.The series co-creator, Jacky St. James, mentioned that she was unhappy with the way BDSM was portrayed in Fifty Shades of Grey, which she considers “passed off an abusive relationship as an honest interpretation of the BDSM lifestyle”. She hoped to create a more nuanced view of the BDSM world with the series. In an interview with GQ, she described the series as, “imperfect people in BDSM relationships.”The lead actress Ashlynn Yennie also echoed the creator’s sentiment saying, “Fifty Shades of Grey was not a correct portrayal of the type of sex that people practice. It made it seem like it was for people that were messed up or dark and it’s not at all.”She hoped that the show “can shatter that glass ceiling of false belief and show the world what it truly means to trust, communicate, and finally feel free to talk about what you want and don’t want sexually in a consensual and healthy way.”
