Couldnāt agree more! Itās all about learning, personal growth, and Iām an experiential person, so I get excited for new ideas.Ok, let's talk about "weird" kinks
I love finding people who have similar kinks to mine but from different reasonings or perspectives. I also love finding out why people like things I just have never gotten into.
This has already been a fascinating area of change for me. For MLT and me, we had many kinks that we were initially indifferent to, but as we grow together and explore together, we have both found ourselves actually wanting to explore kinks that neither of us cared for, but only because we each have a natural sense of curiosity, we have total trust in each other, and itās not that weāre trying to āout-kinkā the other, but weāre both letting our āfreak flagā fly high and proud and we have a lot of fun in those moments of exploration. It doesnāt mean everything is going to be a hit or something we want to try again, but there are already a couple that we both went, āoh, NOW I see the appeal.āI also find it super interesting when partners start to get into new kinks simply because of how much it turns their partner on.
I donāt know, maybe itās my past speaking, but I donāt want to explore alone if I have a partner as trustworthy and accepting as I do with MLT. The previous partner (that still feels a little weird to put out there) that I spent probably 95% of my sexual history with was nothing like MLT, so any exploring I did was on my own, but it also had to be in secret, because the level of judgement and shame is stifling.
I feel like sex is a constant journey where one should have fun exploring, both alone and with others. You never know where your sexual revelations will come from.
For the first time in my life, Iām sharing possibilities and fantasies with someone that I donāt feel shame from. At the very first, I felt a little tinge of blushing, but not now. However, do I want to necessarily tell all of Lit? No, not really. Iām not ashamed, but I also donāt want judgement.There's a lot of the "usual" stuff. So, what do I mean when I say "weird" kinks? The ones that make you blush or think twice about sharing (nothing that breaks Lit rules or legal ones). The ones that you maybe only explore in secret or with a trusted partner.
Do tell, what are YOUR weird kinks?
No one has to share, to be very clear. Or, maybe you want to only talk about what is "normal" kinky versus "weird" kinky. What is it that drew people to wanting this topic? Or maybe y'all just wanted to know all of my weird stuff![]()
I hope this topic gets wild and spicy ā I enjoy these sorts of discussions!So, let's start here. How do we find the line between "normal" and "weird" when it comes to kinks? Or, did I already define it, and it is person-dependent?
Iāll start off with how I attempt to define kinky and then normal kinky vs. weird kinky. Disclaimer, I only think a kink is weird if it violates someoneās autonomy, it removes the capacity for consent, and if it is an act that has no regard for one of the participants. That said, Iāll use weird kinky to describe anything that is ethically āin-boundsā with the preceding caveat.
To define kinky, I start off by asking myself, āWould this be a sexual act that a deacon or elder of a moderately conservative church admit to engaging in?ā I come from a fairly conservative region with some cultural pockets of incredibly conservative-almost-fundamentalist enclaves of people. There are some people who would go so far as to say oral sex or doggy-style is āwild.ā Iām not going that far. Even in most socially conservative circles, fellatio, cunnilingus, a variety of sexual positions, and possibly the use of fairly innocuous and ābeginnerā sex toys would be perfectly acceptable (if youāre married, of course :eyeroll: ). So what is kinky? Anything that goes beyond the italicized activities mentioned.
So, what is ānormalā kinky vs. āweirdā kinky? I think this is a culturally dependent term and itās a moving baseline as humans change over the eras. I think weird kinky, if defined in the 1960s, would be sex in a room with other people present, perhaps anal sex? I donāt really know, my parents were children in the 1960s. Whatās weird kinky now? I think thatās a little easier to define because weāre currently in the present and we know how people would react to something we would tell them. I think itās important to remember that Lit is an area where the sexually open-minded (mostlyā¦) congregate and anyone who is an active participant here is not likely to represent the general publicās sexual proclivities. Litizens will likely be kinkier, more sexually driven, and open-minded than the general population.
To me, weird kinky would be defined in a few ways:
1. I feel slightly (or more) bashful saying putting it on Lit that Iām admitting itās something I want or do.
2. Itās something most ānormalā people had never heard of.
3. I had to look it up, research it, had to educate myself on how to do it safely.
I wish Lit was better about making polls usable, but in my typical nerd/data-driven way⦠https://strawpoll.com/GPgVYr3EEna
