"Everything in the world is about sex, except sex. Sex is about power."- Oscar Wilde
" Sex is... perfectly natural. It's enjoyable and it enhances a relationship. So why don't we learn as much as we can about it and become comfortable with ourselves as sexual human beings because we are all sexual?"-Sue Johanson
"Over the years, I've been described in many ways, but I suppose the word 'pervert' pretty much does cover it. I've done many things, had many different jobs, and have only gotten more and more perverted as time wore on. At one point, I met a few like-minded people who had formed a very loose "swingers club' to have group sex, sex exhibitions, and such. They were all very wild, open-minded, and well-adjusted people.
The group evolved into a more organized, and very exclusive, club. Everyone that belonged was rather perverted but extremely discreet. Each new member or family was thoroughly vetted and we made sure that all enjoyed rather extreme, kinky sex and included a wide variety of perversions. All were heavily into things like incest, exhibitionism, S&M/BDSM, extreme fetishes of all sorts, and many other interesting things. This was not just some 'swingers' group, although there were some members who did get involved with other, more vanilla swingers/swappers groups."- Ole Crannon
Smut Quotes
Welcome to BDSM, where limits are tested and rules broken! This guide will clarify the difference between kink and fetish, navigating BDSM slang with definitions, examples, and more.
What is BDSM??
BDSM stands for Bondage, Domination, Sadism, and Masochism. It's a lifestyle focused on consensual power exchange, sensation play, sensory deprivation, and communication–all vital for safety and enjoyment.
Kink vs. Fetish: Aren’t They the Same??
While often used interchangeably, "kink" and "fetish" have distinct meanings in BDSM.
Kink: Deviant Sex Practices
Kinks are "twists" to spice up your love life. These broad activities, like role-playing, dirty talk, or dominance/submission, may not always be sexual.
Examples:
Role Play: Becoming someone else during intimacy.
Bondage: Restraining someone for arousal and trust.
Sensory Play: Using feathers, ice, or wax for heightened sensation.
Fetish: A Deeper Desire
A fetish is a strong, inherent attraction to a specific object, material, or body part. Fetishes can be fundamental to a person's sexual identity and may even be necessary for arousal.
Common Examples:
Foot Fetish: Sexual preference for feet, shoes, socks, or boots.
Leather OR Latex: Preference for the feel or look of leather or latex.
Cross-Dressing: Arousal from wearing clothes of the opposite sex.
Kink & Fetish: Compare and Contrast
While both can involve "sexytime circumstances," their use and emotional impact differ
Glossary of Slang Terms and Definitions
A mini BDSM dictionary:
Safe Word: A phrase to stop any action.

Dominant (dom): The controlling person in a BDSM dynamic.
Submissive (Sub): The person relinquishing control.
Switch: Someone who enjoys both dominant and submissive roles.
The Importance of Communication
Full disclosure is crucial for both kinks and fetishes. Discussing limits and safe words prevents mixed signals and builds trust. Check in on your partner during a scene. Be aware of the state of your environment.
Navigating the BDSM Lifestyle
Search Together: Discuss kinks and fetishes with partners to build trust and intimacy.
Attend Workshops or Events: Find local workshops, events, or munches to learn and meet others.

Kink vs. Fetish: What is the distinction??
The primary differentiating component of kink and fetish is that kink is a preference or “liking” that enhances sexual arousal, while fetish is a necessity to achieve stimulation. All fetishes can be kinks, but not all kinks are fetishes.
Embrace Your Desires
BDSM has no rules; you custom make them. Whether you prefer kinks, fetishes, or a mix, there's a community that will accept you. Always remember: consent, safety, and communication are paramount.
