* In movies: While BDSM activity appeared initially in subtle form, in the 1960s famous works of literature like ''[[Story of O]]'' and ''[[Venus in Furs]]'' were filmed explicitly. With the release of the 1986 film ''[[9½ Weeks]]'', the topic of BDSM was transferred to mainstream cinema. From the 1990s, cinematic representation of alternative sexualities, including BDSM, increased dramatically, as seen in documentary productions such as ''[[Graphic Sexual Horror]]'' (a 2009 film based on the website [[Insex]]), ''[[Kink (film)|Kink]]'' (a 2013 film based on the website [[Kink.com]]), and movies such as ''[[Fifty Shades of Grey (film)|Fifty Shades of Grey]]'' (2015) and its two sequels ''[[Fifty Shades Darker (film)|Fifty Shades Darker]]'' (2017) and ''[[Fifty Shades Freed (film)|Fifty Shades Freed]]'' (2018).
** The ''Fifty Shades'' movies have been criticised for conflating abusive activities with consensual BDSM activities. "A lot of what happens in the main relationship of Fifty Shades of Grey is domestic abuse, both physical and emotional, and for people whose entire understanding of BDSM now comes from jiggle balls and rooms of pain this is a dangerous misconception to foster."<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.theguardian.com/society/2012/aug/25/fifty-shades-submissive-sophie-morgan |title=I like submissive sex but Fifty Shades is not about fun: it's about abuse |date=2012-08-25 |work=Sexuality |publisher=[[The Guardian]] |access-date=2021-06-24 |archive-date=14 September 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210914133729/https://amp.theguardian.com/society/2012/aug/25/fifty-shades-submissive-sophie-morgan |url-status=live }}</ref>
