"The Care and Treatment of Particularly Fair Women" was written and published by Dr. Geoffrey Brand as a guide for gentlemen that had taken his 'students' as brides. His academy, located in London, taught young women subservience as well as bedroom skills. The manual is circa 1890, but there is no publishing date printed. Below is the introduction to the manual and I will add chapters as I have time to type them in.
An Introduction
A great many extolments have been amassed around the quality of virtue of female virginity, that is to say that to have a virgin in the bridal bed is the pinnacle of carnal delight. That is simply not a true declaration. The readers’ possession of this particular volume attests that, like myself, have been enlightened to the essentials of a woman trained in the arts of the recently translated Kama Sutra as well as other equally inspiring tomes and rituals. The woman you have chosen to share your bed chamber with will fulfill you like no virgin could hope to achieve in her lifetime. This woman has been trained in many fantastical ways to pleasure you and be subservient to you and in many cases in ways you have not dreamed upon yet. Thus this brief guidebook to how your woman has been inculcated with varied commands and what those commands entail.
It has been my fervent belief that every man should have a wife such as the one you have chosen for yourself. My academy has demanded that of her and so you should as well. Take heed of the aged-culled wisdom within these few pages and like a prized horse, constantly drill these skills so they do not grow lax.
Humbly, Dr. Geoffrey Brand
Chapter One
The art of keeping a woman in thralldom is akin to caring for a graceful English Thoroughbred, that is, a combination of stern discipline and kind generosity of spirit. The former helps contribute to the ongoing relationship between the gentleman and his woman; that he is the sole master of her fate and body. The later helps instill a bond in that relationship that will make it endure a lifetime of trials and revels.
The first way of discipline is, like all fine equestrians know, is the bridle and harness in which the master can guide his young ward. There is nothing finer than to see a fair woman moving gracefully in full harness; her wrists captured in manacles, her slender ankles hobbled, her neck graced with collar and a bit placed between her teeth. The woman that bears my scholarship knows how to wear these willingly and with skill. That is to say, that she is not some mere prisoner clapped in irons, rather, she knows how to use her charms as effectively, if not more so, than as if she was unfettered.
Manacles are the first and foremost way of restraining your fair woman whether her wrists are locked behind her back or front. Be careful, however, to perceive her comfort in all manner. An oft spurred horse becomes ill-tempered. She is, in public, your wife and ill-treatment of her reflects poorly upon you. Manacles can be uncomfortable if locked to tight or their wearer is forced to retire in certain positions. Of course, she has been schooled into wearing such and has, to be sure, certain tolerances as such. Make sure, as a gentleman, you know those tolerances.
The wearing of manacles, especially when locked behind, also makes your woman’s silhouette that much more feminine. It presents to you, the gentleman, one of her greatest attributes.
The choice on manacle depends upon the gentleman’s desire, however from personal experiences; different manacles lend themselves to different situations. Manacles of metal, be they iron, steel, bronze or brass, are much more for showing than for daily use. You can put on parade your fair woman at shows held from time to time, of which you will be notified if you so desire. Manacles of leather are much more suited for domestic use for they are more comfortable than metal and can be just as secure.
