Spanks: Let the swiping begin

Spanks EN Image.png

Think of Spanks as your kinky radar. It’s where you swipe through profiles and send a little signal that says “Hey, I’m into what you’re offering.” When someone Spanks you back, boom—you have crush. That’s when the real fun can begin.

Using Spanks is simple: swipe right to show interest, swipe left to pass. It’s casual, low-pressure, and a great way to browse the community. Everyone swipes at their own pace, whether you’re looking for your next play partner, a kinky friend, or someone to explore fantasies with for the first time.

On FET, you’ll find Spanks right in the main menu under 'Search'.  Tap the Spanks icon on the top left to open the swipe view. When tapping on a user that pops up, you'll have access to their complete profile description. Each profile comes with tags for kinks, limits, orientation, and relationship status—so don’t just swipe on the photo. Read the details. We’re a community built on consent, communication, and shared interests, after all.

Feeling adventurous? Start exploring and you might just find a fellow rope bunny, brat tamer, or latex enthusiast just around the corner.

 

 

Search: Get specific, Get connected

Want to find someone in your city? A Dom who speaks your language? A switch who shares your love of foot play? Missed out on giving Spanks to someone specific but remember their user name? That’s where the Search feature comes in.

The Search tool is built to help you narrow things down and get more intentional about your connections. You can filter by:

It’s more than just finding someone hot—it’s about finding someone right. If you’ve got specific needs, hard limits, or just want to skip straight to people who match your energy, Search will become your best friend.

You can also sort your results—by last login, age, distance, or who has a verified profile—so your feed is always tailored to what you’re into.

Find Search in the navigation bar and tap on 'Kinksters'. Pro tip: save your filters so you don’t have to start from scratch each time.

Live Chat: Keep it real-time

Now let’s talk about how to connect. Once you’ve matched or found someone intriguing, you’ll want to slide into their DMs. That’s where our Inbox and Live Chat come into play.

Your Inbox is your private messaging space. You can send messages, pictures (if the vibe’s right), and see who’s replied. But here’s where FET steps it up: Live Chat. It’s our real-time chat room feature where you can talk to multiple kinksters at once, then whisper to someone privately when the chemistry clicks.

Want to test the waters? Drop a message in a chat room and see who bites. Ready to get more intimate? Whisper and get personal—just the two of you.

The Live Chat can be accessed right from the Inbox. If someone’s active and online, you’ll see it. It’s a fun way to be spontaneous and start building connections instantly.

 

Don’t forget: Verify and customize your profile

Before you go too far down the rabbit hole, make sure you’re setting yourself up for success. Verified profiles tend to get more messages and matches—and it only takes a minute to do.

Head to Settings > Get Verified to upload your verification photo (you + your username + today’s date). It won’t be shared—just a way to show others that you’re real, and ready.

While you’re at it, complete your profile. Add your favorite kinks, your limits, your relationship status, and a few good photos. It’s not just about how you look—it’s about how you connect.

And remember: our platform is built on SSC—Safe, Sane, and Consensual. Being upfront about who you are and what you want is sexy as hell.

 

Explore Even More

Now that you know the basics, don’t stop there. FET is packed with other features:

  • Photo Challenges to express your creativity
  • Kinky Ads for stating your desires clearly
  • Treasure Hunts to spice up your journey
  • A BDSM Test to discover your playstyle
  • Kinky Gifts to surprise and delight

Every tap, swipe, and message brings you closer to new connections, new discoveries, and new ways to enjoy your sexuality.

    Is 2000’s-era sexy chat room energy still out there?

    I used to love going on chat rooms when I was in my ***s and twenties, but I worry that for some reason that’s become a thing of the past! That’s why I came to Fetish.com - other channels just feel either to commercialized or like there’s not enough of an online community aspect to it and instead there’s too much pressure to appear at in person events to begin to grow a network amongst other sex interested ***rs. What do you think, is this online sex positive chat still a thing? 20 Likes 10 Replies· 16 days ago

    Video chat first to avoid being Catfished?

    As the title states, I'm genuinely baffled why people don't video chat first to avoid being 'Catfished'. And then, once they have been, they feel the need to jump on a forum to complain that they've been 'Catfished'. I'm on several Kinky forums, I won't say which ones, but recently, there's been a surge of people complaining about being 'Catfished'. I'll mention two such cases here, but obviously without names. On one, a guy had driven about 100 miles to meet a lady only to be stood up - she never showed, she then blocked him on all the social media they had previously used to converse, and he didn't know what she actually looked like. He said he had pictures that she sent of what she claimed to look like, but, he was now wondering if they were really of her! On another, a young lady complained that when she went to meet the guy, he turned out to be 30 years older and erm.. 30lbs heavier than the pictures he had sent her. In both cases, after some questioning, they both admitted that they hadn't video chatted with their prospective paramours beforehand. This naturally lead me to ask them why they hadn't, and, why they'd then decided to come on to a forum to illicit some form of sympathy for their predicament as a result of their... shall we say, lack of preparedness. Needless to say, they got quite defensive and tried to justify their actions... which failed to impress. or explain. In this day and age, with all the video tech around and individual safety concerns, to me, it seems inconceivable that anyone wouldn't use this feature before agreeing to a physical meet up, be they male, female, straight, gay, bi, or anyone else in between. But then, maybe I'm being too harsh, maybe this is a normal thing for some of you, if so, please explain why?... Does it add to the sense of adventure not knowing what they actually look like? Are people just being lazy and hoping for the best? Are they averse to video chats? Someone please explain this phenomenon. Like I stated earlier, it appears to be on the rise. Conversely, if like me, you always video chat before a physical meet up, would you mind extolling the virtues as to why... in your particular case? Somehow, I don't think I'm going to get many replies, but I'll be pleasantly surprised if I do. 44 Likes 35 Replies· 27 days ago

    Does anyone else not like being automatically put into the lobby when hitting the Chat section?

    This started a few days ago and I find it quite annoying. It was the same time that the 'North America" and "Europe" rooms appeared. I do not want to be put into the chat lobby. It also keeps wanting to put be back into the lobby after I leave. 24 Likes 5 Replies· 11 days ago

    What’s Behind the Profile?

    What’s something people assume about you from your FET profile that’s completely wrong? 23 Replies· 2 months ago

    Etiquette on profile viewing

    It's been an incredibly common reoccurring theme of individuals perceiving someone viewing their profile as some sort of consent or greenlight to skip straight to disgusting, disrespectful, or even predatory messaging despite posted limitations. It's simple to pass and move on, but, that becoming the normal behavior is probably not healthy for the community. I thought this could potentially be a good discussion point for newer individuals that haven't quite figured out what should be unspoken etiquette. Yes, there will always be the ones who lack basic human decency. It isn't an attempt to fix that. I am very open to hearing the other side of the argument making this approach acceptable, even if it will likely never fall into my perspectives on kink. Hard discussions can lead to a safer community. 56 Likes 50 Replies· 2 months ago
