AltSex & BDSM resource

Today I attended a very educational seminar abour BDSM, specifically therapy with BDSM couples and how alternative sex (alt.sex) can potentially be used for therapeutic purposes. I am not recommending this, it could have the opposite effects if done carelessly, but for some people who express their experiences in a corporeal way, there is potential to do this.

There are articles that I am searching for that I will post when I find them to shed some light on how people have used alt.sex practices to experience catharsis about a specific issue.

A piece of my most appreciated knowledge was the practice of after care that is taught and regularly practiced in this community. Not being a part of it, as an outsider only peeking through the corner of one window, I am happy to learn that people participating in a BDSM relationship or lifestyle or activities plan for emotional support and care after they have participated in a session of alt.sex or play in order to emotionally process and nurture and recover ones self from the intense experience they have just undergone. This is a beautiful and healthy practice.

This website is not about the therapeutic benefits of BDSM, it is a well organized extensive resource for those seeking more knowledge and a community surrounding alternative sexual practices. Because of the marginalized nature of BDSM, it is a very appropriate resource for this blog to host. I hope this serves as good personal resource, or educational resource, or something to recommend to a friend.

I wish you all Safe and Free Sexual sexpression and practice!!
