What Is American Sex?This award-winning podcast is dedicated to changing America’s dysfunctional relationship with sex. Our sex lives are influenced by everything that makes us US--from our mental health to our relationships, politics, identity, and the shame our culture instills in us and relies on for control. Understanding how these things seep into our bedrooms makes all the kinky, pervy, weird stuff we’re secretly into seem not so weird after all. Hosts, Sunny Megatron & Ken Melvoin-Berg, are acclaimed Sex & BDSM Educators. They also co-created the groundbreaking Showtime Original Series, Sex with Sunny Megatron. Equal parts hilarious and informative, Sunny, Ken & their guests serve up real-talk about kink, polyamory, sexual ethics, and LGBTQIA+ subjects. From practical BDSM & sex tips to discussions about systematic repression of pleasure & sexual empowerment, each topic is approached with a lightheartedness that’s second to none. We believe Kink is Cutomizable™, education is the new punk rock, the personal is political, tinkle-your-pants laughter is an anecdote to sexual shame, and that collectively we can subvert this backward-ass system by finding power in our pleasure.

This BDSM episode is a perfect
primer for those dipping their toes into the kinky pool for the
first time or for experienced kinksters looking for a little
renewed inspiration. Ken & Sunny’s approach to kink is quite
different than what’s typically depicted. Nearly every stereotype,
archetype, and “rule” you thought applied to BDSM is about to be
broken. In this episode Sunny talks with Lexi Sylver of the Seek,
Discover, Create podcast about all things BDSM. They cover: the
roles of a dominant and submissive, how to start communicating and
experimenting with your partner to discover what your kinks are,
tips for playing safely, the importance of consent and safe words,
what “aftercare” is really all about and how it works, the
potentially therapeutic benefits of BDSM play, and more. Get ready
for a new spin on a popular subject!
