Stepping into kink isn’t just about learning new activities. It is about entering a new culture.
In this bonus episode of The Kink Compass, Chris explores what really feels different when moving from vanilla into kink, and why so many misunderstandings happen along the way.

We talk about explicit consent, negotiation as connection, boundaries as erotic information, and the quiet grey areas where assumption replaces clarity. This episode is both a guide for newcomers finding their footing, and a reflection for experienced kinksters on how we welcome, teach, and protect the culture we’re part of.

Whether you’re crossing the threshold for the first time, or holding the door open for someone else, this episode is about making that transition safer, kinder, and more human.
