(Austin, TX / May 27, 2021) — Premier women’s erotica site afterglow (xoafterglow.com) is turning the spotlight on Mistress Marley in a new article, ‘Whipping Yourself Into Shape: Building a Domme Persona’.

Marley, aka ‘The Chocolate Domme’, offers afterglow readers her unique insight into what it takes to become a professional Dominatrix, like focusing on overall personality and how to integrate it into the world of BDSM.

“Domme personalities can range from nurturing and encouraging to bratty and spoiled,” says Marley. “Personally, I consider myself a ‘Sadistic Sensualist’, meaning I will lure you in with my sensuality and femininity, but then I’ll release all of my rage,”

She also offers tips on putting together a ‘Domme Kit’. “A lot of novice Dommes think they have to break the bank to have a great kit, but this isn’t the case at all…. most basic kits can be purchased on Amazon and come with tools such as floggers, handcuffs, blindfolds and ball gags,”

Once adjusted to feeling comfortable with the tools, Marley says that practice makes perfect. “You never want to buy anything that’s above your skill or comfort level. Try asking a partner or friend who consents to being used for practice.”

ABOUT LILLY SPARKS:

Lilly Sparks is the founder of afterglow, a revolutionary porn company merging porn and sexual wellness and making steamy films focused on the pleasure of all participants. Sparks’ inspiration to start afterglow came from struggles in her own sex life. She longed to find resources to help her explore authentic pleasure but felt alone and ashamed.

Knowing she wasn’t alone on this journey, Sparks created afterglow to explore sexuality and support the unabashed enjoyment of sex. Prior to afterglow, Lilly was a serial entrepreneur with expertise in scaling disruptive brands, taking them from zero to millions of revenue.

During her down time, Lilly loves listening to music, being outdoors, and dancing… especially doing all three at once.
