These Hilarious Cartoons Explan BDSM for Beginners

They might be animated, but they’re definitely NSFW.

Admit itL you’re curious. Ever wanted to venture into that unknown world of ball gags and whips, but don’t know where to start? Lucky for you, Lessa Millet and Kaye Blegvad have provided your entree to that erotic arena in the gentlest way possible. According to Millet, Slate reports, the pair noticed a lack of approachable information on how to get into BDSM online: “It would always be kind of cheesy or just scary,” she told Slate over email.

The resulting animation, which uses unassuming cartoon animals to explain beginner’s kink and bondage, points out some valuable insight. Our favorite tidbits? Make sure your safe word is something you can easily pronounce, and don’t tie your restraints too tightly—severed limbs aren’t sexy.
