So my first little adventure into kink dating site reviews had me nervous but I'm an open minded girl! Following a very interesting brunch conversation with the gals, I decided to check out Fetish.com and see how it went.
As it turns out, it's exactly what I'd hoped! Honestly it instantly took away any nervous feelings I had for being new to the kinky scene.
What is Fetish.com and who is it for?
What I learned is that this is more than just a dating site. It's also about creating a cool online space for the BDSM, kink, and fetish community — including tons of learning resources for people like me who are just starting to check things out!
When I was checking out the Fetish.com app and website, I never felt like I was in over my head which was refreshing.
Is Fetish.com legit to use?
Fetish.com felt updated, welcoming, and had really cute branding. The sign up process is simple but that also meant almost no verification barriers. Even though my experience felt pretty legit, be extra cautious!
