  • 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?

Eye opening and well made

This series explored the history and politics surrounding kink, as well as the usual topics surrounding kink such as consent which was refreshing. Learned a lot from a narrator who was charming and carried out interviews with pleasant and well informed individuals. A great listen for anyone, even if kink isn't your thing.

Very informative

Kink is very informative, lighthearted and covers very serious topics. Whether you think your kinky or not you should listen to this, it covers consent very well. A brilliant listen.

Adults only

An insight into something many of us would hide from but secretly love to try. Yes it is basic in some ways, crude but very interesting for any normal adult.

Interesting facts and real stories

Easy to listen to. Gives the history of kinks and real people's stories which you may or may not connect too. Over all a good listen especially when there's nothing else.

great introduction to kink and kinky people

I found the topics discussed well researched, the explanations were good, the interviews informative and fun. I loved the scientific background information and the storyline - definitely a great listen no matter if you are new or experienced in the topic.
