I still remember that day exactly: It was a rainy Saturday afternoon two years ago. I was sitting in my car in front of the café, heart pounding up to my throat, and seriously considering just turning around and leaving. "What if everyone is weird? What if I don't fit in? What if someone recognizes me?" Those were just a few of the thoughts racing through my head. I was new to the BDSM scene – had read a lot online, had a few chats, but never met anyone in person. And now I was supposed to go to my first Munch: A casual meetup in a normal café where scene people just chat.
By Elena (36, Dominant) and Alex (39, submissive) – a couple from the BDSM scene who have been together for 12 years and live an intense Female-Led-Relationship (FLR). They have two children in elementary school age. To protect their privacy and that of their children, they appear here anonymously with pseudonyms. In this open conversation, they report on how they reconcile their kinky dynamic with family everyday life, what challenges there are, and what they advise other scene parents.
By Lena (34) and Dom Tom (40) – together for nine years, in a committed D/s relationship for seven. We have a large circle of friends: colleagues, old schoolmates, family friends – most of them purely "vanilla." Some know, most don't. In this post, we share our experiences on how we handle curious questions, when we're open and when not, and above all: practical strategies that help us stay relaxed.
By Mia (32) and Sir Daniel (38) – a couple together for eight years and living an intense D/s relationship for five. We love traveling: city trips, beach vacations, road trips – and everywhere we take our kinky side. In this post, we share our best tricks for transporting toys and such discreetly, which hotels are suitable, and of course a few embarrassingly funny anecdotes that still make us laugh.
We've been together for six years, and for four years we've been living a conscious 24/7 D/s relationship. That doesn't mean we walk around the apartment all day in leather and with a whip – quite the opposite. For us, the dynamic is an invisible but always palpable network of rules, rituals, and responsibility that permeates our entire everyday life and makes it simultaneously simpler, more intense, and more fulfilling.
