00:00I was very interested in exploring the BDSM lifestyle, particularly as it relates to relationships
00:15between women.
00:17You can Trojan horse good messages sent to your entertainment.
00:23Be sure to look over the boundaries.
00:27So they're going to walk away associating BDSM with consent and with communication and aftercare and support.
00:36And BDSM, if you don't have consent, then it's illegal, you know.
00:40The kink space within, you know, the adult filming community were certainly our greatest pioneers when it came to introducing communication tools and processes to facilitate consent.
01:05Probably the greatest learning that a whole industry has had in the last decade is, oh, what they're doing in the kink space.
01:12We absolutely need to do in the mainstream space.
01:18They're really like, they're like, like really eager.
01:21So today is actually the finale production of Switch, which for those who don't know, is someone who feels equally comfortable being either a dominant or submissive.
01:34Main action.
01:39You'll ask Leanna to sit down on here and you present her with the contract for the party, which includes safe words, boundaries, roles.
01:49You ask her to review and sign off on the role of dominant.
01:53And this course sparks your excitement because, you know, that's what you want to do, but you weren't totally sure from the party invite if that was going to happen.
02:00So this is actually a really good news for you.
02:02Most of our audience haven't watched a lot of kink or BDSM content.
02:07So it's like a great opportunity for us to, without being too PSA or preachy about it, just educate a little bit.
02:14Boundaries, safe words.
02:16Safe words?
02:18Yes, of course.
02:20Don't ask.
02:21Okay.
02:22You're telling her.
02:23It has rules, boundaries, safe words.
02:28See how it's kind of like, you don't have to rush through it.
02:32Making her feel awkward of the pauses is going to show your dominance.
02:38This is how you're playing.
02:40So you need to slow it down a bit.
02:42Got it.
02:43She ain't going nowhere.
02:45Right?
02:46No.
02:47When you play with your toy, you don't rush through it.
02:50She's your toy.
02:52Leanna, come in.
02:54Yes, miss.
02:55Sit down.
02:58Be sure to look over the boundaries, rules, safe words.
03:03Come with me.
03:05Yes, miss.
03:07When I was doing some of my research, I had noticed that a lot of female would be more submissive.
03:13Can I see this one on?
03:14Yes.
03:15I don't think that's true.
03:17I think you can be submissive and dominant.
03:20Okay, everybody.
03:22This is a very consensual BDSM scene.
03:25My general guidance is let's avoid discriminatory or derogatory language as it relates to race, gender, sexual orientation.
03:35This is a very inclusive, positive universe and we want to keep that up.
03:39The only language that I would like us to bring is any words that you all feel comfortable exchanging or calling each other that does not fall into any of the phobic zones.
03:51Bitch, slut are okay.
03:53The word whore, is that okay if that comes up?
03:56I'm not a big fan of the C word.
03:59Okay, well then you know what?
04:01You guys win.
04:02The C word.
04:03Okay.
04:06You know when I use it, I really mean it.
04:08I've been called everything in the book, like literally.
04:11So in terms of additional guidelines for partners, the one thing that you mentioned was no spitting above the neck.
04:18So no face spitting, so no spitting into mouth or on face.
04:21How do you feel about spit in general?
04:24Anywhere.
04:25Okay, and spit as lube is cool if that ends up happening, okay.
04:28Yes, so my clit, everything really.
04:31Just very sensitive to touch, which is why I like playing a sub.
04:34Any light touching or anything like that usually gets me going.
04:37That's really all I need.
04:38If we're going to mess with my clit, just don't be rough with her.
04:40She's amazing.
04:41I can handle rough spanking, choking, slapping.
04:44Okay.
04:45Miss Phillips.
04:47No anal penetration.
04:49No anal penetration.
04:50I already told you my thing.
04:52So we reiterate that again.
04:54Penetrating, opening up the booty.
04:56Booty remains closed.
04:58If you feel the urge to slap my face, which is fine.
05:01Do not bitch slap me, all right?
05:03I don't want to, me falling to the floor is not a good thing.
05:06You slap with this part of your hand right here.
05:09Not, bam, right?
05:11So you're pinching.
05:13You can pinch.
05:14I always say go lighter, and if I want it harder, you'll know.
05:17I'll tell you when you're like, all right, mercy, done.
05:20Got it.
05:22I'm used to using the color system, but it's really hard.
05:25If anything else, you can tell me.
05:27You know, three taps, tell me to stop.
05:29The color system's just like green is for go, yellow is for slow down,
05:33and red's for stop everything.
05:35I try to stay in character as much as possible so we can flow,
05:38but I will also tap, especially if you do go to choke me,
05:42I will tap to tell you like, hey, I need to breathe, stuff like that.
05:46So I can flow with all of that.
05:48And then, of course, everybody's like, you know, out of character.
05:53Anybody has power to say stop, red, cut,
05:56and they all hold the same meaning that we'll immediately stop.
05:59Cool.
06:00Mistress Emma.
06:02We won't be leaving any marks on Emma, but good thing Emma's fully in charge,
06:05so unless Miss Emma wanted marks, take them.
06:07I naturally go up and down like hard, soft.
06:10I'm not hard the entire time.
06:12I don't take injections, so I just take Viagra.
06:14It's not that big for porn, but it does its job.
06:17Yes.
06:19Much for love.
06:20Do you want me to favor the tip of it?
06:22Yeah, perfect.
06:24And is it okay if there's lots of spin and stuff like that?
06:26Yeah, absolutely.
06:28Okay, cool, perfect.
06:30You don't mind just signing off on each other's scene partners
06:32that you have seen what has been written?
06:34BDSM is all about consent.
06:36You're manipulating the nerve endings of the body.
06:39They can feel all different types of sensation.
06:42Number one that everyone thinks of is pain, yes.
06:45For me, when I started BDSM, it was very therapeutic,
06:48and that's pretty common.
06:50I have past trauma,
06:52and I got to be able to use BDSM to take that control,
06:58kind of get it back.
07:00So, they enter a room to find Lauren naked and collared,
07:05lying curled up in a pet bed with a bowl of milk beside her.
07:09Two cams, three audios.
07:11Sounds good.
07:13Common mark.
07:15All right, everybody, I'm going to say what I say
07:16before every sex scene, which is, Godspeed,
07:20have a really good time,
07:22and I'll see you on the other side.
07:24But we will be definitely watching and checking in a lot, okay?
07:27Have a really, really good time.
07:29Action!
07:31It's not about breaking somebody.
07:33It's about helping them get to another, I call it, subspace.
07:37It's better than an orgasm.
07:42One of the biggest misconceptions is that
07:44because of edgier play or rougher play,
07:48that that automatically means that somebody is being victimized
07:52or somebody is being exploited.
07:54There's actually tremendous power from the bottom.
07:58Even though you are kind of giving away, you know,
08:02your control to whomever is topping you,
08:06that's an incredible bond of trust.
08:08Grab herself.
08:11It may look to a layman like, oh, that person is being hurt
08:15or that person is, you know, is not experiencing pleasure,
08:19but it's so far from the truth.
08:22Do you want it harder?
08:24Yes?
08:26There's so much love and affection and care
08:30that goes into the BDSM lifestyle.
08:33Check in while we're pausing, everybody.
08:35Check in while we're pausing, everybody okay?
08:38Lauren, you okay?
08:46I trust everybody I'm working with.
08:49It's just so relaxing that I can kind of just feel free for a bit.
08:54Anybody else want any water or Gatorade or anything of that sort?
08:58Anything that you all would normally do in aftercare, bring it in.
09:02And then we'll push in on everybody giving Lauren care.
09:07That'll be the classic old push in.
09:11Cut.
09:13Great work, everybody. Amazing scene.
09:32Just another day at the office. Hang out. Awesome.
