Midori joins us to discuss Japanese BDSM &amp; why recognizing fundamental differences in various cultures around the world is the key to understanding the how &amp; why behind kink.  We talk about differences in consent &amp; safety, how differing social norms &amp; hierarchies influence our collective play styles, and how these insights can enhance our own relationships. Most of us aren’t great at recognizing our way isn’t the only way. But even if you plan on never venturing outside your local BDSM community, a global perspective can broaden your understanding of the psychology behind what we all do, no matter where we do it.     Guest Bio – Midori “Your Fairy God-Auntie of Kink. Exploding Expectations. Challenging Conventions.” Trailblazing educator, sexologist, artist, and irritant to banality, Midori founded Rope Dojo and ForteFemme: Women’s Dominance Intensive. She penned the first English instruction book on Shibari, “Seductive Art of Japanese Bondage” in 2001, paving the way for the popularity of rope. Dan Savage calls her the “Super Nova of Kink,” while others affectionately call her Auntie Midori for her cool, tell-it-like-it-is, funny, reality-based teaching.
