The Erotic Realm podcast explores eroticism in all its forms, including the darker desires of BDSM and kinky sexuality. It’s mission is to humanise eroticism one erotic realm at a time.
In this episode I sit down with J to explore a journey that began with curiosity and evolved into a deeper understanding of kink, intimacy, and erotic identity. Together we discuss her experiences in sex work, her fascination with the psychology of desire, and how joining FetLife to better understand other people’s kinks ultimately helped her discover parts of herself she hadn’t fully recognised.
We explore:
Kink curiosity and self-discovery.
Introducing a partner to BDSM.
Marriage and erotic exploration.
Sex work and the psychology of desire.
Ownership dynamics and intimacy.
Women’s pathways into kink.
Research book: Women and Kink.
