I started going back to the office again, which means that I have more time to listen to kinky podcasts on my commute! YAY! The S&M Chronicles: A Kink Podcast What is the podcast about? This podcast is about two New Yorkers, "S" and "M", and their journey into the BDSM scene. In each episode,...
There is a new sex-positive community in town. THE FOX DEN CLUB The Fox Den was founded in 2021, but don't let the year fool you. Behind this community there is a beautiful, charming, and fierce Irish woman who has strong roots in the kink and sex positive London community. Foxy (aka Sinead Mac Manus)...
In the past I covered sex workers in a few blog posts; I wrote HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE UK SEX INDUSTRY? – PART 1, then PART 2, and also covered more recent trends such as in COVID-19, ONLY FANS, SEX, AND SOME BELLA THORNE DRAMA. I was chatting to a friend recently,...
Not long ago, I wrote about the Pegging 101 online workshop, run by Killing Kittens (see their Hedonism party review here). Today I wanted to cover pegging in a little more details, so I present you: MORE ABOUT PEGGING! Let's start with the basics, and then expand a little: The what and the who: pegging is...
Warning: just a tiny spoiler (and only if you hover above the word spoiler) and lots of swearing (as it doesn't feel right writing about The Boys without swearing) I am a sucker for Marvel, DC Comics, Dark Horse, and such. But recently, I have discovered another couple of comic book publishers: Wildstorm and Dynamite...
It was 2019, when I heard bury a friend on youtube for the first time. I was randomly browsing random music, and I got so engrossed in it. Yeah, late to the party I know (see 2016 interview with Vogue), but I didn't stop there. I loved the song, the lyrics, the beat, and I...
Quick one, have you watched Big Month? You know, the one that openly talks about porn, underage drinking, and sex? From right to left: Nick Kroll: Nick Birch, the lucky one with loving and (kinda) overprotective parents, definitely the late bloomer. Jessi Klein: Jessi Glaser, sassy and smart, with the loving yet a tiny bit...
It took me a long time to write this post. It's a collection of personal experiences before I discovered (read: acknowledged I was into) kink. I hope you enjoy the different point of view, I've never shared this much before. The other day, I was chatting to a friend, and I mentioned how I am looking...
Watched this the other day, and I can comfortably say I now have a kilt fetish. Uh. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Men in Kilts (@meninkiltsstarz) View this post on Instagram A post shared by Men in Kilts (@meninkiltsstarz) View this post on Instagram A post shared by Men in Kilts...
This lockdown 3.0, I have tried to do more walks. But since I am easily bored, I do cemeteries walks. Let's admit it, parks are boring. It's just grass everywhere. Tombstones, on the other side, are always a good read, charming, and I sometime feel like I am walking in a museum (remember the good...
I don't do presents at Christmas. Everyone who knows me, knows this. I am a Grinch, really. It's true, I swear. It doesn't stop at my no-presents-policy... (why I don't do presents? maybe I was scarred by terrible *insert item of clothing here* in the past? or maybe because they are never well-thought-out? or maybe...
I often write about latex. I love this glossy, shaping, vegan (comes from the rubber tree), and simply captivating material. I do own a few things myself, and I know it is as beautiful as it is 'fragile' (yes, fragile). Whether you are thinking of getting something, or maybe you already have a full wardrobe,...
They live in NY, they work for a fashion magazine, and ... they are bold. From left to right: Aisha Dee: Kat Edison, the social media gal who struggles with her own racial identity (she's mixed race) and with her own sexuality (erm yeah that too). She's on a journey to discover herself! Katie Stevens:...
In my description, I say I blog about kink, fetish, and BDSM. So, I thought, let's break these down a little, and provide some definitions. After all, a refresher never hurts! Let's start with the basics... WHAT IS VANILLA SEX? Vanilla sex is regular sex. Basically, all sexual behaviour without any kink, fetish, or BDSM...
2021 started with a bang didn't it? I feel like so much has happened since I wrote about Dirty Talk two weeks ago... Starting from the Storming of the United States Capitol last week, Donal Trump's temporary ban from Facebook and Instagram, and suspension from Twitter (about fucking time), Elon Musk overtaking Jeff Bezos as...
Happy New Year! YAY, 2020 is over! Now that's out of the way... Let's start the new year with a kink! What is Dirty Talk? Ok so I have been wanting to write about dirty talk for a while. Dirty talk is a sexually explicit speech intended to arouse or seduce someone. It's often one...
Sometimes I can't believe it's December already... and sometimes I feel like this year has been the longest I ever had to live through. Yet here we are. At the early stages of lockdown here in the UK, I wrote about the sex toys industry and how COVID-19 affected it. Then not long ago, I...
This 2020 saw the cancellation of both, Eurovision and London Pride (damn you COVID). And this December, I felt a little nostalgic, and wanted to spend some time reminiscing on both. I wrote about Eurovision before, back in 2019 an Icelandic band, Hatari, made headlines with their song ‘Hate will prevail’. Full blog post here....
Just wanted to say congrats to RuPaul, who after being the first ever Drag Queen to make the cover of Vanity Fair, now made the cover of Cosmopolitan too! Oh and Happy 60th Birthday :) ALBERT SANCHEZ AND PEDRO ZALBA | ALICE COWLING View this post on Instagram A post shared by Cosmopolitan UK (@cosmopolitanuk)...
What are you looking at? uh? uh?? I'll tell you what you are looking at. You are looking at the largest cast of transgender actors in TV history. That's what you are looking at. From left to right (*small spoiler alert*): Hailie Sahar: Lulu, founder of the House of Ferocity alongside Candy. Dominique Jackson: Elektra,...
I think I promised you an interview, didn't I? :) I thought I would look into a Brighton and Hove based charity, with 20+ years’ experience in providing support to women. Name: Oasis Project - registered charity number 1065503 Place and date of birth: Brighton, 1997 Job: Support women and their families who are affected...
In Great Britain (England, Wales and Scotland), the act of engaging in sex as part of an exchange of sexual services for money is legal.* *Yes, you read that correctly. Prostitution is LEGAL in most of the UK. In Northern Ireland paying for sex became illegal in 2015. Prostitution is the oldest profession in the...
Whether you are going for a walk, running errands, or doing something I would never do (like exercise for instance), it's always good to have a podcast to listen to. Especially if the podcast is run by two of London's biggest Burlesque performers, who (like the rest of us) are stuck at home more often than...
Honestly, I don't know about you, but Saint Laurent Autumn/Winter 20 collection tastes like BDSM, Club Kids, and women empowerment... mixed with some tartan. SAINT LAURENT AUTUMN/WINTER 2020 CLUB KIDS Which bring me to something else... do you know who the Club Kids are? In short, the Club Kids were a bunch of dance club...
As I continue to explore kink, BDSM, and whatnot, I decided to take a slightly more academic approach this time. Let's start by looking into the life of a real-life Dominatrix and her journey through the BDSM industry: Aleta Cai. Aleta Cai is a NY-based healer and dominatrix who, through Sacred BDSM, helps her clients...
Like everyone else (right?), I love Lady Gaga. So I thought I would share some of my fav outfits she wore recently :) starting with... 'HAUS LABORATORIES' One of my top favourite latex brand, William Wilde! Gaga wore this dress in one of the ads for the cruelty free and vegan beauty brand: HAUS LABORATORIES....
UK Leather & Fetish Archive is an IG channel documenting and providing open access to the history of fetish, kink & BDSM in the UK. Right now, they are leading a survey for the fetish community; so I thought I would share the questionnaire and responses (from yours truly) with you :) Name: Kinky Tiger...
16 years have passed since Bob Carlos Clarke's last exhibition in 2004 at The Little Black Gallery in London. Two years later he committed suicide. If you look him up online, you will find out that Bob Carlos Clarke was born in Cork, Ireland in 1950. He moved to England to study art and design at...
I think it's been a while since I last posted about latex... Earlier this year Harikrishnan was walking his dog, and a strange thought came into his mind: how does he see me? That's what inspired 26-year-old London student for his graduate show at London College of Fashion. Blown up trousers, in latex. “I was...
Since social events are stil out of the question, and I had more free evenings than usual (*rolling eyes* thank you Covid), I thought of attending an online workshop on something that always fascinated me, but never tried! I joined Introduction to Shibari by Killing Kittens, hosted by Gregg Hiigara and Mili-fecent :) Have you heard...
Yes, it was only time before I wrote about sex toys. With a global pandemic in progress, and many of us at home full-time, it's no surprise sex toys made the news on multiple occasions. The Guardian wrote about Sexual Exploration (Self-love in isolation: 'I hope people are using this time to explore their sexuality'),...
I recently attended the Pegging 101 online workshop run by Killing Kittens (see their Hedonism party review here), and hosted by Lola Jean. What can I say... It was informative, unashamed, and highly practical, simply awesome ♥ Have you heard of Killing Kittens? I have reviewed one of their parties here (last one before lockdown!)...
Since it looks like we are all going to be home for a little while longer, I thought I would write a different kind of fashion blog post today! First of all, happy Bank Holiday to those of you who are in the UK. Three out of four Spring holidays on lockdown, only one more...
31/10/2020 00:10 UNTIL HALLOWEEN We are still on lockdown here in the UK, and I know chances are slim, but I am really hoping for normality in time for Halloween... Until then, I thought of getting some inspirations for things to do at home (or at least fantasize about it); so I re-watched the whole TV...
As we are all doing the social distancing during lockdown, I thought I would share some interesting and amusing news... A girl from Montreal decided to do her shopping extra safely: Vicky Devika, the artist, model, and DJ behind the Elusive Rubber Creature tells MTL Blog that she "knew the video would be well received...
It's pandemic-blog-writing today. I think Covid-19 is now the biggest epidemic since HIV/AIDS, which killed over 32 millions people since the 1920s (and counting..). On that happy note, and with a government lockdown in place, I can confidently say that my party-review posts will be on hold indefinitely. This means, that my upcoming blog posts...
“Dr. Marston, Wonder Woman has drawn criticism for being full of deciptions of bondage, spanking, torture, homosexuality, and other sex perversions.

Following my last blog of the Alexander McQueen exhibition, now it's Tim Walker's turn :) Tim Walker is rather eccentric British photographer, who made his name one the cover of Vogue and W magazines.

Fetish fetish fetish... such a misunderstood word. Fetish is simply a small (or large) obsession with an object - say handcuffs, latex, ropes, or anything that meets your fantasies - or a specific body part - boobs and bums here reign above all, but of course also feet, hands, eyes, tummies and so on. The...

Alexander McQueen is always been such an eccentric and charismatic artist, threading on the edge between the unconventional and the unthinkable. The play made about him - McQueen - was a taste of a life that was cut too short, that ended too soon. As the Guardian put it, the theater production was a 'meticulous...
Fell in love with Christina in 2002 with her album Stripped, and yet I have to say I am still in love with her..

Guardian review here. ...

BDSM landed at Eurovision 2019! The Icelandic band Hatari joined the world’s longest-running televised song competition with their latest song: 'Hate will prevail'. Shocking both spectators and judges this year, the soft-spoken band brings to the contest punk rock music, controversial politics, and an abundance of bondage and latex. If you would like...
Was flickling through the issue of Bazaar mentioned in my previous post, and saw this dress. I could swear I saw it before and guess what? I saw it on the gorgeous Rachel Weisz at the Oscars back in February :) Wasn't the only one to notice of course... ;) Rachel Weisz ❤️ Is...
I mean, if Sophie Turner wearing LATEX on the cover page of Bazaar doesn't make this amazing, sleek, shiny material mainstream, I don't know what will! Love it and LOVE HER!

When I saw this, I could not believe my eyes! How amazing is this? Finally a TV Show that is not scared of openly talk about kinks, BDSM, and the fetish scene! This 3 hours gem (it's only 6 episodes, of about 15-18 minutes each) is available on Netflix and it's absolutely worth a watch....

Shall we talk about how sexy this guy is? I admired him in 'We need to talk about Kevin', then I adored him as Credence in 'Fantastic Beasts', and now, after this photoshoot (and interview), I'm in love. His story is amazing, his spirit pure, and that face. He has face! “I’ve been attacked...
