There are many misconceptions about what BDSM is, but if approached with the idea that it is a conscious lifestyle choice, it might be more properly understood. Or do you find yourself wondering what would the perfect submissive do, what would they say, how would they act, what would they wear, and so on? Being a submissive involves a lot more than submitting to your dom’s will, dressing up, and speaking down. You have to pay attention to your whole being - how you think, react, feel, position yourself, speak, and look.

The three scenarios in this book put you in the place of a man who's been diapered and is being taken care of by a dominant woman. In all scenarios you sit silently as these women talk directly to you. Some of them are nice to you, others much stricter. Diapers, bottles, pacifiers, and accidents are among some of the ABDL themes you can expect to find.
