The Kinky Geeks discuss how kink IRL (“in real life” to the non-geeky) can often have painful consequences. Whether it’s being outed and doxed, being fired for personal details found online, slut shaming, or the Dr. McJudgersons we meet when showing up for appointments with bruises or asking for testing. We believe that what goes on in the privacy of our own homes or dungeons should never be cause to lose your job or be shunned from society. Unfortunately, much of society seems keen to use that against the kinky, or any alternative sexuality like being non-monogamous for that matter. We get all fired up about the how difficult it is to get a doctor that is understanding, or even educated enough about we do, to give adequate care without judgment. From finding your Fetlife profile to finding your online RSVP to a kinky party, we are always at risk of being painfully outed. Come geek out with us about kink IRL with the Kinky Geeks!
