Mistress Blunt interviews Psychoanalyst Dr. Avgi Saketopoulou on Consent, Risk, & Trauma

Mistress Blunt and Dr. Avgi Saketopoulou meet for a deep dive into how BDSM intersects psychoanalytic theory of consent and sexuality. Our conversation touches upon our capacity for living with but not healing from trauma, the potential of BDSM play to revisit our emotional wounds, psychological vulnerability on both sides of D/s dynamics, what edge play reveals about our existing frameworks for consent, the need to risk intimacy and negotiate trust to achieve transformative states of overwhelm, the inadequacy of legal systems and Western schools of thought to resolve questions of desire and identity, witchcraft, harm reduction, and more.
