Kink educator and YouTuber Evie Lupine has completed our CAGE Kinky Proust Questionnaire, a brand new feature in THE CAGE Magazine!  Read about Evie's thoughts and experiences in kink, fetish, and BDSM here.

The original Proust Questionnaire was a series of questions answered by the French writer Marcel Proust and included in a "confessional album", a parlour game popular among Victorians. You may have seen variations of The Proust Questionnaire on the American television series, Inside The Actors Studio, or in the back pages of Vanity Fair Magazine. THE CAGE kinky version is designed to reveal something of the subject's personality and relationship with kink, fetish, and BDSM.

Find THE CAGE Kinky Proust Questionnaire exclusively in THE CAGE Magazine.

Thanks to Evie for participating!  Keep your eye out for future editions of THE CAGE Kinky Proust Questionnaire featuring people of note in the world of BDSM.

We all have boundaries and our D/s relationships are no exception. Kink and human relationships can get messy, particularly when an interest in a kinky activity may not match up to how the real thing actually feels. In the heat of the moment we can push past what we feel comfortable doing, finding ourselves in unchartered territory. Boundaries can be crossed intentionally, but for many kinksters, crossing a boundary can happen without harmful intent. It can be difficult, but there is a way to move forward.

Our latest CAGE Magazine article looks at how to manage a crossed boundary including how to process what happened, how to discuss it productively with your partner, and how to prevent it from happening in the future. Check out When a Boundary is Crossed in Your D/s Dynamic inside THE CAGE Magazine.
