twitchelvi -> RE: The Vanillarisation of Kink? (1/26/2015 12:59:29 AM)

I saw the topic and after looking thought I should throw 2 cents in there. Is kink being vanillarised? That would depend on the definition you use for kink or vanilla. I think that generally what is considered vanilla would be most anything "mainstream" and kink anything "out of the ordinary".
Depending on who you are talking with some people will tell you that people who watch porn are kinky or perverted, oral sex is kinky or perverted, etc., etc. So the phrase "vanillarisation of kink" would just mean that a lot of acts most viewed as "kinky" at one time are now becoming acceptable to mainstream society. Not really good or bad, but I guess you can find a bit of positive in a couple of things there. First would be that people wouldn't be labeling or looking down on others for act that many of us already consider normal. Second, if kinky is becoming normal, than boundaries will be stretched more, allowing many to feel comfortable exploring further.
