Yes, Ma'am: Its a mixed bag July 24, 2010 Scandalouswomen (Atlanta, GA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
With "Yes, Ma'am: Erotic Stories of Male Submission," Rachel Kramer-Bussel has assembled an anthology of Penthouse Forum-syle Female Domination stories and experiences that will serve as an excellent introduction to the lifestyle for the beginner and the curious. There's nothing too extreme here and the more experienced players will probably shrug this collection off, believing the further introduction of this material into mainstream America can only mean a weakened formula - Femdom lite, if you will. But that assessment would be a mistake. Most submissive men would surely agree that any respectful coverage of this theme can only serve to make the lifestyle more attractive to the woman they hope to one day call "Mistess."
The collection works best when experiences are shared or stories are told by the women contributors. Too often, the male authors' accounts, both in `Yes Ma'am' and countless blogs and sex magazine forum pages, read like the fantasies of teenage heavy metal fans. Fortunately, Rachel takes care to also include stories with people we can identify and sympathize with.
No volume of Femdom stories is going to escape the stereotype of a black leather-clad Dominatrix strutting around in stillettos and barking orders to a cowering and naked business man. But `Yes Ma'am' does an admirable job of confirming what most of us have long suspected - kink is advancing into mainstream American bedrooms and a generation of strong, independent, sexy women are leading the charge.

Great book!!! Touches on all aspects of D&S but is easy to read. Many of the stories are very erotic and aroused me. Well written but none of the stories are too long. Actually the sories that do go on the longest are the best. It was fun to fantasize about being in the stories myself and how I would react. All those lucky guys!!!
Female Dominance and Male Submission July 18, 2009 Amos Lassen (Little Rock, Arkansas) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Bussel, Rachel Kramer. ¡§Yes Ma¡¦am: Erotic Tales of Male Submission¡¨, Cleis Press, 2008.
Female Dominance and Male Submission
Amos Lassen
Let¡¦s turn the tables for a bit and read these 18 stories, all by different authors. Here the women are in charge and the men seem to love it. The women are assertive and powerful yet they love their men and have fun with them. Anyone who finds the idea of a sexy yet powerful top woman will find pleasure in these stories. The cover of the book lets you know what to expect inside (and it is suitable for framing º). Basically what the book does is show that pleasure best comes from the hand of the woman. There are plenty of situations here and all of the stories are great. Take for example the story of Jonathan who tries to be assertive to his girl just so he can participate in a three way with her and a friend or Henry who has fantasies of serving Loretta but is afraid the idea will scare her away from him, The there is Matthew who lives out his fantasy by working for Ms, Davis, his powerful boss, who makes him take care of the office and HER. This is unlike anything you have ever read before and it is totally erotic.
Yes Ma'am October 10, 2008 Dina Zelyony (Los Angeles, CA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Whether you want to spy on boys getting dominated, or you want to share the experience of being a submissive male or sexually powerful woman, Yes Ma'am will arouse and provoke. The men of Yes Ma'am all have an unquenchable thirst to be subordinated by a strong woman. A celebration of female strength, both inside the bedroom and out, Yes Ma'am is enticing and startling, particularly to the uninitiated. For those who are usually in the submissive position, whether male of female, these stories are highly relatable and capture the essence of longing to be and actually being controlled.
Good anthology on the subject. October 9, 2008 Luis R. Anaya (New Jersey, United States) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
1 Introduction
The book is short stories anthology that narrates sexual interactions between men and women in which the common theme is the one of women assuming a dominating role (physical or psychological) upon submissive males. All the stories narrate the story from the submissive male perspective. It is a coincidence that one of the books I have recently read were the Bradbury's Martian Chronicles. Even though the subject at hand is different, all short stories share the same attributes of being, capable of delivering its message in a small number of pages, stories must be, in a way "memorable", and usually have interesting twist and turns through the story. Does the authors deliver? I would say yes... for the most part.
2 Technical Commentary
The book is well redacted with colloquialism restrained only where they were needed. The editor should pat herself on keeping readability up. Being English my second language, I can also state that advanced ESL students should be able to read this book without too much trouble (ESL at the high school to college, keeping in mind the subject at hand).
The stories in the book do tell different aspects of the "female domination" lifestyle. Thankfully, it does not constraint itself in describing the typical "dungeon dome" wearing leather with a full array of torture devices. The book expands from the customary imaging of the female domination theme by telling different types of male domination fantasies in which by doing so, keeps the the interest of the reader as it goes through the stories.
3 Subjective Commentary
Short stories are also "like a box of chocolates (to paraphrase Forest Gump)". There's always the one you'll like and the one that you do not. In this case my favorite story was "Tea for Three". I personally think that It was witty and unexpected which is just what I look when I read a collection of short stories.
The least I liked was "Zero Sum Game". I found it formulaic and laden with what you expect in a "dominatrix movie"; an odd choice for it to be the first story of the book. I have to admit that I got apprehensive after going through it because it sets the expectation on how the rest of the book was going to be. However my fears were put to rest after I kept reading through the book.
4 Conclusion
I would certainly recommend the book for people that might be interested in the subject because of the variety of situations that deal with the central subject. However, be mindful that if you have morality qualms on the subject, you are advised to move along. Even though it is a well written piece of literature, I can assure you that you will certainly not enjoy it.
If readers are looking for an anatomy class, this may not be the book for you either. Yes, there are explicitly sexual situations through out the book, but they are all tastefully written. In some cases there are no sexual situation to speak of because the story is dealing with the psychological aspect of domination rather than the physical one. This is one of the attributes that I appreciated as a reader, the fact that the book that it was not as "heavy handed" as other authors that have written on the subject.
In a nutshell: If you are not afraid on reading about those obscure corners of the human sexuality, You will enjoy these stories too.
