So there I was, minding my own business when a thought popped into my head (Don't you just hate it when that happens?) and I began wondering if conservatives are kinkier than liberals or the other way around. I hate the very strictly delineated "left/right" description, as I don't think a good part of people really view themselves that way as opposed to being "forced into a box" by statisticians, pollsters, political parties etc. but anyway, the question remained. Obviously there is not a lot of data on this, and how could there be as it's not something that can be scientifically proven, it's totally arbitrary and subjective both in what a "fetish" is, and political affiliation, but here is some information.
One thing to consider in dominant versus submissive roles, is a need for control often reflected in conservative ideology and its adherents. For some conservatives, this may translate to taking on a dominant role in bed, a position defined by exercising control over another. Liberals, on the other hand, are not easily affected by pain, according to a 2017 study of political ideology and personality, and also more flexible, curious and open — the combined effect of which may make liberals more interested in assuming a sexually submissive role and relinquishing power to a dominant partner.
Republicans tend to prefer fantasizing about sex outside of marriage:“infidelity, orgies, swapping, from 70s-style ‘key parties’ to modern-day forms of swinging,”. Republicans reported more voyeuristic fantasies like going to a strip club or watching one’s partner have sex with another person. Democrats, were more likely to favor fantasies that included domination and power dynamics, including BDSM.“The largest Democrat-Republican divide on the BDSM spectrum was in masochism, which involves deriving pleasure from the experience of pain.”
The GOP runs on a platform idolizing the nuclear family and, consequently, traditional notions of marriage. This means activities like extramarital affairs, orgies, and partner swapping are strictly off-limits, and that makes them exciting. It may explain why there are more Republican than Democrat members of Ashley Madison, the dating service for people already in relationships. Republicans are more likely to fantasize about strip clubs, cuckolding and other things of a more voyeuristic nature. In contrast, Democrats are a party that strives for greater social, economic, and political equality – and yet, they fantasize about masochism, bondage, and dominance-submission play. Some reckon it is the blurring of consent and imbalance of power in BDSM that makes it taboo, drgo exciting for Democrats.
So there is no clear consensus, but it does appear that those on the left and right are equally kinky, but just in somewhat different areas or preferences of kink. Having lived in both very conservative cities and states, I can attest that I've personally not noticed much difference based on that in relation to kinky fetish people, the numbers of munches, parties, or women wanting a good hard bare bottom spanking or a disciplinarian. I have no idea on what transpires in the LGBTQ community though as I am straight, but I presume the interest level is the same.

The same women in my videos and photos being spanked here, are written about in my books.

The book below is a lighthearted humorous little tome about sex in relationships. It's for fun, and not to be taken seriously. The world is quite intense these days, some humor often helps.
