Hematolagnia, also known as ‘blood play’, has featured in my intercourse ever since I was a teenager - and so has loving like a Victorian Vampire. Once I’m in love, that’s it, I’ll adore you for eternity.
Before we delve in further, the sex and relationship expert in me must address the fact that blood play is considered an advanced and high-risk activity because blood can transmit diseases.
Risks include exposure to bloodborne infections, such as HIV, Hepatitis B or C, and other infections if tools or skin are not sterile.
For this reason, experienced kink communities emphasise explicit consent between all participants, sterile equipment and medical hygiene, education about bloodborne pathogens, and often learning safety practices similar to basic medical procedures.
I’m into blood play because I find excitement in the visual aspect of blood, the symbolism of intimacy, vulnerability, the taboo of it, and the intensity it adds to certain BDSM dynamics.
The first time I ever experienced blood play was when I was 18. It was a spontaneous matter; he cut his hand on the wooden headboard, and while deep inside me, I joked I should “drink it up like a vampire”.
“That would be fucking hot,” the guy I was hooking up with at the time said.

- "I haven't had sex in two years... yet I'm having better orgasms"
- "I only date doberman personalities. I want him to look like he could kill people"
He was a close friend, so I knew his history, but still, I should have been more careful. I was fortunate and never suffered any consequences as a result. I recommend you research blood play in depth before licking people’s blood.
The taste aroused me, and the feeling of dominance, which I don’t particularly like to be the dominant one in the bedroom, usually.
I only like to play the dominant one when it comes to blood play. I’d never let someone drink my blood; it just doesn’t appeal to me.
My best blood play hook-up was Halloween four years ago. I dressed up as a vampire, he slit his shoulder and let me have a sip while I bounced on him in cowgirl.
I’m also the author behind this best hook-up story, “My best hook-up I ever had... was with a witch who used me for a blood ritual” - which is coming out at Halloween, so stay tuned!
