"A detailed, eye-opening account of the real sexual underground in America . . . a thorough and serious study."--PlayboyFrom Different Loving: In order to understand unusual sexualities such as dominance and submission, one first has to consider the question 'What is normal?' If the unique function of sex is reproductive--and the only reason men and women should engage in sex is for the purpose of creating a new life--then only heterosexual intercourse is normal. By this standard, many common acts, even contraception, must be considered aberrant. Reproductive relevance was the Victorian standard of normalcy, and even today many of the laws in the United States still abide by that model. But people have always pursued sex for both reproduction and for pleasure and well-being. We start from the premise that sex for pleasure is a normal human drive and is acceptable when it brings pleasure to both partners. From this perspective, D&S is simply a 'different' kind of loving. We hope to add to the greater body of knowledge about what people really do behind closed doors with the people they most love and trust. Perhaps Different Loving will help open the door for further research into the mystery, beauty, and complexity of human life and its diverse expressions. Praise for Different Loving "The definitive guide to the sexual styles of those who walk on the wild side."--Kirkus Reviews
"As a window on largely unexplored territory, Different Loving is a breakthrough in the dialogue on human sexuality, and a significant work of popular sociology."--South Bend Tribune
"A comprehensive primer on loving with leather and romance by riding crop."--Michael Musto, New York Daily News

Perfect Balance of Comfort and Support!!
Size: King / 2 Packs, Color: White/Soft
I’ve been using these pillows for a few days now, and they’ve been amazing. They’re soft but still have that medium-firm support that keeps my neck comfortable no matter how I sleep. The 100% cotton cover feels really smooth and breathable, and I love that they’re hypoallergenic.
They fluff up nicely after washing and keep their shape well. Honestly, they feel like hotel-quality pillows at home

Okay pillows
Size: King / 2 Packs, Color: White/Soft
Soft and comfortable, the only downside to the pillows is that the feathers pop out from the cover and pinch

Do not recommend
Size: Standard / 2 Packs, Color: White/Soft
At an Airbnb in Marine CA, these pillows were on my bed. They were so wonderful, I took a picture of the label so I could order them for myself. After a few weeks, the feathers began working out of casing and would poke my head. I then put them in two pillowcases thinking that would make a difference- nope. When I removed the outer pillowcase to launder, there were 69-80 little feathers between the two layers. I went back to my old pillows and although they aren’t as great as down pillows, I don’t miss being poked and finding little feathers between the pillowcases and in my bedroom. Four months later, I am still finding a few random feathers in my bedroom.
