If you're feeling like getting your Fifty Shades of Grey on but don't know where to even begin, today's your lucky day.

A new app, Whiplr, is "a messenger app with kinks." Basically, it works to connect users who want to explore the world of fetish without the fear of being judged or, you know, hurt.

You can create a profile (with a SFW pic, no n00dz here), message play partners (without giving away private details), and even find real-life events in your area.

The "kink" factor is sorted into categories based on what you're into or curious about—think sounds, behavior, or accessories. These help you match up with other potential messaging partners.

Because, as Luda would say, "I gotta kn-kn-kn-know what's your fan-ta-ta-sy."
