Review

Fun book! Deep down, everyone wants to be / look / behave like some other creature. DEVIANT DESIRES gives us a startling new look at a few of these variations. -- Fakir Musafar, Father of the Modern Primitive movement

Katharine Gates is the smartest/sexiest/bestest/freshest/coolest/funniest sex researcher in the universe. This book is brilliant, thoroughly entertaining, and super-outrageous. Finally someone has done something sexually-oriented that is truly original. I dare you to read it and not get turned on! -- Annie Sprinkle, Queen of Kink, artist, author, sex pioneer

Book Description

DEVIANT DESIRES is a lavishly illustrated guide to the most fascinating and obscure outposts of the erotic frontier. Self-described pervert Katharine Gates takes us on an expedition into the latest sexual communities bursting forth at the beginning of the new millennium. Gone are the pretentious black-clad S/M posers and humorless fetish fashion victimsyoull meet the refreshingly funny and irreverent heroes and heroines of a do-it-yourself porn revolution.

Spurred on by the internet explosion, these deviants defy all expectations as they actively participate in creating their own erotic entertainment, forging new art, original literature and fluid sexual identities. Come grab a first peek as they radically subvert mass culture for their own nefarious sexual purposes. Nothing is sacred and anything can be sexualized, from Disney characters and B-Movie monsters to baked beans, childrens birthday balloons and Thanksgiving dinner. Youll never watch TV the same way again!

5.0 out of 5 stars Not for the Victorian or the easily upset, Jun 10 2004
By 
TammyJo Eckhart "TammyJo Eckhart" (Bloomington, Indiana United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Deviant Desires: Incredibly Strange Sex (Paperback)
This is an almost encyclopedia book that attempts to cover some of the non-normative ways in which folks get turned-on and get off. Warning: there are lots of picture here so if you find yourself upset by any of the subject covered, either don't read those chapters or don't buy the book. Gates does an excellent job of letting those with these desires speak for themselves without making many judgemental statements. In nine chapters and 235 pages she covers alot from human ponies to balloons and to fat fetishes or robot lust. A great exploration but perhaps not one most of us would want to read over and over.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific, informative, sexy, Feb 6 2003

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Deviant Desires: Incredibly Strange Sex (Paperback)
Think you're odd? Do you like to do "strange" things in bed? Have you ever found yourself fantasizing about something that you know is bizarre? Welcome to the real world, honey, where "deviant" sex is the norm. You may think that your penchant for panties or wish to squish is something no sane person would contemplate but you'd be wrong.

In Deviant Desires, author Katharine Gates goes for the jugular. Leaving the relatively "normal" realms of BDSM (Bondage & Discipline/SadoMasochism), transgenderism, and shrimping behind, the topics explored in Deviant Desires are completely "off the map" in comparison. Ranging from in-depth chapters on Pony Play to Balloon Fetishes with stops along the way about Giantesses, Crushing, and Fat fans, Gates raises the bar with each chapter. Even our old pal Romain Slocombe (see above) makes an appearance with his Broken Dolls photography near the end of the book.
My favorite chapter has to be the "catch all" finale to the book that addresses (among other things) attraction to androids ("My Living Doll" anyone?) and erotic fan fiction. The drawings of popular science fiction characters in compromising positions aren't easy to forget.

Gates is highly respectful of her subjects, neither exploiting them nor psychoanalyzing them. The fun the people have with their fetishes is apparent and rather "normalizing"! While the idea of people enjoying themselves while not indulging in "vanilla sex" may be offensive to some, this book is for the silent, (a)moral majority! (ISBN: 1890451037)

1.0 out of 5 stars Deviant Desires-Incredibly Strange Sex, Sep 19 2001
By 
"ae1969" (Columbus, OH United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Deviant Desires: Incredibly Strange Sex (Paperback)
yawn...i was looking for a little erotic stimulation to spice up my sex life and after perusing this book my boyfriend and I could hardly keep from laughing. It's a book of true fetishes, nothing erotic unless you fall into the small percentage of the population that gets off on, dressing up as a pony, furies, blown-up pictures of women transposed onto fake skyscapes, women over 400 lbs., or having unappetizing food poured over your head and body. I realize that to some folks, the above are exactly the ticket to ecstasy but unfortunately I was mislead by the title and was hoping for a little bondage or dress-up games.
