Episode 39: From Vanilla to Varied - A Beginner's Guide to Exploring Kink Taboo to Truth: Unapologetic Conversations About Sexuality in Midlife

    • Sexuality

In today's episode, I'm diving into the world of kink, a term that captures a broad spectrum of activities beyond the conventional or "vanilla" intimate practices. Kink isn't just about the extreme of dungeons and dramatic scenarios; it's fundamentally about venturing into desires that stray from one's usual experiences, which could be as straightforward as altering the ambiance with different lighting. Within this realm, BDSM stands out as a notable subset, encompassing bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, and sadomasochism. Many people find kink a playful and explorative outlet, a healthy way to relieve stress, and an avenue for fostering deep trust and communication with their partners. This journey into understanding kink and BDSM invites us to broaden our perspective on the diversity of human pleasure and the ways in which adults can engage in consensual, informed, and joyful exploration. ************************************************************* Have a burning question or topic suggestion? karen@taboototruth.com ⁠⁠⁠https://www.taboototruth.com/⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/taboototruth https://www.youtube.com/@taboototruthpodcast *this podcast is not intended to give medical advice.
