Introduction to Bondage / Restraint:
Complete selection of Bondage / Restraint items
Bondage play goes by several different names—B&D (bondage and dominance), S&M (sadism and masochism), and D&S (dominance and submission) to name a few. While these three have various important differences, often a common denominator is the use of bondage to derive sexual pleasure. Most commonly, this involves the use of handcuffs, ropes, or other devices that are used to “immobilize” the one participant (often referred to as the “bottom” as in top and bottom) who wishes to be dominated.
Many couples are interested in spicing up their sex lives and are often curious about bondage play yet slightly intimidated by the thought. Essentially, bondage play is role playing and is a harmless and satisfying way for lovers to connect. In a controlled environment when both parties fully trust one another, bondage, domination, submission, etc. are intensely satisfying ways for two people to enjoy one another sexually. The key factor here is trust—without it the experience can be uncomfortable.
While the actual bondage devices such as handcuffs, belts, and rope are obvious, it is the accessories that can really add a different element to the experience. Items such as whips, slappers, paddles, blindfolds, swings and others help shape the experience into what you want. Most of these devices are used to elicit degrees of pain that are intensely pleasurable to some people. In the context of sex though, the “pain” is actually more like intense stimulation than something that hurts.
Many bondage situations will begin with gentle spanking with a hand or light whips and slowly progress into heavier, deeper sensations. Just like good sex builds up slowly from a gentle rhythm to an explosive crescendo, bondage play works in a linear pattern from beginning to end. If you are interested in pursuing bondage play as a means to spice up your sex life, try several different products and experiment with different techniques. Soon, you and your partner will find the right combination that will reinvigorate your sex life. |
