If your idea of bondage, domination and sadomasochism comes from the painful-to-watch abuse scenes in such movies as Pulp Fiction and 50 Shades of Grey, Contessa Alura would like to, well, disabuse you.
“BDSM is not about wailing on each other with a flogger,” explains Alura, a self-described professional dominatrix with a ready smile and an approachable, lady-next-door vibe. “It’s about establishing a connection between you and the other person. People think it’s all about the pain, but that’s not it at all. It’s about the pleasure.”
