Why Are People Into That?!
32: Yandy: Puppies
Fetch! Speak! Roll over! This episode is all about people who love to role play as dogs. Sometimes their puppy persona becomes a part of their sexual identity, a way to access innocence, playfulness, and carnal passion. Tina talks to kinky party promoter Yandy of Mythical Events NYC about the best places to buy puppy gear, and what it means to be something other than human for a little while.
