And Now a Message From Your Kinky Mom

While researching female fantasies I stumbled across an article discussing the popularity among young women to find casual sex partners online. Whether dating through the popular online services and sleeping with those that appealed, or hooking up through someplace like Craigslist, these stories sent the mom in me screaming. Girls, girls, what are you thinking?

Young men, too, admitted to the practice. Studies even reported an increase in people hooking up online following the murder done by The Craigslist Killer. And I shiver in fear for them.

When the women detailed scenes of bondage, spanking and such, I realized how much more important it is for those in the BDSM lifestyle.

Do you practice safety, whether in dating or lifestyle practices? As a single woman I "get" the appeal of sex with no strings attached, or a one-time scene to explore new avenues. It's liberating, playing by your own rules. But are you really?

Powererotics, a BDSM site, has an excellent Q&A on safety. The truth of the matter is, we never know what's in the mind of another person, so we take steps to lessen the chances of a dangerous situation occurring.


The article I read that started my mom-worries was at Glamour.com, and it ends with suggestions for safety when meeting someone for the first time, no matter where you connected. Nothing extreme, just sane, logical ideas to protect yourself. It's worth reading, and rereading every time you're feeling the rush of a new acquaintance.



This is your kinky mom speaking. You are important. You deserve exciting sex and a long life. Take the steps ahead of time to see you get both. And always be sure you have plenty of condoms!

  1. Thanks, Mom! (grin) But we all need as many links as we can get reminding us abut safety. It's too easy to get caught up in our dreams and the emotional tidal wave.

  2. Aw! *tackle hug* Safety first. I suspect there are a lot of people out there who could probably benefit from the advice of a Kinky Mom.
