There's a lot of discussion about consent and bodily autonomy in this episode, but amongst all the trash, I do find a bit of treasure! Another possible kink that EL James actually has, and therefor writes about much better than just about anything else in the books. Exciting! Listen on to find out what that kink is.

Also, a small note about audio quality: I think this episode accidentally got recorded on my laptop's built in mic instead of my usual podcasting mic, so the quality of the sound is lower than usual. However, I think you can still hear what I'm saying clearly enough that I didn't feel it necessary to re-record the whole thing. So just keep that in mind going into this episode!

Content warnings: nonconsensual marks, controlling behavior, misuse of the term "hard limit", parentifying the woman in a romantic relationship, infantilization of a female character, childhood trauma, anti-drug user slur, anti-sex worker slur, unresolved trauma and its effects on relationships.
