When you hear the words "vanilla sex", what do you think of? Seems like a random term to you? Some think that it is not something interesting, rather boring and practiced by people of certain age groups. But, you are still very far from the truth!
"The word vanilla is used in the kink community as a way to distinguish regular sex from kinky, fetishistic, or BDSM environments (Refers to a range of sexual preferences generally related to the pleasure of physical control, psychological control, and /or pain," says Sarah Melancon, sexologist for SexToyCollective. "Adding this term is important because it helps differentiate what sex looks like to different people," she explains.
"People who practice vanilla sex don't really call it that, they just call it sex," says Melancon.
