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’m joined by Race Bannon — legendary BDSM educator, leatherman and author of Kink Is My Superpower to explore gay leather culture, power exchange, and the psychology of erotic freedom.
We explore:
Gay leather history and the evolution of BDSM culture.
Dominance, submission and the psychology of switching.
HIV, pup identities and changing queer erotic communities.
Kink as identity, belonging and liberation.
Can kink become a superpower?
