Ugh, where to begin?
As a feminist and a submissive this book reeks of patriarchy and misogyny. Old school thinking, narrow lanes of thought and an inordinate amount of time spent on why we as women, (apparently men as submissives aren't a concept even worth covering), should be happy to walk away from the rights we've gained and go back to the good old days of manipulating men to make it to the top. Which in the author's opinion is clearly the real feminists only valid choice. No really useful info on submissive life/lifestyle except the usual, lose who you are to be who he wants you to be and aren't you lucky to be taken care of?! This is not a book for earnest and thoughtful people interested in the D/s lifestyle.

How to book"
The book is a bit dry and repetitious, but it is easy to follow seems to have a good understanding of the submissive and Dom types down.
The narration was a bit computer generated sounding. However she does very well with the excerpt for another book at the end it made me wish to check out the story. Well if I could afford it that is. More power to her."

Very helpful
Helpful and informative. I'm a Dom but it was equally insightful. Good format and terminology. The writing is problematic in many places - a capable editor and proof reader would help.

While I don't agree with all of it, I did find this a very thought provoking read. I think anyone looking into becoming a Submissive should check it out.

This is an interesting book containing a wealth of information for those wishing to explore the D/s relationship from either side.

Great introduction to the Dom/Sub life.
This is a Non-Fiction title.
Read by Anneliese Rennie
Length: 1 hr and 49 mins
Lots of good information packed into this short listen on the Dominant and Submissive lifestyle, with emphasis on the Sub.
♥ Story ♥
Submissive Training introduces you to all the categories of the Dominant and Submissive relationship, and yes, there is more than one way to play. Most people tend to equate the Dom/Sub life to one way of doing things, but there is more than just safe words, hand cuffs, and spankings. I know it expanded my comprehension, and I knew a lot more than the average joe from all my years of reading romance and erotica. There are more than likely way more variations than are covered in this audiobook, but it will get you off on the right foot if this is something you are honestly wanting to learn about.
I would say that Submissive Training is aimed more at women than men, but that it could be used by any gender that is wanting to be on the Submission side of a Dom/Sub couple.

Honestly, probably one of the worst informational books I've yet about kink to-date.
I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this book. It seems based on bedroom-only dynamics, which is fine, but the book doesn't seem to understand if it's a sex manual, a relationship guideline, a self help book, or a BDSM 101 text.
One of my biggest complaints isn't just the assume cis-hetero dynamic, but the blatant misogyny, transphobia, and gender essentialism in the writing.
> For some, being totally submissive in all areas of their lives becomes totally natural and it is a simple return to the 1950s where women knew their place. [Page 14]
> However, historically at least, women have been more naturally caregivers. [Page 15]
> Of course, most sexual pleasure emanates cerebrally for women. [Page 57]
There are a small handful of decent nuggets contained in the ~140 book, but not nearly enough to outweigh the contradicting statements (the use of "true submissives" and "great submissives" only to state at the end "there is no real true submissive" [Page 135] and "If a dom is highly experienced, he will know just how much is enough" and "you still have to learn what each other likes and you might be completely different to any other relationship" [63]) and just blatantly incorrect "information" ("Training nowadays is not as bad a it used to be. In the old days, submissives were beaten to get the behavior out of them" [page 6]).
As a sex manual, you're better off with Come as You Are by Emily Nagoski, as a kinky dynamic guide you're better off with How to be a Healthy and Happy Submissive by Kate Kinsey

clear and to the point
I was surprised to learn that BDSM extents outside the bedroom. It is a great method to use for managing responsibilities in a partnership. It provides a different method of deep communication. It helps remove hang ups, fears that otherwise would prevent personal growth. It provides guidelines and clears who’s going to be in control and what it means to be in control. This book helped me realize what type of role I can see myself wanting to be in and what my partner is seeking in a relationship. It’s quite illuminating.

Great outline for new subs
This is a well written guide to what it means to be a submissive and also includes what a submissive isn't. The book gives a great insight into what can be expected from a D/S relationship with an emphasis on communication, consent and safety. Highly recommend.

The book was a decent primer for exactly what it says: beginners.
It portrayed BDSM and dominance and submission in a safe, sane, and consensual light and covered the high points pretty well. It did leave some things out that it should have hit on, even for an introductory book, but overall it was decent.
