Please join us for episode 48 of Open Deeply with the legendary kink expert, Midori, as we explore pleasure within BDSM. We start off the interview discussing her Women's Dominance Weekend Intensive called Forte Femme in which her teachings go to the core of BDSM and even takes a step beyond kink to include profound truths about human sexuality and power that impact our daily lives. Then Midori goes on to stress the importance of finding out the tells our partner has within a BDSM scene that reveal whether or not they are happy. Our tells in the sub role are often easy to determine, but what about the Domme role? That's way harder to define! Midori also goes over some of her pet peeves within BDSM and what ideas within BDSM that she might feel are bullshit or toxic. Finally, Midori tells us a out her performance art that is a delicious combination of her Japanese roots, BDSM, social commentary, and generally mind fuckery. This is an incredibly fun and thought-provoking episode, so we hope you join us as we once again, dare to Open Deeply. Midori's Bio: Trailblazing educator, artist, and irritant to banality, Midori teaches, coaches, and consults on alternative sexuality, BDSM, Shibari cultural competency, and joyful empowerment through thoughtful kink. Along with founding ForteFemme Women's Intensive in 2004 and Rope Dojo in 2002,, Midori is known for having penned the first English instruction book on Shibari, “Seductive Art of Japanese Bondage” in 2001, paving the way for the popularity of rope today. She works closely coaching individuals as well as therapists and other helping professionals as Co-Director of Kink Informed Certification for Sexual Health Alliance.

Midori joins us to discuss Japanese BDSM & why recognizing fundamental differences in various cultures around the world is the key to understanding the how & why behind kink.  We talk about differences in consent & safety, how differing social norms & hierarchies influence our collective play styles, and how these insights can enhance our own relationships. Most of us aren't great at recognizing our way isn't the only way. But even if you plan on never venturing outside your local BDSM community, a global perspective can broaden your understanding of the psychology behind what we all do, no matter where we do it.     Guest Bio – Midori “Your Fairy God-Auntie of Kink.

“The BDSM Test” is infamous in the kink community and beyond. Since 2014, thousands have proudly posted results like a badge of honor on FetLife profiles. We use it as a roadmap, educational tool, and kink negotiation starter. It's even gone vanilla as the focus of social media challenges and pop magazine writeups. But is this kink subculture phenomenon all it's cracked up to be? While some find it helpful & validating, many say it's othering, stigmatizing, and normalizes red-flag behavior disguised as “kink.” Midori & kinky therapist Joe Zarate-Sanderlin join us on ep 192 to deconstruct the BDSM test question by question + explore its wider impact. Why don't we scrutinize it the same way vet other educational sources? Who wrote this kink test, why, and what are they using the massive amount of data they're collecting about our deviant desires for? Turns out, it's a bit of a mystery…   Midori Bio “Your Fairy God-Auntie of Kink. Exploding Expectations.

Kink trailblazer Midori joins us for episode 165. Now at the helm of the first Kink Informed Professionals Certification of its kind, Midori recently partnered with the Sexual Health Alliance to bridge the gap between BDSM and mental health/care professions. Once pathologized, kink has recently become a serious area of professional interest and study. In this conversation, Midori tells us how myths from popular culture and those perpetrated by the BDSM community itself have contributed to bias in care professions. We pinpoint why the mental health field is beginning to see BDSM as a healthy outlet for creativity, resilience, and valid erotic expression. We also touch on the ways abuse hides within kink and how stigma around that affects our relationships with therapists, doctors, social workers, attorneys, and other care professionals we come into contact with.  ____________________________________ --Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com --To support American Sex podcast, please visit http://patreon.com/americansex (plus you'll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!) --Get friendly with us on Twitter at @AmericanSexPod or visit sunnymegatron.com or americansexpodcast.com --Join our mailing list by visiting http://sunnymegatron.com/newsletter               Sunny & Ken, xo! ____________________________________  Episode 164 Links  Kink Informed Certification - Sexual Health Alliance https://sexualhealthalliance.com/kink-informed-certification-program Midori Twitter https://twitter.com/PlanetMidori Midori Instagram https://www.instagram.com/planetmidori/ Midori Newsletter https://www.fhp-inc.com/newsletter Midori class/event calendar http://www.FHP-Inc.com/classes Midori's Patreon https://www.patreon.com/PlanetMidori/ KPACT The Psychological Appeal of BDSM 10/15/2021 https://www.kpact.xyz/product/the-psychological-appeal-of-bdsm/ Consent Dojo w/Midori & Sunny Megatron (free!) 9/14/21 11am PT https://shibaristudy.com/authors/midori Midori History of Shibari (free!) 9/4/21 11am  https://shibaristudy.com/programs/histories-and-cultures-of-shibari Creative Living Coaching and Private Sexological Consultations: ask@planetmidori.com Sex Down South Virtual Conference Fri 9/10-Sun 9/12 https://hopin.com/events/sex-down-south-conference-2021 Open Deeply Podcast http://opendeeplypodcast.com Ken's charity DnD game Monday's 4pm-7pm PT https://www.twitch.tv/thunderpantsacademy American Sex Podcast Discord Community http://bit.ly/discordasp American Sex Podcast subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/americansexpodcast American Sex Podcast Patreon http://patreon.com/americansex   Episode 165 Sponsor, Affiliate & Giveaway Info 30% off ANY SATISFYER when you use this link https://us.satisfyer.com/us/?utm_source=Podcast&utm_medium=SUNNY&utm_campaign=2H AND enter code SUNNY30 at checkout. 30 day free trial of Dipsea Stories when you use code SUNNY http://dipseastories.com/sunny Get 20% off + free shipping at Manscaped.com with code SUNNY http://manscaped.com Get 20% off everything from http://gvibe.com including the limited edition Gbulb with code SUNNY Hot & Healthy Erotic Humiliation recorded class https://gum.co/humiliationclass Prostate Play for Beginners (recorded class) from Sugar Baltimore https://www.sugartheshop.com/prostate-milking-for-beginners.html Sunny & Ken's classes on Kink Academy http://bit.ly/kinkacademyelectric & http://bit.ly/kinkacademyhumiliation 10% off American Sex Podcast & Sunny Megatron merch with code SUNNY (t-shirts, mugs, phone cases & more) http://bit.ly/sunnyshirts 15% off your order at Lovehoney when you use this link http://bit.ly/lovehoney15 (This link can be a little wonky and does not keep tracking cookies.

Rope bondage can be visually stunning. But many of us leave erotic human macrame to the experts because the prospect of doing it ourselves is so intimidating. Do we need specialty rope, impeccable technique, and the confidence to go with it all? No according to Midori! On Ep 150 of American Sex Podcast Midori guides us through rope bondage for beginners with items we all have at home. Learn about safety, get inspiration for scene ideas, and how to have fun with long-distance bondage play. Midori also discusses the cultural origins of Shibari. Is it an honorable ancient Japanese practice like many of the rope enthusiasts claim? Or is there some cultural misappropriation at play? The answer may surprise you. ____________________________________ Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com To support American Sex podcast, please visit patreon.com/americansex (plus you’ll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!)

On ep 126 of American Sex Podcast, Midori teaches us about sensuality and seduction. This pandemic has set the stage for us to revaluate our emotions, reset our intimate motivations, and really examine what it means to be an erotic being. Midori explains why seduction is the art of not just creating desire but also of being desired. She teaches us how to slow down, cultivate our sensuality, and separate it from our typical orgasm goal-oriented approach to sex. Learn how your favorite movies can be a roadmap for seduction, to use your imagination to erotically remote locate with a partner, and the reason why most of us miss that mark when it comes to self-centered vs. collaborative sexual motives. Most importantly, Midori reminds us that you don’t need to be a sexual superstar to be the most important person in your lover’s life.   Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com To support American Sex podcast, please visit patreon.com/americansex (plus you’ll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!)

Midori shares a spectacular personal story at Bawdy - be gentle, it’s her first time! When a mysterious older man begins to ask after her in her small suburban town, nerdy straight A exchange student (and Jane Austin reader) Midori sees an opportunity to escape the overeager teenage boys at her high school, a chance to engage in the fine art of courtship - but just who’s wooing who? She savors long talks over tea with suave dresser Donald at the only espresso-serving cafe in town - conversations about Poetry, Opera, Jazz, Travel, and Mozart - and soon, she crafts her plan. With the help of her 2 best girlfriends, a pair of hand-sewn fishnet stockings and a trip to Planned Parenthood, the night of her sexual rite of adulthood is finally here…um, why do they call it ‘Virginity’ anyway? #Graduation   (Back story on the ‘fucking your head’ comment that Midori makes as she steps up to the microphone: I was wearing a giant Peacock headpiece and a Dark Garden corset for my 12 Year Anniversary shows, and Midori kept cracking egg jokes about the Peacock that I was wearing on my head) This episode of the Bawdy Storytelling podcast is brought to you by Kama Sutra.

What do I do if my partner asks me to do role-play and I'm uncomfortable with being in the spotlight? How does one learn how to do authentic yet sexy role-play? And what about dominance? Can I learn how to tap into my most confident, dominant self (even when I don't feel it in everyday life)? Join us for this playful yet informative episode with world renown sex educator, Midori. We talk about role-play, dominance, outing the awkward, confidence, making negotiation sexy, and more!  We also answer a sex question: I feel like I'm the one who is always initiating sex. How do I get my partner to initiate more often?  About Midori: Dan Savage calls Midori “The Supernova of Kink!” She is an artistic visionary who has touched lives across the globe with her expertise in sexuality, personal fulfillment, and kinky adventures. Using her “head-heart-hands” methodology she facilitates tackling challenging topics and creating space where people are allowed individual self-exploration. Her passion is fully on display in her transformative small group intensives, including Rope Dojo ®, ForteFemme: Women’s Dominance Weekend Intensive, and The Wanted Man intensive with Marcia Baczynski.

Great sex and mind-blowing kink must include clear communication and thorough negotiation. Sometimes, however, the process can seem impersonal and not very sexy. In this episode, Midori teaches us surefire techniques for laying groundwork before a sexy scene that doesn’t feel like negotiation at all. She explains her signature engaged collaborative consent model, gives specific steps for flirtatious negotiation, and offers tips for cultivating “Queen of the Starfish” moments. She also busts myths about what aftercare should entail, explains the brain chemistry behind sub drop and top drop, introduces us to BYOA, and details how to get the aftercare you want whether you’re submissive or dominant. Yes, Doms need aftercare too! This is a must listen for everyone no matter where you are on the kinky spectrum. Sunny & Ken also prepare for their holiday hiatus and a life-changing adventure.  ___________________________________ Submit your BDSM & sex advice questions by email to americansexpodcast@gmail.com To support American Sex podcast, please visit patreon.com/americansex (plus you’ll get all episodes early, secret episodes, bonus stories from guests, on-air shout-outs, stuff in the mail & more!)

Learn how to easily tap into your erotic creativity for roleplay and comfortably step into your sexual dominance. Midori tells us how to balance our “nice guy” and “bad boy” personas for steamy encounters and why channeling our “inner 8 year old” is the key to unlocking our erotic potential. Even if you fall more on the vanilla end of the spectrum or simply want to spice up your romance or flirting style, the gems Midori drops will CHANGE EVERYTHING.
