Content of the BDSM Checklist
Here’s a brief explanation for each of the 14 topics I’ve covered in the BDSM Checklist:
- Bondage and Suspension: This refers to the act of restraining or binding someone, often using tools such as ropes, cuffs, or chains. Suspension involves elevating the bound person off the ground.
- Impact/Percussion: Engaging in activities where one partner strikes another, typically for the mutual pleasure of both. This can involve tools like whips, paddles, or hands.
- Sexual Activity: A broad category covering various sexual acts, from oral and penetrative intercourse to the use of toys and other objects.
- Sensation Play: Activities focused on stimulating the senses, often through unique sensations like cold (ice cubes), heat (wax), or electricity.
- Breath Play: A form of play where one partner controls the other’s breathing, often increasing arousal but also considered high-risk.
- Humiliation: Engaging in acts or verbal exchanges designed to embarrass or degrade, often in a roleplay scenario.
- Body Part Torture: Typically involving the focused application of pain or discomfort to specific body parts, such as the genitals or nipples.
- Body Modifications: Physical alterations to the body, like piercings, tattoos, or even more extreme modifications such as branding.
- Fetishes: Specific objects, materials, or scenarios that are particularly erotic to an individual, e.g., feet, latex, or chastity devices.
- Roleplaying: Engaging in scenarios where partners take on distinct roles, like teacher-student, doctor-patient, or dominant-submissive.
- Service and Restrictive Behaviour: Acts of service (like massaging or cleaning) or adhering to strict behavioral rules set by a dominant partner.
- Voyeurism/Exhibitionism: Getting aroused by watching others engage in sexual activity (voyeurism) or being watched (exhibitionism).
- Bodily Fluids and Functions: Engaging in activities that involve bodily excretions, such as urine, semen, or blood.
- Power Dynamics and Relationships: The psychological and relational aspects of BDSM, where individuals take on roles of varying power, like dominant/submissive or master/slave.
