  • Summary

  • Please note: This audio features graphic content, adult language, and references to sexual assault that may be upsetting to some listeners. Discretion is advised.

    Kink is moving into the mainstream, and it’s time we started talking about it.

    From a dominant’s dungeon to a London fetish club, sex expert Alix Fox explores some of the kinky places many of us never get to visit, and dives deep into some of our most private fantasies.

    She examines kinky sex from all the angles - personal, political, psychological, physiological, historical, and more - to try and help us understand our desires and those of the people around us.

    Each episode explores kink from a different era, including contemporary stories and expert voices. How common is kink? Why do we like it? Where does shame come from? Is it healthy? And, what are its politics?

    A Just Radio production for Audible Originals.

very informative

I liked that it was looked at from both an academic perspective as well as the perspective from people within the lifestyle, both veterans and newbies alike. The humor that Alix and others used was well timed and tasteful. Lots of the topics, especially around consent and our reactions to it, have made me realize I need to adapt my own reactions.
