Caregiver/little

The Caregiver/little dynamic focuses on nurturing, structure, and emotional safety—where one partner offers guidance and support, and the other embraces vulnerability and regression.

Consensual Non-Consent (CNC)

Consensual Non-Consent (CNC) involves pre-negotiated scenes or dynamics where one partner gives permission for another to ignore resistance, creating the illusion of non-consent within clear boundaries.

Dom/sub (D/s)

The D/s dynamic is the foundation of many power exchange relationships—anchored in trust, consent, and erotic polarity.

Egalitarian Power Exchange

Egalitarian dynamics explore kink without a fixed hierarchy—centering on mutual negotiation, balanced power, and shared responsibility in scenes or relationships.

Financial Domination (Findom)

Financial Domination (Findom) is a consensual dynamic where power and submission are expressed through control over money, gifts, or financial decisions.

Mentor/mentee

The Mentor/mentee dynamic is built on guidance, growth, and mutual respect—where one partner supports the other’s development within or beyond kink.

Owner/pet

The Owner/pet dynamic explores devotion, structure, and care through a unique form of power exchange rooted in animal roleplay and affectionate submission.

Primal (Hunter/Prey)

The Primal dynamic taps into raw instinct—where Dominance and submission are expressed through chasing, wrestling, scent, and pure animalistic energy.

Ritual & Protocol

Ritual and protocol dynamics center on formality, structure, and reverence—using intentional behaviors to reinforce power exchange and deepen meaning.

Sadist/masochist

The Sadist/masochist dynamic is rooted in the consensual exchange of pain—one partner enjoys giving it, the other enjoys receiving it, often as a gateway to intense connection.
