Bondage Blog

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!

Bondage Blog is not your safety Nazi. There are other bondage sites for that. But some things are fuckin’ basic. Among these: when you’ve got somebody tied up, don’t leave them alone. Just don’t. It can lead to death for them and deserved prison for you, even in a relatively compassionate jurisdiction like Canada.

If she’s got a “tied up and abandoned” fetish, there are ways to fake it. Sensory deprivation for her, misdirection, a hidden webcam monitored from the next room, a low-tech peep hole in the wall, be creative if ya gotta. But be safe. Bondage is supposed to be fun, and death is the ultimate bummer.

When they took her out of her basement cell this morning, she hadn’t had a drink of water since “lunch” eighteen hours before.

That was seven hours ago. It’s July, and this wing of the crumbling mansion has no air conditioning. And here she’s been in the cage ever since. Has Master come to give her a drink? Eh, not so much:

You’d cry, too:

Back in the sexual dark ages when you couldn’t just buy nipple clamps at every corner drug store and bodega, kinky people had to improvise. But bobby pins were everywhere, and they got the nipple-clamping job done:

I imagine he’s saying to her:

Don’t worry, girl. After I’m done introducing myself to you this afternoon, you and I are going to go for a nice long hike through the forest. My cabin’s about fifteen miles back in the bush, over a couple of ridges and up a rocky canyon where nobody ever goes. It’s a shame you lost your shoes when I pulled you out of your car, but they were pretty useless for walking in the woods anyway. It’s all for the best, though. By the time you get where we are going, your pretty bare feet might be a little sore, so I don’t think you’ll be trying to run away any time soon…”
