You may broaden your knowledge about BDSM through a variety of features on FetLife.com; the search box, a person's profile, groups, activity feed and the writing section. Let us now look at these features one after the other and how you can use them to learn:

• The Search Box: You can use the search box to search topics that interest you. Examples of topics that can be searched using the search box are: usernames (called Kinksters), groups for every kink imaginable such as munch groups, fetishes, events, cons, play parties, munches and the likes and locations.

However, there are topics you can not find in the search box. They include: user stats (height, weight, location, fetish commonalities, other personal ads information), group discussion thread topics, pictures and videos.

• A Person's Profile: This has a way of telling you a lot about what a person enjoys, how much experience they have and the groups they have participated in. You may now use their status feed to read what they are currently commenting on, follow their sites all over the web and see what events they are planning on attending. Before you realize it, you have learnt so much by just going through a person's profile.
• Activity Feed: This is the Fetlife home page once you are logged in. You can update it with your status or leave short comments about your kink lifestyle at the top. It also shows everything your friends are doing which you can learn from. However, you have the option to filter what appears on your activity feed using the feature on the left-hand side.
• Groups: This is the best feature  for finding information on  FetLife. They are like individual forums with each of them run by members of FetLife. 

Each group has an about page and a separate discussion thread with roles attached. Ensure you read them before making a post so you do not make an offensive post to the group. 

• The Writing Section: Keeping a journal on FetLife gives you an opportunity to express your opinions and help you learn from others when they comment on what you have written.

• Are There More Men Than Women On FetLife?

According to Baku, "…we have an unconventionally large number of women on the site. The majority of dating sites have under five to 10 per cent women, but we have a ratio of almost 50-50. Or let’s say 40-50, when I put in the genderqueer, male-to-female and female-to-male people.”

In spite of its flaws, FetLife still serves as one of the most reliable platforms for kink and BDSM lovers to socialize, bond and learn from each other. For people who are termed 'odd' in the society, the relevance of a community like this can ever be overemphasized. We hope you follow our tips and have a nice time being a part of the FetLife community.
