This one is real talk about parenting, boundaries, and keeping your kink alive when your life is anything but quiet
So… you’re kinky and you have kids? Welcome to the club.
In this episode, I’m diving into something that every kink-positive parent wrestles with at some point:
"How do you stay connected to your identity—and your dominance—when the kids are home, the bedroom has no door, and your sex life feels like it’s on permanent hold?"
I pulled from a couple of excellent articles (linked below) and shared how I’ve navigated being a Domme, a mother, and a woman with a wild, creative, and very adult job. This one’s a little raw, a little funny, and hopefully a whole lot helpful.
What I Talk Through:
- My own challenges with maintaining a kinky dynamic in a house full of people
- The exact conversation I had with my daughter about setting boundaries and owning her pleasure
- How I balance sex positivity with age-appropriate parenting
- The time a toddler brought a butt plug into the living room 😳
- Creative ways to store toys when space (and privacy) are limited
- My thoughts on nudity, shame, and breaking generational trauma around body image
- Being honest (but not explicit) with your kids when they ask questions
- Using what’s in your kitchen drawer as your next spanking tool 🔪🥄💥
“Just because you had kids doesn’t mean your kink card expires. It just means you need a lockbox, a little creativity, and a hell of a lot of communication.”“We don’t need to tell our kids everything—but hiding from who we are? That’s where we lose ourselves.
Discussion Prompts:
- How do you navigate being kinky and being a parent?
- Have your kids ever stumbled on a toy or overheard something… spicy?
- What boundaries do you hold around your identity as a Dominant partner and a parent?

WEBVTT
00:00:00.010 --> 00:00:02.930
Let's look at people for people and not if they have a penis or a pussy.
00:00:03.350 --> 00:00:04.089
How about that?
00:00:08.390 --> 00:00:11.789
This podcast is intended for mature audiences only.
00:00:12.189 --> 00:00:19.870
If you're not 18 years of age or older, there are thousands of other podcasts you can listen to and you can come back and visit us when you are 18.
00:00:20.510 --> 00:00:22.710
This podcast is meant solely for entertainment.
00:00:23.190 --> 00:00:26.050
We are not licensed doctors, lawyers, or therapists.
00:00:26.629 --> 00:00:32.350
We simply have a fascination with the lifestyle and I'd love to share it with you and get your thoughts and opinions.
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:46.119
Welcome back.
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:48.920
Episode 48, I believe.
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:52.539
I'm not quite sure what today's episode is going to be like.
00:00:52.579 --> 00:00:54.240
We're going to kind of fly by the seat of our pants.
00:00:54.420 --> 00:01:01.119
I think we're going to talk about different things at home that you can implement for spanking.
00:01:01.659 --> 00:01:10.299
As well as if you don't choose to use things that you have at home, how you can keep them safe if you have kids in your home.
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:13.359
It's going to be kind of a hodgepodge of things, I think.
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:15.620
Anyway, stick around.
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:16.700
Should be a fun ride.
00:01:17.859 --> 00:01:20.000
Let's address some housekeeping.
00:01:32.209 --> 00:01:33.709
Well, I shouldn't complain.
00:01:33.950 --> 00:01:44.269
I'm at camp by myself again because my ex decided not to take my youngest this weekend, which, whatever, he's at home with my subbie.
00:01:44.469 --> 00:01:47.849
And I am up here flying solo, doing massage, and now the podcast.
00:01:48.450 --> 00:01:52.629
So I can't really complain because it's been pretty quiet here the last couple days.
00:01:53.329 --> 00:01:56.250
Other than a hell of a storm that came through last night.
00:01:56.430 --> 00:01:57.109
Holy shit.
00:01:58.030 --> 00:02:01.269
Well, my subbie's been at home taking care of the youngest.
00:02:01.650 --> 00:02:04.849
He is also working on his first audiobook.
00:02:05.489 --> 00:02:07.329
That he will be submitting.
00:02:07.650 --> 00:02:08.750
I love that word.
00:02:10.509 --> 00:02:11.090
To Audible.
00:02:11.650 --> 00:02:14.210
It is an erotic book.
00:02:14.490 --> 00:02:17.750
And he said it is really, really good.
00:02:17.889 --> 00:02:19.830
So I'm excited to give it a listen.
00:02:20.210 --> 00:02:25.930
When I have more information about a title or anything, if any of you are interested in listening to it, I will get that information.
00:02:27.210 --> 00:02:30.250
I don't know how long Audible is taking to publish things.
00:02:30.330 --> 00:02:34.189
I know for a while there they were way, way behind.
00:02:34.189 --> 00:02:37.849
They were short-staffed and a lot of people were doing ACX Audible stuff.
00:02:37.949 --> 00:02:40.590
And it just took them a while to get things out.
00:02:42.349 --> 00:02:43.729
Enough of that rambling.
00:02:45.490 --> 00:02:53.270
Okay, last week we kind of talked about spanking and the benefits and things like that.
00:02:53.590 --> 00:02:56.370
Side note, I really tried to attack my email this week.
00:02:56.430 --> 00:03:03.889
So if you sent me an email and you did not get a response, send me an email again and say, I sent you an email on this day.
00:03:03.969 --> 00:03:04.830
Can you respond?
00:03:06.370 --> 00:03:17.530
First, I found two or three different articles on having a kinky lifestyle after you have had children or have children in the house.
00:03:17.770 --> 00:03:20.210
The first paragraph, so I found this article on Vice.
00:03:21.189 --> 00:03:23.650
It says how to stay kinky after you've had kids.
00:03:24.550 --> 00:03:26.150
And I like the first line.
00:03:26.270 --> 00:03:28.810
Just because you have kids doesn't mean kink is over.
00:03:29.629 --> 00:03:33.030
You may have to slow down for a minute, but you're not going to forget it.
00:03:33.210 --> 00:03:40.650
Sometimes all you need is a little inconspicuous black luggage to hide things.
00:03:41.949 --> 00:03:44.610
Having children changes your life, plain and simple.
00:03:44.810 --> 00:03:51.669
The newfound responsibility for caring for an infant will bleed into all aspects of your existence, from your career and social life to your home and personal life.
00:03:51.930 --> 00:03:58.430
It probably goes without saying that your sex life will be affected as your sleep schedule is affected during your first few years of parenting.
00:03:58.810 --> 00:04:03.370
As they grow older, you'll hopefully regain some semblance of your former lifestyle.
00:04:03.909 --> 00:04:09.849
But what if aspects of your identity are at odds with what people tend to consider a child-friendly environment?
00:04:10.469 --> 00:04:20.949
For a parent to embrace kink and consider BDSM a core aspect of their identity and sexuality, how far should you go, if at all, to hide your adult interests from your mini-yous?
00:04:22.550 --> 00:04:39.009
Now, I know we've had this discussion or I've done an episode on a discussion that I had with my daughter, because I don't remember if she heard me call my husband my subbie or what it was, but she kind of asked a few questions.
00:04:39.509 --> 00:04:43.790
I answered as best I could without getting really in detail.
00:04:44.350 --> 00:04:46.970
Obviously, I don't want her to know his penis is in a cage.
00:04:47.050 --> 00:04:49.810
That seems a bit much for even an 18-year-old.
00:04:49.889 --> 00:04:51.629
And who wants to know that about their parents?
00:04:51.629 --> 00:05:06.250
However, I will say that my relationship with my daughter is fantastic in that if she has questions about sex or, well, for example, we just had a conversation the other day about her being okay with doing only what she wants.
00:05:06.370 --> 00:05:12.069
For example, say she's doing something with a guy and she feels bad because he doesn't get to finish.
00:05:13.129 --> 00:05:15.829
And I told her, listen, he doesn't have to.
00:05:16.110 --> 00:05:16.769
You're in charge.
00:05:16.850 --> 00:05:18.449
You're the one doing things to him.
00:05:18.790 --> 00:05:20.709
If you decide to stop, you decide to stop.
00:05:21.269 --> 00:05:22.610
Now, that's just an example.
00:05:22.829 --> 00:05:26.149
But I want her to understand that she is in control of the situation.
00:05:26.509 --> 00:05:30.990
And if she is ready to stop, whatever the case may be, then stop.
00:05:31.430 --> 00:05:41.610
I want her to be very good at setting boundaries for herself and knowing when she doesn't want to do something anymore that it's okay to say, I don't want to do this anymore.
00:05:41.689 --> 00:05:41.949
I'm done.
00:05:42.649 --> 00:05:46.430
And listen, if the guy gets blue balls, sorry about your luck.
00:05:46.889 --> 00:05:48.050
That's just how it goes.
00:05:48.689 --> 00:06:00.110
Like, I understand that sucks for guys, but anyway, I like the discussions that I've had with her, and it makes me happy to know that she is comfortable to come to me to ask me questions.
00:06:01.370 --> 00:06:03.629
Obviously, we're not talking about kink things.
00:06:03.709 --> 00:06:10.850
This is pretty vanilla sex things that she's asking me, and I'm not 100% sure that she's sexually active.
00:06:12.089 --> 00:06:13.569
We have had the discussion.
00:06:13.970 --> 00:06:15.350
We have taken precautions.
00:06:15.610 --> 00:06:16.310
She's prepared.
00:06:16.870 --> 00:06:22.930
I believe she's had sex in the past with one person, but I don't know where she's at right now with it.
00:06:22.949 --> 00:06:26.670
I just let her ask the questions, and if she wants to tell me more, then she can tell me more.
00:06:28.449 --> 00:06:36.589
So also, as a part of this article, it says sex toys are for consenting adults, and oh, consenting adults.
00:06:36.870 --> 00:06:41.089
That doesn't need to be around kids, kinky stuff or non-kinky stuff.
00:06:41.110 --> 00:06:45.449
It doesn't matter, says New York City-based kink-friendly therapist.
00:06:46.310 --> 00:06:49.610
And I cannot pronounce her name, so if you want to see what it is, you'll have to read the article.
00:06:51.009 --> 00:06:57.709
Parents who embrace sex-positive kinky relationships may create a more open and healthy environment for children to grow up in.
00:06:58.189 --> 00:07:12.490
BDSM requires a certain level of openness and honesty, and practicing that behavior could even help parents teach their children about the importance of topics such as consent or keeping an open mind to non-normative taste and not being ashamed of what you're into.
00:07:12.490 --> 00:07:27.949
Not that kids need to be privy to the specifics of what you're negotiating or consenting to, but the kind of relationship that kinky parents might have could be a good model of communication and setting boundaries, says the same therapist.
00:07:28.709 --> 00:07:30.069
I think that's very true.
00:07:30.209 --> 00:07:38.009
I think that my kids feel much more comfortable asking me things than I would have ever felt asking my mom or my dad.
00:07:38.069 --> 00:07:40.870
Well, I would never ask my dad, but asking my mom.
00:07:42.490 --> 00:07:47.709
I do think that my children witness how my husband treats me.
00:07:48.750 --> 00:08:00.470
They maybe don't understand that it's part of the relationship dynamic that we have, but they see how I'm treated and how he does everything he can to support me, encourage me, make my life easier.
00:08:01.209 --> 00:08:05.529
And for my daughter especially, I hope that she learns that she deserves that.
00:08:05.750 --> 00:08:20.029
Whether it's an FLR or not, she deserves a man who will fall all over himself to make her life a little bit easier and make her happy, whether it's a lifestyle dynamic or just a plain vanilla relationship, which I hate the word vanilla.
00:08:20.970 --> 00:08:24.449
And I think this also applies to more than just BDSM relationships.
00:08:24.509 --> 00:08:30.290
I think that's just the topic of this article specifically, but I think it applies to all kink relationships.
00:08:31.129 --> 00:08:34.110
You know, your kids are always watching whether you realize it or not.
00:08:34.629 --> 00:08:38.210
And sometimes I forget, and my youngest is like a fucking sponge.
00:08:38.428 --> 00:08:40.190
He takes everything in.
00:08:40.190 --> 00:08:52.509
So the type of relationship or just the openness in how you communicate with your spouse, I think the kids pick up on that, and then that's what they look for in a relationship.
00:08:52.929 --> 00:08:55.429
And communication is always a good thing in a relationship.
00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:03.960
So this author, the reporter, whoever did this article, spoke to several people.
00:09:04.220 --> 00:09:12.580
I'm not going to read through all of them, but this first person is James from Wisconsin, 31 years old.
00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:15.480
He has two kids aged two and seven months old.
00:09:15.820 --> 00:09:20.220
They ask him to tell them a little bit about himself and his sexuality and things like that.
00:09:20.299 --> 00:09:23.279
He says, I identify as straight, but truthfully, I'm heteroflexible.
00:09:23.620 --> 00:09:27.379
I like people who are feminine with little regard to what genitals they have.
00:09:27.779 --> 00:09:38.759
I'm a dominant male with some sadistic undertones, but I spend 99 percent of my time as just a vanilla dad and husband, which with kids that young, I totally get that.
00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:47.299
I do like his comment about enjoying interacting with people who have little regard for what genitals they have.
00:09:47.860 --> 00:09:56.259
I think there is so much stigma attached to everything gender-related lately, and everybody is so on edge or whatever.
00:09:56.820 --> 00:10:03.980
Like, could we just take away your sexual body parts and, like, look at the person for a human being?
00:10:06.309 --> 00:10:07.129
I don't know.
00:10:07.549 --> 00:10:08.470
Just my opinion.
00:10:09.909 --> 00:10:11.029
I say that a lot.
00:10:11.350 --> 00:10:12.269
Just my opinion.
00:10:13.789 --> 00:10:16.370
Let's look at people for people and not if they have a penis or a pussy.
00:10:17.009 --> 00:10:17.570
How about that?
00:10:18.450 --> 00:10:33.730
So their two-year-old found a butt plug of his mom's, and they had a vanilla friend over, and the two-year-old brought the butt plug out and showed the friend, which it goes on later to say that the friend was maybe interested in giving the butt plug a try.
00:10:33.830 --> 00:10:37.330
Not specifically that one, but something maybe they wanted to try in their relationship.
00:10:37.330 --> 00:10:45.690
But the way they handled it is they just said, you know, that's mommy's toy, and the toddler gave it right back, and no more thought to it.
00:10:46.129 --> 00:10:58.529
He also goes on to talk about, you know, they participate in some BDSM play where maybe it leaves marks on the mom's body, and he does mention in here, too, that they walk around naked a lot in front of their kids.
00:10:59.190 --> 00:11:15.809
And he does say that they intend to not do that as much when the kids get into school but sometimes the toddler will see marks on the mom's body from different play scenes or whatever and just say, the wife says, mommy's owie, and they move on from it.
00:11:16.830 --> 00:11:22.009
I'm curious, though, on what people's thoughts are about being nude in front of your kids.
00:11:22.590 --> 00:11:32.370
I don't have a preference one way or—I mean, obviously, I go to a clothing optional campground, and my two older kids know that that's where I'm at.
00:11:33.009 --> 00:11:33.990
But I would be curious.
00:11:34.129 --> 00:11:36.129
I was never naked around my kids.
00:11:36.269 --> 00:11:51.070
I think when they were babies, I maybe took showers with them or, you know, held them while I took a shower or whatever, but I think that I was so pre-programmed from growing up that, like, being naked is bad.
00:11:51.730 --> 00:11:57.210
There's so much attached to the human body and how somebody looks and so much judgment.
00:11:58.129 --> 00:12:05.230
Like, imagine what the world would be if we could all just see people for people and not what they look like.
00:12:05.350 --> 00:12:09.389
Like, personality, just human characteristics.
00:12:10.370 --> 00:12:10.909
I don't know.
00:12:11.009 --> 00:12:16.149
I think being naked around your kids when they're young like that can kind of make them see that it's not necessarily bad.
00:12:16.409 --> 00:12:24.409
Like, my 18-year-old daughter, for the longest time, was changing in her damn closet in her bedroom with the door closed.
00:12:24.409 --> 00:12:29.289
So, like, her room was empty, and she would still change inside of her closet that had a door.
00:12:30.409 --> 00:12:34.450
She was real uncomfortable being naked, and I don't know if that was because she was uncomfortable with her body.
00:12:34.529 --> 00:12:37.669
If something happened, she's never told me that anything happened.
00:12:37.850 --> 00:12:43.610
I think she would if something had, but she has really come around.
00:12:43.769 --> 00:12:47.090
I mean, now she walks around the house in a sports bra and whatever.
00:12:47.230 --> 00:12:52.710
I mean, she's much more comfortable in her own skin, so maybe that's just her growing up a little bit.
00:12:52.710 --> 00:12:58.210
Maybe it has something to do with me going to a clothing-optional campground, and, you know, she will ask me if I get naked.
00:12:58.629 --> 00:13:07.049
I just tell her I get topless, but I like that she's more comfortable in her own skin and is kind of coming out of her shell.
00:13:07.169 --> 00:13:11.389
She should be proud of herself and her body, and she should love it.
00:13:11.470 --> 00:13:12.429
You only get one.
00:13:12.570 --> 00:13:13.350
Take care of it.
00:13:14.409 --> 00:13:16.309
I shouldn't practice what I preach.
00:13:17.870 --> 00:13:22.929
There is another person that they interview from Texas, 45 years old.
00:13:23.429 --> 00:13:28.710
13, 16, 19, and 21 are their kids' age.
00:13:29.549 --> 00:13:33.049
One of the questions was, do you have to worry about keeping sex toys hidden from your kids?
00:13:33.789 --> 00:13:36.049
Now, these are older kids, so this is interesting.
00:13:37.029 --> 00:13:43.409
We are into spanking, but with belts and stuff that is part of our household, which is another topic I want to touch on.
00:13:43.809 --> 00:13:51.789
Different household items you can use to spank your submissive, or maybe you want your submissive to spank you, whatever your dynamic is.
00:13:52.350 --> 00:13:54.350
She says, I don't wear a collar, never have.
00:13:54.389 --> 00:13:55.690
I have hair down to my waist.
00:13:55.830 --> 00:13:57.110
My husband doesn't need a leash.
00:13:57.190 --> 00:13:58.230
My hair is my leash.
00:13:58.710 --> 00:14:03.909
I have a toy chest that's filled with silk restraints, blindfolds, candles, and other BDSM toys.
00:14:04.529 --> 00:14:07.929
Our kids have always been aware for a long time that mom and dad have a sex life.
00:14:08.190 --> 00:14:10.870
I always wanted my kids to see a good physical relationship.
00:14:11.330 --> 00:14:13.409
That's something we don't hide from our children.
00:14:14.269 --> 00:14:17.690
You get a sense they are slightly embarrassed, but like it too.
00:14:18.110 --> 00:14:24.230
You have families who are in crisis, and to my kids, I'm like, this is for you too, so you can see everything is OK.
00:14:24.710 --> 00:14:27.929
I think our openness with our children really developed from that.
00:14:28.309 --> 00:14:32.710
I'm the crazy mom that goes out and buys my 16-year-old condoms, cock rings, and lube.
00:14:32.990 --> 00:14:37.769
If they're going to explore this, I want them to do it safely with some foresight to what they're doing.
00:14:38.429 --> 00:14:39.750
I think that's fantastic.
00:14:39.750 --> 00:14:46.490
It makes me a little cringy because I think the pre-programming comes into play again.
00:14:46.629 --> 00:14:49.950
Like part of my mind goes, that's not OK.
00:14:50.190 --> 00:14:51.490
But why isn't that OK?
00:14:52.149 --> 00:14:56.750
What makes that not OK if you're educating your children so that they can be safe in the things that they're doing?
00:14:56.870 --> 00:15:01.750
What happens if they go ask a friend and that friend doesn't know what the fuck they're doing and somebody gets hurt?
00:15:02.909 --> 00:15:08.190
Like there was an article, I don't remember which one of these it was, but they had a choking kink.
00:15:08.190 --> 00:15:12.210
And I mean, that can be really dangerous.
00:15:12.549 --> 00:15:18.190
And I really don't feel like kids under 18 should really be doing any type of kink like that.
00:15:18.309 --> 00:15:21.870
But kids that are under 18 are doing things they shouldn't be doing all the time.
00:15:22.049 --> 00:15:32.049
And I just feel like having an educated person doing things like that is probably better than just saying, oh, go ask your friend or watch a YouTube video.
00:15:32.590 --> 00:15:36.870
I think the more educated the younger generation can be about different kinks.
00:15:36.870 --> 00:15:50.370
And who knows, what's that going to be like in the future with parents or people in general just being more open about their kinks and what they're into and there being more discussions about it?
00:15:50.470 --> 00:15:51.529
Will this be more normalized?
00:15:51.809 --> 00:15:53.129
I mean, that would be really fucking nice.
00:15:53.250 --> 00:16:03.690
I mean, it's not like you have to see TV commercials for strap-ons, but it would just be nice if there was a lot less kink shaming and people could just let people be what they want to be.
00:16:04.429 --> 00:16:09.750
This is Chris from New Jersey, 35 years old, two kids, 3 and 19 months.
00:16:10.149 --> 00:16:14.870
One of the questions was, what's your at-home kink setup like?
00:16:15.610 --> 00:16:18.809
And it says, we live in a 3-4 Victorian house.
00:16:18.909 --> 00:16:21.389
At the moment, all of our kink activities occur in our bedroom.
00:16:21.570 --> 00:16:26.509
We have a large plastic footlocker in our bedroom closet that we keep all of our toys in.
00:16:26.809 --> 00:16:31.029
I recently got over $200 in electrical E-STEM equipment, which has been a joy.
00:16:31.029 --> 00:16:35.690
I finally got an actual gag after all this time because I'm very noisy.
00:16:36.309 --> 00:16:42.929
I picked up a new hood and a pair of latex briefs with a built-in anal plug, a spreader bar, and a couple different whips.
00:16:43.409 --> 00:16:45.730
So that would be another point of interest.
00:16:45.830 --> 00:16:47.750
Like, we don't have a bedroom door.
00:16:48.129 --> 00:16:53.649
If you've listened to any of my podcasts, we're kind of in our family room because we have as many people crammed in our house as we possibly can.
00:16:54.529 --> 00:17:01.490
And we actually use a toolbox that has a padlock on it that we store under our bed.
00:17:01.929 --> 00:17:07.568
And we have a pretty big selection of things at our camper as well because I know they're safe here.
00:17:07.608 --> 00:17:08.470
There's no kids here.
00:17:09.068 --> 00:17:13.690
But we keep ours locked in a toolbox underneath our bed, or sometimes it goes in our closet.
00:17:14.730 --> 00:17:21.789
I don't know that really matters where it's placed, but there's no way for the kids to get into it unless they got a bolt cutter of some sort.
00:17:22.450 --> 00:17:24.890
Obviously, we would know they were in, and we would have a discussion.
00:17:26.150 --> 00:17:32.069
But I would be curious what if there's anybody out there listening that has kids, where do you store your toys?
00:17:32.829 --> 00:17:34.130
Or how do you store your toys?
00:17:34.230 --> 00:17:36.130
Or do your kids just stay the hell out of your room?
00:17:36.170 --> 00:17:37.970
And if they do, what the fuck is that like?
00:17:38.990 --> 00:17:41.269
Oh, this question is from the same person.
00:17:41.769 --> 00:17:45.529
Would you be open with them about your kinks if the kids asked?
00:17:45.970 --> 00:17:49.049
And the response was, Jesus, they're three and one and a half.
00:17:49.049 --> 00:17:54.109
In another 10 years, I'm going to have to have a conversation with them that's a little more serious.
00:17:54.650 --> 00:17:58.549
I hope to be as honest as I can without providing specific details.
00:18:01.059 --> 00:18:02.660
OK, so that article is from Vice.
00:18:02.859 --> 00:18:04.339
I will put that in my show notes.
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:08.880
There was another article that I found from medium.com.
00:18:09.240 --> 00:18:11.259
Do your kids need to know about your kink lifestyle?
00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:20.200
This one's interesting because the author of this article, her daughter found her on, I don't know if her daughter found her on Fat Life, but they had a discussion.
00:18:20.680 --> 00:18:29.660
So as the conversation happened easily and naturally enough, my adult child told me that they were on this kink site called Fat Life as they had an interest in kink.
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:31.480
Oh, shit, I thought.
00:18:32.099 --> 00:18:33.559
I knew this would happen one day.
00:18:33.660 --> 00:18:39.880
If I had found my way onto Fat Life, why wouldn't I think my child would not do that as well?
00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:44.000
I told her that I knew about the site and that I was an active member.
00:18:44.140 --> 00:18:46.480
Not only am I an active member, but I'm fairly visible.
00:18:47.019 --> 00:18:50.180
I've had people recognize me for my presence a couple of times already.
00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:53.859
If I didn't tell her myself, she could find out on her own.
00:18:54.940 --> 00:18:56.680
I'm not ashamed of my activity there.
00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:00.640
I started writing about sex on the site and have cultivated a good-sized following.
00:19:01.099 --> 00:19:09.799
I have taken and posted erotic self-portraits, and I have thoroughly enjoyed doing so, especially since it has enabled me to have a better body image.
00:19:10.299 --> 00:19:13.900
I have made some invaluable friends, and I have learned quite a lot.
00:19:14.099 --> 00:19:15.859
I have no reason to feel ashamed.
00:19:16.180 --> 00:19:18.759
I'm a sexual woman who also happens to be a parent.
00:19:19.099 --> 00:19:23.420
I really like that because I think it's a hard bridge for people to cross over.
00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:28.319
Once they've had kids, they feel like, just like the other article said, like, you can't be kinky because you have kids.
00:19:28.400 --> 00:19:29.299
That's not acceptable.
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:30.799
Why the fuck not?
00:19:31.380 --> 00:19:32.619
How do you think the kids got here?
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:34.799
I'm sure you were having some kinky sex.
00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:35.339
Didn't you?
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:38.660
That's what I mean by normalizing this.
00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:43.019
Like, obviously, I'm not going to sit down with my 12-year-old and tell him that I put my husband's dick in a cage.
00:19:44.140 --> 00:19:45.900
I mean, you have to have your boundaries.
00:19:46.200 --> 00:19:48.359
And listen, I'm not here to tell you how to parent your kids either.
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:50.660
So you do what's best for you.
00:19:50.819 --> 00:19:52.700
I'll do what I think is best for me.
00:19:53.019 --> 00:19:54.660
Parenting doesn't come with a fucking handbook.
00:19:54.779 --> 00:19:57.200
And God, some days I wish it did, because holy shit.
00:19:58.819 --> 00:20:00.440
I think you have to do what's best.
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:01.960
Nobody knows your kid better than you.
00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:04.940
So you decide what's best for your kid.
00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:09.920
I would choose not to tell my child about the male chastity part of it and tell me if he's older.
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:15.279
And even then, I don't know, I keep repeating that because I'm really on the fence.
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:18.180
But my kids know what I do for work.
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:20.079
My youngest just knows I do voiceover.
00:20:20.460 --> 00:20:22.480
My older two know I do erotic voiceover.
00:20:22.980 --> 00:20:28.900
I have had discussions with my oldest about if he finds me on TikTok, he probably does not want to watch what he sees on TikTok.
00:20:29.160 --> 00:20:30.779
He should probably just keep on scrolling.
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:37.140
My ex-husband likes to grill my daughter about whether I'm a swinger or not, which is none of his business.
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:45.420
But my daughter said to me the other day, she's like, doesn't it kind of gross you out that people are jerking off to your voice?
00:20:46.940 --> 00:20:47.720
Fuck no.
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:50.180
First of all, I think it's hot.
00:20:50.500 --> 00:20:53.059
Second of all, I'm making somebody happy.
00:20:54.500 --> 00:21:02.920
Even if it's just for a minute, maybe they've had a real shit week, month, whatever, and they order this voiceover from me and it brings them just that little bit of joy.
00:21:04.680 --> 00:21:06.000
I like to help people.
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:07.259
I like to make people happy.
00:21:08.299 --> 00:21:08.940
It's a win.
00:21:08.940 --> 00:21:13.819
I think just like the lifestyle things, it's all about changing your perspective on how you look at things.
00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:16.720
I'm not ashamed of what I do at all.
00:21:17.700 --> 00:21:24.839
And that has been a road for me because in the beginning, I was kind of shy about it and I didn't want to say much.
00:21:25.380 --> 00:21:25.819
Fuck that.
00:21:25.900 --> 00:21:26.700
Now I own it.
00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:31.240
And I say this all the time, but I have lost some friends because of this.
00:21:31.660 --> 00:21:42.059
If you didn't like, if you liked me before you found out what I did or what I'm doing now for work or whatever the case may be, but now all of a sudden you don't like me, that's your loss.
00:21:42.259 --> 00:21:43.519
I'm not a different person.
00:21:43.819 --> 00:21:45.440
I'm the same person I've always been.
00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:47.440
I just do something different for work.
00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:50.480
And it's not even really like work.
00:21:50.619 --> 00:21:52.539
Like, I fucking love doing voiceovers.
00:21:52.980 --> 00:21:57.640
I love being in that booth and recording, whether it's erotic or non-erotic.
00:21:58.359 --> 00:22:00.400
Maybe I'm conceited and like the sound of my own voice.
00:22:00.500 --> 00:22:02.299
Whatever it is, I enjoy it.
00:22:08.140 --> 00:22:14.400
So the other interesting part of this article that I liked was laying the groundwork for a sex-positive home.
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:23.059
My attitude towards the information that I impart to my children is shaped by an awareness of their age and their individual maturity.
00:22:23.539 --> 00:22:27.160
I also construct my answers to their questions on a need-to-know basis.
00:22:28.079 --> 00:22:31.299
It is a fairly wide-ranging and flexible policy.
00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:35.859
Nevertheless, over the years, I have found that it has provided me with immeasurable and helpful guidance.
00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:41.980
When my eight-year-old son asked me what sex was, I gave him the basics.
00:22:42.140 --> 00:22:43.240
Penis goes in the vagina.
00:22:43.460 --> 00:22:46.720
If the sperm fertilizes the egg, then a baby can be conceived.
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:50.700
After seeing a condom commercial, the same son asked what they were.
00:22:51.660 --> 00:22:54.680
I discussed birth control and sexually transmitted infections.
00:22:55.160 --> 00:23:00.819
We discussed HIV and AIDS, and it had recently been World AIDS Day, and his school discussed it vaguely.
00:23:01.640 --> 00:23:04.579
My daughter was about nine when she asked me what a period was.
00:23:04.839 --> 00:23:05.539
I explained.
00:23:05.779 --> 00:23:08.240
A few questions later, I was telling her about sex.
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:11.960
She asked me, so does that mean you and dad?
00:23:12.619 --> 00:23:14.440
I nodded my head, and she laughed.
00:23:15.859 --> 00:23:18.960
I never really had these discussions with my mom when I was younger.
00:23:19.059 --> 00:23:20.700
When I got my period, I was scared shitless.
00:23:20.779 --> 00:23:22.200
I didn't know what the fuck was going on.
00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:25.079
I don't ever want my kid to feel that way.
00:23:26.460 --> 00:23:32.500
That I said, I want my daughter to have all my kids to have the information about sex.
00:23:32.579 --> 00:23:34.980
Fuck, when I got my period, I didn't know what the fuck was going on.
00:23:34.980 --> 00:23:35.900
I was scared shitless.
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:36.460
I was 10.
00:23:36.460 --> 00:23:38.579
Nobody ever had those talks with me.
00:23:39.000 --> 00:23:46.339
I would rather have my kids informed and understand and ask me rather than their friends.
00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:51.220
It's important for kids to understand that parents are sexual beings too.
00:23:52.500 --> 00:23:55.579
Kids are coming into their sexuality at whatever age.
00:23:55.660 --> 00:23:56.460
Every kid is different.
00:23:57.039 --> 00:24:01.460
But for kids to think that their parents don't have sex is ridiculous.
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:10.500
And this is something I need to get over too, because I have a hard time when we do have sex, having sex because I'm so worried that the kids are going to walk in.
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:13.500
Well, I don't have a bedroom door.
00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:16.259
And you, I mean, listen, this is what adults do.
00:24:16.500 --> 00:24:23.960
And if you decide to walk in my room after bedtime and you see something you don't want to, I'm real sorry.
00:24:24.079 --> 00:24:30.180
But this is my house, and I'm an adult, and this is acceptable activity for adults.
00:24:32.859 --> 00:24:40.380
Anyway, there is a whole other article as well as how to stay kinky after having kids.
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:42.720
And I'll just kind of run through.
00:24:42.900 --> 00:24:49.299
This is from, I don't know, I'll have to, I'll try and link it in my show notes.
00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:51.819
It was posted in 2017.
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:54.579
So, I mean, I'm sure there's probably an updated article.
00:24:54.779 --> 00:24:58.140
But one of the things you can do is take threesomes elsewhere.
00:24:58.140 --> 00:25:03.319
You can ask the person that's the third or whatever that's participating, ask if they can host.
00:25:04.140 --> 00:25:05.400
Soundproof your bedroom walls.
00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:09.039
And that can be as simple as just doing a DIY headboard or something.
00:25:09.779 --> 00:25:12.519
Put your room and your kids' room as far apart as possible.
00:25:13.079 --> 00:25:16.640
I don't have that option, but for some people, you can put them on the other end of the house.
00:25:17.940 --> 00:25:19.460
Try an office rendezvous.
00:25:20.180 --> 00:25:22.079
I don't have an office, and neither does my husband.
00:25:22.180 --> 00:25:22.880
It'd be his truck.
00:25:23.019 --> 00:25:24.779
And we've done that, but it's a little dirty.
00:25:25.920 --> 00:25:26.559
Worth it, though.
00:25:29.059 --> 00:25:30.420
Uh, use code words.
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:31.220
This is fun.
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:40.059
If you can come up with different code words to mean things that only you and your husband, wife, whatever, your partner know, that would be kind of funny.
00:25:40.819 --> 00:25:42.359
My daughter does that with one of her friends.
00:25:42.460 --> 00:25:44.559
They have, they've made up like their own little language.
00:25:45.500 --> 00:25:47.460
So they'll sit and talk to each other in that language.
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:53.079
I can kind of understand it, but I don't understand all of it, which, fuck, I don't understand half the words she uses.
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:54.539
I'm old.
00:25:55.980 --> 00:25:57.839
Teach your kids to accept who they are.
00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:05.819
If you and your partner are kinky, then you should accept it, because if you don't accept who you are, your kids will sense it, and they won't accept who they are.
00:26:06.539 --> 00:26:16.380
Keeping up your kinky sex life can be a good way to keep an open mind and keep the importance of self-acceptance on the forefront of your brain so you can teach it to your children.
00:26:17.920 --> 00:26:18.799
Fucking fantastic.
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:22.299
I had to read that whole one because I think that's so important.
00:26:23.500 --> 00:26:24.599
Let's see what else is there.
00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:26.519
Play the stranger's game.
00:26:26.660 --> 00:26:31.480
Meet at a hotel lobby bar wearing disguises and pretend to be entirely new people meeting for the first time.
00:26:31.819 --> 00:26:35.160
Pack a suitcase of nothing but just your sex toys and get a room.
00:26:35.380 --> 00:26:39.380
This also gives your partner a much-needed one-on-one time after you've had kids.
00:26:40.539 --> 00:26:41.380
We've done that before.
00:26:41.500 --> 00:26:43.599
Not played the stranger game, but met at a hotel room.
00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:48.000
Don't feel pressured to answer every question your child has.
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:53.980
If your child accidentally finds one of your sex toys, you can simply tell him, that's one of my private items, and take it away.
00:26:53.980 --> 00:26:57.880
He isn't entitled to every piece of information about your life.
00:26:58.140 --> 00:27:03.019
You already had the fact that the tooth fairy is fake, so why not tell a little lie about your anal beads?
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:07.019
Keep food and sex food separate.
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:08.259
And I saw this.
00:27:08.779 --> 00:27:16.180
I want to do an episode on food play, mainly because I'm curious on what people do with food during sex.
00:27:16.720 --> 00:27:17.700
I might be interested in that.
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:19.200
I like food and I like sex.
00:27:19.920 --> 00:27:21.559
Use items you already have.
00:27:22.099 --> 00:27:27.859
So if you don't want to have toys around your house, this is where we're going to talk about the different things around your house that you can implement.
00:27:28.079 --> 00:27:30.119
It's going to be real fast, just at the end.
00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:32.579
Get into muffles and gags.
00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:33.720
I hate gags.
00:27:34.220 --> 00:27:35.599
Just a little PSA about me.
00:27:36.099 --> 00:27:37.059
They freak me out.
00:27:37.220 --> 00:27:37.799
I don't know why.
00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:39.019
I just do not like them.
00:27:39.900 --> 00:27:41.519
Play the don't make a sound game.
00:27:42.539 --> 00:27:46.700
If you like a challenge, you can forego the gags and play the don't make a sound game.
00:27:46.700 --> 00:27:50.200
You challenge each other to be as quiet as possible during sex.
00:27:50.420 --> 00:27:55.200
The whole thing takes on an air of secrecy that's really sexy.
00:27:57.880 --> 00:27:58.940
Noise proof your bed.
00:28:00.180 --> 00:28:02.119
And give your kids white noise machines.
00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:06.299
My youngest does have, it's like a Rainmaker sound thing in his room.
00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:09.299
Okay, I need to wrap this up.
00:28:09.720 --> 00:28:14.619
I had a discussion with the neighbors who fucking hopefully will be on the podcast next week.
00:28:14.619 --> 00:28:19.400
I have been assured that my youngest is going to be at his dad's next weekend.
00:28:19.619 --> 00:28:22.400
And I would really like my subbie to be on the episode with the neighbors.
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:26.539
So that has been the issue is the last two to three weeks.
00:28:26.539 --> 00:28:28.019
I have been at camp by myself.
00:28:28.420 --> 00:28:32.279
And he isn't able to come up even just long enough to do the podcast.
00:28:32.660 --> 00:28:36.940
So next week, I'm hoping to have our neighbors on for real.
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:42.299
But I was having a discussion with them this morning on their deaf was having a morning cigarette.
00:28:42.299 --> 00:28:49.920
And we were just talking about different items around the house that you could use for spanking implements.
00:28:50.839 --> 00:28:53.539
And one of the first things that came up was a frying pan.
00:28:54.660 --> 00:28:56.559
I would say be very careful.
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:59.980
I mean, obviously, you're all adults, you know how to be safe.
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:03.059
But fucking hell, a frying pan could do some damage, you would think.
00:29:03.700 --> 00:29:08.259
But belts, fly swatters, metal hangers, plastic hangers.
00:29:08.819 --> 00:29:10.900
What else were some of the things that they were saying?
00:29:10.900 --> 00:29:13.140
And I tried to look up an article for that.
00:29:13.279 --> 00:29:15.839
But my internet here is real shitty.
00:29:16.599 --> 00:29:17.940
And it was kind of a last minute thing.
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:19.640
I'm trying to think of what else.
00:29:20.180 --> 00:29:22.240
A spatula or a wooden spoon.
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:23.940
Spatula might work too.
00:29:24.819 --> 00:29:30.519
I would be willing to bet if you really take a look in your kitchen, you will find lots of implements that could be fun for spanking.
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:36.200
I can't think of anything else off the top of my head.
00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:39.380
So I'm going to wrap this up now.
00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:44.019
And I'm really hoping that next week you will get to meet our fantastic neighbors.
00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:49.119
We are just going to bullshit about different things in the lifestyle.
00:29:49.500 --> 00:29:54.259
And I'm sure somehow it will come around to poop because it always does and I'm not sure how.
00:29:55.259 --> 00:29:58.160
But it's fun and they're funny and fantastic people.
00:29:58.339 --> 00:30:00.960
So I hope you stay tuned for that.
00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:02.440
I think it will be worth the wait.
00:30:03.019 --> 00:30:08.140
I hope everyone has a fantastic week in this crazy world we're living in.
00:30:08.779 --> 00:30:09.660
Stay safe.
00:30:09.960 --> 00:30:11.160
Be good human beings.
00:30:12.740 --> 00:30:14.319
And I'll say y'all.
00:30:15.140 --> 00:30:15.680
Love you all.
00:00:00.010 --> 00:00:02.930
Let's look at people for people and not if they have a penis or a pussy.
00:00:03.350 --> 00:00:04.089
How about that?
00:00:08.390 --> 00:00:11.789
This podcast is intended for mature audiences only.
00:00:12.189 --> 00:00:19.870
If you're not 18 years of age or older, there are thousands of other podcasts you can listen to and you can come back and visit us when you are 18.
00:00:20.510 --> 00:00:22.710
This podcast is meant solely for entertainment.
00:00:23.190 --> 00:00:26.050
We are not licensed doctors, lawyers, or therapists.
00:00:26.629 --> 00:00:32.350
We simply have a fascination with the lifestyle and I'd love to share it with you and get your thoughts and opinions.
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:46.119
Welcome back.
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:48.920
Episode 48, I believe.
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:52.539
I'm not quite sure what today's episode is going to be like.
00:00:52.579 --> 00:00:54.240
We're going to kind of fly by the seat of our pants.
00:00:54.420 --> 00:01:01.119
I think we're going to talk about different things at home that you can implement for spanking.
00:01:01.659 --> 00:01:10.299
As well as if you don't choose to use things that you have at home, how you can keep them safe if you have kids in your home.
00:01:10.519 --> 00:01:13.359
It's going to be kind of a hodgepodge of things, I think.
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:15.620
Anyway, stick around.
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:16.700
Should be a fun ride.
00:01:17.859 --> 00:01:20.000
Let's address some housekeeping.
00:01:32.209 --> 00:01:33.709
Well, I shouldn't complain.
00:01:33.950 --> 00:01:44.269
I'm at camp by myself again because my ex decided not to take my youngest this weekend, which, whatever, he's at home with my subbie.
00:01:44.469 --> 00:01:47.849
And I am up here flying solo, doing massage, and now the podcast.
00:01:48.450 --> 00:01:52.629
So I can't really complain because it's been pretty quiet here the last couple days.
00:01:53.329 --> 00:01:56.250
Other than a hell of a storm that came through last night.
00:01:56.430 --> 00:01:57.109
Holy shit.
00:01:58.030 --> 00:02:01.269
Well, my subbie's been at home taking care of the youngest.
00:02:01.650 --> 00:02:04.849
He is also working on his first audiobook.
00:02:05.489 --> 00:02:07.329
That he will be submitting.
00:02:07.650 --> 00:02:08.750
I love that word.
00:02:10.509 --> 00:02:11.090
To Audible.
00:02:11.650 --> 00:02:14.210
It is an erotic book.
00:02:14.490 --> 00:02:17.750
And he said it is really, really good.
00:02:17.889 --> 00:02:19.830
So I'm excited to give it a listen.
00:02:20.210 --> 00:02:25.930
When I have more information about a title or anything, if any of you are interested in listening to it, I will get that information.
00:02:27.210 --> 00:02:30.250
I don't know how long Audible is taking to publish things.
00:02:30.330 --> 00:02:34.189
I know for a while there they were way, way behind.
00:02:34.189 --> 00:02:37.849
They were short-staffed and a lot of people were doing ACX Audible stuff.
00:02:37.949 --> 00:02:40.590
And it just took them a while to get things out.
00:02:42.349 --> 00:02:43.729
Enough of that rambling.
00:02:45.490 --> 00:02:53.270
Okay, last week we kind of talked about spanking and the benefits and things like that.
00:02:53.590 --> 00:02:56.370
Side note, I really tried to attack my email this week.
00:02:56.430 --> 00:03:03.889
So if you sent me an email and you did not get a response, send me an email again and say, I sent you an email on this day.
00:03:03.969 --> 00:03:04.830
Can you respond?
00:03:06.370 --> 00:03:17.530
First, I found two or three different articles on having a kinky lifestyle after you have had children or have children in the house.
00:03:17.770 --> 00:03:20.210
The first paragraph, so I found this article on Vice.
00:03:21.189 --> 00:03:23.650
It says how to stay kinky after you've had kids.
00:03:24.550 --> 00:03:26.150
And I like the first line.
00:03:26.270 --> 00:03:28.810
Just because you have kids doesn't mean kink is over.
00:03:29.629 --> 00:03:33.030
You may have to slow down for a minute, but you're not going to forget it.
00:03:33.210 --> 00:03:40.650
Sometimes all you need is a little inconspicuous black luggage to hide things.
00:03:41.949 --> 00:03:44.610
Having children changes your life, plain and simple.
00:03:44.810 --> 00:03:51.669
The newfound responsibility for caring for an infant will bleed into all aspects of your existence, from your career and social life to your home and personal life.
00:03:51.930 --> 00:03:58.430
It probably goes without saying that your sex life will be affected as your sleep schedule is affected during your first few years of parenting.
00:03:58.810 --> 00:04:03.370
As they grow older, you'll hopefully regain some semblance of your former lifestyle.
00:04:03.909 --> 00:04:09.849
But what if aspects of your identity are at odds with what people tend to consider a child-friendly environment?
00:04:10.469 --> 00:04:20.949
For a parent to embrace kink and consider BDSM a core aspect of their identity and sexuality, how far should you go, if at all, to hide your adult interests from your mini-yous?
00:04:22.550 --> 00:04:39.009
Now, I know we've had this discussion or I've done an episode on a discussion that I had with my daughter, because I don't remember if she heard me call my husband my subbie or what it was, but she kind of asked a few questions.
00:04:39.509 --> 00:04:43.790
I answered as best I could without getting really in detail.
00:04:44.350 --> 00:04:46.970
Obviously, I don't want her to know his penis is in a cage.
00:04:47.050 --> 00:04:49.810
That seems a bit much for even an 18-year-old.
00:04:49.889 --> 00:04:51.629
And who wants to know that about their parents?
00:04:51.629 --> 00:05:06.250
However, I will say that my relationship with my daughter is fantastic in that if she has questions about sex or, well, for example, we just had a conversation the other day about her being okay with doing only what she wants.
00:05:06.370 --> 00:05:12.069
For example, say she's doing something with a guy and she feels bad because he doesn't get to finish.
00:05:13.129 --> 00:05:15.829
And I told her, listen, he doesn't have to.
00:05:16.110 --> 00:05:16.769
You're in charge.
00:05:16.850 --> 00:05:18.449
You're the one doing things to him.
00:05:18.790 --> 00:05:20.709
If you decide to stop, you decide to stop.
00:05:21.269 --> 00:05:22.610
Now, that's just an example.
00:05:22.829 --> 00:05:26.149
But I want her to understand that she is in control of the situation.
00:05:26.509 --> 00:05:30.990
And if she is ready to stop, whatever the case may be, then stop.
00:05:31.430 --> 00:05:41.610
I want her to be very good at setting boundaries for herself and knowing when she doesn't want to do something anymore that it's okay to say, I don't want to do this anymore.
00:05:41.689 --> 00:05:41.949
I'm done.
00:05:42.649 --> 00:05:46.430
And listen, if the guy gets blue balls, sorry about your luck.
00:05:46.889 --> 00:05:48.050
That's just how it goes.
00:05:48.689 --> 00:06:00.110
Like, I understand that sucks for guys, but anyway, I like the discussions that I've had with her, and it makes me happy to know that she is comfortable to come to me to ask me questions.
00:06:01.370 --> 00:06:03.629
Obviously, we're not talking about kink things.
00:06:03.709 --> 00:06:10.850
This is pretty vanilla sex things that she's asking me, and I'm not 100% sure that she's sexually active.
00:06:12.089 --> 00:06:13.569
We have had the discussion.
00:06:13.970 --> 00:06:15.350
We have taken precautions.
00:06:15.610 --> 00:06:16.310
She's prepared.
00:06:16.870 --> 00:06:22.930
I believe she's had sex in the past with one person, but I don't know where she's at right now with it.
00:06:22.949 --> 00:06:26.670
I just let her ask the questions, and if she wants to tell me more, then she can tell me more.
00:06:28.449 --> 00:06:36.589
So also, as a part of this article, it says sex toys are for consenting adults, and oh, consenting adults.
00:06:36.870 --> 00:06:41.089
That doesn't need to be around kids, kinky stuff or non-kinky stuff.
00:06:41.110 --> 00:06:45.449
It doesn't matter, says New York City-based kink-friendly therapist.
00:06:46.310 --> 00:06:49.610
And I cannot pronounce her name, so if you want to see what it is, you'll have to read the article.
00:06:51.009 --> 00:06:57.709
Parents who embrace sex-positive kinky relationships may create a more open and healthy environment for children to grow up in.
00:06:58.189 --> 00:07:12.490
BDSM requires a certain level of openness and honesty, and practicing that behavior could even help parents teach their children about the importance of topics such as consent or keeping an open mind to non-normative taste and not being ashamed of what you're into.
00:07:12.490 --> 00:07:27.949
Not that kids need to be privy to the specifics of what you're negotiating or consenting to, but the kind of relationship that kinky parents might have could be a good model of communication and setting boundaries, says the same therapist.
00:07:28.709 --> 00:07:30.069
I think that's very true.
00:07:30.209 --> 00:07:38.009
I think that my kids feel much more comfortable asking me things than I would have ever felt asking my mom or my dad.
00:07:38.069 --> 00:07:40.870
Well, I would never ask my dad, but asking my mom.
00:07:42.490 --> 00:07:47.709
I do think that my children witness how my husband treats me.
00:07:48.750 --> 00:08:00.470
They maybe don't understand that it's part of the relationship dynamic that we have, but they see how I'm treated and how he does everything he can to support me, encourage me, make my life easier.
00:08:01.209 --> 00:08:05.529
And for my daughter especially, I hope that she learns that she deserves that.
00:08:05.750 --> 00:08:20.029
Whether it's an FLR or not, she deserves a man who will fall all over himself to make her life a little bit easier and make her happy, whether it's a lifestyle dynamic or just a plain vanilla relationship, which I hate the word vanilla.
00:08:20.970 --> 00:08:24.449
And I think this also applies to more than just BDSM relationships.
00:08:24.509 --> 00:08:30.290
I think that's just the topic of this article specifically, but I think it applies to all kink relationships.
00:08:31.129 --> 00:08:34.110
You know, your kids are always watching whether you realize it or not.
00:08:34.629 --> 00:08:38.210
And sometimes I forget, and my youngest is like a fucking sponge.
00:08:38.428 --> 00:08:40.190
He takes everything in.
00:08:40.190 --> 00:08:52.509
So the type of relationship or just the openness in how you communicate with your spouse, I think the kids pick up on that, and then that's what they look for in a relationship.
00:08:52.929 --> 00:08:55.429
And communication is always a good thing in a relationship.
00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:03.960
So this author, the reporter, whoever did this article, spoke to several people.
00:09:04.220 --> 00:09:12.580
I'm not going to read through all of them, but this first person is James from Wisconsin, 31 years old.
00:09:12.679 --> 00:09:15.480
He has two kids aged two and seven months old.
00:09:15.820 --> 00:09:20.220
They ask him to tell them a little bit about himself and his sexuality and things like that.
00:09:20.299 --> 00:09:23.279
He says, I identify as straight, but truthfully, I'm heteroflexible.
00:09:23.620 --> 00:09:27.379
I like people who are feminine with little regard to what genitals they have.
00:09:27.779 --> 00:09:38.759
I'm a dominant male with some sadistic undertones, but I spend 99 percent of my time as just a vanilla dad and husband, which with kids that young, I totally get that.
00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:47.299
I do like his comment about enjoying interacting with people who have little regard for what genitals they have.
00:09:47.860 --> 00:09:56.259
I think there is so much stigma attached to everything gender-related lately, and everybody is so on edge or whatever.
00:09:56.820 --> 00:10:03.980
Like, could we just take away your sexual body parts and, like, look at the person for a human being?
00:10:06.309 --> 00:10:07.129
I don't know.
00:10:07.549 --> 00:10:08.470
Just my opinion.
00:10:09.909 --> 00:10:11.029
I say that a lot.
00:10:11.350 --> 00:10:12.269
Just my opinion.
00:10:13.789 --> 00:10:16.370
Let's look at people for people and not if they have a penis or a pussy.
00:10:17.009 --> 00:10:17.570
How about that?
00:10:18.450 --> 00:10:33.730
So their two-year-old found a butt plug of his mom's, and they had a vanilla friend over, and the two-year-old brought the butt plug out and showed the friend, which it goes on later to say that the friend was maybe interested in giving the butt plug a try.
00:10:33.830 --> 00:10:37.330
Not specifically that one, but something maybe they wanted to try in their relationship.
00:10:37.330 --> 00:10:45.690
But the way they handled it is they just said, you know, that's mommy's toy, and the toddler gave it right back, and no more thought to it.
00:10:46.129 --> 00:10:58.529
He also goes on to talk about, you know, they participate in some BDSM play where maybe it leaves marks on the mom's body, and he does mention in here, too, that they walk around naked a lot in front of their kids.
00:10:59.190 --> 00:11:15.809
And he does say that they intend to not do that as much when the kids get into school but sometimes the toddler will see marks on the mom's body from different play scenes or whatever and just say, the wife says, mommy's owie, and they move on from it.
00:11:16.830 --> 00:11:22.009
I'm curious, though, on what people's thoughts are about being nude in front of your kids.
00:11:22.590 --> 00:11:32.370
I don't have a preference one way or—I mean, obviously, I go to a clothing optional campground, and my two older kids know that that's where I'm at.
00:11:33.009 --> 00:11:33.990
But I would be curious.
00:11:34.129 --> 00:11:36.129
I was never naked around my kids.
00:11:36.269 --> 00:11:51.070
I think when they were babies, I maybe took showers with them or, you know, held them while I took a shower or whatever, but I think that I was so pre-programmed from growing up that, like, being naked is bad.
00:11:51.730 --> 00:11:57.210
There's so much attached to the human body and how somebody looks and so much judgment.
00:11:58.129 --> 00:12:05.230
Like, imagine what the world would be if we could all just see people for people and not what they look like.
00:12:05.350 --> 00:12:09.389
Like, personality, just human characteristics.
00:12:10.370 --> 00:12:10.909
I don't know.
00:12:11.009 --> 00:12:16.149
I think being naked around your kids when they're young like that can kind of make them see that it's not necessarily bad.
00:12:16.409 --> 00:12:24.409
Like, my 18-year-old daughter, for the longest time, was changing in her damn closet in her bedroom with the door closed.
00:12:24.409 --> 00:12:29.289
So, like, her room was empty, and she would still change inside of her closet that had a door.
00:12:30.409 --> 00:12:34.450
She was real uncomfortable being naked, and I don't know if that was because she was uncomfortable with her body.
00:12:34.529 --> 00:12:37.669
If something happened, she's never told me that anything happened.
00:12:37.850 --> 00:12:43.610
I think she would if something had, but she has really come around.
00:12:43.769 --> 00:12:47.090
I mean, now she walks around the house in a sports bra and whatever.
00:12:47.230 --> 00:12:52.710
I mean, she's much more comfortable in her own skin, so maybe that's just her growing up a little bit.
00:12:52.710 --> 00:12:58.210
Maybe it has something to do with me going to a clothing-optional campground, and, you know, she will ask me if I get naked.
00:12:58.629 --> 00:13:07.049
I just tell her I get topless, but I like that she's more comfortable in her own skin and is kind of coming out of her shell.
00:13:07.169 --> 00:13:11.389
She should be proud of herself and her body, and she should love it.
00:13:11.470 --> 00:13:12.429
You only get one.
00:13:12.570 --> 00:13:13.350
Take care of it.
00:13:14.409 --> 00:13:16.309
I shouldn't practice what I preach.
00:13:17.870 --> 00:13:22.929
There is another person that they interview from Texas, 45 years old.
00:13:23.429 --> 00:13:28.710
13, 16, 19, and 21 are their kids' age.
00:13:29.549 --> 00:13:33.049
One of the questions was, do you have to worry about keeping sex toys hidden from your kids?
00:13:33.789 --> 00:13:36.049
Now, these are older kids, so this is interesting.
00:13:37.029 --> 00:13:43.409
We are into spanking, but with belts and stuff that is part of our household, which is another topic I want to touch on.
00:13:43.809 --> 00:13:51.789
Different household items you can use to spank your submissive, or maybe you want your submissive to spank you, whatever your dynamic is.
00:13:52.350 --> 00:13:54.350
She says, I don't wear a collar, never have.
00:13:54.389 --> 00:13:55.690
I have hair down to my waist.
00:13:55.830 --> 00:13:57.110
My husband doesn't need a leash.
00:13:57.190 --> 00:13:58.230
My hair is my leash.
00:13:58.710 --> 00:14:03.909
I have a toy chest that's filled with silk restraints, blindfolds, candles, and other BDSM toys.
00:14:04.529 --> 00:14:07.929
Our kids have always been aware for a long time that mom and dad have a sex life.
00:14:08.190 --> 00:14:10.870
I always wanted my kids to see a good physical relationship.
00:14:11.330 --> 00:14:13.409
That's something we don't hide from our children.
00:14:14.269 --> 00:14:17.690
You get a sense they are slightly embarrassed, but like it too.
00:14:18.110 --> 00:14:24.230
You have families who are in crisis, and to my kids, I'm like, this is for you too, so you can see everything is OK.
00:14:24.710 --> 00:14:27.929
I think our openness with our children really developed from that.
00:14:28.309 --> 00:14:32.710
I'm the crazy mom that goes out and buys my 16-year-old condoms, cock rings, and lube.
00:14:32.990 --> 00:14:37.769
If they're going to explore this, I want them to do it safely with some foresight to what they're doing.
00:14:38.429 --> 00:14:39.750
I think that's fantastic.
00:14:39.750 --> 00:14:46.490
It makes me a little cringy because I think the pre-programming comes into play again.
00:14:46.629 --> 00:14:49.950
Like part of my mind goes, that's not OK.
00:14:50.190 --> 00:14:51.490
But why isn't that OK?
00:14:52.149 --> 00:14:56.750
What makes that not OK if you're educating your children so that they can be safe in the things that they're doing?
00:14:56.870 --> 00:15:01.750
What happens if they go ask a friend and that friend doesn't know what the fuck they're doing and somebody gets hurt?
00:15:02.909 --> 00:15:08.190
Like there was an article, I don't remember which one of these it was, but they had a choking kink.
00:15:08.190 --> 00:15:12.210
And I mean, that can be really dangerous.
00:15:12.549 --> 00:15:18.190
And I really don't feel like kids under 18 should really be doing any type of kink like that.
00:15:18.309 --> 00:15:21.870
But kids that are under 18 are doing things they shouldn't be doing all the time.
00:15:22.049 --> 00:15:32.049
And I just feel like having an educated person doing things like that is probably better than just saying, oh, go ask your friend or watch a YouTube video.
00:15:32.590 --> 00:15:36.870
I think the more educated the younger generation can be about different kinks.
00:15:36.870 --> 00:15:50.370
And who knows, what's that going to be like in the future with parents or people in general just being more open about their kinks and what they're into and there being more discussions about it?
00:15:50.470 --> 00:15:51.529
Will this be more normalized?
00:15:51.809 --> 00:15:53.129
I mean, that would be really fucking nice.
00:15:53.250 --> 00:16:03.690
I mean, it's not like you have to see TV commercials for strap-ons, but it would just be nice if there was a lot less kink shaming and people could just let people be what they want to be.
00:16:04.429 --> 00:16:09.750
This is Chris from New Jersey, 35 years old, two kids, 3 and 19 months.
00:16:10.149 --> 00:16:14.870
One of the questions was, what's your at-home kink setup like?
00:16:15.610 --> 00:16:18.809
And it says, we live in a 3-4 Victorian house.
00:16:18.909 --> 00:16:21.389
At the moment, all of our kink activities occur in our bedroom.
00:16:21.570 --> 00:16:26.509
We have a large plastic footlocker in our bedroom closet that we keep all of our toys in.
00:16:26.809 --> 00:16:31.029
I recently got over $200 in electrical E-STEM equipment, which has been a joy.
00:16:31.029 --> 00:16:35.690
I finally got an actual gag after all this time because I'm very noisy.
00:16:36.309 --> 00:16:42.929
I picked up a new hood and a pair of latex briefs with a built-in anal plug, a spreader bar, and a couple different whips.
00:16:43.409 --> 00:16:45.730
So that would be another point of interest.
00:16:45.830 --> 00:16:47.750
Like, we don't have a bedroom door.
00:16:48.129 --> 00:16:53.649
If you've listened to any of my podcasts, we're kind of in our family room because we have as many people crammed in our house as we possibly can.
00:16:54.529 --> 00:17:01.490
And we actually use a toolbox that has a padlock on it that we store under our bed.
00:17:01.929 --> 00:17:07.568
And we have a pretty big selection of things at our camper as well because I know they're safe here.
00:17:07.608 --> 00:17:08.470
There's no kids here.
00:17:09.068 --> 00:17:13.690
But we keep ours locked in a toolbox underneath our bed, or sometimes it goes in our closet.
00:17:14.730 --> 00:17:21.789
I don't know that really matters where it's placed, but there's no way for the kids to get into it unless they got a bolt cutter of some sort.
00:17:22.450 --> 00:17:24.890
Obviously, we would know they were in, and we would have a discussion.
00:17:26.150 --> 00:17:32.069
But I would be curious what if there's anybody out there listening that has kids, where do you store your toys?
00:17:32.829 --> 00:17:34.130
Or how do you store your toys?
00:17:34.230 --> 00:17:36.130
Or do your kids just stay the hell out of your room?
00:17:36.170 --> 00:17:37.970
And if they do, what the fuck is that like?
00:17:38.990 --> 00:17:41.269
Oh, this question is from the same person.
00:17:41.769 --> 00:17:45.529
Would you be open with them about your kinks if the kids asked?
00:17:45.970 --> 00:17:49.049
And the response was, Jesus, they're three and one and a half.
00:17:49.049 --> 00:17:54.109
In another 10 years, I'm going to have to have a conversation with them that's a little more serious.
00:17:54.650 --> 00:17:58.549
I hope to be as honest as I can without providing specific details.
00:18:01.059 --> 00:18:02.660
OK, so that article is from Vice.
00:18:02.859 --> 00:18:04.339
I will put that in my show notes.
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:08.880
There was another article that I found from medium.com.
00:18:09.240 --> 00:18:11.259
Do your kids need to know about your kink lifestyle?
00:18:11.839 --> 00:18:20.200
This one's interesting because the author of this article, her daughter found her on, I don't know if her daughter found her on Fat Life, but they had a discussion.
00:18:20.680 --> 00:18:29.660
So as the conversation happened easily and naturally enough, my adult child told me that they were on this kink site called Fat Life as they had an interest in kink.
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:31.480
Oh, shit, I thought.
00:18:32.099 --> 00:18:33.559
I knew this would happen one day.
00:18:33.660 --> 00:18:39.880
If I had found my way onto Fat Life, why wouldn't I think my child would not do that as well?
00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:44.000
I told her that I knew about the site and that I was an active member.
00:18:44.140 --> 00:18:46.480
Not only am I an active member, but I'm fairly visible.
00:18:47.019 --> 00:18:50.180
I've had people recognize me for my presence a couple of times already.
00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:53.859
If I didn't tell her myself, she could find out on her own.
00:18:54.940 --> 00:18:56.680
I'm not ashamed of my activity there.
00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:00.640
I started writing about sex on the site and have cultivated a good-sized following.
00:19:01.099 --> 00:19:09.799
I have taken and posted erotic self-portraits, and I have thoroughly enjoyed doing so, especially since it has enabled me to have a better body image.
00:19:10.299 --> 00:19:13.900
I have made some invaluable friends, and I have learned quite a lot.
00:19:14.099 --> 00:19:15.859
I have no reason to feel ashamed.
00:19:16.180 --> 00:19:18.759
I'm a sexual woman who also happens to be a parent.
00:19:19.099 --> 00:19:23.420
I really like that because I think it's a hard bridge for people to cross over.
00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:28.319
Once they've had kids, they feel like, just like the other article said, like, you can't be kinky because you have kids.
00:19:28.400 --> 00:19:29.299
That's not acceptable.
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:30.799
Why the fuck not?
00:19:31.380 --> 00:19:32.619
How do you think the kids got here?
00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:34.799
I'm sure you were having some kinky sex.
00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:35.339
Didn't you?
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:38.660
That's what I mean by normalizing this.
00:19:38.759 --> 00:19:43.019
Like, obviously, I'm not going to sit down with my 12-year-old and tell him that I put my husband's dick in a cage.
00:19:44.140 --> 00:19:45.900
I mean, you have to have your boundaries.
00:19:46.200 --> 00:19:48.359
And listen, I'm not here to tell you how to parent your kids either.
00:19:48.359 --> 00:19:50.660
So you do what's best for you.
00:19:50.819 --> 00:19:52.700
I'll do what I think is best for me.
00:19:53.019 --> 00:19:54.660
Parenting doesn't come with a fucking handbook.
00:19:54.779 --> 00:19:57.200
And God, some days I wish it did, because holy shit.
00:19:58.819 --> 00:20:00.440
I think you have to do what's best.
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:01.960
Nobody knows your kid better than you.
00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:04.940
So you decide what's best for your kid.
00:20:05.079 --> 00:20:09.920
I would choose not to tell my child about the male chastity part of it and tell me if he's older.
00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:15.279
And even then, I don't know, I keep repeating that because I'm really on the fence.
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:18.180
But my kids know what I do for work.
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:20.079
My youngest just knows I do voiceover.
00:20:20.460 --> 00:20:22.480
My older two know I do erotic voiceover.
00:20:22.980 --> 00:20:28.900
I have had discussions with my oldest about if he finds me on TikTok, he probably does not want to watch what he sees on TikTok.
00:20:29.160 --> 00:20:30.779
He should probably just keep on scrolling.
00:20:31.720 --> 00:20:37.140
My ex-husband likes to grill my daughter about whether I'm a swinger or not, which is none of his business.
00:20:38.799 --> 00:20:45.420
But my daughter said to me the other day, she's like, doesn't it kind of gross you out that people are jerking off to your voice?
00:20:46.940 --> 00:20:47.720
Fuck no.
00:20:48.279 --> 00:20:50.180
First of all, I think it's hot.
00:20:50.500 --> 00:20:53.059
Second of all, I'm making somebody happy.
00:20:54.500 --> 00:21:02.920
Even if it's just for a minute, maybe they've had a real shit week, month, whatever, and they order this voiceover from me and it brings them just that little bit of joy.
00:21:04.680 --> 00:21:06.000
I like to help people.
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:07.259
I like to make people happy.
00:21:08.299 --> 00:21:08.940
It's a win.
00:21:08.940 --> 00:21:13.819
I think just like the lifestyle things, it's all about changing your perspective on how you look at things.
00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:16.720
I'm not ashamed of what I do at all.
00:21:17.700 --> 00:21:24.839
And that has been a road for me because in the beginning, I was kind of shy about it and I didn't want to say much.
00:21:25.380 --> 00:21:25.819
Fuck that.
00:21:25.900 --> 00:21:26.700
Now I own it.
00:21:27.119 --> 00:21:31.240
And I say this all the time, but I have lost some friends because of this.
00:21:31.660 --> 00:21:42.059
If you didn't like, if you liked me before you found out what I did or what I'm doing now for work or whatever the case may be, but now all of a sudden you don't like me, that's your loss.
00:21:42.259 --> 00:21:43.519
I'm not a different person.
00:21:43.819 --> 00:21:45.440
I'm the same person I've always been.
00:21:45.559 --> 00:21:47.440
I just do something different for work.
00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:50.480
And it's not even really like work.
00:21:50.619 --> 00:21:52.539
Like, I fucking love doing voiceovers.
00:21:52.980 --> 00:21:57.640
I love being in that booth and recording, whether it's erotic or non-erotic.
00:21:58.359 --> 00:22:00.400
Maybe I'm conceited and like the sound of my own voice.
00:22:00.500 --> 00:22:02.299
Whatever it is, I enjoy it.
00:22:08.140 --> 00:22:14.400
So the other interesting part of this article that I liked was laying the groundwork for a sex-positive home.
00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:23.059
My attitude towards the information that I impart to my children is shaped by an awareness of their age and their individual maturity.
00:22:23.539 --> 00:22:27.160
I also construct my answers to their questions on a need-to-know basis.
00:22:28.079 --> 00:22:31.299
It is a fairly wide-ranging and flexible policy.
00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:35.859
Nevertheless, over the years, I have found that it has provided me with immeasurable and helpful guidance.
00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:41.980
When my eight-year-old son asked me what sex was, I gave him the basics.
00:22:42.140 --> 00:22:43.240
Penis goes in the vagina.
00:22:43.460 --> 00:22:46.720
If the sperm fertilizes the egg, then a baby can be conceived.
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:50.700
After seeing a condom commercial, the same son asked what they were.
00:22:51.660 --> 00:22:54.680
I discussed birth control and sexually transmitted infections.
00:22:55.160 --> 00:23:00.819
We discussed HIV and AIDS, and it had recently been World AIDS Day, and his school discussed it vaguely.
00:23:01.640 --> 00:23:04.579
My daughter was about nine when she asked me what a period was.
00:23:04.839 --> 00:23:05.539
I explained.
00:23:05.779 --> 00:23:08.240
A few questions later, I was telling her about sex.
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:11.960
She asked me, so does that mean you and dad?
00:23:12.619 --> 00:23:14.440
I nodded my head, and she laughed.
00:23:15.859 --> 00:23:18.960
I never really had these discussions with my mom when I was younger.
00:23:19.059 --> 00:23:20.700
When I got my period, I was scared shitless.
00:23:20.779 --> 00:23:22.200
I didn't know what the fuck was going on.
00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:25.079
I don't ever want my kid to feel that way.
00:23:26.460 --> 00:23:32.500
That I said, I want my daughter to have all my kids to have the information about sex.
00:23:32.579 --> 00:23:34.980
Fuck, when I got my period, I didn't know what the fuck was going on.
00:23:34.980 --> 00:23:35.900
I was scared shitless.
00:23:35.960 --> 00:23:36.460
I was 10.
00:23:36.460 --> 00:23:38.579
Nobody ever had those talks with me.
00:23:39.000 --> 00:23:46.339
I would rather have my kids informed and understand and ask me rather than their friends.
00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:51.220
It's important for kids to understand that parents are sexual beings too.
00:23:52.500 --> 00:23:55.579
Kids are coming into their sexuality at whatever age.
00:23:55.660 --> 00:23:56.460
Every kid is different.
00:23:57.039 --> 00:24:01.460
But for kids to think that their parents don't have sex is ridiculous.
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:10.500
And this is something I need to get over too, because I have a hard time when we do have sex, having sex because I'm so worried that the kids are going to walk in.
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:13.500
Well, I don't have a bedroom door.
00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:16.259
And you, I mean, listen, this is what adults do.
00:24:16.500 --> 00:24:23.960
And if you decide to walk in my room after bedtime and you see something you don't want to, I'm real sorry.
00:24:24.079 --> 00:24:30.180
But this is my house, and I'm an adult, and this is acceptable activity for adults.
00:24:32.859 --> 00:24:40.380
Anyway, there is a whole other article as well as how to stay kinky after having kids.
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:42.720
And I'll just kind of run through.
00:24:42.900 --> 00:24:49.299
This is from, I don't know, I'll have to, I'll try and link it in my show notes.
00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:51.819
It was posted in 2017.
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:54.579
So, I mean, I'm sure there's probably an updated article.
00:24:54.779 --> 00:24:58.140
But one of the things you can do is take threesomes elsewhere.
00:24:58.140 --> 00:25:03.319
You can ask the person that's the third or whatever that's participating, ask if they can host.
00:25:04.140 --> 00:25:05.400
Soundproof your bedroom walls.
00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:09.039
And that can be as simple as just doing a DIY headboard or something.
00:25:09.779 --> 00:25:12.519
Put your room and your kids' room as far apart as possible.
00:25:13.079 --> 00:25:16.640
I don't have that option, but for some people, you can put them on the other end of the house.
00:25:17.940 --> 00:25:19.460
Try an office rendezvous.
00:25:20.180 --> 00:25:22.079
I don't have an office, and neither does my husband.
00:25:22.180 --> 00:25:22.880
It'd be his truck.
00:25:23.019 --> 00:25:24.779
And we've done that, but it's a little dirty.
00:25:25.920 --> 00:25:26.559
Worth it, though.
00:25:29.059 --> 00:25:30.420
Uh, use code words.
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:31.220
This is fun.
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:40.059
If you can come up with different code words to mean things that only you and your husband, wife, whatever, your partner know, that would be kind of funny.
00:25:40.819 --> 00:25:42.359
My daughter does that with one of her friends.
00:25:42.460 --> 00:25:44.559
They have, they've made up like their own little language.
00:25:45.500 --> 00:25:47.460
So they'll sit and talk to each other in that language.
00:25:47.640 --> 00:25:53.079
I can kind of understand it, but I don't understand all of it, which, fuck, I don't understand half the words she uses.
00:25:53.880 --> 00:25:54.539
I'm old.
00:25:55.980 --> 00:25:57.839
Teach your kids to accept who they are.
00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:05.819
If you and your partner are kinky, then you should accept it, because if you don't accept who you are, your kids will sense it, and they won't accept who they are.
00:26:06.539 --> 00:26:16.380
Keeping up your kinky sex life can be a good way to keep an open mind and keep the importance of self-acceptance on the forefront of your brain so you can teach it to your children.
00:26:17.920 --> 00:26:18.799
Fucking fantastic.
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:22.299
I had to read that whole one because I think that's so important.
00:26:23.500 --> 00:26:24.599
Let's see what else is there.
00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:26.519
Play the stranger's game.
00:26:26.660 --> 00:26:31.480
Meet at a hotel lobby bar wearing disguises and pretend to be entirely new people meeting for the first time.
00:26:31.819 --> 00:26:35.160
Pack a suitcase of nothing but just your sex toys and get a room.
00:26:35.380 --> 00:26:39.380
This also gives your partner a much-needed one-on-one time after you've had kids.
00:26:40.539 --> 00:26:41.380
We've done that before.
00:26:41.500 --> 00:26:43.599
Not played the stranger game, but met at a hotel room.
00:26:45.200 --> 00:26:48.000
Don't feel pressured to answer every question your child has.
00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:53.980
If your child accidentally finds one of your sex toys, you can simply tell him, that's one of my private items, and take it away.
00:26:53.980 --> 00:26:57.880
He isn't entitled to every piece of information about your life.
00:26:58.140 --> 00:27:03.019
You already had the fact that the tooth fairy is fake, so why not tell a little lie about your anal beads?
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:07.019
Keep food and sex food separate.
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:08.259
And I saw this.
00:27:08.779 --> 00:27:16.180
I want to do an episode on food play, mainly because I'm curious on what people do with food during sex.
00:27:16.720 --> 00:27:17.700
I might be interested in that.
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:19.200
I like food and I like sex.
00:27:19.920 --> 00:27:21.559
Use items you already have.
00:27:22.099 --> 00:27:27.859
So if you don't want to have toys around your house, this is where we're going to talk about the different things around your house that you can implement.
00:27:28.079 --> 00:27:30.119
It's going to be real fast, just at the end.
00:27:31.279 --> 00:27:32.579
Get into muffles and gags.
00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:33.720
I hate gags.
00:27:34.220 --> 00:27:35.599
Just a little PSA about me.
00:27:36.099 --> 00:27:37.059
They freak me out.
00:27:37.220 --> 00:27:37.799
I don't know why.
00:27:37.960 --> 00:27:39.019
I just do not like them.
00:27:39.900 --> 00:27:41.519
Play the don't make a sound game.
00:27:42.539 --> 00:27:46.700
If you like a challenge, you can forego the gags and play the don't make a sound game.
00:27:46.700 --> 00:27:50.200
You challenge each other to be as quiet as possible during sex.
00:27:50.420 --> 00:27:55.200
The whole thing takes on an air of secrecy that's really sexy.
00:27:57.880 --> 00:27:58.940
Noise proof your bed.
00:28:00.180 --> 00:28:02.119
And give your kids white noise machines.
00:28:02.680 --> 00:28:06.299
My youngest does have, it's like a Rainmaker sound thing in his room.
00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:09.299
Okay, I need to wrap this up.
00:28:09.720 --> 00:28:14.619
I had a discussion with the neighbors who fucking hopefully will be on the podcast next week.
00:28:14.619 --> 00:28:19.400
I have been assured that my youngest is going to be at his dad's next weekend.
00:28:19.619 --> 00:28:22.400
And I would really like my subbie to be on the episode with the neighbors.
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:26.539
So that has been the issue is the last two to three weeks.
00:28:26.539 --> 00:28:28.019
I have been at camp by myself.
00:28:28.420 --> 00:28:32.279
And he isn't able to come up even just long enough to do the podcast.
00:28:32.660 --> 00:28:36.940
So next week, I'm hoping to have our neighbors on for real.
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:42.299
But I was having a discussion with them this morning on their deaf was having a morning cigarette.
00:28:42.299 --> 00:28:49.920
And we were just talking about different items around the house that you could use for spanking implements.
00:28:50.839 --> 00:28:53.539
And one of the first things that came up was a frying pan.
00:28:54.660 --> 00:28:56.559
I would say be very careful.
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:59.980
I mean, obviously, you're all adults, you know how to be safe.
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:03.059
But fucking hell, a frying pan could do some damage, you would think.
00:29:03.700 --> 00:29:08.259
But belts, fly swatters, metal hangers, plastic hangers.
00:29:08.819 --> 00:29:10.900
What else were some of the things that they were saying?
00:29:10.900 --> 00:29:13.140
And I tried to look up an article for that.
00:29:13.279 --> 00:29:15.839
But my internet here is real shitty.
00:29:16.599 --> 00:29:17.940
And it was kind of a last minute thing.
00:29:18.319 --> 00:29:19.640
I'm trying to think of what else.
00:29:20.180 --> 00:29:22.240
A spatula or a wooden spoon.
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:23.940
Spatula might work too.
00:29:24.819 --> 00:29:30.519
I would be willing to bet if you really take a look in your kitchen, you will find lots of implements that could be fun for spanking.
00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:36.200
I can't think of anything else off the top of my head.
00:29:37.119 --> 00:29:39.380
So I'm going to wrap this up now.
00:29:40.039 --> 00:29:44.019
And I'm really hoping that next week you will get to meet our fantastic neighbors.
00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:49.119
We are just going to bullshit about different things in the lifestyle.
00:29:49.500 --> 00:29:54.259
And I'm sure somehow it will come around to poop because it always does and I'm not sure how.
00:29:55.259 --> 00:29:58.160
But it's fun and they're funny and fantastic people.
00:29:58.339 --> 00:30:00.960
So I hope you stay tuned for that.
00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:02.440
I think it will be worth the wait.
00:30:03.019 --> 00:30:08.140
I hope everyone has a fantastic week in this crazy world we're living in.
00:30:08.779 --> 00:30:09.660
Stay safe.
00:30:09.960 --> 00:30:11.160
Be good human beings.
00:30:12.740 --> 00:30:14.319
And I'll say y'all.
00:30:15.140 --> 00:30:15.680
Love you all.
