"I love how free Latex makes me feel" – interview with Trisha Rubber Doll

On BDSM as an escape

From the bottom of my heart and my work-related burnout, here's an essay on using BDSM as an escape – and whether his idea is even ethical, relevant or hot. Also: post-digital identity fatigue, filth as mindfulness and the meditative joys of having your fingers down someone's throat. Thank you for your support, now more...

TW: Bruises (and their many meanings in the BDSM community)

Did you ask to see my bruised ass? I guess not - but at least I put a TW on it. That's the interesting thing with bruises – they're a large part of what we go through and what we love in BDSM, they're always intimate but not always pretty or appreciated. They're part of the story of what we share with others and what we...

Does life change after you get into a latex catsuit once?

Other Kinds of Pleasures post Does life change after you get into a latex catsuit once?  from patreon

It does. 

Hard to explain but somehow everything else you wear, touch and desire feels a little bit different once you know that this experience is available to you, stored away in a box and out of light. Fetish is an alternative technology for perception, after all. 

Thank you for your support as al...

On finding my top space as a femme

In this essay, I ask the question what is erotic dominance made of, especially if you're femme – and probably fail to find a concrete enough answer. It feels like there isn't much written about that part of BDSM, or even that headspace, and it makes me wonder what kind of specific shame we attach to that.

"A long warm intimate embrace" – Steffele on latex fetish

Other Kinds of Pleasures post "A long warm intimate embrace" – Steffele on latex fetish  from patreon

The other day I was in a shower, carefully washing a latex dress with unperfumed soap when I thought, well, I could not envisage doing this six months ago. I got into latex, like many people in BDSM, through looking at images that felt like they reflect my sexuality – and through seeking an appropriate outfit for k...

Other Kinds of Pleasures post On kink identity and fetishising being "normal" from patreon

The latest essay in on the idea of "normal" and the surprising erotic excitement which comes with it, on kinksters with double lives, on outsider identities and why we have to still resist stigma even if being deviant is part of the fun. Kim Kardashian in a Balenciaga nylon catsuit doesn't have much to do with it – apar...

The chaos and order of play parties

In 2021, going to kink parties feels not just too good to be true, but kind of utopian. Imagine. The room is full of people. You can come up to someone and talk to them up close. You can make out with strangers. Cruising happens so fast it's like something out of queer fairy tales of the last century which I never dreamed of ...

On erotic pain as a high and a history book

I am a masochist. I am also a person with a history of chronic pain. I tried to find the connection between these two things, and also wrote about pain highs, the body which (naturally) keeps the score, and the tremendous power which comes from being on a receiving end of consensual pain.

As a fashion writer, I have always been interested  in the nature of consumerist desire – and how this kind of desire is different from the one we associate with fetish clothing. I wrote about this distinction, latex gloves, Cottweiler, and fetish as an alternative technology for perception. Enjoy and thank you for...

The joys of vintage fetish advertising

Other Kinds of Pleasures post The joys of vintage fetish advertising  from patreon

I love vintage fetish advertising. 

Part of its allure is that aspirational glamorous cold but sexy quality which fashion photography had in the 1990s. The hard eroticism of the body, or even different body parts in these images does so well for selling leather or latex, not to mention that rich texture of black an...

On water and finding a new language for BDSM

This is one of the first essays I have ever written about BDSM – on the beauty of losing control but being in control, on breath play and closeness, and on language. I write because I fall in love with experiences and I want to keep them forever. With sex, you can’t quite do that – the joy of it is partly in being b...

Could write about enacting your erotic self in your living space after shifting furniture around – because in reality not so many of us do so in the dungeons or even parties anymore. But can also just say I had so much fun shooting these with Anya Gorkova. 

Lots of love,
