THIS WEEK IN NEWS: Kink at Pride https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1665592597476155393/pu/vid/1280×720/5KrZUW9YJ7e-dCCZ.mp4?tag=12 [https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1665592597476155393/pu/vid/1280x720/5KrZUW9YJ7e-dCCZ.mp4?tag=12] VIEWER QUESTIONS * MELISSA FROM COLORADO I’ve heard the term “aftercare” being mentioned in discussions about BDSM. Could you explain what aftercare entails and why it’s considered an important aspect of the BDSM community? * EMILY FROM NEW YORK I’ve always been curious about the psychological aspect of BDSM. Can you shed some light on the role of dominance and submission in BDSM dynamics, and how it can enhance intimacy and connection between partners? * RACHEL FROM TEXAS As someone who identifies as a switch, I’m curious about the unique dynamics that emerge when two switches engage in BDSM activities. What are some common experiences, challenges, or negotiation strategies that switches encounter in order to navigate their shared power dynamics effectively?

THIS WEEK IN NEWS: ‘I accidentally found out my dad is into swinging and BDSM – I wish I never saw’ https://www.dailystar.co.uk/love-sex/i-accidentally-found-out-dad-29104552 [https://kinkinthechain.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/DALL·E-2023-04-12-12.11.37-father-handcuffs-300x300.png] VIEWER QUESTIONS * MICHELLE FROM GEORGIA I have a service dog. I’ve had her for quite some time. I am just getting into BDSM in general and wanted to know how a service dog would be received at my local dungeon or munch. Is there anything I should do to prepare the dog? Anything I should do to prepare the venue? How do you navigate having a service dog and being into kink? * JOSH FROM TEXA So I’ve been seeing people posting memes of modded sex and kink toys on the internet. A Hitachi covered in thumb tacks for example. Are these kinds of toys real, or is it just for the meme/laugh? * KENDRA FROM OREGON My partner has been trying to expand his skills when it comes to kink. To that end, he has been watching tutorial videos on both YouTube and TikTok. However, when he goes to do the action, it’s not quite right. I want to correct him in the moment, but I feel it would ruin the mood. Is it ok to correct him during scenes (ie: topping from the bottom) or should I wait until after we do aftercare, or even later?

THIS WEEK IN NEWS: Lessons from Kink https://philadelphiaweekly.com/lessons-from-kink/ [https://philadelphiaweekly.com/lessons-from-kink/] [https://kinkinthechain.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/kink1-300x200.jpg] VIEWER QUESTIONS * KEN FROM RHODE ISLAND   I joined the community in the last two years. Thanks to COVID I feel that (or at least it is my perception that) all the veterans retired early. Some retreated to their own home dungeons (either old or newly constructed). When I first started those were the people that I went to if I wanted to vet someone. Now that they are gone, how do I go about making sure someone is safe to play with? * JESSIE FROM NEBRASKA   Having attended a public dungeon in the past, I have been taught about safewords. And I understand them. However, I have this fear of using them for fear of embarrassing my top. I know that they are necessary but I worry that I won’t be able to use them when the time comes. Any advice? * KOREY FROM WASHINGTON   While we are all trying to be as safe as we can, I still attend munches and there are still venues for play. Meeting people I can do at munches, but how can I be safe if I want to do pick-up play?

THIS WEEK IN NEWS: Fetishcore Is Here To Release Your Fashion Inhibitions https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2022/04/10956214/fetishcore-bdsm-fashion-trend [https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2022/04/10956214/fetishcore-bdsm-fashion-trend] [https://kinkinthechain.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/10956338-300x300.png] INTERVIEW WITH ANDREW, NICOLE, AND CACIA FROM SHORT FILM AND SERIES THANATOS [https://kinkinthechain.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Thanatos-1030x676.png] Andrew (Aaron) – Actor and Director and Writer Andrew grew up on the gulf coast of Texas. He studied Philosophy in college, and he has spent most of his adult years trying to figure out how to tell a good story through moving pictures and sound. You can find Thanatos and other work at Andrewcfisher.com Cacia – Actor Right after Cacia popped out of her mom’s womb, she was dancing! She always knew she wanted to be a performer and artist. She visited New York when she turned 16 and took an acting class throughout the summer. After that summer her life was never the same. She went back to Taiwan and came back to New York the first chance she got. Her creativity is versatile and spread through many different mediums. Whether she’s in front of the camera or behind it, with herself or collaborating with others, she has an immense passion for performance and art. If she’s not moving or creating, she’s on her way to. Nicole – Line Producer Made things happen. Coordinating everything.   Questions for the cast/crew: What experience do you all have in the BDSM or Kink Communities? I love the way you all demonstrate BDSM in this film. It is so genuine and, dare I say, amateur or rather non-professional which makes it more real.  What were the most challenging parts of filming the short film and the series? How much research did you all have to do to get ready for these roles? Are the dominance and submission acting or does it come from real-life experience? What is the message you are trying to convey with this series? What do you want users to walk away with after seeing this series? Is the series more about the positive portrayal of kink or more about the relationship between Aaron and Jess (and about the falling out of Jess and Trey(?))? Or is it both? Check out the short film here: VIEWER QUESTIONS * KEN FROM CONNECTICUT     While I have a large group of people to play with, I keep debating trying out a pro domme. For some reason, I get uncomfortable about it. Like it makes me less of a kinkster because I want to pay for it. Having never done it, I guess, I am mostly just curious about what it is like. * KELLY FROM CALIFORNIA     I have gone to therapy for it, but whenever I get restrained, I get terrified. It might be something from childhood where my father used to hold me down and shout at me. It’s just a guess but probably the reason for my fear. However, in my efforts to get into the BDSM world, I have a panic attack whenever I get restrained. Do you have any tips to get over this fear? * JAY FROM ALBERTA, CANADA   As with dating, the kink and BDSM world is hard to find people. Not just play partners but with long-term relationships as well. I am lucky to have found someone and we are very happy in a monogamous relationship. We play and generally spend our lives together. As part of the relationship, we are both allowed to play with others. Some of those partners seem to want a lot more even though they know they can’t have it. They talk to me in ways that my partner might not approve of. I will never act on it, and I am sorry for rambling, but I guess my questions are these?   1. Where were these people when I was looking for a relationship? 2. Should I mention inappropriate messages sent to me by them to my partner? 3. Should I cut off communication with people who are pushing my relationship?

THIS WEEK IN NEWS: “The TSA Agent Opened My Bag And Went Absolutely Beet Red”: People Are Sharing The Wildest Encounters They’ve Had With TSA Agents, And They Range From Hilarious To Infuriating https://www.buzzfeed.com/ravenishak/weird-tsa-encounters [https://www.buzzfeed.com/ravenishak/weird-tsa-encounters]   [https://kinkinthechain.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/TSA-Baggage-Search-384x2851-1.jpg] INTERVIEW WITH A MIDNIGHT ANGEL [https://kinkinthechain.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/u1000-2-240x300.jpg] A Midnight Angel (she/her) is a spicy Latin switch and is the Alpha Submissive for the House of Sinergy.

FetLife Profile: https://fetlife.com/users/376150 [https://fetlife.com/users/376150] VIEWER QUESTIONS * TODD FROM WISCONSIN   I met someone at a munch recently. I am a top and she is a bottom. We have great scenes and a great time together. My only issue is that she is slightly stronger than I am. Sometimes she gets in a brat mood and I just can’t control her. Usually when she “wins” I have to give up and just stop the scene. This leaves us both feeling very upset. Any advice to avoid this? * BETTY FROM TEXAS   I am relatively new to kink in general but I keep seeing people with patches on their back denoting some title. A few weeks ago, I finally stopped and asked one of them about it. It was very informative. However my question is: are titles still something that people should run for? Are they respected? Is it something I should consider?   * KYLE FROM GEORGIA   I recently moved here and am trying to find my place in the community. Where I came from (Texas) I was comfortable in the community. People knew who I was and what I could do. Now I come here and no one trusts me because they don’t know me. I didn’t expect my credibility to transfer like a college credit but any advice for transplants trying to establish a name for themselves?
