Beyond the Shock: Rethinking Visibility in Kink and Sexual Wellness

In this episode, we dive into the complexities of representation and visibility within the overall Kinky Wellness communities, especially in the age of TikTok and social media. While the fight for marginalized voices to be heard is crucial, we explore how not all visibility is good visibility.
I discuss the dangers of sensationalized narratives and the growing trend of pushing extreme, often self-sabotaging portrayals of kink as the "norm." From over-the-top performances to bizarre extremes, I ask the hard question: Is this really the message we want to send about kink and sexual wellness?
Join me as I challenge the narratives that dominate the conversation and advocate for a more inclusive, mature, healthy, and nuanced perspective on sexual exploration and identity that doesn’t rely on shock value.
