Praise Kink

When someone gets sexual pleasure from receiving praise, it's known as a praise kink. Usually, the dominant or top gives their submissive or bottom a lot of praise, affirmation, and lovely words. On the other end of the spectrum, a degrading kink is a praising kink.

You may be drawn to praise kink if words of affirmation are your primary love language. Indeed, most people enjoy hearing affirmations, particularly when having sex. However, not everyone experiences arousal or sexual pleasure when they read or hear text messages that say things like, "That feels amazing." Hold on to that," or "You look so hot when you're kneeling for me." Similarly, not all forms of praise must be expressed verbally. For someone with a praise kink, a simple forehead kiss or pat can occasionally trigger a surge of strong sexual impulses. Ultimately, everyone enjoys praise, but not everyone finds it particularly appealing.

Other names for praise kink include "affirmation play" and good girl/boy/pet kink.

The dominant, or top, in a praise kink power dynamic, delivers their subordinate, or bottom, flattering remarks, affirmation, or praise that makes them feel hot and uncomfortable.

Many people find praise kink appealing. A praising kink might make you feel good about yourself sexually if you're service-oriented, feel inadequate, or use words of affirmation as your primary love language. It uses simple sexually suggestive words and phrases that, when given in a D/s dynamic, make the recipient feel erotic and frequently orgasmic. The important thing is that these magic words must always be authentic. Observe your partner's abilities and conduct if unsure where to begin. Typical praising kink expressions include "Yes, just like that, good job," "What a good little x you are," and "Now do x, yes, that's it."

For inquisitive newbie kinksters, praise kink might be a wonderful place to start because it's frequently regarded as a softer, gentler form of BDSM. Who doesn't enjoy praise, after all? In particular, when there is a chance to escape it. Talking to your partner about the words and phrases that turn you on and off is crucial. Praise is not always a surefire way to get what you want.
