I think it is something like a mesh top until of a see-through bra, or a sheer jacket over a mesh top over a see-through bra or . . .okay, just imagine a woman who has nice sized breasts wearing 'barely there clothing'. It is stressed that this neither a kink bar nor a lesbian bar. Another person walks up to the basically naked woman and slaps her in the face. Then does it again. Then drags her outside and slaps her a few more times, gets her to remove her top and . . well, now I'm just going too far in describing things. I was going to go for a certain distance and then say something like 'no, this isn't a cat fight' but went to far, I did.
The two are actually a lesbian couple and, apparently, the one getting slapped 1) asked for it - no literally, I don't mean she did something wrong and so 'she asked for it', but in using words that correspond to something along the lines of 'please slap me in public'; 2) loves impact play - gets aroused by it; 2) the one doing the slapping also loves impact play, though from the other side - as in, loves giving out the slaps and stuff.
I'm fairly certain this little itty bitty snippet would normally get a much lower rating than the one I gave, but apparently hit me just right so . . ..
Oh, almost forgot something - one thing I found confusing: near the end there is the line that goes something along the lines of 'untied her hands' but . . . her hands were never tied. Unless I missed it. There was a comment about forcing her hands above her head, then something about allowing her hands down for one reason or another, but I don't recall 'tied her hands'.

Everything about this story annoys or disgusts me - from the cheating wife to the disdain for the area vacationing in, to the peeing others, to that other taking the cheating woman's pee-soaked panties; everything. Disgusting, but competently written - the parts I didn't skim over at least (there's only so much of name calling and being forced to pee in clothing on others that I can read (as in very little) before I have to revert to reading while averting my eyes).

As a very, very submissive bi girl with a F/F partner who is also my Domme, i found this book delightful. There certainly were a variety of stories included, but all were sapphic and most were quite interesting as well as erotic. My Mistress directs me to read books such as this out loud to her and any shortcomings on my part are severely punished. She never runs out of novel ideas to remind me that She is in charge. As mentioned in my status update, because my voice faltered, i was locked in a half full stinky wheeled trash bin set in a filthy horse stall in our barn for two whole days! Needless to say, i performed the remained of my reading assignment perfectly after that experience. XOXOXOs to the editor of this story collection, Sinclair Sexsmith, for curating the tales selected for inclusion. An easy read that will cause your hands to wander and your fingers to roam:)
July 8, 2012
There are so many things to love about Sinclair Sexsmith’s new anthology, “Say Please: Lesbian BDSM Erotica,” that it’s hard to catalogue them all.
But you know what I love best about this book?
I love that it exists.
I mean, if you want to, you can fill your shelves with anthologies of BDSM erotica featuring heterosexual couples. There’s no shortage of gay male BDSM porn either!
But it’s just not easy to find BDSM erotica featuring relationships between women. I mean, how long has it been since the publication of Macho Sluts?
Fourteen years. I checked.
I mean, the fact is, when I was looking for a book to give my sweetheart, I ended up giving her an anthology of BDSM stories featuring mostly heterosexual couples — BECAUSE THIS BOOK DIDN’T EXIST.
Now, there are worse problems, right? I mean, for one thing, I did not need a book to tell me that there were other kinky queers like me out there. But every book is like a message in a bottle, and we cannot know upon which shores its message will wash up. Somewhere out there is a baby perv, who’s gonna find this book, and think, OMG THERE REALLY ARE PEOPLE LIKE ME AND SOMEONE THINKS WE ARE IMPORTANT ENOUGH TO PUT IN A BOOK! There are at least fifteen of them, because 23 of them wrote about it and then one of them put all the stuff between the covers of a book!
And then they’ll sit there for a minute, and it’ll blow their minds when they realize, wait: there must be more than 23 of us plus me, because nobody would publish a book if only the people in it and some random nobody like me were interested. There must be, like…an audience.
Sure, I know: there’s the internet now. But message boards and social networks aren’t a substitute for seeing your experience represented onscreen, or between the covers of a book. Shine Louise Houston, director of some truly awesome queer porn, gets it right when she says:
“There is power in creating images, and for… a woman of color and a queer to take that power… I don’t find it exploitative; I think it’s necessary.”
So if you get this book, what’s gonna happen to you in the Adventureland of your mind, hm?
You’re gonna get slapped in the face:
You’re gonna chain somebody to a motorcycle:
You’re gonna be late with dinner…again:
You’re gonna have sex with a hot dolphin trainer (oh, you just think I’m kidding, don’t you?)
And people, there is more where that came from. A lot more!

You’re gonna get slapped in the face:
Jade strolled into the bar, walked straight up to Amber, who was leaning against it wearing a slinky leopard-print slip, ripped fishnet stockings, a see-through black top along with a sheer black bra, and dangerously tall black heels, her red hair gleaming even in the low lights, and slapped her across the face. “A Slap in the Face,” Rachel Kramer Bussel
You’re gonna chain somebody to a motorcycle:
Reaching into my saddlebags, I pulled out the wrist cuffs and chains. The rattle of the chains made her gasp with anticipation. ”First Ride,” Wendy Kali
You’re gonna be late with dinner…again:
“This isn’t the first time.”
“The first time what?”
“This isn’t the first time you’ve been late with dinner. In fact, it’s more like the fourth or fifth.”
Gigi Frost, “Housewife”
You’re gonna have sex with a hot dolphin trainer (oh, you just think I’m kidding, don’t you?)
“Pick that back up and turn around.” The trainer had a high, smooth, authoritative voice. Her hands on Maggie’s shoulders were firm, commanding. Maggie reached down slowly and slid the skirt back up over her calves, her thighs. She was sweating; the bathroom wasn’t air-conditioned. ”The Keys,” Anna Watson
And people, there is more where that came from. A lot more!

Lesbian erotica has inspired me since I was just starting out in kink. Words make my pussy wet. I loved being able to envision myself in either side of the fantasy. Reading stories about ladies making love and being kinky with each other have such a fluidity for me.
When I heard that Sinclair Sexsmith had compiled a book of BDSM Lesbian erotica, I was very excited to see what naughty treasures were inside. The book, Say Please is a collection of twenty three stories from all corners of the kinky BDSM world.
Each chapter is a different story and a new chance to put yourself inside the fantasy world that the authors create. Each time I turned the page, my pussy got more and more soaked.
The stories run the gambit between gender play, sexual sensuality and hardcore BDSM situations. Each is hotter then the next.
I think that my favorite story in the collection is, “A Slap in the Face,” by Rachel Kramer Brussel.
A slap across the face is a very powerful statement, usually of anger or of being displeased…but it can also be an expression of complete Dominance.
There is a thin line between play and abuse that could possibly be crossed with a slap across the mouth.
I crave it sometimes though.
I had one ex Domme in particular who was very much into face slapping. It was the ultimate Domination to her. “Anyone can spank asses or rough up a pair of tits,” She’d say, “but a slap across the face that is presented in both an acceptable and sensual way is nearly an art form.”
“A Slap in the Face,” takes place in a grungy dive bar in Brooklyn not in a place where kink is openly present and accepted. I think that’s what makes it even hotter. One lover approaches the other and without even saying hello, there is a smack clear across the mouth. I can nearly imagine the other bar patrons raising their eyebrows and turning their necks to see if they could figure out what happened between the two women.
When the Top decides that there has been enough exhibitionism, the two go outside for some more intense playing down a dark alley.
It’s an amazing story of true submission and Dominance between the two

Extremely... patchy. Editing quality poor in places (some stories had exceedingly dull prose; a really basic continuity error about whether underwear was on or not, in a story by an award-winning author). A fair range of gender expressions and roles, although very very few femme tops and only ONE fem with a strap on (and zero strap-on-wearers who aren't the dominant partner). Some of the stories had really fascinating engagements with gender, but needed work to work as porn - the one that most interested me, one with a mid-scene gender-role switch, unfortunately tried to pack in SO MANY acts of sadism / masochism in one short story that it was like reading a sports report.
Others, however, were extremely Relevant To My Interests in ways I shan't detail here.

Okay so this book started really well, enjoyable stories but somehow I feel like it's made to pander male attention. The BDSM scenes all felt like something between a male and female rather than two females. The use of "sir" "master" "daddy" was too rampant, and it kinda irked me because most dommes I know go by "mistress" "ma'am" "mommy". Yes some women prefer to be addressed the masculine way but why did every single story use it? It's like defying the purpose of women reading this. I loved the stories, I just don't like the heterosexual vibes I'm getting from what is supposed to be lesbian erotica.

After re-reading a few scenes, I could only describe them as the most intense and ultra-realistic BDSM scenes I've read thus far. There were a few that weren't my type of jam, but still gave me a few ideas on my next fantasies when I can't go to sleep.
My personal fave were the "Daddy" scenes
