Slave Heat The Japanese Way
When John Norman would spend six pages obsessing about “slave heat” in his later Gor novels, I don’t think this is quite what he had in mind:

Greydancer, on being a bondage rigger:
I’ve had a lot of jobs. I’ve learned to kill as a marine, to heal as an emt, to fleece as an insurance salesman, to geek out as an Apple employee, to be funny as a teacher, to be bored as a data entry slave, all to put food on my table. As such things go, fulfilling a beautiful woman’s fantasies and helping her have multiple orgasms so that other people could watch it and have their own multiple orgasms…well, this is not a bad job to have.
When I was growing up, the phrase for things like that was “nice work, if you can get it.”
I have always enjoyed the bondage art by “Ashely” that appeared in a series of HOM story pamphlets back in the 1980s. Available now on Kinky Delight is a three-image series featuring the wayward young Lady Elizabeth and her unwilling adventures with an “Acme Butt Plug Kit”:

The Twisted Monk did a web interview recently in which he explained his “three strikes” procedure for dealing with snoopy strangers who want to know his business. This resonates with me because I deal with this all the time; people want to know what I do for a living but sometimes they don’t (you can just tell) really want to hear anything about bondage porn. But they keep asking the penetrating questions! Here’s Monk (and I have so been there):
TR: How do you explain what you do to strangers?
Monk: Eventually, everyone will ask that. Talk to someone long enough and the conversation will go down that path. Now for the most part I’m very open about what I do, however not everyone is too keen on the whole “sex industry” thing so I sometimes have to fudge a bit about such things. I suppose I could just out and out lie. Tell them that I am a “Drug Mule” or an “Image Consultant for the Moral Majority” perhaps? No, instead I prefer to play the “3 strikes and you’re out” game with them.
Take, for example, a recent conversation I had with an insurance sales person. Now she was a nice enough gal, a fifty-something mom who drove an absurdly large SUV, lived in the suburbs and probably considers “adventurous sex” to be fucking with the lights on, in any room other than the bedroom.
“Blah, blah, blah… so what do you do for a living?”
Strike one, give them a generic answer and then try to divert the conversation elsewhere.
“Me? Oh I have a small retail internet company, so tell me about this dental benefit again?”“Oh that is nice. What do you sell?”
Strike two, now I am trying to be nice here but you were not satisfied with my answer so I’ll give you a bit more and hope that settles it.
“Organic hemp products”“Really? What kind of products? ”
Strike three…
“I make and sell bondage rope to the sex industry.”
Several seconds of dumbstruck silence
“You what?!”
Ok honey, I tried, I honestly tried but now you asked for it.
“Bondage rope, you know so people can tie each other up and fuck? I supply most of the sex shops on the west coast and some of the best hardcore bondage websites in the industry. In fact I’m currently in negotiations with a major porn studio to supply rope for an upcoming series of videos.”That usually shuts them right up.
Kink Unlimited has some spectacular “bondage beginner” shoots available, featuring pretty young ladies enjoying their first-ever bondage experience. I am particularly charmed by Garotinha as she is forcibly committed to the considerable endearments of an enormous jacuzzi:

This amateur bondage gallery from Amateur Tied features a wife tied up and looking ever-so-slightly reproachful:
“Yes, dear, if you keep struggling like that, your panties will fall off.”
