edge play
A group of practices that can do real harm if they go wrong, among them breath restriction, blood, needles, knives, fire and electricity. The name marks the risk, not how serious anybody is.
Example Their profile lists needles as a hard limit and wax as something they are into.
What it is not Not a dare, and not a measure of commitment. It is also not edging, which is about holding somebody near orgasm and is a different thing with a similar name.

How each entry is written
Each entry says what the term means on KinkEU, gives one example of how it is used, and says what it is not when it is often confused with something else. A role is never a gender, so no entry says who holds it. An entry explains a word. It is not a guide to doing anything.
The same words in the app
These are the definitions the app shows when you tap a term. They are written once, so the meaning here and the meaning on a profile are always the same.
