Fox News recoils at the idea of pup play—but we're looking closer. In this episode of Taboo Science, we dive into the fascinating subculture of humans who enjoy roleplaying as puppies. We'll explore the origins of this kink, from post-WWII leather culture to the rise of online pup communities, and learn what draws people to don a pup hood and bark. Kink researcher Dr. Liam Wignall and sex educator and pup play enthusiast Pup Amp share insights on the gear, the headspace, and the joys and challenges of being a pup. We also tackle the stigma and misconceptions surrounding this kink, and why it's important to approach it with an open mind. So, sit, stay, and listen up—this episode will satisfy your curiosity about the world of pup play, and maybe even inspire you to unleash your own inner puppy.See citations and a transcript here: <a href="https://www.tabooscience.show/042-pupplay/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.tabooscience.show/042-pupplay/</a>Resources from Dr. Liam Wignall:<ul><li>His book, Kinky In The Digital Age: <a href="https://global.oup.com/academic/product/kinky-in-the-digital-age-9780197503195?cc=us&lang=en&" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://global.oup.com/academic/product/kinky-in-the-digital-age-9780197503195?cc=us&lang=en&</a></li><li>Faculty page: <a href="https://research.brighton.ac.uk/en/persons/liam-wignall" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://research.brighton.ac.uk/en/persons/liam-wignall</a></li></ul> Resources from Amp Somers:<ul><li>Website: <a href="https://www.wattsthesafeword.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.wattsthesafeword.com/</a></li><li>YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@WattsTheSafeword" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@WattsTheSafeword</a></li><li>Twitch: <a href="https://www.twitch.tv/WattstheSafeWord" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.twitch.tv/WattstheSafeWord</a></li></ul> Need music for a project?
