Your Kink Isn't My Kink, but Your Kink Is OK.
Your Kink Isn't My Kink, but Your Kink Is OK.
This is the real world where not everyone likes everyone else for a variety of reasons, unfortunately, too many people dislike others because of their skin color, gender, sexuality, culture, and yes, even their kinks. Kinksters know what it feels like to hide their desires, worry about legal problems, and deal with rejection from friends and family. Because of this, the BDSM community, for the most part, is an open and accepting group. Even if we aren't into the same kinks, we know exactly how it feels to be kinky in a vanilla world.
A lot of times when exploring BDSM you will run into things you do not like, but we always say Your Kink Isn't My Kink, but Your Kink Is OK. The golden rule in BDSM is to treat others the way you want to be treated. When we say this we are not talking about predictors or people who take advantage of real underage people or people new to bdsm their kink is not my kink and it is not okay.
Dominant and submissive acts are not always sexual. I know people that play hard. They're just friends, but nothing sexual exists between them. Their relationship is one of friendship , and playing is a release for them . This is a kink something that helps them release stress and relax, but for some they can not play with anyone except their partner and that is okay. What one likes another may not, but as we say Your Kink Isn't My Kink, but Your Kink Is OK.
The best line I ever read about kinkshaming is pretty simple. "I like it and that's all that counts" It’s like the golden rule for kinksters.
Remember what happens between consenting adults is between them. Outside opinions are not needed or wanted. Feel free to express your dislike or discomfort for an act or a scene. That's your right, but don't attempt to make someone feel bad for enjoying something you find distasteful.
Think about this: as someone who is interested in exploring BDSM, you may find that friends and family wonder about your sanity, your morals, and your ethics because, unfortunately, some kinksters are often looked upon as sexual deviants. Don’t treat a fellow kinkster the same way simply because they're into some fetish or kink you don't like or understand. Treat others as you wish to be treated worked when you were younger, and it works now.
For the most part, people in the BDSM community will welcome you with open arms regardless of your personal kinks. Make sure you extend the same courtesy to others.
