Katie Krop's Bio

I first got interested in BDSM in 2012 and joined the Adelaide scene in 2014.

I identify as a Bisexual female switch.

I have grown up in Adelaide, SA my whole life.

I have an autoimmune and chronic pain disorder that has impacted my life in a lot of ways, but this has just made my BDSM journey more meaningful, taught me a lot about myself and my will power.

I have really enjoyed showing people I have met in the scene with disabilities how they can still be involved in the scene and with some small adjustments, they can still have a great time.

I am a big believer in being who you are and not hiding your light for anybody.

Don't spend one minute of your life living to please others.

I'm no master if the universe; gods gift to the world and I've never pretended to be an expert; I'm just a normal BDSM community member.

I'm just somebody who wants to impart some information I wish I knew before I entered the scene and a bit more if I can.

My hope is that with this blog I can dispel some common BDSM myths, give some information and help to people interested in BDSM.
