Kink.com was started in 1997 by bondage enthusiast, Peter Acworth, who was then a PhD student at Columbia University.
With 9 highly trafficked sites including Hogtied.com,
FuckingMachines.com and
WaterBondage.com, Kink.com has always prided itself on producing genuine, original and all exclusive fetish material and has an enormous archive of exclusive video and photo content.
Today Kink.com is dedicated to bringing you the most imaginative fetish material. Based in San Francisco, the production studio has 70 employees and occupies a 35,000 square foot studio completely outfitted with elaborate sets including a dungeon, barn, westling arena and a functioning bar and billiards room. Kink.com recently bought the historic Armory building in San Francisco. This 200,000 square foot reproduction Moorish Castle was built in 1912 and was used by the National Guard until 1976. It is full of period detail including cavernous dungeon-like basements, stone corridors, sweeping staircases, and a gigantic drill court with 90 ft ceilings spanning almost an acre. Kink.com will brand its products around this historic monument as well as using its interior for the production of its existing and new product lines. Long term plans also include forming the San Francisco Film Center by renting parts of the facility to mainstream movie companies. Further expansion to Los Angeles and Europe are also in planning stages.
Each of Kink.com’s unique websites is directed by a webmaster who is kinky. Each webmaster's passion is to bring their kink to life to deliver authentic fetish footage.
The models are never told to act or artificially struggle. BDSM is about respect and trust. When you watch a Kink.com movie, you are watching real BDSM-loving people play in this context.
We at Kink.com pride ourselves in the authentic reproduction of fetish activities enjoyed by those in the BDSM lifestyle. Kink.com has recently upgraded its offices to a licensed entertainment venue to host
Kink-community building events, BDSM educational seminars, fundraisers for sex-positive charities, and kink-outreach programs.
Future plans include DVD releases of content, scripted movies with mainstream appeal, and 5 new exciting sites for 2007.
Kink.com also recently launched a new documentary site, BehindKink.com, which goes behind the scenes of Kink.com.
