The principle “Everyone is different” is easily illustrated by attitudes towards sex. Each and everyone is turned on by their own things – and the list of them is much longer and more surprising than is commonly thought. Some people dress up as dogs and living dolls, some like hanging clothes, others buy used underwear. All this is done by completely ordinary people, no worse or better than others – the description of their hobbies may be shocking, but behind the unusual sex practices are hidden stories about vulnerability, overcoming fear and finding oneself. And also about how a society works in which puritanical conservatism and the echo of the sexual revolution coexist.

Journalist Milana Logunova devoted several years to studying all kinds of kinks and fetishes, without remaining an outside observer. In her book you will meet organizers of kinky parties, squirt masters, demisexuals, surrogate partners and other people who are already living in the 21st century. “The Fact” contains an insider and full of empathy look at the world of sexual preferences, non-standard identities and bold experiments, which once again confirms: it is normal to be different from others and to be as “weird” as you like.
