Safewords & The Murky Messy Nuances of BDSM - Ep 194

In episode 194 of American Sex Podcast, Sunny Megatron continues her deep dive into the murky, messy, nuances of kink. She examines some of the most popular kink "rules" pertaining to consent & safewords and the grey areas that cause community friction: "Never renegotiate during a scene" "When there's a problem someone will use their safeword" "Never do heavy impact without a warm-up" "Safewords can be abused" "Safewords are for sex and BDSM" This episode will help you diversify what's in your consent toolbox, assess risks in intimate situations, evaluate exceptions to BDSM rules, differentiate personal preferences from useful & inclusive best practices, and more.
