Boston, MA -- When you're a kinky girl, the dating world can be hit or miss.

That's what self-described kinkster Luna Grey has learned while trying to find love with folks who are into bondage and domination as much as she.

For one thing, bringing up the subject of chains and floggers with a new partner isn't easy and Grey suggests you shouldn't "run out to the car to get the riding crop on the first date."

Also, first impressions aren't always 100 percent accurate in determining potential perverts. Grey says she knows "librarians and businessmen who are truly sick and goth-types with all sorts of piercings who think spanking is risque."

She says it's important for aspiring kinky girls to know their options and interests and not be afraid to say no if an activity goes beyond their chosen boundaries.

Grey discusses the ins and outs of dating in a B&D world with a new book, "The Kinky Girl's Guide To Dating" (Greenery Press).
