Power play and BDSM discussion can be intimidating to have with your partner or partners. City Speak’s host, Marlena Harvey, addressed these topics in the second episode of the Sex and Sexuality podcast series. 

Tristan Hartley and Laurel Marks, two City College counseling interns, discussed their most recent Taboo Topics Zoom meeting, which focused on power play and how to use it in the bedroom in a healthy way. They also discussed how to talk with your partner about these topics. 

“Communication is the most important tool in the bedroom,” Hartley said.
