Review
Among the topics Haberman covers here include basic male anatomy (and there's quite a bit to know about it!), negotiation and safewords, play benefits and risks involved, safe sex play and cleaning CBT toys, all very important subjects to cover. There's also a chapter devoted to various CBT toys,

When we hear or see the term CBT we think "torture" and that usually makes us all cross our legs. But Haberman's book is really focused on creating intense or simply pleasureable sensations for male genitals in ways that do not involve intercourse.

The great thing about CBT play is the simplicity of it all. Who needs Torquemada when you have Ace Hardware? For that matter, your local OnLine outlet? Go buy yourself some rubber bands (you'll see that in the "On Target" chapter) or even a bag of clothespins, and you've got an instant starter kit.

I am not a doctor, though I may play one in the dungeon. Because of that, I strongly suggest taking any serious medical questions you might have about the safety of a particular activity to your physician. If you do not feel comfortable talking with him or her about these kinds of things, perhaps you need a different doctor. There are lots of qualified professionals out there who will understand, sometimes it just takes a little shopping around to find them. I can, however, give you some general advice on how to play safely that I have learned. This isn’t rocket science, it’s just common sense. First, don’t break your toys. The toys I am talking about are not those you buy, but those you or your play partner were born with. Don’t do anything that is going to cause permanent damage to the penis or testicles. If you have a question if something will cause permanent damage, err on the side of caution. Get qualified medical advice if necessary, and that does not mean after the fact! Second, make sure everything you do has been negotiated. This does not mean you have to have a list with lengthy details of exactly what will happen in a scene for your partner to sign off on. It means that you and whoever you are going to play with have a reasonable idea of what may be involved and what general direction the scene will go. It also means having some sort of safeword or signal that either player can use to end the scene for whatever reason necessary. Tops can have safewords, too! The negotiation can be very simple, especially if you are known for a specific kind of scene. You simply ask the bottom if they know what kind of scenes you like. If they answer in the affirmative, and they can tell you a little of what they expect, you are going to be fine. If either the Top or bottom cannot talk reasonably about their expectations in a scene, then it’s probably a good idea to not play at all. Third, and this is important. Be aware of any health problems prior to the scene starting. For example if you are playing with a man who has Asthma, be sure he has any needed medications available. Sometimes while playing, some bottoms hyperventillate and that may trigger an asthma attack. Having a rescue bronchodilator handy can save a trip to the hospital. A person with a communicable disease such as HIV or any other blood borne pathogen will change the way you play with them.

Playing with the lower brain.
Own up to it. You've seen the cover of this book or maybe flipped through a couple of the stories and you can barely contain the urge to get to the juicy stuff. Maybe you've already absorbed Hardy Haberman's original "The Family Jewels: A Guide to Male Genital Play and Torment" and were starving for more. But maybe you're not. Why, you may ask, do I want somebody to get anything remotely painful down there?!? I mean, they're a perfectly good set of testes and I happen to be quite attached to them, you say.

Good question. Perfectly reasonable, for that matter. After all, one does not want to go to the play party a baritone and come home a falsetto. Hardy once described himself to me as a "Pain Technician," and I can certainly vouch for the veracity of that claim. I have seen him in action, and he can definitely make you dance. I also know that everyone went home afterwards with big canary-eating grins on their faces, including Hardy. Keep that in mind as you start perusing these real-life narratives of balls that went bump in the night.

Think of all those sensitive, tingly nerve endings on a length of skin you can get your thumb and forefinger around. And up. And down. Lube, repeat, rinse. Because if you're reading this, you've probably given more than a passing fantasy over to the thrills of CBT. After all, how many TV shows and movies tantalize us with the exciting threat? Everyone from James Bond to Jack Bauer has hooked our viewing to scenes of men getting their privates worked over.

The great thing about CBT play is the simplicity of it all. Who needs Torquemada when you have Ace Hardware? For that matter, your local OnLine outlet? Go buy yourself some rubber bands (you'll see that in the "On Target" chapter) or even a bag of clothespins, and you've got an instant starter kit. As Hardy explains throughout this book, you don't have be a member of The Spanish Inquisition or earning a six figure income to get a good scene off the ground. CBT is one of many forms of SM easily done on a miniscule budget. It hardly even needs to be threatening. It's Erotica on Two Dollars a Day.

You've got "More Family Jewels" on your computer screen. You're now among friends. You're friends just happen to be kinky and have a fascination with tormented sex organs. If you've ever given thought to letting someone get their fingers across the folds of your scrotum (or vice-versa), you've come to the right place. Read on, no matter what your experience level. Take notes, experiment. That valuable spot between your ears is going to start dreaming up all sorts of excitement for the smaller valuable spot in a somewhat lower region. Click that button...you know you want it..

How-To with a Touch of Narrative
The first SM book I can recall that used fiction as a way to approach the question of how do conduct a scene was John Warren's "Safe, Sane, Consensual and Fun". Much like that book, Haberman here recalls some of his favorite CBT (cock & ball "torture") scenes. Instead of laying it the how-to as he did in his first book, he uses a narrative style to share his experience with the reader while focusing on the details of what he (and any co-top) technically did in the scene. It's a good read but don't think that just because you read it you will know how to do CBT or anything else kinky safely. I'm still a big believer in learning from doing under expert guidance but books can give you basic information and help you determine if it's something you want to try.
