BDSM is one of the most commonly known kink. It stands for Bondage, discipline, dominance and submission, sadism and masochism. BDSM can involve tying up a partner or being tied up. Handcuffs might be involved. The sadism and masochism come into play when pain is intentionally inflicted or received for sexual pleasure. The point of it is to put one person in a position of power (the domme) and one person in the position of submission. Many other types of kinks fall under the BDSM umbrella.
