Yet some of those writers lack any real time experience and everyone still recommends them highly.

Nope but I know several who have zero experience in real life who have written several books on the scene. If you ever went out and met anybody you would also know that.
Any chance you have the balls to be specific in your accusations? There aren't all that many books that are ones that "everyone still recommends" so you are insulting a pretty small group of people. Pretty cowardly in my opinion.
I have objections to some of the "books everyone still recommends" but I have stated those to the face of the authors when I met them at private parties and events in SF. Jay and I have conversed about the joys of "organizational masochism" and my copy of his bondage book is so signed. Midori I have been to intimate classes at QSM as well as smaller private events and was truly surprised by her humility and groundedness. Dossie as I said, I have employed as a therapist. While I have never met John Warren, we have traded a few insults but I still respect his book.
Are there charlatans out there? Sure, but not among what most of us would consider the cannon of bdsm literature. So again, are you going to have the class and balls to actually state your accusations or just hide behind vague generalities?
