Naturally Naughty: “What does BDSM mean to you and why did you decide to try it?”
Alexandra: "For me, BDSM was a way to make our relationship more exciting. I love trying new things and simply asked Andi if he'd be open to it. I think BDSM gives us the chance to rediscover ourselves and build a deeper connection."
Andi: "I was rather cautious at first, but curious. For me, BDSM means being able to open up without being judged and express my own fantasies. It's not just about what happens, but about the trust we build in the process."
Naturally Naughty: “How did you prepare for your first BDSM experiences?”
Alexandra: "I read a lot and watched videos. It was important to me that we felt safe, so we talked about ' safe words ' and made a little checklist. After all, it should be fun without making anyone feel uncomfortable."
Andi: "Alexandra is very thorough, and that gave me confidence. I never would have thought there would be so much to consider, but the preparation allowed us both to start more relaxed."
Naturally Naughty: “What tips do you have for couples who want to try BDSM?”
Alexandra: "Patience and communication! You shouldn't expect everything to go perfectly right away. We started small—with blindfolds and light bondage games . It's important that both partners feel comfortable and are honest with each other."
Andi: "Yes, and talk openly about it afterward. After each session, we talk about what we liked and what we didn't. This helps us figure out what we want to do differently next time."
Naturally Naughty: “What role does communication play for you, and how do you talk about your preferences and boundaries ?”
Alexandra: "Communication is everything to me. Without clear words, something as intense as BDSM can quickly go wrong. We use the traffic light technique : Green means everything's okay, yellow means slow down, and red means stop. This way, we can trust each other and know that no one has to push their boundaries."
Andi: "At first, I found it difficult to talk about such intimate details, but Alexandra encouraged me. Now it's become normal for us to talk about our desires and boundaries."
Naturally Naughty: “How important are safety and clear boundaries to you in BDSM?”
Alexandra: "Extremely important. Without clear rules, BDSM can quickly become uncomfortable. We've set ourselves a few absolute 'no's' that we respect, and we always have first aid supplies on hand. It's about feeling comfortable and not having to be afraid."
Andi: "Exactly, that also gives me the confidence to embrace the experience. With these safety precautions, I can be much more relaxed and simply enjoy myself."
Naturally Naughty: “What were your expectations before your first BDSM session, and how was the experience?”
Alexandra: "I was super excited and imagined all sorts of things! It was completely different, much more intense and emotional at the same time. You feel much closer than with 'normal' sex."
Andi: "I was nervous, but it was exciting to actually experience my fantasies. It was more than just the physical aspect; I felt much more connected to Alexandra afterwards."
Naturally Naughty: “What were your first impressions of the BDSM scene, and how did you feel connected to it?”
Alexandra: "I honestly had some preconceptions, but the scene is so much more diverse than I thought. I've met many people online who are open and respectful. There's no pressure, just acceptance."
Andi: "The scene was a bit strange to me at first, but Alexandra showed me a lot. We now appreciate the openness and diversity of the people we met."
Naturally Naughty: “How has BDSM changed or enriched your relationship?”
Alexandra: "It's definitely brought us closer together. We understand each other on a deeper level and can talk about anything. BDSM has helped me understand Andi better, and it's made us stronger as a couple."
Andi: "It's made me more open, and I've learned a lot about my own desires. Our relationship has gained depth through BDSM, and I really appreciate that."
Alexandra and Andi gave us honest and personal insights into their experiences. Their tips and insights offer valuable guidance for couples considering trying BDSM. BDSM can enrich a relationship if both partners are willing to communicate openly and trust each other.
