BDSM Myth Inspired By the Fifty Shades Trilogy!

Sexy woman in blindfold on bed

The ‘Fifty Shades Darker’ trailer was released earlier this week and has already been viewed 114 million times; dethroning ‘The Force Awakens’ as the most viewed trailer in first 24 hours. Whether you love it or hate it, you can’t deny that’s it a wildly popular series that has had a huge impact on the sex industry. What needs to be emphasised is that Fifty Shades is not an accurate picture of what BDSM is all about. Popular misconceptions have prevented many people from expanding their sexual repertoire – focusing on the abusive and dangerous aspects, and ignoring the sensual, playful and oh so naughty fun that can be had. We are here to change that. Here’s some of the most common BDSM myths – let’s see how they compare to the truth. Continue reading BDSM Myth Inspired By the Fifty Shades Trilogy!

All scenes, no matter what the focus is, should include responsible aftercare. Once a BDSM play scene has ended, it hasn’t really ended – the intimate and emotional connections will still be there, and so aftercare is important for everyone involved. Aftercare doesn’t need to be overly sentimental or grand, it just needs to be an intentional display of appreciation and acknowledgment that will ensure you and your partner return to an everyday state of mental, emotional, and physical steadiness.

Flogging is form of BDSM involving dominance, submission and often bondage. This kink consists of one person, known as the ‘bottom’, being struck by another person, known as the ‘top’. Floggers consist of strands of leather, or other materials, called falls. The falls are attached to a firm handle, which are often wrapped in leather for easier gripping. Compared to other impact play toys, the flogger has the most options of any non-electric tool in the kinky toolbox, and they provide a wide range of sensation with a minimal amount of risk.

The first thing I’d like to highlight is; once a BDSM play scene has ended, it hasn’t really ended. The intimate and emotional connections will still be there, and so aftercare is important for everyone, even those who consider themselves ‘experts’ at BDSM play.
