Welcome to our glossary! We believe BDSM is customizable. There's no one size fits all for relationships, sex, or kink. Here you can explore, share, and learn about the many ways these things are practiced.

Our Definition

the practice of showing reverence for a specific part of another person's body usually through physical and sexual touch.

Can be performed by either dominant or submissive parties, or without elements of power-exchange.

Common Practices & Experiences

Everyone is different - you'll see this repeated throughout our website and glossary.
Common body worship practices include, but certainly aren't limited to:
  • Foot Worship
  • Genital Worship
  • Words of Praise/affirmation
  • Licking, sucking, and kissing
  • Breast Worship
  • Whole body Worship

"Bob performs fellatio with such intensity and fervor that he considers it cock worship"

"Robin is a dominant who loves to shower their submissive's breasts with licks and kisses, and verbal praises."
"Ethel loves it when her submissive worships her feet."

We want your take!

Help us improve the glossary! We're looking for:

  • Anecdotes for kinks in practice, tell us about a scene or an interaction that you feel best illustrates an entry
  • Suggestions for topics to add
  • Short stories to help illustrate each glossary entry - true or fictional stories that demonstrate a topic. (1 page, tops!)
  • Folks who disagree - tell us why we're wrong!

We want to illustrate as many sides of kink as we can to both normalize kink, sexuality, and the diversity within it all, and we can't do that alone!
