OK, so *is* anyone else on here poly/kink-aware?

[madamez]

Or should I just slink off back to Wierdo-net?

I think I am bit dim but I don't understand the question.

Oh my! No i'm not but do tell

Oh I saw a programme on this last week on late night tv.

Yes, but I don't really post about it.

like- fetish????

Is it called Polygamy? Or something like that.

I totally get why it works for some people, and applaude their honesty and their lack of fear of living in an 'alternative' way, but not for me.

I'm a one person woman, and i couldn't live any other way.

Fetish/BDSM/polyamory...
Doggie: no need to go into any details, it just cheers me up to find I'm not the only one on the whole of Mumsnet!

No, am certain each and every person on MN only ever has sex on birthdays and anniversaries, only ever in the missionary position, while thinking of england/respective country....

or not

I was referring to poly obviously.

re: BDSM etc...I've been tied up and slapped in my time. And loved it.

i wish weirdo-net were real madamez...we should start one!

Yes madamez I know what you mean - sometimes as soon as you tell people you're even interested in the subject, it seems they automatically assume you are round the local swingers club every night. So you kind of stop mentioning it.

I'm reasonably aware. I don't tend to talk about Personal Experience, but I will explain Best Practice for most sexual activities, if possible.

Thinking about it, I'm probably better on kink than poly. And given that lots of mums on here struggle with their partners having female friends, or looking at porn, or having a wank, I think you'll struggle to find people who are really poly-friendly, tbh.

huh?

what is poly-aware?

or 'kink-aware'?

i knew what pegging was , but that's only because i read Dan Savage's column.

managed to read it as poly kitchen ware..so er no

I have a friend (in the US) who is very into polyamory. It all sounds extremely time-consuming. No way she could do it if she had kids.

The actual sex she has with her multiple men sounds very vanilla, btw - not at all kinky.

Being kink-aware of course doesn't automatically mean you are poly - or vice versa for that matter. Lots of couples like to experiment with each other only, and equally, the sort of people who are able to embrace a poly lifestyle, i.e. more than one regular sexual partner and/or swapping, may actually be quite boring when it comes down to the "deed" itself.

I suppose I am "kink-aware" but wouldn't like to describe myself as such - or as anything to be honest - I am just me. Family commitments, thin walls, lack of accessible babysitters etc means that these days any "kinkiness" (though I do firmly believe that one wo(mans) "kink" is another's "normality") is more mental than physical !

I have seen some ... pointed? ... use of the word "vanilla" around here. From time to time.

Remember that thread on that person selling 'vintage' Pampers on Ebay for a bomb and that whole discussion about 'adult-baby friendly'?

K, headed back to the 'Are you a ponce?' thread.

No expat, no!
Do not start with the adult baby stuff.

I'm aware but too damn knackered to put anything much into practice.

W/an adult-baby fetish, though, MI, you wouldn't even have to get up out of bed to go to the lav!

You could just use the 'vintage' Pampers.

That was a classic thread.

motherinferior, you sound like me.

Expat, please, I'm begging you - this is like bromide for my libido

Thought poly kink might be a new type of sandwich wrap- apologies.
