Speaking BDSM A Glossary of Terms Used to Describe BDSM

If you’re interested in exploring BDSM (bondage/discipline, domination/submission, sadism/masochism), you’ll need to understand BDSM terms. The glossary below will make it easier for you to parse the technical terminology as well as the not-so-scientific vernacular — aka, slang — you’ll need to speak BDSM.

Aftercare When a scene is over, aftercare is the emotional and physical care that’s administered, usually by a top. Proper aftercare may be used to prevent a drop.

Bottom The person in a scene who follows the orders and receives the sensations.

Breath Play A form of play when one participant controls their breath. This may include choking or holding the breath.
