#256 - KinkyCast Crew New Years Show 2018
Every year at this time we gather members of the KinkyCast crew and sit around the dining table to discuss the happenings in our world. This year’s topic is Mainstreaming. We once had an exclusive little club called Kink. It didn’t matter if you were LGBTQ+, swinger, poly, straight, BDSM practitioner, or any of the other flavors for kink that make the crazy quilt that we are. We stayed underground, because it was safe. The fewer outsiders that knew about what we did, the better. Time goes by and now it seems everyone you meet is kinky in some way. They read a book, saw in on TV, or were surprised by it in a movie. Curiosity blooms. Follow the links below for a lot more info.
Mainstreaming is the main theme, but we go off in the corners and talk about kinky education, where to get it and the make-up of a kinkster. Our panel of seven discuss what’s going on and how to stay safe in style. We also bring in our old friend Master Cecil for perspective. Join, Woody, Leigh, Autumn Orange, Terik, the Beast, Professor Vanilla and MissTress for a look into “Mainstreaming”.
