what is alternative sexuality? What does it mean to be kinky?

We've already covered that it's perfectly natural/normal to be curious about sex, even at a young age. Similarly, it's natural to be curious about alternative sexualities such as kink, especially if you're coming across references to kink online and in popular media. However, a lot of what is out there about alternative sexuality and kink isn't accurate, and can even lead to harm.
