But like do you think this is GOOD to be teaching people about the lifestyle? It's not at all accurate and PLEASE tell me you were already here BEFORE you read that book cause I am sure a lot of people FOUND this place BECAUSE of that book and have NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE GETTING INTO!
The fact of the matter is, when things are presented like this as reality people get hurt. I have been parts of scenes (edge play) where EMTs had to be called and these were TRAINED PEOPLE doing shit. The sub was not actually hurt but passed out from shock, still yeah people are aware of the signs, trained in how to respond and not to panic. People die from these things when they aren't done safely, or get seriously injured. Any club I've gone to, worked at, or performed for has a RELEASE to sign, does not allow alcohol or any street drugs, and requires that if you are going to perform or work you are signed off on by a senior member at that club.
This is not a joke, yet people will take it as this light, fluffy thing and just TRY IT OUT because Hey My hero Ana totally did it and if she's fine totally must be fine for me.
Christian is an ABUSIVE ass, NOT a Dom. Then they say he's like that cause of years of child abuse when in most cases the exact OPPOSITE would have happened or he would have avoided the scene all together, not saying that there aren't Doms out there cause they were abused as children but I have never met one and been to A LOT of parties/meet and greets/munches you name it. What is in the book is an ABUSIVE relationship that is being romanticized and since people just assume that what they are being handed is accurate they won't research and just do, especially teenage girls who think this is the SHIT or SO HAWT and they NEED their version of CHRISTIAN to SAVE them when first of all you have to be pretty damn strong to accept your role as a sub anyway.
If you will say this is a guilty pleasure and trash and you like it but are kind of ashamed that's fine, but I do not see any actual GOOD coming of this.
A few of my friends followed E L James when she was on Fan Fiction dot net and this is basically how it went down.
She wrote a bunch of the FAN FICTION realized people wanted it, pulled it from the site and told them if they wanted to know how it ended they needed to buy it. She slapped a low price on it and E Published it and since people are stupid they paid for something she presented as FREE in the first place and should have NEVER CHARGED FOR! Fan fiction is a free enterprise, I have TONS of FAR BETTER more accurate and JUICIER EROTIC fan fic up and links to it can be found on my profile page, would I ever CHARGE people for that shit? NO! Cause I didn't create it I didn't put 100% of hard work into it, I stole already established characters and canon and MADE a story that's not GENIUS that's ripping off someone.
Then because of her sales of E Publishing which she did her self and costs NO MONEY to do on Amazon any idiot can do it, she managed to gain enough attention by some company to go into print and that's where the world ended. If she would just admit that she saw she could make a DIME off of this I'd probably hate her a lot less. But she wants to be seen as some GENIUS artist when she really created NOTHING! The parallels in the book to Twilight are VERY VERY close and not only that she is British, uses British slang through the whole thing but it takes place in...what do you know WASHINGTON STATE where Twilight takes place. Ana is VERY close to the name Bella. She basically knows how to use the WORD REPLACE function on her computer and look up the term BONDAGE in the dictionary, she certainly didn't check Wikipedia to write that because then this book would be far more informed.
No this book isn't for everyone and there are a lot of writers I hate, but I have never EVER wished someone would just VANISH along with their work OTHER than her. This has nothing to do with me being jealous or not thinking of it first when I am a FAR better writer of EROTIC FAN FICTION Than she'll EVER be and like I said, link on my profile page if you don't think I can surpass her pile of PUKE that people call a MASTERPIECE!
Now she gets a MOVIE deal, this shit is going to spread like wildfire and all of us people in the know who take it seriously get to shake our heads and be like OMG SO MANY BETTER STORIES ARE OUT THERE! Are you saying The Story of O is BORING? Or how about the movie SECRETARY!? Like really? THIS is better than THOSE two things which should get WAY more attention than this GARBAGE! No none of this is fair, and as a struggling author who isn't trying to make a fortune just sustain herself, make rent every month and be able to afford health insurance this SUCKS. She is going to lower the standards immensely. Pretty soon every 14 year old girl will be changing names and small phrases in any crappy "Safe" teenage novel and E Publishing and the whole literary GENRE will become a JOKE! And I sit here with years of HARD WORK under my belt and I get to watch it all collapse while wondering what the hell happened. THAT"S why I hate this shit SO MUCH!
