We have a long list of research questions motivating and guiding the project. Here are a few...

What are the differences in types of physical injuries or medical complications for people new to the scene vs. more experienced?

What percentage of kink-involved people experience mental health injuries or complications as a result of engagement in kink scenes?

Does the disclosure/concealment of kink identity affect levels of healthcare satisfaction for kink-involved people?

    and please ask regarding desire for LTRs, and importance of a caring loving & kinky relationship in how it likely offers confidence, hope and less depression/loneliness.

About This Project

Kink-involved people engage in atypical erotic activities such as bondage, rough sex, and fetish activities that might risk injury. However, we know very little about the rate of injury for people who engage in these activities or their healthcare experiences. Patterns of anticipated stigma, delay or avoidance of care, and concealment of kink/BDSM fit the Minority Stress Model; kink-identified people should be considered a sexual minority for the purposes of healthcare.
