Truro in Cornwall has just been named the BDSM capital of England. Yes, really
Briefly

Truro, a small town in Cornwall, has been declared the "BDSM capital of England" based on recent search analytics from the podcast Talking Kinky. This town has over 3,074 monthly searches for BDSM per 10,000 people, significantly exceeding the national average. This trend reflects a broader societal shift towards accepting BDSM, fostering open dialogue on relationships and autonomy. The study indicates a growing interest in various kinks, including bondage and foot fetishes, particularly in major cities across the UK, indicating an evolving understanding of intimacy.
At its core, BDSM is about trust, respect, and communication - values that should be celebrated, not stigmatised. When practiced responsibly, it can be a powerful way for people to connect and express themselves.
More people are embracing BDSM because society is having more open and informed conversations about relationships, pleasure, and autonomy, which leads to better education and safer practices.
Truro is now the kinkiest place in England, with BDSM being searched over 3,074 times a month per 10,000 people, more than four times the national average.
Research shows some of the UK’s most popular kinks include bondage, giantess, tickling, and wrestling, with feet being the top fetish in London.
