In this episode ajfs71 is joined by Recon member Kingonjaguar and they talk about BDSM contracts and the law (specifically US Law). They talk about the nuances of making a BDSM contract with a partner, and whether or not it will actually hold up in a legal court of law, and the potential challenges you could face if it doesn’t. Have you thought about making a BDSM contract with a play partner or with your own partner? Hope you enjoy the episode.
