Origin and Usage

The word "kinky" originated from the Dutch word "kink" which means a twist or curl. It was first recorded in the English language in the mid-19th century. The term is most commonly used to describe unconventional sexual preferences or behaviour, particularly those involving bondage, domination, and sadomasochism (BDSM). It is also used to describe hair that is tightly curled or twisted in an unusual way. In recent years, the word has also been used to describe unconventional or unusual behaviour or ideas that are seen as strikingly new or original.
