Featuring Pup Amp and Mr. Kristofer from Watts The Safeword
We teamed up with Watts the Safeword’s Pup Amp & Mr. Kristopher for their annual Kinky Census! More than 3000 people took the survey providing insight into the latest alt-sex and BDSM trends.
What are the most popular kinks? Weirdest fetishes? How many kinksters are neurodivergent? Are there more tops or bottoms? What’s our biggest squick? Is it common to not be into your partner’s kinks? How do most people handle kink incompatibility? What the answers to these questions (and more!) revealed about the BDSM community, what we fantasize about, and the most popular fetishes is fascinating!
And if you really want to geek out, tune into episode #156 of the Watts Your Safeword Podcast (you can find it on Spotify, Apple, or your favorite streaming service). Sexologist, BDSM expert, and Zipper Magazine Editor-in-Chief, Sunny Megatron, joined Amp for a deep dive into the psychological and cultural forces behind what the kink community is into.
