I welcome email from any other advocates of the 36 steps. If you are a student of the discipline and feel that I have given out incorrect information, please send me an email. I am attempting to share the philosophy as accurately as possible, but in the most simply terms.
The 36 Step Approach is a philosophy and a discipline that is dedicated to allowing a woman to reach the highest levels of pleasure possible. This philosophy requires the male to maintain a high degree of disciple and control. A typical session will last around 3 to 4 hours. If both parties are experienced, the time can be reduced. However, the bottom line is that this approach is not QUICK.
Since the male's pleasure comes only in the end, the male should go into the session knowing that this session is for her. The male has to remember that the 36 Steps were developed for the WOMAN. It was meant for times when it is HER night. Each piece of the 36 steps was designed around the woman's plateaus and pleasure cycles. Even though the 36 steps are for the woman, a man that takes a woman through the steps will reap many future rewards. After a woman has travelled the journey, she learns herself and can experience pleasures in an entirely different way. She tends to include some of the lessons learned into her own style. The other way that a male can gain from these steps is in payback. A lot of women feel a debt for the pleasure that they received from their partner. They will often return the favor.
The 36 Step Approach was really misnamed. The steps are not actually a list of actions that will bring a woman to pleasure. The steps are actually a series of "states of being" or "key guide-posts" toward the goal. It assumes that a Woman's Mental, Emotional and Physical sides are interlinked and uses input from each side to determine the woman's currect position in the steps.
The major theme of the 36 steps is relaxation and increasing sensitivity. It also focuses on reducing anxiety and increasing emotional closeness.
For you that believe in the 52 step approach, you should be warned that I disagree with that approach with all my heart. I believe that system is a bunch of hogwash. In my humble opinion, the teachings of the 52 Steps were developed by some ego-centric selfish man as a way of taking advantage of young women's ignorance. I stand opposed to the system and will fight it anyway that I can.
