The View From Outside

What does BDSM look like to someone who's never experienced it? Leather, whips, dungeons, pain and people doing things that seem completely incomprehensible from the outside? But how much of that picture reflects reality, and how much comes from stereotypes, sensationalism and misunderstanding? In this episode of The Kink Compass, we explore how the outside world sees BDSM, why those perceptions exist, and what gets lost when people are reduced to their kinks. Because there's always more to a person than what you see from the outside.
