Gap pattern

Ice Outside, Sugar Addict Inside: Lash (cold) on the outside, Honey (sweet) on the inside

“Ice Outside, Sugar Addict Inside” is one of SM Personal Test's gap patterns between your Public face (the play style others see) and your Hidden face (the desire you feel). It describes people who are Lash (cold) on the outside, Honey (sweet) on the inside.

Lash (cold)Honey (sweet)Temperature

What is this pattern?

In public you come across as cold and rule-bound, yet when you fantasize alone you want a soft "good job" and a hug after the punishment. People may think you show no mercy, while inside you might be waiting for a hand on your head. The sweetness behind the chill is your secret ingredient.

When it tends to show

This side tends to show up when you want to lavish "good job" and pampering, given or received, such as after someone has taken the whole punishment or when things got a little too stern.

Tips for living with it

Try putting the urge to be pampered into just a few words. "Praise me when we are done" is plenty. A cool customer who knows how to ask for sweetness is a reward in itself for the other person.

How it is detected

You fall into this pattern when Temperature alone switches from Lash (cold) in the public face to Honey (sweet) in the hidden face. We only call it a flip when the estimated probability that the directions truly differ is 75% or higher; the other three axes keep their direction.

How types change in this pattern

What is your kink type?

From ordinary personality questions, we expose your Public face (the play style others see) and your Hidden face (the craving you keep to yourself) on the same axes. Holding the rope or tied up in it? Doing the teasing or begging for it? Adults only (18+), free, no sign-up, about 3 minutes for the quick test.
