Bondage Blog

I never heard of The Nuns at the time, but back in the early aughts it appears they were a New York City “near-goth experience” post-punk band. They gave such a striking bondage/kink visual experience that, according to a feature article in Draculina #41 (2002), they were in talks with movie production outfit Pandora’s Bazaar to make a fetish movie called Maitresse de Satan.

I can’t find any evidence that the movie got made, but I did find a track on YouTube for an album they recorded under that same name.

Back when there used to be lots more big box bookstores with huge magazine racks and I was still in the habit of buying actual paper books and magazines, there was always a stylish fetish magazine called Secret. It was expensive and hard to find (I think most of the actual issues in my collection were bought used on eBay) but I’d see it for sale from time to time and admire it. But I haven’t been in a bookstore in over a year and I haven’t seen Secret in quite a bit longer than that. Whatever happened to it?

Well, a chance web search the other day landed me on the Secret magazine web page. And it turns out that the most recent issue (and from the sound of things, perhaps final) edition was #36, which came out in a limited edition in September 2011. The reason for the magazine’s decline are pretty much encoded in my first paragraph:

One year has passed and I was only able to produce one issue. What has happened? To be quite honest, my USA distributors didn’t pay me for the last two issues and I was almost broke, finished. Thanks to a reader, a fan, an admired of Secret Magazine, I was able to print this issue, but sadly enough, it was only printed at 1000 copies! A limited edition! A collectors item!

We were forced to reduce the print run of SECRET Magazine because nobody is buying it anymore. Again why? Probably because our readers now all have Internet, notepads, smart phones, where a quick fix is so easy, so fast, and so virtual! Sex, porn, fetish, rubber, leather, dominatrix, Mistresses…it’s all available online, for free, so people don’t buy quality products anymore. We have passed from the paper area to the digital world. Most of the magazines are online now. News travels at the speed of Face book pages, twitters, blogs, and so on, that paper publications are unable to follow this. It’s called evolution.

Fortunately there is some good news. The Secret publisher is still selling such issues as remain in print, and many others (it looks like about 17 issues) are available for free in .pdf format on this page. Enjoy!

Via Naked Protesters comes the mind-blowing news of an animal rights event in London last year where a cute female 24-year-old “student of social sculpture” submitted to a program of public mistreatment in a high street shop window that included force feeding while wearing an open-mouthed gag:

There’s plenty of fetish fuel in this story; in addition to the gagging and forced feeding, she got something painful squirted in her eyes, her head was partially shaved, and she got a lot of injections, as well as spending some time posing with all sorts of fake wires attached to her head as if she’d been captured by a barking-mad scientist.

There’s a genre of bondage activity I think of as “face bondage” that seems to focus on distorting a woman’s facial features. The exact nature of the fetish excitement is unclear to me, but I expect pain and humiliation and degradation factor into it, as well as taking away the ability to control what goes into tender orifices. This Japanese example is a fairly thorough and very representative sample of the genre:

If I have a minor little nose ring fetish (and it’s possible I do) I blame John Norman for it; the Gor books, for all their faults, got a lot of access to my erotic programming inputs at the age when those things are still malleable. It’s been a long time now, but I think it may have been Tribesmen of Gor in which Tarl Cabot got himself captured by Arab analogs and his girls got fresh nose piercings in the slave pens, making it pretty tough for them to resist being led around by the nose after that. Decades since I must have read that book, but I see this photo of Lorelei Lee crawling after her nose ring on a leash and it’s an instant flashback:

It’s no secret that Christian religion, in some of its forms, makes a fetish of submission. I was struck by this truth, however, when I stumbled over the following hymn:

Make Me A Captive, Lord

Make me a captive, Lord,
and then I shall be free.
Force me to render up my sword,
and I shall conqueror be.
I sink in life’s alarms
when by myself I stand;
imprison me within thine arms,
and strong shall be my hand.

My heart is weak and poor
until it master find;
it has no spring of action sure,
it varies with the wind.
It cannot freely move
till thou hast wrought its chain;
enslave it with thy matchless love,
and deathless it shall reign.

It’s a real hymn, Google it if you don’t believe me. But don’t try and tell me you haven’t seen those exact same sentiments, expressed in worse poetry, on the blogs of half a dozen different slavegirls.

Sure, just at the moment she’s distracted by that little rattan cane going tappity-tap on the sole of her foot. But I’ve got one word for you: “Rosebud!”

All you need is a squirt of lube, gentlemen.

What an amazing bondage posture.

Of course, it’s from the evil fetish geniuses at Hogtied. And you can see the same pose from other angles here.
