A proposito di questo titolo

The Kink Perspective looks at BDSM through psychology, not performance. It’s an honest examination of power, connection, and what really shapes relationships inside kink, without romanticizing dysfunction or avoiding hard truths.


Hosted by Chris C, trauma-focused psychotherapist with more than two decades of lifestyle experience.

  • Season 5 Episode 6 - Why We Go Back...
    Feb 17 2026

    On today’s show, I discuss why we return to familiar relationship and power exchange dynamics even when we know the cost. We look at the difference between insight and wiring, how intensity can be mistaken for connection, and why calm can feel wrong if your nervous system was trained on unpredictability. I break down the stories we tell ourselves to justify going back, what actually interrupts a pattern, and why the discomfort that follows change does not mean you chose wrong.

  • Season 5 Episode 5 - Being Single in the Lifestyle...
    Feb 9 2026

    On today’s show, I discuss what being single reveals in the lifestyle, and why it’s often less about preference than about capacity. This episode continues the journal entry Strong Enough to Stay Single and looks at how structure, intensity, and roles can quietly become substitutes for regulation. I explore what actually breaks connection when curiosity and listening fall away. No advice, no villains, just recognition.

  • Season 5 Episode 4 - Taking Your Kink Public...
    Feb 3 2026

    On today’s show, I discuss where kink ends and public responsibility begins. This isn’t about shaming desire or policing bodies, it’s about consent, context, and containment. We look at why private dynamics don’t automatically translate to public spaces, why intent isn’t enough, and how public settings change the ethics. I also explore the psychology behind being seen and why restraint isn’t repression. A grounded conversation about protecting consent, credibility, and the community as a whole.
