Frequently Asked Questions
-Q: What is BDSM/Fetish?
-A: BDSM (which stands for “Bondage/Discipline, Dominance/submission, *Sadism/Masochism”) is a Lifestyle based on the safe, sane, and consensual exploration of power dynamics and new sensory experiences. Fetish play focuses on any area of fascination that a person has for a particular object, persona, sensation, or body part. Examples of fetish play could be anything from foot fetish to messy food play. We are all about making fantasies a reality here! Take a look around on our website to learn more about the many different types of sessions that are possible here. *Please note that we engage in consensual BDSM only. We do not engage in any sadism.
-Q: If I don’t want any pain, is BDSM still something I can try?
-A: Absolutely! The world of BDSM is such a wide one, and there are experiences along a spectrum ranging from soft and sensual Domination to corruption and control and any combination therein or in between! We have a variety of Lifestyle Mistresses at our facility at any given time so that we are prepared to offer a range of different styles of Domination.
