Not at all! BDSM includes power dynamics, sensory play, and deep trust-building. It’s about finding what excites you, whether that’s a blindfold and a feather or cuffs and a flogger.

Light bondage (silk ties, handcuffs), sensory play (blindfolds, temperature play), or experimenting with dominance and submission in small ways - like letting one partner take control, is a really good start.

Start by talking about fantasies, boundaries, and interests. A simple “ What do you think about trying …?” can open up a whole new world.

1000% yes. Consent isn’t just a “yes” or “no” - it’s an ongoing conversation. Safe words, clear communication, and mutual trust is the most important part of the BDSM world. It’s important than when stepping out of your comfort zone as a couple, you listen to each other and go on that journey together. You should never feel pressured into doing anything you aren’t comfortable with. That goes for solo players as well.

After an intense scene, both partners may need physical or emotional comfort - like cuddling, warm drinks, or just checking in with each other. It’s like the encore to a great show - absolutely necessary and the cherry on top.
