That is, in short, the invigorating feeling that comes about during <\/span>handcuffed sex<\/span>. So, let\u2019s go where not many people dare to\u2026 the wonderful world of bondage.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Bondage Play?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Bondage play in sexual relationships, is the <\/span>\u2018B\u2019<\/span><\/i> in <\/span>BDSM<\/span><\/a> (Bondage, Dominance, Sadism, Masochism). It\u2019s when one partner physically restrains another using various tools and props to create sexual suspense, including a power dynamic and the illusion of total control.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why Are People Turned on By Bondage Play?<\/span><\/h3>\n

When it comes to bondage, there are two different roles – that is, the <\/span>restrainer<\/span><\/a> and the restrainee. <\/span><\/p>\n

Oftimes, this power dynamic is known as a dominant and a <\/span>submissive<\/span><\/a> or slave. But what is so appealing for either of these roles?<\/span><\/p>\n

For dominants:<\/b> The idea of controlling another person\u2019s body as well as their mind is what drives dominants. Despite the control aspect, the dominant is responsible of taking care of their sub\/slave\u2019s pleasure and well-being before, during, and after play time.<\/span><\/p>\n

For submissives or slaves: <\/b>The idea of giving up full control and being \u2018helpless\u2019 can be a huge turn on for some. They submit themselves fully to their dominant, and experience a slew of sexual acts and commands (that they\u2019ve <\/span>given consent<\/span><\/a> to) such as edging<\/a>, <\/span>forced orgasms<\/span><\/a>, chastity, and more. <\/span><\/p>\n

But in a huge plot twist, it is actually the sub or slave that has all the power. This is because it is their consent that controls what the dominant will or won\u2019t do (along with a safe word).<\/span><\/p>\n

What Sex Toys & Equipment can Be Used for Bondage Play?<\/span><\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re new to the world of bondage, you may think that it\u2019s a fairly straightforward act that requires a pair of handcuffs attached to a bedpost. <\/span><\/p>\n

But in actuality, there are a number of <\/span>toys and props can that be used to restrain someone<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
