Fetish.com Review

Three things here are not what a dating site normally builds. A BDSM personality test, offered before sign-up. A training school, listed as its own destination. And a kinky map, which turns the membership into geography you can browse. Add a magazine and a forum and the proposition is a community with a dating function rather than a dating site with a theme — one of its own headings simply says it is educational.

That education claim is at least backed by visible output: articles on what a rigger is and the responsibility and safety involved, on a domination convention, and on specific practices, published openly rather than behind the login.

Geography is handled properly. City pages exist for London, Leeds, Glasgow and Bristol, for Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, Houston and Miami, and for Toronto, Calgary and Ottawa, so a new member can see local activity before joining.

The search intents are unusually specific: munch buddy, club buddy, play partner, pro-domme session, chosen family. These are relationships the mainstream sites have no field for.

Sign-up is free, two interface languages are offered, and the forum carries threads in Portuguese and Turkish. JavaScript is required and the page explains how to enable it.
