Body Writing in BDSM: A Creative Way to Express Your Kink

Body writing is a playful and creative way to explore each other’s bodies and express your desires. It can add a new level of excitement and anticipation as you slowly reveal each word or image.

What is Body Writing?

Body writing is a fun and intimate activity where one partner writes or draws on the other’s body. This can be done with body-safe markers or paints that are easy to wash off. The words or drawings can be anything from sweet nothings and love messages to explicit instructions or even naughty doodles.

The act of writing on the body can be a form of dominance and submission, where the dominant partner asserts control by marking the submissive partner. It can also be a way to humiliate or objectify the submissive in a consensual and negotiated manner.

How Can Body Writing Enhance the BDSM Experience?

Body writing can really spice up the BDSM experience. For those who enjoy the psychological thrill of humiliation, having degrading words or phrases written on their body can be a powerful tool for emotional play. Body writing can be a way to claim territory, marking a submissive as belonging to their dominant partner, which can be a turn-on for both. It allows for creativity and personalization. You can write specific instructions, desires, or even create a target for where you want your partner to focus their attention.

Body writing can also be used for positive affirmations, writing things that the submissive loves about themselves or words of praise from the dominant. The visual aspect of seeing the words or drawings on the skin can be a strong arousal factor and add to the visual memories of the scene.

Tools for Body Writing

Body Paints and Markers: Look for body paints, markers, and pens marketed as “non-toxic” and “washable.” Popular brands like Crayola and BIC make great options. These will typically wash away easily with soap and water.

Makeup: Certain makeup products like liquid lipstick, eyeliner, and liquid foundation can also work. Just be sure to spot test first in case of irritation. And if the writing is in a more intimate area, use products that are less likely to cause infections.

Henna: Henna paste creates temporary “tattoos” and can last 1-3 weeks on skin. This is an awesome option for creating intricate designs or longer lasting messages.

Glitter Gels: For sparkly writing, try a peel-off glitter gel. Apply to skin and let dry before peeling off to reveal a glittery imprint behind.

How to Remove Ink?

To remove ink from body writing, especially if you’ve used something like a permanent marker, here are some methods you might find helpful:

  • Soap and Water: Start with the simplest method. Use a good lather of soap and warm water to scrub the area gently.
  • Makeup Remover: Makeup remover is designed to remove products from your skin and can be effective for ink as well.
