YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Fifty Shades trilogy has sold well more than 100 million copies worldwide, and now it has been made into a $40-million movie. Kink may be the “new normal” for hot sex, but BDSM and other fetishistic play has a long history.

Romance novels aside, more people might interested in kink than you'd think—a 2009 study found that both men and women prefer fantasies of being dominated, rather than dominating others.
