Kinky Talk: Beyond Vanilla - redefining love and relationships through kink

This Kinky Talk is part of the official Fetish @ Pride Amsterdam program.

In this open and accessible session (in Dutch and/or English), we explore how kink, BDSM, and fetish relationships challenge and expand traditional ideas of love, connection, and trust. From power dynamics to polyamory, from leather legacies to modern consent culture — we’ll talk honestly and lightly about serious topics. Whether you’re curious, experienced, or somewhere in between, join us for an introduction to a world where communication, boundaries, and pride redefine what relationships can be.The evening is hosted by Hans West (kink-aware therapist) and Adalberto (engaged kinkster & Mr International Rubber 2020), founders of The Kinky Talks (www.kinkytalks.nl) with 60 online and in-person talks and masterclasses since 2020, to empower people through respect, fun, open-mindedness, and responsibility.
