Tell Me, Which Role Do You Prefer? Experiences of Discovery and Interactions Between BDSM Practitioners in The City of Córdoba (Argentina)

Abstract

This article seeks to analyze the (re)production of sexual scripts and role interactions in events where BDSM practices were allowed. In these gatherings, a first division was made among participants by means of adhesive labels with colored borders to differentiate domination roles, submission roles, curious people and switches. From there, I aim to investigate the processes of discovery of BDSM as a category and the construction of roles from erotic experiences, as well as to analyze the (im)possibilities of interaction between people according to the colors of the labels.
