One thing I wanted to say is that getting kinky and exploring is ok as long as BOTH parties involved are comfortable with it.

I hear about women (and men) agreeing to do something kinky just to please their partner but it is not really something they want to do and they feel bad about themselves afterward and regret doing it.

Never just "give in" to please your partner, make sure it is within your comfort zone before you agree to try new things.

That's true. Is there any particular reason why you feel you need to state that?

I guess I just stated that one must be comfortable with it because there are some who would read and think that they "have to" do something to please their partner, whether they want to or not.

I have never done anything in the past that I was not comfortable with but I do have friends who have done things just to please their partner and they felt bad about themselves afterward.

I think the word comfortable is too confining. If you only stay in your comfort zone you will never discover many joys and life experiences.

Something may not appeal to me but it is something that my wife enjoys. For example, shopping. Let's say she wanted to pee on me. Not really my cup of tea, but I'll give it a try. If it's something that is important to her and does not harm me, I should be happy to give her that gift.

Comfortable isn't the word. . .

Makes more sense if everyone involved decides on his/her limits. For example, I won't do water sports. That makes everything else up for grabs. New things can be tried without having nagging fears going on in the background.
