Elise Sutton Endorses Venus On Top

Venus On Top is recommended by Elise Sutton, author of Female Domination: An Exploration of the Male Desire for Loving Female Authority.

Venus On Top gives the mainstream woman a low-key non-intimidating introduction to the “woman-led” marriage.

Elise received the following letter from a man whose problem is similar to yours. See Elise's response and reasons for recommending the book below.

Q. Dear Ms Sutton,
I recently bought your book and enjoyed it immensely. I was thinking of giving it to my wife as a way to introducing her to the concept of female domination. However, after reading your book, I feel it is too intense for her at this time. Your book is an intelligent and honest look at femdom, it is tastefully written and a fine piece of literature, but due to the nature of the topics being discussed, I feel it would be too much for my wife to digest seeing that she is a total novice.

I believe my wife is a future candidate for the femdom lifestyle. She is a career woman who holds many feminist ideals but she is a serious woman who is not actively looking for excitement or variation in her life. I love her dearly and I want to introduce her to this lifestyle so we can share in it together but I do not want to push her into anything before she is ready.

My question to you is, do you know of a book that would introduce a woman to the concept of the female being in charge of the marriage relationship (including the concept of female domination in the bedroom), without being overly descriptive? I am seeking a book that will appeal to someone like my wife, while treading lightly on the more intense FemDom topics. I thank you for your time.

A. As a matter of fact, a woman I know has recently published a book that could be just what you are seeking. Her name is Barbara Wright Abernathy and she practices the Female Domination lifestyle with her husband. Her new book is entitled "Venus On Top: Women Who Are Born to Lead and the Men Who Love Them."

Barbara asked me to review her book and this is what I wrote for the testimonial:

“Venus On Top edifies and encourages the driven, career oriented woman by revealing to her that marriage, love and romance are possible in her life if she can overcome traditional societal expectations by embracing her inner female power.

Barbara Wright Abernathy intelligently and correctly reveals that the aggressive, dominant woman is at the head of the curve of a growing societal trend where women are in charge and men are their helpmates. I highly recommend this book."

While Barbara's book is not about the FemDom lifestyle per se, her book does include a chapter entitled “Men and Sex” where she encourages the woman to be open-minded about exploring female domination in the bedroom with her male partner. She even establishes the Three Platinum Rules for sex:

Rule #1. The primary goal of sex is the woman's pleasure.

Rule #2. The woman decides if, when, where and how.

Rule #3. When you forget Rule #2, refer to Rule #1.

Another chapter is entitled “Training Your Man or Why Real Women Don't Do Housework.” The book is all about female empowerment and encouraging women to embrace their feminine power. Barbara does this in an intelligent and gentle manner.
