Episode notes
What Counts As Kinky
- Kinky broadly means sexual play outside the mainstream, often centered on BDSM (bondage, discipline, sadomasochism).
- BDSM can include domination/submission, role play, sensory and emotional edge-play that mixes pain and pleasure.
Use Safe Words And Aftercare
- Always create a clear consent contract and agree on a safe word before any BDSM scene.
- Use aftercare to process the scene and check boundaries, especially if the safe word was used.
Check Internal Consent First
- Check your internal consent: ask yourself if you genuinely want to participate and not feel obligated.
- Avoid participating out of autopilot or obligation, as that risks turning consensual play into abuse.
