Bondage Blog

There are many many descriptions of what subspace is like, out there. But this one from Holly is a good one:

Then I’m tied, and he starts out with just his hands, running up and down the length of my body, warming me up, waking me up to the feeling in my skin. It’s sweet and sensual and gentle, and at the same time just a little frightening, knowing he’s priming me to fully feel what comes next.

What comes next is the flogger. The first time it lands on me it’s soft, just a dusting, soft flexible leather gently stroking down my back. The next time is not quite as soft. Soon the flogger is landing hard and fast on my shoulders, my back, my ass and thighs. It’s not truly painful–I’m not much into heavy pain–but it’s a constant pounding, a warm slap into my muscles each time the tails land on my skin.

And then–WHAM–I’m in subspace. It’s that strangely detached place I go when I’m high or heavily drunk, when I’m under hypnosis, and during intense sex; I’m aware of everything that’s going on and can think about it lucidly, but my reactions are not lucid and there’s a powerful sense of otherness to the experience, a folding in on myself, a shift to an emotional parallel universe. I’m nearly limp in the ropes, and aware of my limpness, but unable or unwilling to compose my body. I can sort of babble out words with great effort, but without that effort I just moan. For reasons I can’t possibly explain, it’s wonderful.

Cornucopia my ass … this project is turning into a Golconda of bondage links!

• Sometimes the bondage is strictly for function. Like when the girl simply can’t keep her hands out of the way of her spanking!
• Shackles! And the look on her face says “this is fun … but weren’t you supposed to take my clothes off before we did this?”
• A guy could cut himself on those protruding hipbones. Maybe once she’s untied, we should order out for sammiches?
• She’s wearing fuzzy handcuffs behind her back, while he’s got her hair in a two-handed grip to control her blowjob. Just a nice Friday night in, eh?
• How about some femdom art? She’s got a shirtless man chained up and she’s so happy about it, she can’t stop touching herself.
• You know the wooden horse riding game, where she’s perched on a device with a hard corner that cuts into her pussy? This guy’s got one that hangs from the ceiling. Kinky carpentry for the win…
• Kneeling in rope bondage, she opens her mouth as wide as she can…
• Dr. Faustus, your go-to guy for all sorts of erotic mad science, has been commissioning bondage art again. This time, some robots oversee an important girl-washing project.
• Handcuffed in bra and blue jeans. Simple easy fun.
• Simple rope bondage. But why does she look so eager to be untied?
• She huddles, shivering, on the floor of a prison shower, as the guard mercilessly hoses her down with cold water…
• He put her in the dreaded comfy chair. So why doesn’t she look comfy?
• It would be hard to find space for this. But it’s really the best-designed flogging frame I’ve ever seen — a grid of ropes to support her body weight, and wooden ankle stocks to keep her in place.
• Hardware store threaded C-clamps make great nipple clips.
• You would think that when she’s wearing the ring gag, he’d be able to get his jism in her mouth, not all the way up on her forehead. You would think.
• Handcuffed to the prison cell bars, gagged, and caned. Just another day in jail!
• Gagged, handcuffed … and vacuuming floors. The life of a sex slave: not always rose petals and chocolate.
• She wanted a nap, and she got put to bed for one. But, she’s aggrieved to report, the handcuffs from wrists to ankles make it hard to get comfortable.
• It was just another run-of-the-mill BDSM date until the man brought his wife into the room … and she was carrying an Arrow staple gun. Yowzers!
• She’s roped to the bed with her ass in the air, and a man with an enormous cock is walking toward her. Docking procedure, INITIATED!

People who like to mix their paganism with their kink may especially enjoy this infographic on a sort of pentagram rope tie:

I found it on a tumblr, but I recognize the “Veterinarian” artist credit; he’s the guy who is famous for his puppy play artwork featuring women sealed into elaborate dog suits, and then (sometimes) forced to … shall I say, “interact?” … with real dogs.

I occasionally come across people who ask me how they can get their partners to do BDSM without talking about it directly. While I appreciate and sympathize with both their need to do BDSM, and their anxiety about talking about it — I just can’t get behind the premise of the question. The fantasy of a sexual relationship that is totally instinctive and perfect without any effort is just that — a fantasy. And moreover, while you might be able to get some BDSM experiences without actually having a conversation about BDSM, direct sexual communication is not a threat to your sexual experiences — it can improve them.

Easy to say, not always so easy to do. What makes the blog post this comes from great, though, is that you just read one of the concluding paragraphs. The meat of the post is several case studies, examples from her own life of how to do BDSM sexual communication with new partners. Lots of useful information there on how to have those potentially awkward conversations.
