If you’re new to the BDSM lifestyle then “Impact Play” may sound like a very violent and kinky role-playing act, but in fact,` it’s not, and we at the MINTT are going to teach you how to safely participate in impact play so you won’t have any fears about giving it a try!

Hey MINTT WTF is impact play?

Most people probably know what “impact play” is even if they didn’t know that they did. Impact play is the BDSM practice where the ‘dom’ role whips, paddles, flogs, slaps, spanks, punches, or canes the ‘sub’ for sexual pleasure.

Impact Play Sounds Way Too Violent To Be Pleasurable!

While the intensity can vary, impact play can make for an erotic exploration of mixing a bit of pain with pleasure.

Whether you’re doing the whipping, spanking, flogging, or if you’re the one being whipped, spanked, or flogged you will feel sexual pleasure, not just physically, but psychologically as well.

As far as physical pleasure goes, being struck on your booty by a whip, flogged on your upper thighs, or smacked and spanked on other erogenous zones stimulates your skin’s nerve receptors and can trigger a tidal wave of pleasurable endorphins and dopamine’s. Trust me, it sounds very aggressive and violent, but it’s only as aggressive and violent as you and your partner agree upon.

Being whipped or paddled itself may feel amazing to you, but it’ll heighten every pleasurable touch that follows, which leads to an explosive orgasm that will rock your body to its core.

Can Someone Practice Impact Play On Themselves To See If They Like It?

Listen, if you can get yourself off by masturbating then you don’t need a partner whipping you to see if impact play is something you may find enjoyable. All you need are the right props (paddle, flogger, a belt, whips, canes, etc.) to smack your legs or back.

The Do’s & Don’t of Impact Play

It’s very important that you understand the Do’s and Do Not’s of impact play before you start dipping your toes into the kinky waters of this BDSM role playing lifestyle.

The DON’Ts of impact play

We at MINTT want everyone to be safe while enjoying impact play, so let’s start with the Do Not’s just to make sure that everyone participating in impact play is on the same page with each other at all times!

Don’t Forget To Consent: Consent is the most critical component for any BDSM act. Make sure everyone involved is on the same page before the whipping starts!

Don’t Get A Speeding Ticket: At least not at first. The ‘dom’ should start slow so the ‘sub’ can get warmed up to impact play. Just like any amazing sexual encounter, impact play is going to take some time. Start slow and ease your way up.

Don’t Strike Stomachs or Sides: Leave the stomach and sides out of your impact play, unless you are using really light force. Important organs are right under could be damaged, and no one wants to leave a sexually charged flogging session with irreparable damage, or a few nights in the hospital..and think of the awkward conversation you and your partner will have to try to explain what happened to your doctor.

The DO’s of impact play

Now that you’re familiar with all of impact play’s “Do Not’s”, it’s time to focus on the “Do’s” of impact play so that you and your partners can get the most out of this part of the BDSM lifestyle!

Do Get Consent: Make sure the ‘sub’ knows, and is in agreement, that they’re about to be whipped, flogged, paddled, smacked, or spanked before you start any impact play session.

Do Use a Safeword & Safe Gesture: Just like any other kinky act, always make sure that you and your partner agree on both a safe word and safe gesture to use before you begin.

Once again, a safe word & safe gesture represents your desire to stop or slow down when you’re role playing.

Do Discuss Body Marks & Bruises: If you plan on wearing shorts or a skirt the day after participating in impact play then you may want to inform your ‘dom’ to not leave any marking on your thighs where other people may see them.

Do Talk About Boundaries: Make sure your partner knows where on your body you do not want to be smacked, whipped, paddles, caned, etc. If you want to smacked, whipped, and spanked all over them make sure you let your kinkster in crime know that as well so they understand how to best please you.

Do Discuss BDSM Devices To Use: Some people like being whipped, and others prefer being paddled, so make sure that the correct “toys” are going to be involved doing any impact play session.
