The Local Sex Shop Podcast, ep. 5b: Beginners Guide to BDSM

An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but what if your dominant makes you only eat apples for a week?

In the second instalment of our introduction to BDSM, Roan shares with us the points of attraction for kinksters. What are the emotional and psychological motives for someone to be submissive or dominant? Do kinky people look a certain way and can you tell what their roles are by their day-to-day personalities?

Are dominants aggressive and submissives obedient followers? What is the relevance of childhood trauma in kinky inclinations? Can BDSM have a healing aspect to it? Is there a kinky scene in Groningen?

Have a listen to our new episode and find out for yourself!
