Lately, social media has been all about praise kink. If you are a ‘good girl’ like I am, then you might relate to what I am about to tell you. The art of talking dirty is laced with creativity – as long as you can be creative with your dirty talking, you can rest assured that it might just be the best sex of your life.
And who doesn’t want to have the best sex of their lives? And trust me, praise kinks are much more than just your usual dirty conversations. So let’s dive in and find out what this kink is all about!
Exploring Praise Kinks: What Is A Praise Kink?

For most Millenials asking ‘what is a praise kink’ is perhaps the more relatable part of this article. Praise Kink is basically your good ol’ “affirmation play,” better known as good girl kink! It usually revolves around the dominant partner’s kind words, compliments, and other praises for the submissive partner in a relationship.
If you can already relate to what I am saying, let me tell you that you are kinky, and you know it…and that too about praises! However, this glorified kink is not about ‘including praises’ – it’s about focussing on the conversations or, better, interactions.
It might seem a bit over-the-top if you aren’t turned on by praises. But that’s so true about any kink – if it doesn’t float your boat, there’s no guarantee that the same won’t float my boat.
The Psychology Behind Praise Kink: What’s Inside Your Head?

Your usual praise kink definition will tell about the term and what it means in a modern context, but what’s the psychology behind all of these? Obviously, it feels good when your partner values you and says kind words to you. And not just your partner – even at work or school, when your superior appreciates you, it feels good.
But when you have praise kink, the ‘good feeling’ transforms into a sexually charged feeling of euphoria.
While praising someone normally, it is obvious that you will focus on their talents or even skills. Similarly, while you are trying out praise kink, you will find yourself focussing on specific behavior, skill, or even in some cases, body parts!
It can appear to be a little similar to body worship, but then again, body worshipping is all about the submissive worshipping the dominant’s body. If you are feeling a little creative, you can also focus on someone’s value – your partner is not just good at oral, but he is the sort of guy who works hard for perfection…geddit?
It almost doesn’t come as a surprise that there exists an overlap of sorts if you have a praise kink and a desire to please. Additionally, praise-earning activities can show your partner how much you care.
The Discomfort And Embarrassment: Struggling To Receive A Compliment?

If I ask anyone to define praise kink on the internet, I will definitely receive a whole lot of engagement – but what about those darker parts of this kink? Let’s talk about them. At some point, several of us had struggled when it came to receiving a compliment or in general kindness.
But the ones afflicted with praise fetish, isn’t it an appealing embarrassment of sorts, just like you might find tickling enjoyable and uncomfortable at the same time? But, of course, it’s also a possibility that, more than an embarrassment, some of you might undergo feelings close to those of humiliation. Then erotic humiliation is also a thing!
Praise kinks could be an easy extension of erotic humiliation. However, discomfort doesn’t originate from rudeness or even harsh words. But in fact, it originates from the inability to accept those words.
Remember that many people out there can be masochistic, physically or emotionally. Isn’t there something so taboo about feelings of discomfort? Additionally, you might also take pride in your handling this discomfort – an element familiar to BDSM lovers, I assume?
