This week we’re talking about BDSM mentors and protectors: what they are, whether they’re necessary, and what to consider if you choose to find one or become one.
In this episode:
- This week’s sponsor is Play, the first ever kink lifestyle brand bringing you Playboxes of kinky fuckery! Use code lovingbdsm and save!
- We discussed protectors with Pixie and Andrew on Kink Craft (several months ago) but we wanted to elaborate on our own episode and look at both mentors and protectors.
- A mentor is different from a protector
- A mentor guides and teaches. Can be for Dom or sub
- A protector is kind of a Dom-light without the full responsibility of a D/s agreement
- There are arguments for and against either
- Definitely not required
- It must be consensual, and you must have parameters and boundaries.
- Choosing a mentor or protector is a lot like choosing a partner – compatibility, communication, a certain amount of trust and faith
